-1SCORPIUS MALFOY:
1) Scorpius wasn't your typical Malfoy. Some of his physical qualities were like the rest of his family's. He had the silver-blond hair and the blue tint to his eyes. But there were differences too. His eyes were soft and warm and had an overwhelming gray tone to them. He kept his hair short, combed to the side of his head with a little bit of spike in the front. He was handsome, but in a softer, more classic way then the rest of his family was.
2) The differences weren't only physical either; Scorpius tried his hardest not to act like his family. He wasn't mean-spirited; people often automatically assumed that because he was a Malfoy, he was a scum bag. His name brought a lot of prejudices. He tried his hardest to get rid of them, but there would always be those people who would ignore who he was inside and hate him because of his name.
3) And yet, there would always be that part of him that thought he deserved to be treated like scum. His dad, his grandparents, the whole lot of them, they all helped Voldemort try to take over the world. Scorpius always felt like there was some truth behind every rude comment against him.
4) Scorpius was constantly shocking everyone. He was a Slytherin, but he hated fighting and bullying and anything of that sort. He astounded the world after he walked away from a fist-fight in the train on the way to Hogwarts his first year. After he and Albus Potter learned that they shared the same birthday on that same train ride, they became instant best friends. The whole world was shocked yet again by how different Scorpius was from the rest of his family.
5) After people got over the fact that Al and he were best friends, and realized that he wasn't as bad as they thought, they started to let up on him. It helped to have the whole Weasley/Potter clan on your side. Especially after a very stern Hugo Weasley, who albeit being young was extremely intimidating, gave each of the Weasley boys a good talking to. It took Scorpius forever to figure out what made Hugo on his side, until one day he realized it; it was Rose.
6) Rose. They had been friends since the first day of class when they got paired together in Charms; they were the two best students in the class. He instantly liked her. She was cute and funny and friendly towards him; she didn't care who he was or who his family was or what anybody said about him or what she'd heard about him. All she cared about was how well they got along, just the two of them.
7) Scorpius came alive around Al and Rose. Around most other people he was quiet and self-conscious. He tried not to bring attention to himself, tried to blend into the background. But around them, his best friends, he was wild and funny. He had a hilarious sense of humor and told the best stories.
8) Story telling was one of the things that he was good at but also enjoyed it. Lots of times, after they had started dating, Rose would read a novel, and then she would give it to Scorpius, who would finish it as well. Then they would sit in front of the fire until late at night, as he retold her the story. She would snuggle up against him, one of the only public displays of affection she would give him, and look up at him, entranced with his words, while he animatedly recounted the story to her. She always said that she liked his version better then the actual book.
9) Scorpius had been terrified the first time he met Ronald Weasley, Rose's father. She and Scorpius hadn't started dating yet, but everyone knew that they liked each other a lot, and that they probably would start going out. But Ron wasn't even that bad. All he did was take Scorpius into the other room and give him a good talking to. He pretty much said, "Hurt my baby girl and you die." Scorpius was fine with that. It was much less severe then he had been expecting.
10) Scorpius liked being quiet. He liked thinking and pondering and wondering and considering every choice before he decided and made a decision. He never was a good decision maker. It took him forever to make a choice. But he always took his time and never rushed himself. In some cases, it hurt him. But most of the time, it paid off. His favorite example is when he took three months to choose Rose's engagement ring. It paid off big time; she said yes.
