Carewyn is cool and her mother seems amazing! The O’Donnell quads (Ryan, Cara, Sara, & Conor) would be very awkward and in awe of Lane Cromwell as their mom died before their 1st birthday. They only have their abusive, neglectful jerk of a uncle to go off of as a parental figure.
[Did you say four siblings from different houses with no good parental figures? That’s basically her with her siblings, when they were young! Except, you know...functional and loving and supportive of each other. So yeah, Lane likes these kids already, even though she’s absolutely not used to having quite so many people in her home, LOL.
While Lane’s picking out books in the other room, she can hear the quadruplets whispering among themselves probably going all “is this woman for real?” and “she can’t really be this nice” and “I think she seems cool,” that sort of stuff. Once she’s picked out everything she’s looking for, she comes into the living room with a whole stack in her arms.]
“Here we are...”
Tumblr media
“I picked out a couple things I thought you guys might find interesting -- feel free to peruse them, while you’re waiting. I’ll bring out the tea when it’s ready.”
[She sets the worn, but well-cared-for books down on the coffee table. Their titles include things like The Annotated Tales of Beedle the Bard, The Noble Sport of Warlocks, Most Macabre Monstrosities, Dominating Dementors: A True History of Azkaban, and Saucy Tricks for Tricky Sorts.]
((OOC: Whew! Sorry that took a while -- I’m not used to drawing quite so many characters!! XD I’m afraid I was sort of reliant on the aesthetics you made for your kids as reference (adding Sara’s glasses that I saw in a screenshot you took from the game in another post), so I hope their clothes and overall look work for you! Funnily enough your face claim for Cara, Sadie Sink, is also my face claim for Carewyn, who of course is also a Slytherin -- so yeah, LOL, small world after all!
And thank you very much, sugar! I’m happy you like my kid and her mum. <3))
Ask Lane Cromwell!

Happy Book Birthday to HOW I RESIST!!
Congrats to editor Maureen Johnson and assistant editor Kate Linnea Welsh on the publication today of HOW I RESIST, from Wednesday Books!
An all-star collection of essays about activism and hope, edited by bestselling YA author Maureen Johnson.
Now, more than ever, young people are motivated to make a difference in a world they’re bound to inherit. They’re ready to stand up and be heard – but with much to shout about, where they do they begin? What can I do? How can I help?
How I Resist is the response, and a way to start the conversation. To show readers that they are not helpless, and that anyone can be the change. A collection of essays, songs, illustrations, and interviews about activism and hope, How I Resist features an all-star group of contributors, including, John Paul Brammer, Libba Bray, Lauren Duca, Modern Family’s Jesse Tyler Ferguson and his husband Justin Mikita, Alex Gino, Hebh Jamal, Malinda Lo, Dylan Marron, Hamilton star Javier Muñoz, Rosie O’Donnell, Junauda Petrus, Jodi Picoult, Jason Reynolds, Karuna Riazi, Maya Rupert, Dana Schwartz, Dan Sinker, Ali Stroker, Jonny Sun (aka @jonnysun), Sabaa Tahir, Shaina Taub, Daniel Watts, Jennifer Weiner, Jacqueline Woodson, and more, all edited and compiled by New York Times bestselling author Maureen Johnson.
In How I Resist, readers will find hope and support through voices that are at turns personal, funny, irreverent, and instructive. Not just for a young adult audience, this incredibly impactful collection will appeal to readers of all ages who are feeling adrift and looking for guidance.
How I Resist is the kind of book people will be discussing for years to come and a staple on bookshelves for generations.
I’m so proud to work on this book. Here’s a bit of what people are saying about it:

“Interspersed within such essays are important poems, art, and music, from which readers can draw inspiration to make mistakes, start over, try something new, and keep a positive outlook on life no matter what harsh circumstances occur. This book will be a light in the darkness for some, and help guide them from despair.” – Booklist
“This offers plenty of access points for teens looking for advice, catharsis, and/or motivation.” — The Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
“This is an impactful, contemporary guide to activism that gives voices to individuals who are making a difference in today’s tumultuous social climate. A useful classroom tool that will generate discussion around topics that matter to many young people today.” – Kirkus Reviews

