So, although I won't be playing Ben just yet I figured I could post this up so that he can have some history with a few people when I do start rping with him, in about mid june. He was born blind, magic changed his life when he found out he was a wizard and his sight was healed. He's been going to Hogwarts since he was 11 and is completely, utterly, unashamedly happy and optimistic. If someone is down, he will most definitely put a lot of effort into getting a smile on their face.

__ F R I E N D S __
[white]Best friend[/white] - i used to live alone before i knew you
[white]Good friend [/WHITE]- it's more than just a friendly game
[white]Average friend[/white] - well i could start discovering your world
[white]Partner in crime[/white] - pushed the minute to the limit for a long time
[white]Insperable[/white] - there's no price i would not pay
[white]New friend [/WHITE]- i'll see your hand reach out
[white]Childhood friend [/WHITE]- gone away are the golden days just a page in my diary
[white]Strained friendship [/WHITE]- i shouldn't have to fight for something that's already mine
[white]Acquaintance [/WHITE]- well don't be shy, i've got an open heart and hand
[white]Friend of a friend [/WHITE]- far in the distance, this is the view from the other side
[white]Faded friendship [/WHITE]- you're not here and the distance is too far
[white]Fake friend[/WHITE] - i'm crying out, you don't hear a sound
~
__ L O V E S __
[white]Final[/white] - well now it's etched in stone that i can't survive alone
[white]In love[/white] - it was enough just to hear it, oh it rang like the bells did today
[white]Current[/white] - they say you've got a hold on me and i won't disagree
[white]Flirting [/white]- you say that love's tough, are you sure?
[white]Fling [/white]- turn out the lights and let the night begin
[white]Crush on Ben[/white] - i stop to catch my breath and i stop to catch your eye
[white]Crush on you[/white] - it's love in disguise, i'm lost in your eyes
[white]Ex, still feelings [/white]- victimised by those old butterflies
[white]Ex, over[/white] - this is how a heart breaks and it's all it's cracked up to be
[white]Physical attraction[/white] - baby, whatcha doing today, what are you doing later?
[white]Secret[/white] - silence speaks louder than words
[white]On/off[/white] - oh baby i have been here before
~
__ E N E M I E S __
[white]Hatred [/white]- you're like a splinter just killing me slowly from inside
[white]Betrayed[/white] - i have been undone by my own kind
[white]Friends no more [/white]- you took my trust, ground it to dust
[white]Dislike [/white]- hey you there keep your distance
[white]Annoyance [/white]- don't test my patience, baby
[white]Jealous [/white]- ain't it just a piece of cake to make me look like a fool?
[white]Rivals [/white]- i know i'm on my way to the top
[white]Tolerate [/white]- out of the corner of my tired eyes i'm not surprised
[white]Tension [/white]- wouldn't i love just to rise above this
[white]Indifference [/white]- makes no difference who you are
[white]Scared of Ben [/white]- like a bolt out of the blue
[white]Scared of you [/white]- if fear was money you'd be a millionaire
~
__ O T H E R __
[white]Like family [/white]- i'm no stranger to this feeling
[white]Mixed feelings[/white] - right and left bring me to the centre
[white]Housemate[/white] - hope you don't mind if i fall asleep on your shoulder
[white]Protective of Ben[/white] - just maybe you'd save me
[white]Protective of you[/white] - i'll be your stepping stone, don't be so alone
[white]Confidant [/white]- you need to consider what you think you're worth
[white]Respect[/white] - you got my permission to break the tradition
[white]Good influence [/white]- lift your spirits, spark your smile
[white]Bad influence [/white]- i'm moving in reverse under your mighty curse
[white]Awkward [/white]- why you gotta be so shy to me?
[white]Trust [/white]- let me know what's really going on
[white]Distrust [/white]- i would love to say i'm ready to just tell you where i'm headed

History:
Tommy has had little interaction with Ben so far, but what he has come across is mostly good - he tried to cheer him up one time when he was feeling down, but that's about it.
What you say about Ben:
I don't know Ben very well, but he seems like a nice guy. He's always cheerful and tried to cheer me up one time when I was down, which surprised me because I don't know him.
What Ben says about you:
Tommy seems a great kid, he was just in need of a bit of cheering up one time and I provided it. He's no where near as bad as a lot of the people here when it comes to being all depressed and seems to be happy most of the time. I guess he was just having a rough day.

History:
Susan has known Ben since his first year, and naturally they’ve shared conversations here and there. Whether it’s at meals, odd times in the common room, or whispering during classes, Ben always seems to be able to put a smile on Susan’s face. Susan, who loves to be happy, welcomes these interactions and generally looks forward to the next. Recently though Susan hasn’t been as happy as she used to. She hasn’t spoken with Ben in awhile and their friendship may be changing soon.
What you say about Ben:
"Ben’s a super great guy. So nice and funny too. He really knows how to make a person smile, and I’m glad I have him to talk to most times."
What Ben says about you:
"I like Susan. She hardly ever seems to need cheering up, and as much as I enjoy cheering people up it's always a nice change to talk to her. I haven't seen her around lately though since her accident, and it's starting to worry me a bit..."
