( SIBLINGS ) : Daphne Greengrass, sixteen, sister, slytherin
( OTHERS ) : no one important
( HISTORY ) :

Astoria was born the youngest daughter of Flynn and Amelia Greengrass. Being the youngest, people expect that Astoria was spoiled rotten, but that really wasn’t the case. Her older sister Daphne was always spoiled by their parents as she was their first-born and Astoria was the failed attempt at a boy. Of course, that doesn’t mean that her parents hated her or anything like that, no they just looked down on young Astoria for not being the boy that they wanted, something that Astoria has had constant reminders of through her entire life. From a young age Astoria looked up to Daphne, seeing her as the kind of girl that she wanted to be like, mostly because of the fact that her parents at least showed her some form of affection when they mostly ignored her.

When her sister went away to Hogwarts, Astoria was sad as it meant that she would be stuck at home with her parents. Although she was able to do whatever she wanted, Astoria craved the attention of her parents, sometimes going out of her way to misbehave, but all that got her was her parents ignoring her even more and the occasional beating every now and then although her parents preferred not to do that to their children because of the fact that bruises were easily seen by the people around them whereas things such as emotional abuse wasn’t which was why they liked to remind Astoria about what a failure she was. Astoria’s happiest times were when her sister came back from Hogwarts and saved her from being alone with their parents.

When she reached the age of eleven, it was definitely the happiest time for Astoria, it meant that she would finally get away from her parents and she would be able to spend more time with Daphne. Her parents made sure to tell her when she was leaving though that if she wasn’t in Slytherin like the rest of them then she was even more of a failure. Slytherin wasn’t exactly the house that Astoria wanted to be in, but it was the one she got in the end and she was content with it as it meant that at least her parents couldn’t hate her for that as well and that she would at least be with her sister which was the one thing that she really wanted the most.

Although not completely the kind of girl that everyone expected to be in Slytherin, Astoria fit in rather well thanks to Daphne. She did well with her classes apart from Herbology and she tended to take offence when people tried to brand her as nothing more than a future Death Eater. When it came to the little fights between Slytherins and Gryffindors, Astoria preferred to take the neutral approach not wanting either side to dislike her, but mostly because she couldn’t really decide what side she best suited and not wanting to choose a side that was against her beloved sister.

This wasn’t right; this wasn’t how things were meant to be. According to everyone at the school Harry Potter should have won, but alas it wasn’t to be. She hadn’t chosen sides in this war; she had found it rather pointless. If she had agreed with Potter then her parents and her sister would have disowned her, but neither did she agree with everything that Voldemort had been for. Of course, she was smarter than to voice her opinion it, after all look what happened to Potter, Weasley and Granger, they had all voiced their opinions and it hadn’t ended that well for any of them.

Sighing softly the brunette turned her gaze down to the ground, what they had done to Hogwarts just wasn’t right. It was a place to be respected, those wizards that had helped to destroy this place had been students here. Everything they knew they had learned here, or at least most of what they had learned. It upset her to think about how easily they could destroy something that had helped so any people whether they were pureblood or muggleborn. She doubted that any of them would be able to say that they hadn’t actually learned anything from this place, that it meant nothing.

Of course, there was one thing that was bugging Astoria more than the destruction of Hogwarts and that was her sister Daphne. Since the fighting had finished she hadn’t seen the other girl and it worried her. The older girl was the one in her family that cared the most about her and she didn’t want anything to happen to her. There was of course the idea that she had managed to escape, their parents had sent for them, but Astoria knew that they cared more about Daphne then they did her, she was the black sheep of the family, the Ravenclaw in a house of Slytherins and her parents just couldn’t accept that fact, and as much as it hurt her to know that she wasn’t as accepted in their house, she had used it to better herself.

Heading back to the great hall where the remaining students and professors were getting healed by Madam Pomfrey, her dark eyes were sad as she saw some of her friends that had lost their lives, or even strangers that had lost their lives for what they had believed in. She couldn’t decide if it was brave or foolish, there had been little chance that a mere boy would be able to defeat the Dark Lord, the man who had killed so many people to get to where he was. Of course there was no foolishness in faith, just misguided bravery. It was a conflicting idea, while there were views either way, she supposed that it depended on what your ideas of brave and foolish were in the end.

Heading over to Madam Pomfrey, she gave the older woman a strained smile ”Is there anything I can do to help?” she asked her, her voice soft as a few tears filled her eyes at the sight of one of her friends lying next to the healer. This was one of the reasons why she wanted to become a healer, wanting to help those that needed it and deserved it. Hearing the other woman telling her to give some of the students a small healing potion, she nodded her head slightly and headed off to some of them, composing herself from the tears that she had felt earlier. If she was going to help Madam Pomfrey she needed to be able to deal with all of this, because things could only get worse from now on couldn’t they.

Giving her first ‘patient’ what she hoped was a reassuring smile, she didn’t look at them too closely as she looked down at the potion in her hands. As she stood there fussing with them, she heard a soft voice ”Tor...” Glancing up quickly, her eyes widened slightly as she realised that her ‘patient’ was in fact her sister ”Daphne!” she cried out, fear and sorrow in her voice as she threw her arms around the one person that meant the world to her ”I was so worried about you” she said with a faint laugh, holding onto her tightly ”I was worried about you too Tor.” she heard her sister say. Grinning at her slightly, she wiped a few stray tears out of her eyes as she looked down at the potions again ”Take this one Daph.” she said, noticing the wounds on her sister ”I think Madam Pomfrey said that this one would work well for injuries like that.” she knew the think part of that wouldn’t be too reassuring, but she knew that her sister would trust her enough to actually take the potion, or at least she hoped that she would.
