Ominis Gaunt's matrix
Ominis Gaunt
One of my favorite professors to get caught up with in conversation. He's knowledgeable about Muggles, as expected, and he makes me want to consider a career in Muggle relations...
Someone else who can understand the stigma and pressures of ancient lineage.
Marnie is a nice girl, and I enjoy her presence in the Library. She's always eager to explain difficult concepts.
Hazel is quite sweet on a good day - I'm always glad when she invites me along to nap on the lawn.
Something about Lucan is just... entertaining. I loathe his brutish club, but he's an entertaining presence. He's certainly a good influence on the others.
I've known Alec loosely since we were children, but now that I've had the opportunity to get to know him better in Hogwarts, I'm proud to consider him a friend. Kindhearted, and holds just as much disdain for pureblood tradition.
What's there to say about Poppy beyond she's a fierce as she is sweet. Never fails to bring a smile to my face with her warm friendship and sharp tongue.
Unpleasant to many, but I can appreciate a peer who can pay a compliment, as well as share useful information. She has loose lips, but that's beneficial to me.
I've known Clover for some time now - I'm envious he managed to stay free of his... extended family and go his own way - though, I do question if he should be reined in.
A kind and clever girl, and someone who has made a rather intolerable subject for me palatable.
My darling childhood companion, and someone who is far more family to me than my own blood.
While Sable is quite... agreeable when it comes to me, I understand it's likely more due to my surname than any actual merit of friendship. That said, she's amusing.
Thaddeus is someone I can relate to. Similar upbringings, an appreciation for academic pursuits, and a preference for calm rather than... well, I can certainly appreciate time spent with him. A dear friend, and a pleasant reprieve from more taxing things.
I'll fight his parent if needed and adopt him in the Gryffindor family as my brother. He is the sweetest boy ever and I will not let anyone put a finger on him.
Any friend of Sebastian is a friend of mine - and Ominis, while perhaps not the greatest duelist, is still a fine friend indeed. I enjoy getting a rise out of him.
Flawless complexion, well-maintained appearance, and a good ear for gossip. Ominis, while a bit intimidating at first, is truly a delight. Kinder than I originally thought, too.
A sharp retort for everything, but always good for an entertaining conversation. While he may disapprove of one or several dozen of my hobbies, Ominis is a good friend.
Public: A family acquaintance.
Private: Ominis and I both seem to share a hatred to how things in our circles are done, though he must be much braver than I. For my own sake and comfort, I could hardly openly discuss it.
I don't know him for long, but he's already like a brother to me. Ominis is smart and very gentleman-like, I like him for that. I helped him with the potions assignment, and taught him how to use his senses for brewing potions.
Our family ties aside, Ominis is a good friend and good company too. We share many similar opinions.
An exceptional bloodline and enjoyable to speak with? Gaunt, while a bit soft for my liking, is very much a friend I'd like to keep around.
