Work is overrated, Isobela? With a job? Right, that would be the day when Voldemort is resurrected with flaming flamingo pink hair...

What make me unique; "Merlin's beard, it's hard to tell you about my sweet little Isobela. Well, for a while now I've viewed her as one of the girls I could really trust and talk to because she is surprisingly mature and immature at the same time for her age. She talks with words of wisdom that shock me to no end but then the next day she's claiming that the brussle sprouts want to kill her and the spinach is it's ally and I need to stop feeding her that horrible food right away. I can tell you for sure that we - Neville and I, have probably spoiled far too much. She's lived a community where she's famous for who her parents areand then we go and spil her with gifts and endless compliments. It's no wonder she turned out so bossy, spoiled, and demanding.
It's not like she's a wicked person with those traits because plenty of us already possess the same attributes but I'm just saying it's our fault. And that just adds to the fire. Ever since she was a little girl, she's been strong, that bossy, demanding, strong and intelligent little girl grew up looking and acting like steel. And then she goes off about everyday muggle-ish problems that have nothing to do with magic. Bullying, contests, comparing to other children, you know, that stuff. It's funny because Neville and I thought that it was the Wizarding World that would yank the carpet from under her feet but she's going flawlessly when we're talking academically and isn't fazed. Then there are those muggle things. Her stress over murders on newspapers, bullying, petty fights, lollipops, and normality. All those things mattered to her. Where we lived, there were a few muggles that she befriended besides the Potters, Weasleys, her siblings, etc. And she constantly devised up ways to prove herself to them. And when she failed...It was like watching steel crumble into dust. That made it much more painful to bear." - Hannah Longbottom (neé Abbot), Mother
"Isobela, well, I can tell you that she was a daddy's girl from day one which makes me pleased, of course. She was a great little girl and used to toddle or stride into my room when she grew older and always ask me to tell her a story. The story of the Battle of Hogwarts, she's fascinated by that. Bless her, she can't understand how one single man's hatred can cause a full-blown war and finds it astonishing that a war even ensued upon Tom Riddle/Voldemort/You-Know-Who's "petty violence". Again, bless her. She grew up fairly well as a child. A bit reckless, but extremely brave. We knew she'd be a Gryffindor from the start, see. She had a little of a temper on her but who doesn't? I love her to pieces and I hope she makes it through life." - Neville Longbottom, Father
Brave - Like the Sorting Hat sings, Gryffindors are to be brave and brave is what Isobela certainly is. Isobela has the true heart of the lion and she roars with defiance (or, in otherwords, stupid recklessness that often lands her in near-death situations) But, personally, she'd prefer to call it admirable courage. It's the truth that the Longbottoms had a long line of cowards running in their blood but Neville made a stand against the cowardice and Isobela will do the same. Speaking of near death situations, she has had a time when she's had to run for her life through Gringotts from vertically challenged, hairy men. In ither words, the goblins.
Temperamental - Much unlike her soft spoken father but much like her mother, Isobela has a temper like an eruptive volcano. Her patience wears thin constantly and she can be pretty scary when need be. An example of this would be when she'd gone to her classes with her first year sister and a Slytherin tripped her. As said sister described, her face had contorted into a mask of dangerous calmness. With a few soft words and a few swish and flicks of her wand, Isobela had the Slytherin begging on her knees for forgiveness. Except, no fear, this was on a bad day. She doesn't attack unless provoked or she's really stressed. Needless to say, just be careful. This is Volcano Issa we're talking about.
Determined - This meaning, when she wants something, she's going to go for it. This usually comes into play at charms which she is, for once, horrendous at. Coming hand in hand with that stubborn determination, she refuses any help. The first time she tried the aguamenti charm, she almost drowned her brother who had proceeded to yell at her until she had to leave the room for concentration. Still, the more she failed at the charm, the more frustrated she got, thus, inflaming her determination. In short, it took two weeks and fifteen soaked and unfortunate victims - I mean, hufflepuffs for her to succeed. And when she did, mind you, she was very triumphant. The hufflepuffs, for once, were mad.
