I never really liked her but I thought it would be an interesting piece. I obviously do not own anything... I mean I'm not even British.
Ten things you never knew about Lavender Brown
1) She really hated the color lavender, she favored shades of red, but her mother would never have named her Scarlett.
2)Her sister, Violet, was a squib and cried the day Lavender received her letter, claiming that it was not fair that Lavender got to be magic. From that day on, Lavender was ashamed of her magical ability, and secretly wished that she was the squib, so Violet could be happy.
3) Seamus was her 'first' everything; first boyfriend, first kiss, first love, first…. So when she sits across from him in the lawyer's office, dividing their assets, she realizes how ironic it is that he is her first ex husband, as well.
4) The necklace that she gave to Ron in sixth year, the one that said My Sweetheart, was actually given to her by Justin Finch-Fletchley before Christmas holidays, and she'd been so eager to be rid of the present that she gave it to her boyfriend, who would never wear it.
5) Her patronus was a ferret, slightly embarrassed; she pretended to have never mastered the charm, afraid that people might associate it with Draco Malfoy.
6) She idolized Rita Skeeter, even after she was found to be a fraud, because how could she not idolize someone with so much style? In later years, it was Skeeter's methods that Lavender based her articles on, and she was overjoyed when Rita praised her column; Lavender Knows Best.
7) Her father was killed in a muggle shoot out, when she was nine years old, and she can still hear the policman's voice as he told her mum. She can still see the funeral, where her mother and sister cried, and she can still feel her legs pumping, when that night she ran and ran and ran, away from the horrible truth. Her Uncle Charlie found her, passed out from exhaustion on the side of the road, and took her home; she would never run again.
8) She loved all her children, but when Hermione was born, she found that parents could play favorites. Young Hermione, named after the woman who saved her mother from Fenrir Greyback, was the epitome of everything Lavender had never been, and her mother loved her for it.
9) When Lavender was seventeen, she went to a muggle party with her sister, and tried her first cigarette. It burned her throat and left a terrible taste in her mouth, but that didn't stop her from continuing the habit. Seamus always said that she was drawn to things that were bad for her. She finally quite during her pregnancy with Hermione, she was done taking risks that effected the ones she loved.
10) The week after the Final Battle, she and Parvati holed themselves up in their dorm, refusing to leave and refusing to speak, it was both the most miserable and happiest time of Lavender's life.
