BIOGRAPHY:
-- a burned candle --
"Mother was extraordinary. She was brave and adventurous, and I wanted to be like her. Well, until she died from experimenting with different spells. Father won't tell me about the accident anymore. He says we will see her after our own deaths. I certainly hope she continued doing what she loved, even when she left the ones she loved." Luna's voice was quiet and detached, as if she were ripping these words from her heart without feeling the burden anymore. She had learned, after seeing her mothers death, that a dreamy life was less painful. Even if she wanted to return to the world of consciousness, she really didn't remember how. It was peaceful where she was. The world was easier to handle how she saw it.
"I was nine. I guess I was sad. I am still sad sometimes, but mostly for myself. Mother died, but she lived doing what she loved. I want to be a naturalist. I am going to continue my search for nargles and wrackspurts. I'd like to find a way to contain them, since warding them off doesn't always work. You know, some people don't believe creatures such as nargles exist? They're so silly. Maybe I just have to show them proof. . ."
-- castle of magic --
"Father hugged me and put me on the Hogwarts Express when I was eleven. I read the latest releases of The Quibbler on the way there, but I think some of the other students found me a tad bit strange because I like to read upside-down. I find it sharpens the mind and makes it more flexible. I suppose they laughed because they knew it is so hard. That's okay. By the time we got to Hogwarts, they had gotten over it and respectively left me alone to read. I think I also took a nap. Maybe wrackspurts just flew into my ears and made my brain all fuzzy. Either way, when we got to Hogwarts, I enjoyed looking at the lights across the water. There was a majestical quality to the castle when I didn't know what was inside just yet. I was hoping to see the giant squid when we crossed the water that night, but sadly he must have stayed away, trying not to scare the other new students.
"When we reached the Great Hall, it took a long time for Professor MacGonagall to call my name. I was distracted by the ceiling magic that when my name was called, so I didn't hear it. Another student was nice enough to nudge me forward. They even laughed with me, which made me feel better about not making friends on the train. The sorting hat is so odd. It said odd things as it looked into my mind. Eventually it placed me in Ravenclaw, which made me happy. It was like finding a home."
-- such lonely happiness --
"Really, my first few years at Hogwarts were fun but lonely. Other students began calling me 'Loony Lovegood'. I find the nickname endearing from some, but I think some of the students mean it in a mean way. It doesn't bother me though." At this, Luna smiled, though still seemed far away. "I enjoy Defense Against the Dark Arts the most. Actually, I'm quite an adept dueler. Most people just think I'm smart because I'm in Ravenclaw, but knowing the spells and performing them is different. I'm sure any Gryffindor could tell you that."