Mature - As noted before, her mother has said she's been known for being abnormally wise for her age. See, Isobela sees in different perspectives. Although she's not perfect, she's usually good at soothing people and giving kind words of wisdom to those who need them. Although, surprisingly, her most famous wise quote would have been, "Peanut butter is bad!" Which was entirely true. See, the Slytherin Quidditch team ignored her comment and - boom! They took it for granted and were suddenly all allergic to it. Yeah...Peanut butter, bad! Okay, so that wasn't extremely wise but truth be told, it was the best advice she'd given all fifth year. Other than that, she usually does have other, more logical words of wisdom other than peanut butter is bad....Like how she guided the Slytherins into a sort-of truce with the Gryffindors. Then it ended. And they were at each other's throats again...Well, some things can never be fixed.
Kind-hearted - Isobela is an extremely kind person, every knows that. Despite her temper, she's probably one of the nicest people you'll ever meet and she's always there to be your shoulder to cry on or friend to tell horrible secrets to, or the secret holder. Despite recent events including a violent, moody, Issa, she's one of those people who will stick to you till the end and will always try to be kind to everyone else around her unless they give her a reason to do otherwise.
Insecure - This has been subtly mentioned, Although, sometimes, she is portrayed as the better twin. The swan compared to the awkward duck, Isobela is not as what she is admired as in her own eyes. Personally, she's just an insecure girl who strives to be perfect. Like, you and me. She wants to improve everything about her, give her a slight reason to worry about something and she'll desperately try to improve but would, being herself, deny ever doing so.
Loyal - Loyalty has always been emphasized in the Longbottom home. Both Hannah and Neville were involved in the Second Wizarding War, both a part of Dumbledore's Army and both had taught their children the most important thing in life - Bah, no, not love, this isn't Disney. Loyalty. That's right. Isobela is ridiculously loyal to the point where it gets quite unbelievable. She is true to her word and never ever lets another down when they entrust her with their hopes of her loyalty.
Loud - Let's just say, you always know when Isobela's near. Always. It's not like she's an annoying chatterbox...She just...Attracts attention. Isobela's been the center of attention for as long as she remembers. Her siblings say because she's annoying as shit but others comment that she's just the kind of person who pulls at your attention like a veela even though she's not really one.
Graceful - This comes with the fact she's been dancing virtually her whole life. The long legs and arms that adorn her small figure also contribute to this as a physical trait. However, as opposed to what one might think, grace is not just a physical trait, it's a way to live your life. Some might also call this class. For example, she does not constantly prance around in clothes that are too small for her body and shoes she cannot walk in, choosing to go for something a bit more elegant. When she eats, she doesn't chew with her mouth open, and she never ever forgets to put a napkin in her lap. It's just a matter of being neat, and sophisticated about the way you choose to do things. Either way, physically or mentally, she has a certain grace about her, and she always stands tall and walks straight, her head held high.
Forgetful - There is no doubt in anyone's mind this personality trait comes directly from her ever forgetful father, Neville. And the young Isobela forgets about everything. That remembrall Augusta gifted Neville with? Now belongs in Issa's hands. Some people says it's because Isobela's too busy with her head in the clouds but, really, she just finds things too difficult to think about all at once. She can only focus on about three things and then tosses the rest out of her head, which, I must say is not the best way to go about with your life but at least she has the remembrall.

