***Junior's Plots!

[Dexter Cox Jr.]

DEXTER MAXIMILIAN COX JR ♔ 17 ♔ RAVENCLAW

- - - - - - - - - - - - 

INFO ♔ Dexter Maximilian Cox, Jr., shares a name with his father, whose name you may recognize from the news - he's an acclaimed spell inventor, potioneer, writer, etc. For this reason - and many others - his son prefers to go by "Dex" to most, "Junior" to some. To others, it is anything unfriendly, seeing as he's painted a target on his head for bullies. He's smaller than average, quiet, socially awkward, bookish, and basically anything else you would consider stereotypically 'nerdy.' As mentioned, he's painfully shy, but if you happen to get him talking then you'll find he's extremely nice, just as intelligent as his grades suggest, and ambitious. In his fourth year, he earned the Seeker position on the Quidditch team, and the pitch is the one place where he lets loose - he unleashes his competitive nature and his passion for the sport. His family moves around all the time, and he rarely goes home to the same place, but he's devoted and loving toward his family, as he would be to most people, if he could work up the courage to say something.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

ENEMIES ♔  Dex, as mentioned above, is a magnet for bullies. He won't stick up for himself, so he would be reluctant to call anyone an enemy. Some may resent his studious nature, or his seemingly misanthropic personality. Others may see him as weak - physically small, extremely quiet, socially awkward. He's pro-Order, and though he doesn't explicitly say that it's pretty clear, so that may merit some enemies even though he himself is a halfblood. Also, he's your typical nerd - very bookish, loves learning, part of the Slug Club. Oh - and he's a complete klutz, so feel free to make fun of his clumsiness. Sometimes he stands out from the crowd because he's American, and because his father is somewhat famous -people consider him to be his dad's spitting image, only way less charismatic and personable. Anyone to say anything against his family, though, is an immediate enemy of his. He's a victim of bullying, so I'd love for this part of his plotting to be filled to the brim.

- - - - - - - - - - - -

FRIENDS ♔ As antisocial as he is, Dex wouldn't have many close friends. He's moved around a lot, and never had time to establish intimate friendships, so he doesn't really know how to make or maintain friends. And he is far too shy to initiate conversation or to approach anyone. However, in conversation, he is unbelievably kind. He's honest and sweet, and as loyal a friend as you can get. He may be closest with the Quidditch team, or fellow fans (he likes American teams, but mostly just likes a good game), and these people know the secret, harbored fiery side of his. He might have a few study buddies too, but he's extremely introverted. Large crowds and social situations terrify him, so he's much more comfortable one-on-one, and there might be a few to try to get him to let loose, or try to get to know him past his "quiet and smart" reputation.

LOVERS ♔ Junior has never been in a real relationship; as said above, he's unbelievably shy and would be even more so around a pretty girl. There was one half summer romance back home, but it wasn't anything serious, so he doesn't have much experience here. This category is extremely open; it'd be kind of cute for him to have a crush, considering he'd have no idea what to do around her. Or if someone had a crush on him, he'd be totally oblivious to flirtation or advancements. He's never been one for flings or one-night-stands, and I don't really see that changing, but hey, anything can happen, right? (; He'd be a loyal and sweet partner, but he get past the nerves as of now.

PLOTTING TIME!

CJ&Dex
I can see there being the most here. They're the same year/house - roomies! Not to mention they're on the Quidditch team together. CJ might come across as being one of the cool kids but it doesn't mean he's the sort who only associates with that crowd. He can be as bookish and nerdy as the next Eagle when he wants to be, and is equally as good at burying his head in a book for hours. He'd probably make sure to be there as a friend as often as he needs to be and will try and lure Dex out of his shell a little, if he can. 

Dominique&Dex
Quite a lot of things came to mind reading through his profile. I think it's safe to say Dominique would be a bitch to him, and fall under the enemy/bully category. Then again, Dominique doesn't always act that way, and sometimes just acts quiet and sulky, so she'd probably alternate between being super bitch and not really bothering, so he'd never know what to expect from on each occasion. 

Curtis&Dex
They might be different years/houses but I can see these two actually getting along fairly well. Curtis is an oddball/outcast too, and spent a lot of years hiding away on his own as the weird kid without friends and stuff. Quidditch was his claim into the social world, but I think the two of them might be able to bond over their family lives, too - Curtis doesn't feel like he has a stable home life, either. 

Raphael&Dex
I think Dex would probably hate being around this guy. You know what he's like, haha. I think drunk Raphael/Dex would be the most hilarious thing, especially considering how Raphael gets once she's sank enough alcohol. And even if he wasn't drunk, Raphael tends to find social awkwardness amusing, and makes continuing more fun.

James&Dex
Obviously not so much contact anymore, but over previous years? I'm sure they could have connected over Quidditch, if nothing else. Then again, Dex could always have fallen victim to a prank or two, as well, so things could stand either way here.

