Victoire Renée Weasley
1.) She hates her hair. It's a pretty shade of reddish-gold, but it is too thick and too curly and she can never get it to lay right on her head.
2.) She used to steal things from her sister's bedroom, late at night and when Dom was out of the house. Part of this was jealousy – Dominique never had trouble with her looks, or her weight, or with boys, or with anything that Victoire did, and she wanted to make her feel bad, just a little bit. Dominique still does not know that she did this, and Victoire only feels vaguely guilty.
3.) She's proud of being the first Weasley sorted into Ravenclaw, thank you very much. She's also proud that her baby brother, Louis, followed her into the House of Genius. But still, she feels little sad at the fact that she never got to wear her dad's red-and-yellow Gryffindor scarf and Dominique did.
4.) She turns into a right bitch, as Dominique so aptly puts it, at every full moon the way some girls do around their periods. For years, she didn't know why, until her Aunt Hermione took her aside and explained the concept of "sympathy pains" to her.
5.) It's because of her Aunt Hermione that she decided to become a Healer. If she acted like that around the full moon, then certainly other people did to, and she wanted to try and find a way to fix that. Because really, turning into a raving lunatic once a month is not the best way to spend one's time.
6.) She started smoking as a way to make her parents angry. She quit because she didn't want her kids to do the same.
7.) She really, really likes The Ramones. A lot. It doesn't hurt that the music seems to mortally offend her mother more than Nana Molly's Celestina Warbeck records, but it's definitely a plus.
8.) The best birthday she ever had was when she turned ten. After the customary Remembrance Day cervices, her father took her to see Beauty and the Beast at a Muggle theatre in London, and then out to dinner at a little Italian restaurant. He still calls her Belle as an affectionate pet name, and she can't help but feel just a little smug at the fact that he never did this for Dominique.
9.) She doesn't have all the ever-present Veela-charm that her mother and sister seem to have, but sometimes, with just a look, she can turn a boy into a gibbering mess. It doesn't work all the time, but when it does, Victoire gets a sick sense of satisfaction from it.
10.) She loves Teddy with all her heart; more than she thought she could ever love another person. But if one more person makes a crack about how they've been "made for each other" since the age of three or five or whatever, she's going to fly into a murderous rage.
No, really. She means it this time.