The Journey
Tumblr media
Day 1: The Journey for @cursebreakerfarrier’s Back to School Challenge ; also honoring Declan’s September 1 birthday
The year he turned eleven, Declan O’Donnell-Lee hated his birthday. He didn’t hate his birthday in general, but some of the magic of a birthday was lost when you were supposed to begin a new school on it. As he stared up at the scarlet engine, his stomach began to turn. The cake that he’d had for breakfast hadn’t done much to calm his nerves, but that had been a nice surprise. The previous two years they’d had cake after dinner, after they’d dropped Dora off at the platform. Except this year, it was Declan’s turn to climb onto the train. 
“Dec, sweetheart, everything will be fine,” Mum said, running a soothing hand through his auburn hair. 
“Your mother’s right, kiddo. You’ll find your place and make friends you never even thought you would. I had never expected to meet your mother and aunt and uncles,” Dad said, clapping a hand on Declan’s shoulder. 
“Plus, Dora can show you the ropes.”
A groan came from his thirteen-year-old sister. “I’m not going to babysit him. I have my own life,” Dora responded.
“I don’t need a babysitter, Dora.” 
“And, Aunt Ruth will always be there if you’re feeling a little homesick,” Mum added. Aunt Ruth was currently the part-time charms professor, teaching the first through fourth years. 
At that moment, the train whistled and Dora gave Mum, Dad, Violet, and Brendan each a quick hug before hopping onto the train. 
“Alright, kiddo, have a great few months. Mum and I’ll write at least once a week. And again, happy birthday, Declan. I know this probably isn’t the best birthday, but there’s a little something hidden for you amongst your trunks,” Dad said, pulling Declan in for a tight hug. 
“Barnaby! You weren’t supposed to tell him that. It was supposed to be a surprise. Anyways, have a great few months, sweetheart. I love you. And yes, happy birthday, Dec,” Mum said, pulling him into another hug. 
“Love you, too,” Declan murmured, hugging them back. 
He let out a slow breath and climbed onto the train. He leaned out of the window, waving furiously to his parents and younger siblings as they began to disappear from view. He started as a hand clapped his shoulder.
“Happy birthday, Dec. Now, I’m going to find my friends. Find somewhere to sit and I’ll cheer you on when you get sorted,” Dora said. “And relax. Everything will be fine. Mum and Dad are right, Aunt Ruth will be there if you have any issues.”

The Lynch-O’Donnell Family Tree
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The first tree is dedicated to the O’Donnell family, while the second one is dedicated to the Lynch family. They both follow the six most recent generations, although both can be traced back much further. They joined together in the fourth generation with the marriage of Seán O’Donnell (b. 1936) and Ailis Lynch (b. 1936), thus sharing both the fifth and sixth generations. The fifth generation is solely made up of Seán and Ailis’s five children and their spouses, while the sixth generation is made up of Seán and Ailis’s grandchildren as Ailis’s brother, Doyle (b. 1925), never married and died childless.
John O’Donnell (b. 1835) is the first recorded member of this O’Donnell family. Due to a combination of poverty, invasion, war, and language barriers, the previous family members’ names have been lost to history.
The Lynch family can be traced back to the early 1660s with a Slytherin wizard named Cathal Lynch. There are numerous Lynch family members, much more than are shown on the family tree. Most are related to Bain’s siblings.
You may notice that Niamh Kelly (b. 1875) is included in this family tree. It has combined information from the Tadhg Lives AU and the canon timeline. The main difference is the death years. In that timeline, Tadhg dies in 1897 at the age of twenty-three, while Cillian dies in 1931 and Orla dies in 1913. Niamh and her children with Tadhg do not really exist in that timeline.