Georgina&Dex
Well... let's just hope they don't cross paths, eh? Georgina likes to assert herself, play mind games, and all the rest, and I'm not so sure poor Dex would know how to handle himself before this gal. She'd probably enjoy it all too much.

Alice&Dex
I'm not sure where the contact would come in between these two, unless they by chance crossed paths at Hogsmeade one weekend... Alice would be friendly and chatty, but not pushy if he was uncomfortable with it. 

[Dexter Cox Jr.]

CJ & Dex
After seven years of rooming together and a few of those and Quidditch teammates, Dex probably figured out by now that CJ is alright to talk to. Like, Dex might actually initiate conversation and say hi in the halls and sit by him at lunch or something. As long as he's not surrounded by admirers and cool kids. Maybe they study together now and again, and talk to one another about whatever. He would probably get really nervous if CJ tried to get him to be more outgoing or do something out of his comfort zone or something, but ultimately since he trusts him he may give in - Dex is a bit of a pushover like that. I'll be tossing him into the Quidditch thread, so they'll have some interaction there, but more may be an option.

Dominique & Dex
Sounds a little familiar xD Yeah, Dex would probably steer clear of her, even more than he does with other people. And if they do interact and she decides to be rude to him, he would just sit there and take it. That's probably where they stand now. It might be kind of interesting if he somehow learned something about her, like that she left home this summer or her body issues or whatever, because he'd be nice and understanding about it, but she might feel threatened and be even ruder to him? I don't know, but definitely the bully-victim relationship.

Curtis & Dex
I like it! Considering neither of them are the most friendly people, not sure how they would've got to talking, but we can just assume they did somehow, and now they get along. The mutual bond over family instability and Quidditch might make Dex loosen up and actually talk to him willingly. They could study together or practice together or eh, maybe he'll talk to Curtis in the Quidditch thread. He should feel honored xD

Raphael & Dex
Um, drunk Raphael and awkward Dex would by hysterical. He might actually find Raphael kind of funny, as long as Raphael doesn't pick on him or anything. Actually, doesn't Red love to drive Ravenclaws up the wall? That could be fun. Being Dex, he'd probably do his best just to ignore him, but... hmm, if they got into it on the pitch then his fiery side would be unleashed. That could be fun - not really friends but somehow they run into each other when Raphael is drunk and then hysteria commences?

James & Dex
Yeah, previous interaction from Quidditch at most. He would've strayed away from the Marauders for the most part, but let's be real, everyone's been subject to their pranks at some point xD He would probably just take the embarrassment and move on, but he'd consider them more tolerable than most bullies because they're not vindictive, just in it for the laughs for the most part. Nowadays, eh, maybe Hogsmeade or something - not that Dex likes to go to Hogsmeade and be social - or if Dex expresses interest in the Order.

Georgina & Dex
Well, this would absolutely be the worst combination ever xD He might even be too boring for her, way too easy of a victim and he'd just sit and take it. Well, except for physical abuse - if his health is at risk he'd stand up for himself. Not sure how they'd cross paths, but if they did... oh boy.

Alice & Dex
Again, maybe if he shows interest in the Order, or they run into each other in Hogsmeade or wherever.

[Deleted]

Frank & Dexter

If Frank realised whose son he was he'd probably spent half hour telling how amazing his dad is, I bet Dex would love that

Regulus & Dexter

I think if these two ever interacted they'd actually get on pretty well. They both seem to suffer from feeling crippling inadequate but I suspect Regulus does a much better job of hiding it. They might know each other through the slug club and having played against each other in quidditch they'd at least be aware of each other. Any thoughts?

[Dexter Cox Jr.]

Frank & Dex
xD He doesn't entirely mind. Most likely he'd sit there quietly and listen while Frank rambled on, which could be funny. Maybe share a few home stories, I'm sure Frank would love that! Haha, well, I imagine they'd get on well if they ever somehow meet.

Regulus & Dex
Hmm, you're very right, I can see these two being somewhat pals, not too close probably but enough so that Dex might be compelled to talk to him, which is an accomplishment. Perhaps they talk to each other at Slug Club gatherings, because Dex HATES social stuff like that so he'd be eternally grateful for someone he can actually talk to, and maybe the practice Quidditch together on occasion considering they are both Seekers, they can probably share a lot of tips. I like that.

[Deleted]

Dex & Frankieboy

Haha that's not so bad then in which case if they come across each other he'd get to here Frank go on and on and on... Frank would probably be quite keen to chat to him, he loves a good story. He'd also quiz him on Quiditch abroad and attempt to convince him that he should choose the Arrow's as his UK team of choice.

