Augusta Dionysus | 18 comments Ivory House: The Romantics.

Emblem/Insignia: The Sun and Moon

description

Characteristics: Ivories strive to find the light in every situation. They are a force of positivity, and search for enlightenment through knowledge. Light is sacred to Ivories, and their most cherished places are those with wide-open spaces and/or plenty of windows to let the light in. The sun and moon represent Ivory House, as the sun illuminates the day, and the moon illuminates the darkness. Ivories are a force of light and hope for others, and they strive to spread this light wherever they tread.

description description description description

Activities: Ivories love art in all forms, as long as it possesses ample sentiment. Having heartfelt discussions with loved ones, engaging in literary analysis, and being creative are all preferred pastimes for members of Ivory House. Whether alone or with company, there is nothing Ivories strive for more than exemplifying the light and beauty of the world.

description description description description

Fashion: Depending on the situation, Ivories dress in light garments that offer freedom of movement, or choose practical, business-like clothing, whether modern or vintage. Ivories prefer shades of white or neutral colors. Jewelry is a common accessory, and anything that reveals the individual's personality.

description description description description

Locations: Ivories adore well-lit, wide-open spaces with ample light. High-ceilinged buildings, Greek temples, marble libraries—anywhere with lots of space and lots of windows is an ideal place for a member of Ivory House.

Ivory Icons: Amanda Gorman, Carley Fortune, L.M. Montgomery, Dolly Parton, John Keats, and Reese Witherspoon

Guardian of Ivory House: Theia: Goddess of Light

message 23: by becs (new)

becs | 1 comments Hi all i'm Becca!!! You are sound so fun and interesting, i'm glad to be here with you...I got Ivory House as well, which correlates with my being in Ravenclaw House, and what' even more funny is that I have a tattoo that looks almost JUST like the ivory house insignia, that's a little too coincidental to me...lol
I LOVE reading, talking to new people, trying new things, I love my hot beverages like coffee and tea, I love nature and plants, and of course those light, open spaces with tons of windows, believe me when I tell you I would do anything for an indoor outdoor porch. I love music, analyzing movies/shows/big movie buff, I like baking every once in awhile and I enjoy cooking, and weirdly grocery shopping for this reason, and I also enjoy learning new languages but funnily enough I'm only fluent in English and semi fluent in Spanish lol

Jacqueline (thereaderx1f4da) | 23 comments Hey 👋 hey 👋, new book mate to the house of Ivory. I am 44 years old and I love to read since I can remember, I own three bookshelves 📚and still I have an overflow of books 📚 lol 😝 some even live in tote bags. I also have FOMO when it comes to books and I also love to browse the internet for hours looking for new reads or googling for old books: literature; horror; mystery; supernatural;suspense; young reads; some memoirs; thrillers are some of the genres that I enjoy 😊 most! I look forward to reading and befriending/following. Thanks for having me on! 🍾🥂🍷🍻🍹🍸🥃🎉🎊house of Ivory woohoo 🙌🏼 🎉🎊

message 29: by paulina (new)

paulina (kittenkowski) | 1 comments hiiiii ivory house friends! 🥹

I’m very into music - I’m a twenty one pilots girly forever, and have gotten back into my love for reading over the last year.

I work at an animal shelter as their behavior supervisor, & reading is an escape from the reality of working in animal welfare post-covid. Work is hard, but i love all the new animals i get to meet day in and day out.

I’m a romantsy girl through and through, love me some historical fiction but am always open to reading different genres to broaden my horizons.

I love making new friends (especially bookish ones, i don’t have many irl)

I look forward to making new besties here & am always looking for a new buddy read!

message 35: by Allen (new)

Allen Richard | 1 comments Hi everyone! I'm Allen. This house feels like an accurate fit. I'm 34, gay, working in healthcare but looking for a job in Graphic Design. I love reading horror, lgbt fiction, some light sci-fi and fantasy, graphic novels and manga. I know I shouldn't, but I do judge a book by it's cover and my interest in a book is often based on the cover art (lol). :)


message 36: by Kev (new)

Kev | 5 comments Hey guys!
My name is Kevin and according to my quiz result, it seems like I’m supposed to be in here. idk if that makes me a hopeless romantic but that’s a discussion for a different day.

Some things I love:
Mysteries and Thrillers, particularly ones with main characters that either joined the military (some sort of SF unit, have a soft spot for Navy SEALS) or worked in counterintelligence (have a soft spot for MI5 or MI6 agents but the CIA works too.)
Historical Fiction, particularly ones that take place in Europe, bonus if it’s setting is in the past. Also a big fan of ancient history, particularly ancient Rome.

Outside the literary world, I love long walks on the beach, rowing and water (anything having to do with the navy and ships), playing basketball and football (in the European sense, the one where it’s actually kicked) and hanging out with friends/watching sports at very public places. I’m also an unapologetic Swiftie and a bit of a foodie😉😁

message 39: by Ava (new)

Ava Lynne | 1 comments Hello <3 my name is Ava and I've recently come out of a huge reading slump, but I've fallen back in love with books and now I'm here to stay. ^^ Aside from reading I like to crochet, listen to Lana Del Rey, and watch movies. You all seem lovely and I'm glad we share the same house!

message 44: by Christabel (new)

Christabel Simpson (christabelq) | 5 comments Hey, I'm another Ivory gal and I'm super excited to meet y'all😊😊 My friends call me Chrissy and apart from reading (which I'm sure is pretty much a given interest for everyone on here), I like writing, dance (watching and doing), music, ancient Egypt, sewing, paranormal research, cosplay, photography and a bunch of other random stuff.


message 45: by Calyx (new)

Calyx Chaos (calyxbooks) | 2 comments Ivory for the win! Ironic since my favorite color is black… but I’m all about that romance so seems about right. I did have an issue with the question about what I would wear because leggings and giant t shirts wasn’t an option. I’m all about cozy comfort!


message 46: by Jaelynn (new)

Jaelynn (this_jaelynn) | 2 comments Hello hello! New member of the Ivory House here! My name is Jaelynn and I can definitely be a romantic in my approach to life. I love soft colors and textures and finding beauty in the world!

I've loved books my whole life, and now I work as a storyteller and children's programmer at a library and get to have fun with books and stories every day at work and play a role in developing a love of reading in future generations, which I absolutely love, and I fill my free time with reading, art, hobbies, hiking, and spending time with loved ones!

It's nice to meet all you lovely people!

message 49: by R.L. (new)

R.L. | 8 comments Hi, everyone! So nice to meet y'all (and so cool to browse through this thread and read everyone's interests—the quiz really did sort us accurately!) Classics and fantasy are my favorite to read, though I'll happily read almost any genre if the story hooks me. I'm also a writer, sing opera, and dabble in watercolor.
