CAIUS BURKE is TWENTY-SEVEN YEARS OLD and a SHOP ASSISTANT at BORGIN AND BURKE’S in KNOCKTURN ALLEY. He looks remarkably like GREGG SULKIN and considers himself aligned with THE DEATH EATERS. He is currently UNPLAYABLE.

→ OVERVIEW:

Always the life and soul of the room, Caius Burke is from a long line of sorcerers who know that simply to be liked is a very undervalued power. The eldest son of KRATISTA FLINT and EELIS BURKE, Caius was born into a family of great privilege and thus in the best possible position to ascend amongst the wizarding elite residing in London. From the incredibly wealthy and noble house of Flint, his mother Kratista was not overly thrilled at the prospect of becoming a Burke. A woman raised with finery on a sprawling estate which held large dinners and lavish parties, moving into the Burke residence in Bloomsbury was a dark and dismal downgrade. The townhouse stood tall over four floors surrounded by beautiful gardens, but for Kratista it was less than enviable. Whilst Caius’ uncle had kept his mother’s family home to raise his children, his aunt married into the Yaxley family and moved to their estate. His cousins were often said by his mother to have a similar upbringing to that of her own, taking tea and scones in great glasshouses and hosting other families for long weekends. Meanwhile she had been landed with his father whose assets were tied up in a shop in Knockturn Alley she had no love for and was owned by Caius’ grandfather CARATACUS BURKE who refused to sell it or bump out his partner CALLISTHENES BORGIN and thus prevented his mother from living her dream life in the Home Counties.

For Kratistia Burke, Borgin and Burke’s was the chain around her neck she’d been burned with but had taken it on to ensure she was married and children to someone within The Twenty-Eight. But to Caius and his younger sister LYRA, Borgin and Burke’s was their entire world. Whilst most children shied away from things they found strange, he had a fondness for dark objects and odd things just as his grandfather did. Caius liked the grandeur of Borgin and Burke’s. His family were in possession of centuries worth of strange and wonderful pieces of history, each with its own backstory. Whilst his father worked for Borgin and Burke’s in a travelling capacity, scouring the county for new artefacts to bring home to the shop, his mother was doing the rounds of various tea rooms, restaurants and houses rubbing shoulders with important families to ensure her children would make good marriages. It was because of this, Caius and Lyra were often left in the care of their grandfather. Their days were spent on the shop floor and making up scary stories about the things they found there and never failing to get chills when Caratacus and Callisthenes told them the real history behind them. There he and his sister would be each day, their eyes wide and beaming smiles on their faces as they explored the wonders of the shop, marvelling over each new addition and pouting when ones were removed.

It was the time spent in Borgin and Burke’s that ignited a deep love of magical history within Caius and a respect for those that had come before them. His mother had certainly raised him a traditionalist and Caius was incredibly proud and honoured to come from two incredibly important families. Social status certainly mattered to him and from an early age he began to understand the importance of presentation, being well liked and that intelligence, charisma and good connections meant a lot within the circles their family moved. Caius was proud of Borgin and Burke’s and of his grandfather’s achievements, but he had a feeling their family could do more with what they had. Unlike his mother, Caius had little interest in ousting the Borgin family from their shop, it was an important part of Borgin and Burke’s history and with such big dreams and ideas he knew that having help was certainly important. Thankfully, his best friend understood that too. ERIK BORGIN was the great nephew of Callisthenes Borgin and the only person who could continue to run the shop from their family after he passed away. The same age as Caius, the two quickly became close. Erik was like Caius and Lyra. He was strange. He wasn’t frightened by darkness; he was curious about it and had enough charisma to convince other people they should be too.

The three of them fit together perfectly, the next generation of Borgin and Burke’s laughing about the future and concocting great plans as they watched Knocturn Alley bustle below from the windows. Caius knew his and Erik’s talents lied with running the shop. His sister, however was destined for better. Lyra dreamed of adventure and distance between the restrictive arms of their mother, she had always known her own mind and Caius admired her persistence in trying to forge the life she wanted. Whilst Caius was happy for his mother to speak on his behalf and arrange marriage contracts for them both, Lyra despised it. Love meant something more to her than it did for him and Erik. For them their life would be the shop, marriage would be for security and status but Lyra didn’t want that. She was his very best friend and the only person he would willingly face his mother’s wrath for. Leaving Lyra to go to Hogwarts hurt him, but at least he had Erik and they were determined to ensure their presence was known at Hogwarts and amongst the rest of the young members of the wizarding elite. Sorted into Slytherin, Caius felt at home with fellow intelligent folk and natural born leaders. He was every inch the Slytherin, sure of himself willing to do and say anything to win the opinions and favour of others and attracting friendships with incredibly influential figures, LAVENDER BULSTRODE and CORNELIUS CRABBE.

