wands at the ready, BENJY FENWICK has joined the fight! the TWENTY FIVE year old works as a MINOR LEAGUE QUIDDITCH COMMENTATOR, but spends HIS time fighting for THE ORDER. BENJY is known to be EASYGOING & PERCEPTIVE, as well as NONCHALANT & REACTIVE.

               hey everyone!! i’ve played benjy exactly Once before but i’ve written him in a few fics and tbh i’m ??? so excited to bring him to y’all!! he has a pinterest HERE and also i chose that gif bc i cannot stop laughing at it lmao

               AESTHETIC: balancing a chair on its back legs, an easy grin, quick fingers, muggle comics, cans of coke, bomber jackets, denim, tracing patterns on friends’ skin, a carefree grin on the eve of battle, eyes always reacting, a shock of laughter in the dark of the night, scuffed shoes, homemade popcorn, spray paint, sunglasses af, walkman in your jacket

               CHARACTER INSPO: jack wilder (now you see me); johnny storm (marvel comics); joel “drainpipe” edwards (vinyl); sam wilson (mcu); some aspects of steve harrington in there too (stranger things)

my muggleborn son’s a libra ( oct 4 ) ( this is bc it’s my friend’s birthday and sometimes i look at him and i’m like… wow benjy got some of his chill from you huh )

so... the 24/25 yo cohort/age group, i think

was gryffindor keeper in his seventh year

currently works as a quidditch commentator in the minor leagues ( as in, not international. probs like ballycastle bats vs appleby arrows kinda thing, so if you’re character’s a quidditch player, quidditch reporter or even just a quidditch fan, hmu!!! )

benjy voice: “first thing’s first, i’m the realest CHILLEST”

arrived at hogwarts as a fan of rugby ( union, he doesn’t really fuck w league tbh ), football, comics and muggle music and was like ??? y’all have moving posters ??? more importantly, y’all actually fly on brooms ??? i thought that was a stereotype

he loves having magic but he’s never lost his muggle roots

honestly thinks some of the shit the purebloods pull ( not the genocide stuff, gross, he’s fighting against that; the stuff like owning peacocks lmao ) is fucking hilarious and can be found jaunting into the auror offices & ministry lunch area just to drop in on mary and his fellow muggleborns like “guys i have the funniest pureblood story to tell you lmao”

actually really perceptive, and surprisingly good at advice sometimes, like usually he’s just chill and up for a laugh but ?? he’s pretty observant and he cares about his friends. he’s not, like, particularly fervent or feels the need to show it in a tangible, explicit way, but he’s always… there? like if you just need someone to sit with in the night, he’s there, and if you need someone to go to a bar with and mainline tequila until you can forget the eyes of the people you fought that night, he can do that too

but yeah he’s p ?? lowkey perceptive sometimes honestly. like. he’s just like, when his friends are being dramatic and beating themselves up for stuff, like — here for home truths, but usually delivers them softly/low key

“mate am genuinely jus here for a laff x”

would looooove some friendos his age too! he looooves a muggleborn squad always ofc ( and the other order members for sure!!! he’s like “yeah man, let’s hang & fight the darkness at the same time AYYYYOOO” but also muggleborns and/or gryffindors within a few years of him.... hmu ) but he wants some people who were at school w him etc. + like, he’s a fun guy, give him all the friends

theoretically smart enough to not rile death eaters. jury’s out as to whether he decides to follow this reasonable approach LMAO

has probably ironically finger gunned enough that even he’s not sure if it’s ironic anymore

the sunglasses emoji

on a more serious note, he’s… not afraid to die, like he does think it’s worth it, but at the same time, it isn’t really something that feels real to him??? like as a possibility??? like intellectually he knows it is but like… he can’t imagine it happening, not really, not yet, you know??

call him mudblood and honestly depending on who you are, he’s probably gonna shoot you a shit-eating grin and give you the finger guns or raise an eyebrow at you. call his friend that and he might punch you though lol

but like, more on the mudblood thing: he doesn’t like it, ofc not, but it’s sorta like — don’t let the bastards get you down?? like, damn, it’s so much easier to treat it irreverently and let it lose its power?? which was… harder when he first understood what it meant ( which was after being told, properly—it was when he first really felt the hate and scorn that came with the word being thrown at you ) but now it’s almost second nature

he actually has a lot of chill ( i thank his libra-ness tbh ) and a dry sense of humour a lot but like. v much ready for the fight

really good at picking locks lol. “nothing is ever really locked”

has had pink streaks in his hair before he don’t care. loves the muggle rock and punk. also spray paint. he’s my cool lil vandal

def not a rich kid. doesn’t get to see his fam as much anymore but he’s like ?? honestly he loves them and he figures he sees them sporadically which is like? normal for someone his age? lmao. like all his muggle friends are living away from their fam too. but yeah he grew up with hand-me-downs and his mother working double shift and his little brother dumpster diving for shoes to play footy in. it got a bit better when his dad came back into the picture — still not with his mother ( which benjy’s glad for lmao. he gets along all right with both of them, but they were never a good combo in his opinion ) but back in town and with a steady job and he was helping support benjy’s school stuff and his little brother jamie’s schooling and stuff. so benj knows his fam’s all right now, but he never grew up with spare cash

looooves his walkman lmao

THIS pinterest board is for a group of characters ( including benjy ) in a muggle au fic but honestly a lot of it still vibes him lmao

yeah so!! if ya wanna hang or plot w this chill order bub, hmu!! loves the order. significantly less keen on death eaters lmao but i want them (baby boi’s gotta get blown up u know u know)