Dex & Reggles

Polite conversation partners then. Although Regulus has a reasonable standing in his house he's more relaxed on the edge of a gathering and so it'd be quite natural for him to chat to Dex at sluggies gatherings. Dex might also understand why being captain of the quiditch team is not a job Regulus is likely to be very good at. (Seekers never struct me as natural captains being that they more less play their own game)

[CJ Warren]

CJ & Dex
I'm sure CJ could avoid the cool crowds long enough to share a table space with a friend over lunch xP studying, quidditch, and just general quiet down time in the dorm... I think CJ would probably enjoy his company more than he lets on. He likes being part of the 'in' crowd, but there's a limit to how far you can trust, sometimes.

Dominique & Dex
These two would definitely be fun to throw into a thread together, but I'm trying to think of how exactly his could learn something about her... She wouldn't openly talk about leaving home or anything but... I'm sure we can find a way =P they'd be fun.

Curtis & Dex
Eh, would be something as simple as sharing a table in the back corner of the library to avoid a particularly rowdy bunch one day... I think having someone to talk to about home stuff would definitely help Curtis, especially since the stuff that happens in their lives kind of control his eat readers for his future.

Raphael & Dex
Eh, if he's drunk he won't pick on him, just invade his personal space and probably make a freakishly horrid amount of physical contact that... *shudders* would freak out anyone with any kind of people/social issues. And he most certainly does love to annoy ravenclaws... Imagine the chaos of these two teamed up to work together on some class project or other? XP

James & Dex
I think this is the sort of thing where James would kinda be aware of his existence, talked to him in passing on the pitch and sport stuff, but otherwise remained pretty ignorant to his existence... I mean, James spent a lot of years not caring about anyone other than the marauders, and it was only really in his last year he started to branch out and make other friends that we're actually...friend friends. But befriending everyone isn't really a possibility, so...


Georgina & Dex
She'd find it interesting that he'd just take it, and she'd enjoy trying to get him to fight back. Georgie would really, really love to get into it with this kid. So much fun for her. Even if it did take getting physical to get him to react.

Alice & Dex
Either way ^.^ I think Alice might think he's sort of sweet and his shyness is adorable.

[Dexter Cox Jr.]

Frank & Dex
haha, yeah, I see good things for these two, or at least interesting conversations regarding family and Quidditch. It'd be funny to see him try to convince him to be an Arrows fan, because Dex would try to decline but be polite about it because he prefers to remain neutral. So if Frank ever comes to Hogwarts/Hogsmeade, or if Dex ever goes to the Ministry for whatever reason, we can throw these two together.

Regulus & Dex
Excellent! We oughta thread these two in one of the above situations or the library or in class or whatever else, if you're up for it!

CJ & Dex
That'd be good, I think, like a decent friendship that isn't really close but it can be, if they ever needed it to be. 

Dominique & Dex
Yeah, that was just an idea, and if we think of a way to build on it we can, but for now we can just stick with the bully issue xD If you want to thread them we should! In class or outside, maybe, because they both are kind of that star-gazing nature-loving type, they might run into each other.

Curtis & Dex
I think these two would be cool to thread as well, if you're up for it. The misfits xD In the library or something.

Raphael & Dex
Oh lawwwd now that would be a sight to see. Or what if we combined the two and they were supposed to work on school stuff, and Raphael showed up drunk? Craziness ensues, and I'm sure Dex would love struggling to remain nice and kind while he's dealing with a touchy drunkard and is getting really annoyed.

James & Dex
Yeah, I think familiarity would work best, but a positive one, enough to make Dex uneasy whether or not he should say something if they ever crossed paths.

Georgina & Dex
Poor kid xD If she ever is in Hogsmeade looking for a victim, you know where to find me! He doesn't really go often because, you know, people, but he might sneak out every once in a blue moon when there's not thousands of students or if he needs something from the village.

Alice & Dex
Okay, we'll play this one by ear but I definitely think they'd get along no hitches xD

[CJ Warren]

CJ & Dex
They'll be awesome  

Dominique & Dex
We should. For sure. If he happened upon her while she was up the Astronomy tower she would not be best pleased with him. That's her 'me' time, and she does not take well to being disturbed. 

Curtis & Dex
Absolutely! Curtis needs more threads ^.^

Raphael & Dex
YES! That's definitely the sort of thing he'd do XD Man, this thread is already epic and it hasn't even started yet XD

James & Dex
Sounds good

Georgina & Dex
If she needs a victim, this guy's in trouble

Alice & Dex
Yup Yup

[Deleted]

Frank & Dex
I this would be hilarious so if a situation comes up it'll be funzies, I think if Dex was being polite then Frank would push until Dex at least agreed to come and see the Arrows play.

Regulus & Dex
Yes! I think maybe in class? Though I don't really mind the situation I'd be up for anything really. Oh and Regulus might struggle to avoid asking Dex why an earth he hangs out with CJ when CJ is clearly an arrogant arse...