Though he was the head of his small group of Slytherin students, Caius was part of a much wider group he shared with Erik. ANYA ROOKWOOD, LACHLAN MCTAVISH, Caius, Erik, Lavender and Cornelius owned the halls of Hogwarts, garnering a reputation amongst their fellow students of being elitist and pureist. Caius himself, was neither of these things. Erik was a ¼ veela and not from The Sacred Twenty-Eight, though Caius had never viewed him any differently. He didn’t think blood made you better than anyone else, but that was the society they lived in. Caius wanted to be somebody and was he was willing to play the role life had handed him in order to get there. Graduating from Hogwarts a member of The Slug Club, with brilliant grades and important friends, Caius returned home to Borgin and Burke’s to begin his education with his grandfather. For the first few years he lived a double life, spending his days learning about how to identify objects, studying their history and dealing with cursed items, travelling with his father and searching for objects before he was trusted to take the occasional one himself. The other side of his life was rubbing shoulders with the elite under the instruction of his mother. Kratista had big plans for her son and had entered him into a marriage contract with ALECTO CARROW some years ago before her family had lost their fortune.

Now she had designs on someone else she firmly believed was a better match for him. ADRASTIEA GREENGRASS, was a beautiful witch from a very powerful and wealthy family. Though his mother liked the idea of Caius and NARCISSA BLACK, which Caius liked as well, Kratista thought Adrasteia was a good match for him. Adrasteia was certainly beautiful and a handful, which Caius liked, but as a natural flirt with a fondness for forbidden fruit, a certain redhead still held his attention. Alecto Carrow would never bring him any happiness only trouble. But for a young wizard who liked to dance with danger, trouble was exactly what he wanted. It was this same love of darkness and dangerous situations that have resulted in Caius ending up in the midst of a war he has little interest in the cause for. Convinced to start speaking with BELLATRIX BLACK through his close friend RABASTAN LESTRANGE, the pair quickly had their services called upon. Given a list of artefacts including Salazar Slytherin’s Locket, The Sword of Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup and Merlin’s Book, the boys have been doing their best to track down the objects but have increasingly felt out of their depth. After his cousin ROSALIE FLINT went missing after The Yule Ball, Caius considered the worst and has been doing his best not to put a foot out of line ever since, even if there is an ever growing voice in his head telling him to run for the hills and take Alecto with him.

Controversial Shipping Asks: A Ship That Pisses You Off and A Ship That Is Unpopular But You Still Like. :)

Disclaimer:

I'm allowed to like or dislike whatever I want, and you don't have to agree with me. Me not liking a ship is not a personal attack on any one person.

A Ship That Pisses You Off:

Arrowverse:

I'm going to have to say ColdFlash. Because it's everywhere. Leonard Snart ships already make me uncomfoy and it's very annoying when I can't search for any of rarepairs or even WestAllen without ColdFlash coming up on the first page because A03 doesn't always let me filter out other tags and I waste so much time sorting out fics that also have ColdFlash. Also every single time I check the tab for my rarepair (which there are currently 54 fics for) I always have to filter out ColdFlash and that's literally 1/4 of the content (23 fics currently) and I'm just at a point where I'm like "Can I search ONE Barry ship without ColdFlash coming up on the FIRST PAGE instead of what I'm looking for?"

Harry Potter:

So, disclaimer for this one. This is kinda controversial and I'm not a dramatic Snape stan and I don't consider myself an anti because I don't care if y'all ship it but like Jilly's relationship progression annoys the fuck out of me and makes me kind of depressed. Like, why is James the golden boy Lily loves just because he didn't turn out to be a blood pureist? Like ... he and his friends still harassed and nearly killed a boy on more than one occasion + thought it was funny for no reasons other than 1) he had "greasy hair". 2) He was in a different house at school 3) He was too close to a girl one of them had a crush on. I know people are like "he changed, he grew up" but we didn't see any of that. To me it just really feels like Lily ended up with the lesser of two assholes. It always felt like she got with him really soon after or around the time Snape called her a mudblood. So ... it always just felt like James bullied her until she liked him and her friend being blood pureist. I'm just sort of sitting here like "Lily deserved better" and I'm usually more inclined to be lenient towards kids because they can grow up and change but there is not a lot of time at all between Hogwarts and when Lily and James got married so I just ... don't like them lmao.

A Ship That is Unpopular But You Still Like:

Arrowverse:

I had to think LONG and hard about this one because my main ships (Steelspeed, Flashclub, LegalFlashClub, Flashatom, etc) Are 90% of rarepairs and honestly I had to name the first 3 myself. (Flashclub with help from the Arrowverse server Flarrowverse Shipyard)

I'm gonna go with FlashAtom because I feel like they have so much potential even as friends in the verse. I mean they already share a favourite musical, and they're cute sweet scientists like??? Can you IMAGINE them talking about science stuff all day??? Like listen I love me some Olivarry but like??? Flashatom??? That would be SO SOFT. I'm weak just thinking about it.