Living the teenage dream,
THE EARLY DAYS
Birth: The family of three sat quietly next to Hannah Longbottom's bed. The eldest child, a female named Angela, slept soundly in her father's lap with her head on his shoulder. Said father being Neville Longbottom. And said man tried everything in his power to not burst into sobs. He looked more scared than he had years ago in the Battle of Hogwarts as he stared at the monitor's screen which showed the twin babies' progression in growth. Only a few hours ago had Hannah cried out that it was time. And, time indeed it was. The former Abbott hissed on the hospital bed as her twin baby children kicked in perfect synchronization. Neville took one of Hannah's hands and smiled at her reassuringly. His wife wanted to yell at him and ask him if he's ever been in labor...Because it was damn tiring and she didn't need his pity. She didn't have time, though, because one of St. Mungo's doctor's walked in with a friendly smile. "Push." And, that, my friends, is how the two Longbottom twins came to be. As the two pink bundled babies screamed and weeped in Mrs. Longbottom's arms and the two year old Angela snored away, Neville and Hannah grinned. They then proceeded to list of names...Annabella, Aurora, Kalia, Charice, Loriana, Gretchen, Astrid, Abbiette, Augusta, June, Kathy...Then they stumbled upon Amelia. Delighted, the couple named the first baby Amelia and the second...Isobela. Isobela, as newly named had stopped crying and looked at her parents with a giggle exploding from her throat once the word Isobela escaped the two's lips. Neville tickled her, Hannah eskimo kissed her. Yes, Isobela was the perfect name. But, you know, there was still the middle name. Damn Merlin's beard...
Childhood: The young, blonde, Longbottom sat on the floor as her father pushed a wand into her hand. He kept demonstrating the swish and flick wand provedure but Isobela was still only two and had a long ways to go until she learned. In her eyes, the wand was a really thin pretzel. So when Neville handed the wand to her, she immediately popped it into her mouth and slobbered on it. Neville Longbottom smiled softly, then his smile turned into a beam, and then his beam turned into a chuckle which transformed into a laugh which resulted in a hysterical giggle as he watched Isobela grapple at the wand, munching her teeth on it vigorously. Isobela finally got the hint that it wasn't a pretzel and quit her gnawing. Neville shook his head. At the state she was in, he doubted she'd make the best wizard but hey, who knew. Yes, who knew. By the age of five, Isobela had learned some basic charms (through much struggle), excelled in transfiguration and her herbology training, and flew auickly by her Defense Against the Dark Arts while she simply gave up on Potions. Still, her parents were proud and Neville figured that perhaps he had been wrong...This young girl was a child prodigy.
THE LIGHT OF A NEW DAWN
As Isobela tromped up to the Leaky Cauldron's top floor, her family's attic, she coughed lightly as dust fell around her. Opening the rickety attic door, she looked around at the large room. It wasn't necessarily an attic. It used to be her great great grandmother's room but when she moved out and passed away, the next generation started using it as a storage or attic room. Then the Longbottoms picked it up and wah-lah! Magic, immediate attic? Why, yes! Stumbling around the room, she looked around for the objects her mum had sent her to get. A couple of times she tripped over things and face planted into a dusty floor but she went on and looked through the boxes until she found the old cooking book for mom asked her to get. It was named something like Melinda's Witchy Cookbook (For all your batty desserts!) which Isobela found odd but she wasn't about to complain. And then...Her eyes fell on a dusty (what wasn't dusty around there?) chest. It was wooden, with a gold clasp that held it together. Scooting towards it, she momentarily forgot the cookbook and dropped it. She was so very curious about it...Isobela curled her fingers around it and found it was too light for it's size. Frowning, she shook the box to make sure it wasn't enchanted. Something thumped around inside. Isobela's eyes lit up with curiosity as she hurried down the stairs to her mum."Mum! I got your Melind Witchy Cookbook thing!" She yelled as she raced back down to the pub's lowest floor where her mum was currently looking after the customers. She shoved it into her mom's hands as soon as Hannah looked around to meet Isobela's gaze. "This is weird..." Hannah's eyes fell on the box in Isobela's hands. Sucking ina. Breath, the woman sighed and read the unspoken question in Isobela's eyes. She opened the box. Leaning in, Isobela gasped. "Shoes? Shoes?" Hannah rolled her eyes. "Not just any, those are ballet shoes." Isobela nodded, thinking it through. "Can I try it?" She asked. "What?" Hannah's eyebrows scrunched together in confusion. "Can. I. Try. It? The dancing, I mean?" Isobela clarified. "Of course, my little dancer..."