Tumblr media
Both former Ravenclaws, Seán O’Donnell and Ailis Lynch were married on May 29, 1962. Ailis had recently turned twenty-six, while Seán was a few weeks shy of his twenty-sixth birthday. They loved each other dearly, and had their first child, Cian, in early 1965. It took eight years for them to have another child and in summer 1973, Seán and Ailis had quadruplets, Ryan, Cara, Sara, and Conor. Ailis died a year later. Four years after Ailis died, Seán died as well.
Cian had always been closer to his mother, so her death hit him very hard. He never quite recovered from losing her, so the subsequent losses of his father, grandparents, and love interest hit him very hard.
Faceclaims: Pierce Brosnan and Stephanie Zimbalist
Siblings: Ryan Michael O’Donnell ; Cara Rose O’Donnell ; Sara Ailis O’Donnell ; Conor Lorcan O’Donnell 
Tumblr media
Born on August 18, 1973, Ryan, Cara, Sara, and Conor are eight years younger than Cian and are quadruplets. Starting Hogwarts in 1984, the quads were each sorted into a different house with Ryan in Gryffindor, Cara in Slytherin, Sara in Hufflepuff, and Conor in Ravenclaw. They also began investigating the Cursed Vaults, just as Cian had.
Cian never had a close relationship with Ryan, Cara, Sara, and Conor for multiple reasons. There was the eight year age gap, which meant that Cian often wasn’t interested in hanging out with little kids and he never wanted to do much with them as babies either. There was the strong bond the younger four O’Donnell siblings had. This was probably the biggest reason and Cian held a bit of resentment towards this close bond. He often felt like they didn’t need, or care, about him. 
Faceclaims: Jaeden Martell, Sadie Sink, Malina Weissman, and Jack Moore
Grandparents:
Lorcan Ryan O’Donnell [deceased, 1905-1979]
Rose Marie O’Donnell née Boyle [deceased, 1906-1979]
Conor Ryan Lynch [deceased, 1900-1964]
Ciara Mary Lynch née Mallon [deceased, 1900-1964]
Uncle: Doyle Brannigan Lynch [deceased, 1925-1998]
After the deaths of his paternal grandparents, Cian and his siblings were placed in the custody of their mother’s older brother, Doyle, who was born on December 13, 1925. A cold and calculating man, Doyle instantly noticed the weakness in his eldest nephew. He exploited that weakness, playing into the boy’s grief and manipulating Cian into doing his bidding. 
Cian hero worshiped his uncle a lot during his time at Hogwarts. He thought that Doyle could do no wrong and grew blind to the things that Doyle was doing to him and his siblings. That hero worship diminished during his time in the portrait vault, but he was never able to look beyond the lies that Doyle had installed in him.
Nieces: Theodora Ailis “Dora” O’Donnell-Lee ; Violet Cara O’Donnell-Lee ; Keira Willow Khanna-O’Donnell ; Winifred Ailis O’Donnell ; Namoi Ailis O’Donnell 
Nephews: Declan Ryan O’Donnell-Lee ; Brendan Conor O’Donnell-Lee ; Michael George O’Donnell ; Seth Lorcan O’Donnell ; Ciaran Judah O’Donnell 
Siblings-in-law: Penelope Dawn “Penny” Haywood ; Rowan Indu Khanna ; Barnaby Abernathy Lee ; Ruth Abigail Lyman
Friends: Duncan Ashe, Olivia Green 
Love Interest: Duncan Ashe 
Tumblr media
Cian first began crushing on Duncan in his fifth year. They had been best friends since meeting on the Hogwarts Express and Cian had always known that he felt something different for Duncan. Over the course of the year, his crush on Duncan only grew and eventually, Cian realized that he was in love with Duncan. However, Cian never managed to get the courage to ask Duncan out and just as he had begun planning to ask Duncan on a date, Duncan was killed. 
Duncan’s death was the final straw for Cian. He threw himself into the Cursed Vaults, neglecting his other friendships, classes, and everything else. He had no time for anything else and grief sunk its claws deeper into him.
Pets: None
Tumblr media
✧ HISTORY & BACKGROUND ✧
Hometown: County Donegal, Ireland 
Pre-Hogwarts Childhood: 
Cian Jacob O’Donnell was born on January 18, 1965 to Seán and Ailis O’Donnell in Dublin, Ireland. The first eight years of his life were stable and full of love. That began to change when his mother announced that she was pregnant… with the quadruplets.
Cian’s baby siblings, Ryan Michael, Cara Rose, Sara Ailis, and Conor Lorcan were born prematurely on August 18, 1973. His life did a complete 180 and Cian could never quite figure out if it was a good thing or a bad thing. He knew how much his parents had wanted another child. But years later, knowing their fates, Cian couldn’t help but wonder if the quadruplets were just a catalyst for what came after.
A little less than one year later, Ailis fell seriously, and mysteriously, ill. No one was able to identify a cause or a cure and Ailis O’Donnell passed, peacefully, on August 2, 1974. Cian was heartbroken and never really recovered from losing her.
The next two years passed in a blur, as his father adapted to being a single father of five. Cian’s paternal grandparents moved in and provided a lot of assistance. There wasn’t enough time, or caring adults, to adequately notice how grief was sinking its claws into the boy, though.
Hogwarts Years:
In 1976, Cian began attending Hogwarts. He was quickly sorted into Gryffindor, although the hat did consider Slytherin for a moment. Hogwarts seemed to do some good for the boy… until news came in April of 1978 that Seán had been killed in an automobile wreck. Cian sunk inwards on himself, lashing out and then the Cursed Vaults fell into his lap.
The Vaults distracted him from the grief of three successive losses in less than eighteen months and Cian quickly became obsessed with them. The obsession coupled with the intensifying grief and loneliness made Cian an easy target for his manipulative uncle, Doyle Lynch as Cian and his siblings had been placed in Doyle’s custody following the deaths of their father and grandparents.
The tipping point, though, came when Cian was sixteen when his best friend, and crush, Duncan Ashe was killed. Unable to cope in a healthy way, Cian threw himself even deeper into the Cursed Vaults. It ultimately led up to Cian’s expulsion and entrapment in the Portrait Vault.
Adulthood:
For eight long years, Cian was trapped in the Vault, his mind slowly warping with an intense grief and guilt. Then, in June of 1989, Cian was released from the Portrait Vault by his younger siblings. He was unable to recognize them, as they’d grown so much bigger than the eight-year-olds Cian remembered.
He fled from Hogwarts, and sunk into hiding, unsure of how to cope with the burden on his chest and an intense desire for acceptance.
When the second war began, Cian’s yearning for acceptance had grown stronger. He’d never felt fully accepted by his siblings, the four sharing a bond that was too much for him to feel involved. This resulted in Cian feigning an alliance with the Death Eaters for about ten weeks. He never became a death eater or even subscribed to their ideology, though. His grandparents had been muggles and Cian had always held them in the highest of esteem, along with his own parents. Eventually, in December of 1997, Cian fled once again, deserting the war.
He worked on and off for the remaining years of his life, working odd jobs for anyone who would spare some money.
Old Age & Death: 
In 2002, desolate and miserable, Cian fell fatally ill. He died, penniless, alone, and nearly unrecognizable, in the ward of magical bugs at Leighis Hospital in Dublin. His body was identified by his sister, Sara, a healer who had never discovered that her oldest brother was a patient in her hospital until he had already passed.
He was laid to rest next to his parents and grandparents. His headstone reads: A man who never recovered from the loss life dealt him. Here lies Cian Jacob O’Donnell. January 18, 1965–December 13, 2002. Brother, son, friend.
Tumblr media
✧ MISCELLANEOUS ✧
Trivia:
Cian physically aged in the portrait vault and kept his hair long, even after he was released.
As mentioned, Cian was almost a hatstall between Gryffindor and Slytherin. He was sorted into Gryffindor in about four minutes and fifty-five seconds, thus making him just under a hatstall.
Cian doesn’t really like the person that he has become. He’s very conflicted about himself in general, though.
Cian never knew what career that he wanted to pursue. He was focused on the Vaults and on gaining his uncle’s approval and also R’s approval. He eventually settled on being either an auror or curse-breaker. However, once he’s freed from the Vaults, he doesn’t pursue any career. He just kinda traveled everywhere after, aimlessly wandering.
Cian can be a bit spineless and has a desire to gain people’s approval, which makes him do stupid things. 
Cian is the great-grandson of Cillian Lynch and Orla O’Rourke. Their son, Conor Ryan, is Cian’s maternal grandfather, although Conor passed away before Cian was born.
When Ailis O’Donnell died, an ancient protection magic wove itself into her five children. While it didn’t do all that much for her eldest son, who was nine at the time, it did provide much protection to her younger four children, aged eleven months. Its power wasn’t based on who was loved more. No, this magic’s power was influenced more by the children’s ages than anything else, really. Her eldest, at nine, never managed to recover from the grief and over the next seven years, her son’s destructive grief overpowered the magic. Her younger four, being much younger, had no memory of Ailis and so, the grief they held was different, less oppressive than her eldest son’s. Thus, it was able to be strengthened over time as it fed on the love and bond that always held steadfast for the quadruplets.
Cian is a bit of a foil for my other iteration of the Jacob character, Sawyer Fitzgerald.

