Do you think you know your characters? This month, think again.
In July's Pin-Post challenge, all characters are completely flipped, turning them into the complete opposites of the people they usually are. How will they interact? Who will they become?
You decide. Notes:- Since every character is completely different, backstories and past situations that happened in the roleplay may either change completely or occur similarly, only under different circumstances.
- Characters are still all inside their own universes.
- Physical appearance may or may not change, based on your own preference.
- Anything not listed here is free to explore-- be creative!
- This is an exercise designed to explore your characters by exploring exactly what they can't be.

Bianca Vargas hesitated, her fingertips brushing the door of the Hufflepuff commons before carefully pushing it open, stepping outside. Oh, there's too many people. Maybe I should just stay inside for a bit longer... Still, her growling stomach seemed to grow louder as she turned away from the hallway. After a silent argument with herself, she began to make her way down the hall, gaze trained hard on the floor.

Venus, tall and graceful and very much a human, glanced around coldly as she strode down the street. She was currently looking for her cat. Where have you gone, little witch? She could feel prickling sparks just below her skin, growing in intensity with each step. On some level she nearly hoped that her cat had been stolen- that way she'd get to stretch her metaphorical magical muscles.

Jacob strode past Venus, making sure to rudely push her aside with his own shoulder. Behind him, head lowered and tail between his legs, scurried his familiar, a small dog named Judas.

Vindictively, Venus sent out a small ice spell. Not large enough to be noticed by any nosy passersby, but definitely enough to ruin any delicate components Jacob might be carrying.
She smiled immediately, fantasizing about all the possibilities this had for spell-ruining. She'd come to view Jacob as something of a rival in magic, and nothing would make her happier than if something just blew up in his face.
Of course, it was possible that he wasn't carrying anything at all. But in the very least, the chilling spell would likely make his familiar uncomfortable for a few hours. Slightly, irritatingly too cold.
She had to formulate a more extensive revenge plan later, Venus decided. As soon as she found her cat.

Leo grinned at his reflection in the mirror, sweeping back his hair. Today's going to be a good day. He shrugged on a thin shirt, baring his arms and appreciating the way the muscles along them broadened as he lifted them.

Jacob grumbled as the air around him became much chillier. He pulled up the lapels of his coat around his neck, aiming a quick kick to Judas's side. "Go a little faster, will you? That she-beast just laid a spell on me."

Bianca gasped as she noticed Leo just around the corner, admiring himself in the mirror at the end of the hall. She took a second to try to straighten out her skirt and messy hair-- why oh why did she keep forgetting to brush it-- before hurrying past him. She'd had a crush on him since she was a little girl. Maybe he'd actually notice her today. The thought sent her heart racing.

Tessa sat at the Gryffindor table, a shy smile on her face as she listened in on the conversation around her. She passed a box of Every Flavoured Beans to her left, saying nothing as she offered the confectionary to her friends. Their silent thanks were enough to keep her content as she tried to generate interest in the latest gossip.

Nicolas took the box of candy, murmuring a distant-sounding thanks before turning back to Giovanni. The blind Gryffindor was chewing on bubblegum, his plate empty as he discussed the latest gossip flying around the school, feet propped up on the table. "I heard that Ricardo tried to fly on a broomstick the other day, at the Quidditch Pitch. Fell on his face. I wish I wasn't blind, so I could have seen that blithering idiot bumble around and make a fool of himself."

Leo turned from the mirror, his gaze passing easily over the girl in the corner. It settled on the door, which had recently opened to allow another student in. "Hey, Rita. You're looking particularly gorgeous today."
The girl blushed, fumbling with her words to come up with a suitable response. All she could manage was a half-joking "get stuffed" before she headed to the fireplace to set down her bag. Arrogant little rat.
Tessa winced, leaning forwards a little in her seat. "Oh, I hope he's okay! Do you know if he was hurt at all?"

Bianca felt herself flush, but merely sighed, turning back to the ground. Of course he never notices you. You're ugly and everyone else isn't. Oh, I wish Elizabeth were here to talk to me. She's always there to talk...
Giovanni shrugged, glancing in Tessa's general direction. "Who knows? I hope so. Maybe he broke his nose, so his voice sounds all weird now. Maybe that'll keep him from being such a know-it-all," he sneered, lip curling. "Always being such a kiss-up. Puts a bad taste in my mouth."
Nicolas rolled his eyes, placing his hands on his head. "I'm too hung over for this. If you want to know so bad, ask him. He should be in the library like he always is."

Just as she was about to cast a more permanent revenge spell on Jacob and his dog, Venus caught sight of her cat.
Thea pranced through the street with her tail shot straight up in the air, exuding a sense of carefree confidence. She held a mouse in her mouth.
"Please tell me that's not someone's familiar," Venus hissed exasperatedly.

Judas, from behind Jacob, glanced at Thea. Oh, goodness. I hope that's not a familiar. That would just be... awful... He could feel himself begin to shake with emotion. He willed himself to stop, knowing that Jacob would beat him half to death if he noticed.

Leo just smirked, collapsing into his claimed seat by the window and putting his feet up onto the table. Everything about his demeanour was relaxed and confident, and he surveyed the room as if he owned it.
Tessa pursed her lips, affronted by his attitude. "Nic, I think you should drink some water." It was a mild suggestion, and one born completely of concern for him. "I'm going to go and find Ricardo then."

"Oh, don't mind him," Giovanni snickered, elbowing who he thought was Nicolas-- not that he really cared-- in the side. "It's not just the hangover. Guess the guy you were with last night was unimpressed, wasn't he? Anyway, kick Ricardo in the shins for me, will you?"
Nicolas grabbed Giovanni's wrist, gritting his teeth. "You want me to snap your cane in half again? I'd love to see you fall down the stairs for a second time."

The cat's eyes glowed with amusement. "Maybe. Maybe not. Not that you'd know. You should pay closer attention to-"
"We need to be careful. We can't afford to make too many enemies," Venus whispered. "If that was someone's familiar, then you need to quit holding it out like that!"
Thea darted around the road, minnowlike in movement, and trotted a few paces behind Jacob and Judas.

Jacob clenched his fists as Judas meekly informed him of Venus's presence behind him. "Maybe a little bit of temperature will get her off of my tail," he muttered, silently sending a passive-aggressive spell of insufferable heat her way.

"Boys!" Tessa sounded somewhat alarmed. "Uh, I think you should calm down, before one of you gets hurt." A little flustered at speaking so openly, she rose from her seat. "I'll- erm, I'll see you both later maybe."

Nicolas and Giovanni ignored her, scuffling around in their tiny fight.
Elsewhere, Ricardo was leaning against a shelf in the library. The books dug into his back, but he didn't really care. This gem about the goblin rebellions that he had found hiding under a table was too interesting to ignore. Besides, it beat actually going to the Great Hall and reading there. With all of those annoying mouth-breathers? No thank you, he thought, flipping the page.
