SHAWN ANNETTE GIFF



these eyes you bought have gone to my head
but they won't take you to my bed

"Hi, my name is Shawn Annette Giff. My parents had a knack for odd names, I guess. That's the only reason I can figure. I go by Shawn, I mean you can't really make a nickname for that can you? If you can please let me know. I am currently eighteen years of age, well at least that is my cover. I am really twenty three but I have been twenty three for a really long time now. I lost track after fifty, I say somewhere in the hundred I suppose.

I am a vampire so my blood is obviously tainted. Though before all of this I was a muggle, oh yes, I was a mudblood. Call me that and I will kill you. I am a fellow Ravenclaw and I am in my sixth year. Don't ask. I am a female or at least I sure do hope so. I don't currently work anywhere but I wouldn't mind having a job, something to occupy my time. And I have heard often that I look like Nina Dobrev. If that's true then wow, not saying I am gay or anything because I am straight but she is extremely pretty!"

you talk a good game, but girl you've been played
look at this face you choose to play

"Positive and negative traits, hmmm. Interesting. Let's got with the positives first. I am a very trustworthy person. Give me a secret and I promise I will keep it. I mean hello, I have kept mine for so very long, well besides telling you. I am friendly, well sometimes. I am very protective. Especially over my family. Yes that is a positive trait, but to Matteo and Ryan, I think they would disagree. They hate it when I try to defend them on something, it's like they lost their manhood or something of that sort. I tend to look on the positive side of things. I hate being a downer. Intelligent, yes that's a big one. I am very smart, it sometimes makes people mad but I love it. I am a great listener. Not very talkative, unless you get me going, so this is good for people who have a lot to say. Oh and I almost forgot, I have a strong wit.

Now for the negative. Matteo and Ryan say I tend to be a bit possessive. What's mine is mine and you can't have it. Eh, I guess that's true. I am very isolated. I don't waste my time on stupid things like love. I have been around for a very long time and if I haven't found it yet I don't think I am going to so why try and look. Plus I am better on my own anyway. I give in easily. I am not very stubborn so I guess that would make me vulnerable in a way. Oh here is one that my brother hate, I get mad super easily. It doesn't take much to throw me over the edge. Umm, what's another one. Man, you think this part would be so easy but I never think down about myself. Oh, does that make me conceded? Uh, I guess that's one then.

What am I afraid of? What am I afraid of? Well, I have a fear of the unlived life, or at least I used to. Now I think it's worn out it value. I also fear the lose of m brothers. They are all I have and what would I be with out them. I am the baby of the bunch, I need my protectors...I guess. My brothers. Does that make sense? I mean I know they would never hurt me but I don't like to see them angry. Would that be a fear? I have a fear of heights too. I have never liked being up high. I get tunnel vision and feel like I am going to pass out. Basically I have a panic attack. Love. Yupp. I fear love. I just don't like the fact of someone becoming close. How would you feel if you lived forever and the person you loved would die in about fifty years or so. It's hard to keep losing someone you love over and over again. I just can't handle it. Small spaces. So yeah, that's what I fear.

My goals, hmm. Well when I was younger, like was young, I wanted to be a teacher. A muggle teacher but now that I ahve gotten older and have been though all this wizard training and what not I would mind working at St. Mungo's or at the Ministry. I think I would be good at that. Or maybe an artist. I have always loved drawing. It relieves stress. I also have a goal of over coming some of my fears.

Strengths? I am good at magic. I tend to learn quickly so spells and potions weren't that hard to figure out. Oh learning. I am smart and catch on fast, kinda what I just said but you get the idea. I am good at prefecting? Um, giving detention? Handling authority! There we go. I don't scare off easily. Trust me, there isn't a lot that I haven't seen or done. You want to call me a name, I wont cry. You want to try and start a fight, I will defend. As I said I have been through it all. Acting! I am a good lair, well not liar but actor. It helps!

