 Peter CampanelliSixteen||Shanghai House||Sixth Year||Peter Pan The boy who never grew up - Peter isn't a bad guy, exactly, he's just a bit cocky. Never having to work that hard for anything will do that to a guy. His magic has always come easily to him, which means everything else came easily as well. Couple that with his father being well known (At least in the Muggle world, and Peter isn't about to spread that around) and you have one slightly spoiled and entitled sixteen year old. A highly social creature, Peter needs to be constantly entertained. He enjoys laughing and anything that causes that - shooting the shit with friends, a quick pickup game, or any group activity. Even classes don't bother him if he finds the subject interesting. On the flip side, he has a hard time doing anything that he finds boring or useless. He can be a little self centered, okay a lot self centered, although it's not always malicious. It's just that Peter's brain takes everything an makes it about himself. Thinking about other people's needs or empathizing doesn't come naturally to him. Why would it? He's never had to before. Plot ideas Lost Boys - I'd love there to be a core group of guys who follow Peter into trouble. They don't necessarily have to be based on the actual Lost Boys, even just a group of other characters that look up to him.
Other friends - People who are drawn to him even though he can be kind of a douche. Or maybe because he'd kind of a douche. Kids are funny like that. Or because despite his flaws he's generally cheerful and fun to be around, makes clever jokes and likes to have a good time.
Enemies (or People who find him effing annoying) - His cocky attitude will likely rub some people the wrong way. Plots where he butts heads with those who only see him for the self centered brat that he can be would be lots of fun!
Professors - I'd love to see a professor or two find him frustrating/take an interest in him. He's a smart boy, smart enough that he can skate by with passing marks without putting forth much effort, but it would be wildly apparent that he could be really great if he just applied himself. Something he has absolutely no desire to do. I think this could make for a good plot
Romance - I imagine any girls who go for the whole soulful guy with floppy hair strumming his guitar thing will go for Peter. He's had a few girlfriends in the past and is always on the lookout for someone to hang on his arm and tell him he's wonderful. As for a real relationship? Who knows. I don't like planning out finals, but I love throwing characters together and seeing what happens. Train wrecks are just as much fun as when they get along well. Maybe more XD
Anything thing else - These are just a few ideas, and I'd love to hear others! |

I think Peter and Kovu would make excellent frenemies. They both seem to love a good joke or prank and Kovu has gotten himself in trouble before and will again. Earlier on he was rather condescending, a little mean and a bit rude but he grew out of it as he started becoming his own person and once he began to see the error of his families ways. He's a very confused person right now so Peter might get on his nerves often. Kovu also has several sides to him that would rub wrong with Peter and certain sides that they could be really close on.
He wouldn't be a lost boy in a sense of looking up to Peter; however, he would be an ally but I don't think they would really consider each other enemies. Maybe earlier on they could've and they could've butted heads a lot in the earlier years. Kovu's family has a deep set reputation of dark wizards and generally just bad, mean people so perhaps Peter could've been a bit prejudice of him especially after seeing what his older siblings were like. I think they'd have fun together and get in some trouble, yet at other times they'll get into arguments or Kovu would seem to pull away from Peter. Peter and Kovu would consider each other close friends at times and at other times when blinded by an argument they'd be rather bitter. or give each other the cold shoulder, but kovu doesn't like arguing or fighting. He can be mellow and laid-back one moment and the next be a complete social butterfly and then he could be very aloof and displaced out. He wouldn't like that Peter doesn't assert himself as Kovu always does. They also both have natural talents in things.
Kovu would understand certain things about Peter and why he doesn't assert himself however he wouldn't understand why he doesn't feel empathetic or sympathetic towards others being that Kovu is extremely caring. Perhaps Peter doesn't fully trust him because of the way he acted when they were younger but they've been growing closer over the past two years when Kovu really started turning around. Peter could be his friend that sometimes relieves him when he's high-strung; although, at the same time could be one of the reasons for him being high-strung sometimes due to him sort of pulling him into his antics?
Kovu also wouldn't like his bratty side but would see past it. Needless to say even Kovu's patience has an end and I could definitely see them getting into arguments about it and how he can be very self-centered. They could've been like complete and total enemies when they were younger though. He would understand Peter's not a bad guy but at times would find him offing annoying and a little too much to handle. He wouldn't feel completely comfortable talking about things with Peter and it'd be obvious that he's holding problems back especially since he's going to be a little more spacey lately due to his severe crush on Kiara. Perhaps Peter takes it upon himself to play detective a bit and find out what's wrong with him because he misses his social butterfly of a friend he often finds joking with and having a bit of fun with. He'd also approve of Peter's music and be supportive of it. Maybe Peter and Kovu bonded over how annoying, evil and jerkish Kovu's older siblings Vitani and Nuka were. They could sort of be best frenemies?