The Lynch-O’Donnell Lineage — Ask Game!
Thanks @kathrynalicemc for hosting this challenge! It gave me the opportunity to update this family and to expand on some things!
1.) Canon or Fiction? If your family is completely original: Where did the Family name come from? What was your inspiration and who was the first OC you created for it?
Both surnames were chosen because they were Irish. O’Donnell is a popular surname in Donegal, and as the family is located in Donegal, it made sense. I do not remember why I chose the surname “Lynch.”
Technically, the first OCs created for it were Ryan and Sara. I had the HPHM game on two devices and the main characters were Ryan (who had multiple iterations before I settled on his final form) and Sara. However, it’s hard to separate their creation from the creation of Cara and Conor. The four of them are a packaged deal.
2.) Family Ties: What other families are related/connected to this one? Are they Canon families or creator made families? (Tag them!)
Aside from three canon HPHM families, all of the currently related families are my own design. Very few are actually developed, though. Now, here are the confirmed marriages:
Bain Lynch married Clodagh MacCarthy
Cillian Lynch married Orla O’Rourke
Tadhg Lynch married Niamh Kelly
Conor Lynch married Ciara Mallon
Ailis Lynch married Seán O’Donnell
Lorcan O’Donnell married Rose Boyle
Ryan O’Donnell married Penny Haywood
Cara O’Donnell married Rowan Khanna
Sara O’Donnell married Barnaby Lee
Conor O’Donnell married Ruth Lyman
3.) Foundations: What year and which OC was the founder of the family line? If the family goes back hundreds of years and you don’t know the first member, tell us about the oldest OC in the family you have created.
The Lynch family really came into existence in the early 1600s with a wizard named Cathal. However, my oldest developed OC is Bain, the abusive and neglectful father of Cillian and Tadhg who dies shortly before the twins’ 13th birthday.
The O’Donnell family goes back for hundreds of years, but the first known person was a man named John, who was born in 1835. However, my oldest developed OC is Lorcan O’Donnell, the quads’ beloved grandfather who died when they were five.
4.) Fun Facts: Do you have any misc lore you have that you haven’t had a chance to post about? Talk about anything you like!
For this, I’ve decided to expand a little on some of my other families as I can’t think of any Lynch or O’Donnell lore!
The Kennedy family’s political dynasty began during the regency period, when Dermot Kennedy gained a seat in the Wizengamot.
Max Pembroke passes by his cousins in the halls of Hogwarts, but never knows it. His mother was disowned for having the gall to marry a muggle sailor.
I’m still not quite sure about what happened to Edmund and Eleanora Whitten, but I know that a bog was involved.
The Battersea family’s surname changed over the years. No one has a record of what it first was though and the family’s exact roots are long forgotten.
5.) Free Space: Feel free to ask any creator a question not listed here and maybe you will get one in return! 
Please send some in! I’ll work on getting some sent out, so please let me know if you’d like one! I’m also opening questions up for any of my other families, but I’d really like to try and stay with the O’Donnell and Lynch families.