Now for the easy part. My likes. Well I like thunderstorms. My brothers. Classical music. Picking on Ryan, he get's so mad and it's funny. Dancing. Drawing. Being outside, fresh air. Which I guess would lead to going for walks. Sitting in quiet, you take this for granted but it's actually hard to come by when you have brothers like mine. Dislikes would include; people who are full of themselves. Seriously, you're not that cool. I don't like loud noises, especially when I am alone. Now that's freaky. Stereotypes; judgment is not fair. Could I add Ryan here? He tends to get annoying when he is being loud and, well, stupid. And Matteo is just Matteo. So in general, my brothers. I dislike my brothers. I don't like the color red. Is that ironic? Hmm."

the town talk keeps me up to date
we will never be the same

"Well, I am the youngest of three children. I was born to Timothy Michaels and Serifina O'Sullivan. I have two older brothers, Matthew or Matteo and Ryan. You know, when you're young you think things are so perfect but sometimes they aren't. For example; My father, the bastard, was only with my mother for one reason - money. Horrible, huh? I was too young to understand at the time but now I do completely. Luckily, two years later my mother net a man of the name Malcolm Giff. They later married and he became my father and to be honest he was the only father I ever knew so to me he was dad. When you are and infant you don't tend to remember a whole lot. But after they got together things seem to pick up. Life when about normally, or when I thought was normal.

My childhood was fair. I mean what else can I say? I did something wrong, I would get into trouble. I did something good, I got rewarded. That's just how it worked, right? I can't remember everything though. It's like a distant memory that is slowly fading with my age. However I do remember when my eldest brother, Matteo, got this letter. It was from a place called Hogwarts. A school for witchcraft and wizardry. He had been accepted to study magic. I guess I could say that I was excited because when he left I only hoped that maybe I would get to go. Then when Ryan got his letter it made me nervous. Could there be a chance that I wouldn't get a letter? That thought bothered me for a whole year, the year that was Ryan's first. But my worries were soon relieved when I received a letter. I remember it well. A waxed Hogwarts crest seal on the back. My name nicely written on the front. The smell of the parchment paper. I can't express how excited I saw. Excited to follow in my older brothers footsteps. When I finally got to walk through those halls and sit under that sorting hat it all became real. I was surprised when I saw sorted into Ravenclaw. I figured I would at least go with Ryan to Gryffindor or follow Matteo into Slytherin. But no. I was granted a whole different house, which I am proud of.

The years seemed to speed by and we children changed. For one of use that would be literal. I was in the sixth year, much like I am now, and Ryan was in his seventh. Things seemed to be different about him but me being the prospective person I am I thought it was simply excitement for graduation. It was only a few years later that I found out the truth. By brother was changed. Some would call him a monster but I didn't see it that way. Honestly I thought it was fascinating. He told us, Matteo and I, that during his seventh year someone had transformed him into a vampire. A vampire. My brother was a vampire. I was about twenty two or three at the time, the time of my change. Yes, my brother and changed myself and my eldest brother into a creature like him. For this I was thankful. Again, bringing back that fear of losing my brothers. I didn't want to die and have Ryan still living. As odd as it sounds, I think I would have been lost.

Years passed, many many years passed and us three never aged. We fled from place to place. Gaining new alias', new homes, new everything. Then at some point we all decided to go back to Hogwarts. Figuring enough time had passed to where we wouldn't be recognized by our looks. Though we did change our names. I remember because mine was Ellen Salvatore. I don't remember why I picked Ellen but I did. Ryan was Jerome and Matteo was Damian. It was hard getting used to those names being called out during class but it grew on you. But Hogwarts was still the same. Graduation was the same. But being back there made things feel more, normal you could say.

After graduating for the second time we had to lay low again. Popping up in different places every few years. We never aged and people became curious. I think I had to explain that I just looked young for my age over a half a billion times. It was only after several years that we decided to, once again, return to Hogwarts. Though this time is was easier because we were us. Meaning I was Shawn. Ryan was Ryan. Matteo was Matteo. Well, you get the point. So now we are all caught up to the present. I am in my third sixth year and things seem to be going great!"