Harry Potter: [Discussions of sex and touch repulsion ahead]

CHARMIONE

I feel that this is a copout because I like a VERY spesific Charmione set up and most ships like this are mostly fanon because we don't see a lot of Charlie but I'm going to be self-indulgent anyway.

I like to think about Hermione being slightly touch repulsed(not all the time, and not and not exactly sex repulsed) she's just not a huge cuddler. Then I like to think of her offically meeting Charlie sometime after the war(because I'm sure he saw her at least twice but flat up wouldn't remember her with so many people in that house lol), and Charlie is hetroromantic + Asexual (Sex neutral/bordering on sex-adverse) and them getting married and bonding over her passion for justice and his passion for dragons. Because I really like that headcanon that Charlie is just borderline like Steve Irwen towards Dragons with so much respect and love for them. Also imagine them protesting to protect Dragon nesting grounds together? Please?

And The Winner IS!!!!!!!!!!! Yes, this is an expanded version of "Donna Kooler's 555 etc...." but Donna Kooler's design team never fails to give you bang for your buck in any of their books. They create designs in a variety of needlework styles but Cross-Stitch is my favorite. Her strongest features are brilliant color, unique design, various themes and variety of styles. Her books go from simple and childlike motifs to the Photo-realistic pieces in her "Donna Kooler's Seasons in Cross-Stitch." No matter what your taste her designs are always striking. This book focus' on motifs and suggestions for Cross-Stitch Samplers in a variety of themes and styles. Yet all her motifs are designed so that they may be used as individually as you wish; either singly or in combination with others. It is always up to you. She uses color shading to enhance pieces and in so doing gives dimension and character to each motif no matter how simple. One thing that I always admire in a Donna Kooler design is that, as far as I have seen, she is a pureist. None of her designs seems to vere from specific cross-stitch, with some back stitch highlighting. I may have missed something but I don't think so. This appears to be a Donna Kooler principle of design and her designs are consistantly outstanding to me. The construction may be simple but some,( not those in this book however,) are strictly for the advanced stitcher. Without complicating her work with stitches other than pure cross-stitch, she is capable of producing gorgeous pieces and that means we will be too. This book is no exception. Contents include motifs from song birds to shells, various alphabets, several styles of specific Samplers and the alternative motifs you might want to substitute. There are florals, Home and Hearth, Favorite Things, Hobbies, Borders, Holidays, Animals, etc. Her styles range from the naive to graphic realism,(NOT Photo-realistic though.)The basic style is what is on the cover but between the pages you find the key to how she/they put them together to create masterpieces that will last beyond a lifetime and become treasured family heirlooms. One piece of stitchery will lead to another and you will find people hopeing for one or more of your pieces as gifts to pass down in their families. A 10 star book that I'm only allowed to give a 5 star rating. Yup, this is a definite winner! Go to Amazon

Everything you ever will need This is the best book in all of the tons of cross books I have. I would love to meet this woman. My bad luck I love here and not next door. There would be tons of borrowed sugar moments. This book has everything you could possibly need in patterns and designs. Love ya Gonna. Thanks Go to Amazon

Five Stars Bought this for my MIL and she loved it! Go to Amazon

Love the patterns Love the patterns...but my biggest problem are all the quarter stitches. I generally use vinyl weave which does not allow these type of stitches. Go to Amazon

Very good choice I really like this book. I've done many of the designs from my sister's book many years ago and therefore thought I should have one of my own. What I like is the variety in the designs to suit any occasion and liking. I've stitched many of these as gifts to friends and they've all loved them. There was a design to suit each of their different personalities. They're simple to do and turn out very pretty. The book is very encouraging to a beginner... makes you want to stitch them. The illustrations and color scheme are also very nice. The only downside I can think of is the binding. The pages may tear and come off with repeated use. This book may not be for a real expert who desires to do elaborate cross stitch such as wall hangings. But, for an ordinary person it's a very good choice. Go to Amazon

quality craft nice clear stithing pictures Go to Amazon

Surprised! I was worried I would end up with more of the same I already have but nope this one is different. It's clear and plenty of different choices for whatever project you're working on. Go to Amazon

Great patterns and the right size for me to make ... Just right for my needs. Great patterns and the right size for me to make cards! Love it~ Go to Amazon

I own this book It is easy to follow the color patterns My problem is some ... cool Disappointed very happy with my purchase Saving pattern for XMas Five Stars Don't bother Five Stars Four Stars