Happy Birthday to the quads!
What would each of them say was their best hogwarts memory?
Tumblr media
Ryan: “My best memory from Hogwarts is either winning the quidditch cup or my first date with Penny, even though we didn’t have much of a relationship until much later.”
Tumblr media
Cara: “Those few times where I was in my animagus form in the dorm and scared the hell out of my roommates. It might not be my absolute favorite memory at Hogwarts, but it’s a great one.”
Tumblr media
Sara: “My favorite memory from Hogwarts is when I first started dating Barnaby and we were in this little bubble where it was just the two of us. It was just nice because there were no expectations from anyone and it could just be the two of us learning more about one another.”
Tumblr media
Conor: “My f-favorite memory is b-being the f-first person to m-m-master non-verbal m-magic in defense and proving that I’m j-j-j-just as in… intelligent as everyone else.”

Happy birthday to the O'Donnell Quads!
Favourite birthday memory?
Tumblr media
Ryan’s favorite birthday memory is his seventeenth birthday when his close friends threw him and his siblings a surprise party. It was just a fun memory and it really helped celebrate such an important moment in the wizarding world.
Tumblr media
Cara’s favorite birthday memory is her eleventh birthday when she and her siblings received their Hogwarts letters. It was also memorable because she and her siblings snuck out to Donegal Town, which was near where they had lived with their grandparents and parents.
Tumblr media
Sara’s favorite birthday memory is her twenty-sixth birthday. It was her first as a mother and was celebrated big, especially by Barnaby and a six-week-old Val.
Tumblr media
Conor’s favorite birthday memory is his fourth birthday. It’s very, very fuzzy but it’s one of the few memories that he has of his father. That makes it extremely special to him.

First things first, a very happy birthday to my favorite set of quadruplets! Onto the question, how do they feel about and respond to the usual, weird questions that people from a multiple birth get? For example: "can you read each other's minds?", "if I pinch him, will you feel it?" and "which one of you is the evil one?". I know some twins that have complicated relationships with those questions, so I've just gotta know.
It really depends on the situation, who’s asking the questions, and what the questions are. Ryan’s more likely to answer them with ridiculous statements but a completely straight face. Cara will either answer the questions in an extremely serious manner or just roll her eyes and tell the person to move on. Sara will politely ask if the person can read their own siblings mind or whatever the question is. Conor usually just shakes his head.
There are moments were all four play along and act like they’re really considering the questions. This happened more when they were younger though.
The older they get, the less patience they have for these questions. By seventh year, it’s quite irritating and frustrating, especially when it’s by their fellow year-mates.

Going to do a fic or something for the quads' birthday. So reblog if you'd like your MC to attend their surprise party thrown by Bill, Charlie, Tonks, Penny, Barnaby and maybe a few others. Feel free to include if you think your MC would help with some party planning or what they'd give the quads (all four or some other combination).
