✯ Lev Afanasyev ~ Koldostvoretz ~ Second Year ✯


Lev was born in a hard-working family. When he was young, he would watch as his family grow potatoes, tomatoes, and many other things in their own little дача. [a seasonal or year-round second home, typically located in the countryside outside of a major city, common in Russia and other post-Soviet countries] At around five he started helping, and he loved to do it. Lev had many family members, all living in one house; his parents, grandmother, three siblings, and one half-sibling. It was a lot, but it was fun. In the summer, he would play games, water fights and help grow crops. In the winter, he bought food from the shops, if they did not have any of their own vegetables left, and played in the snow, building snowmen, sliding down on sledges. The snow was a good one too; at least two feet tall, and if you stood on a spot for two long you would sink right down to the floor and soak your wellies.
When he was not at his дача, Lev lived in Petrushino, a small village in Moscow, Russia. He had a large house with a green roof, and he adored it too. Often, his family would go to Novosibirsk, where a couple of his relatives lived. So, between the дача, Petrushino, and Novosibirsk, Lev traveled a lot, but he had a lot of friends wherever he went.
He was a very likable boy, with good manners, and he was especially good at mathematics. In Russia, they took work very seriously, so Lev was very tired after school. Apart from this, he was a gifted musician, and had lessons early in the morning when it was still dark. After piano lessons, he had school, and left school so exhausted that he would always be ready to fall right asleep.

Lev loved his family, and the days he spent there every day. He had never wanted any more - well, until his letter from Koldostvoretz arrived.
✰ First Magic: ✰
All of Lev's family were muggles, (apart from his grandad on his father's side and great grandmother on his mother's side, but he never knew this) and so it was a real surprise when he had his first incident of magic. It all happened like this.

At the age of almost ten, Lev was walking to school from his piano lesson one day, when the sun had just came up and was very warming against the cold breeze (it was mid-winter). When he entered the class, he remembered that he had forgotten his homework. He couldn't dash right out of the classroom to do it; his teacher would be suspicious! All he could do was wait and face the concequences. He got really agitated; his teacher hated when he didn't hand something in on time. He supposed, when he looked back on this moment, that it was because he was so nervous that his magic worked. He handed her a blank page, screwing his eyes shut. Then the teacher eyed it, scratching her neck.
"Молодец," she commented with a raised eyebrow (which means 'well done' in Russian) and handed it back to him. He was sure it was sarcasm... before he saw the page was full of algebra, written in his tiny, curly handwriting. Lev gasped, hoping his teacher didn't notice.
Reducio
This ency is very, VERY boring, ik. I'll make it better when I have time ^^

If you worry, don't do it. If you do it, don't worry.
