Hello, Sorting Hat! Katie/rosenritter/Graham-and-Watson-mun here with my 3rd character and a brand new Librarian for Hogwarts, Aziraphale from the wonderfully hilarious novel Good Omens! His PB is Anthony Stewart Head as Giles from Buffy, but I'll end up changing it whenever the Good Omens BBC miniseries cast list gets announced or if anyone from Buffy apps in, whichever comes first.

In this setting, his name is Ezra Fell and he is a 38 year old, slightly effeminate Englishman instead of an angel who is thousands of years old and only comes across as a fancy gay Brit. He prefers to go by Mr. Fell, but professors and staff can get away with calling him Ezra.

INCOMING INFO DUMP~

He is a Pureblood from a very old, wealthy, and well-respected family. He was a Ravenclaw in Hogwarts and a prefect from his 5th year on, but he wasn't terribly well liked due to his fussy, bookworm ways. He really only had (and has) one friend and that is a whole other strange kettle of fish. Though he means well when it comes to Muggles and Muggleborns, he ultimately doesn't really understand them and can be a little patronizing. During the war, he was a member of the Order of the Phoenix. He runs a book store in London's Soho district which caters to Muggles as well as witches and wizards, but it's mostly a front for part of his extensive book collection. He is therefore intentionally the worst salesman in the history of the world.

He has many interests and hobbies, each one more astoundingly nerdy than the last. The crown jewel of his dorkiness is possibly his affinity for Muggle sleight-of-hand "magic", which he loves despite being shockingly terrible at it.

You can see his app here and permissions are on his journal. Feel free to hit me up here or on my plurk at rosenritter for past CR and plotting!

Usagi will greatly love to see his magic tricks!

[angelfruitcake]

And he'd love to have an audience! Even though he'd despair at her grammar and spelling.

[arrogantalloy]

Great thing about her watching his magic, she wont have to write anything xD

Greg's a frequent visitor to the library. Any chance we can work something out?

[angelfruitcake]

Absolutely! Especially since Greg is likely to be there for legitimate reasons and not just to make a book fort or to have a place for makeouts.

[di_intraining]

Awesome! Would they have spoken before? Introduced each other? Or would you rather have them be introduced in time to come?

[angelfruitcake]

Ezra will be arriving soon to take over from the previous librarian, so he'll be introducing himself to the school in his first entry. XD

[di_intraining]

So maybe Greg could ask him about a book in the first entry? They could have a proper meet-up.

[angelfruitcake]

Sounds like a great plan to me!

[bev_rage]

can i just take a moment to screech over your PB?

[angelfruitcake]

It is rather screech-worthy, isn't it? Not to brag.

... okay, to brag just a little.

[bev_rage]

yes, brag away

i'll just be over here oogling

[mysterytwin]

Guess who has two Ravenclaw bitties that constantly frequent the library?

[angelfruitcake]

And guess who would be pleased to see youngsters appreciating the library and be glad to help them, as long as they respect the books and return them in a timely manner!

[mysterytwin]

Always :3 also he might come across Dipper asleep at a table some times

[its_cor_aline]

I'm just ridiculously excited for this character since I adore that book to pieces.
..and Anthony Stewart Head being his PB just adds to the awesome. ^_^

[preanimator]

Holy shit, how did I miss this? AZIRAPHALE!! YAY!!! Man, what a perfect choice for PB, too! The right age and everything.
