PATRONUS: ANY TIME HE ISN'T ON A BROOM NO, REALLY HIS PATRONUS IS PROBABLY WHEN HE GOT HIS FIRST KISS, AS CORNY AS IT SEEMS. IT WAS WITH A GIRL HE JUST REALLY LIKED. THINGS DIDN'T PAN OUT BETWEEN THEM BUT, MATT STILL LIKES HER ENOUGH TO KEEP HER AS A GOOD MEMORY. THE FORM OF HIS PATRONUS IS A OF A SLOTH.
DEMENTOR: MATTHEW'S ATTEMPT TO PLAY QUIDDITCH IN THE BACKYARD WITH HIS BROTHERS IS HIS WORST MEMORY. HE WAS TOO OCCUPIED, TRYING TO CATCH A QUAFFLE, THAT HE FLEW RIGHT SMACK DAB INTO THE SIDE OF THEIR HOUSE - LIKE A BUG HITTING A WIND SHIELD. HE SLIDE DOWN THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE, ONTO THE GROUND. HIS BROOM WAS MANGLED, AND SO WAS HIS ARM. THAT HURT HEALING.
MIRROR OF ERISED: MATTHEW WOULD JUST SEE HIS OWN REFLECT. HE WOULD SEE HIMSELF DOING A MASS OF THINGS. PLAYING QUIDDITCH, ACTING, WORKING IN VARIOUS SHOPS, WORKING AT THE MINISTRY, ACTING AS A PROPHET REPORTER, WHY? MATTHEW DOESN'T KNOW WHAT HE WANTS, TRULY.

PERSONALITY: ALRIGHTY, SO HERE WE HAVE MR. MATTHEW MACMILLAN. HE IS A PRETTY COOL KID. MATT IS USUALLY CALM, EASY-GOING, AND LAID BACK. HE'S THE GO WITH THE FLOW TYPE. HE'LL USUALLY JUST DO WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS DOING. CONFORMIST? YES, HE IS. MATT USUALLY CONFORMS WITH THE CROWD UNLESS HE DOESN'T FEEL RIGHT ABOUT IT. THEN, HE WON'T DO IT. YOU'LL FIND MATTY-MAC TO BE PRETTY CHEERFUL 99% OF THE TIME. THE ONLY WAY HE EVER GETS DOWN IS IF HE GETS DUMPED OR SOMETHING DRAMATIC.
MATTHEW IS CONSIDERATE OF OTHERS' (MAYBE NOT HIS BROTHERS SO MUCH, BROTHERLY LOVE) FEELINGS IN MOST SITUATIONS. IF ONE OF HIS MATES IS UPSET, OR SOMETHING, HE'LL DO HIS BEST TO CHEER THEM UP AND BE SYMPATHETIC. MATT FINDS HIMSELF FEELING AND ACTING EXTREMELY AWKWARD IN THOSE SITUATIONS. HE JUST FEELS..WELL, FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD, AWKWARD. HE CAN'T REALLY BE TRULY SYMPATHETIC IF HE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE OTHER PERSON, OR WHAT IT IS LIKE TO FEEL THAT WAY. MATT TENDS TO SAY HE IS SORRY A LOT, LIKE A LOT. HE IS ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE WHO SAY HE IS SORRY, EVEN IF THE SITUATION ISN'T HIS FAULT, OR FOR THE SMALLEST THING. MATT DEFINITELY OVER USES THE PHRASE.
MATTHEW DOES NOT HAVE A SINGLE CREATIVE, ARTISTIC, OR COORDINATED BONE IN HIS BODY. A LOT OF TIMES, HE WALKS INTO STUFF BECAUSE FRANKLY, HE JUST DOES NOT PAY ATTENTION TO WHERE HE IS GOING SOMETIMES. USUALLY, HE'LL JUST BARELY MISS WALKING INTO SOMETHING BUT, THEN THE NEXT MINUTE, HE'LL TRIP OVER SOMETHING, OR FALL INTO SOMETHING. HE CAN'T PLAY QUIDDITCH TO SAVE HIS LIFE. MATTY FINDS THAT TRYING TO KEEP HIMSELF ON A BROOM, FLY IT, AND ATTEMPT TO DO SOMETHING WITH A BALL AT THE SAME TIME IS RIDICULOUS. HE FAILS AT QUIDDITCH. HE ATTENDS GAMES BUT, HAS AVOIDED ANY SORT OF TRY OUT FOR THE HUFFLEPUFF TEAM.
MATTHEW IS THE KING OF PROCRASTINATORS, LIKE REALLY. HE SHOULD HOLD A PH.D IN PROCRASTINATION. HE USUALLY WAITS UNTIL THE NIGHT BEFORE SOMETHING IS DUE, OR THE MORNING OF TO DO ASSIGNMENTS. HALF THE TIME IT'S JUST BECAUSE HE FORGOT HE HAD THEM TO DO. RARELY, RARELY, DOES MATT EVER DO ANYTHING THE DAY IT'S ASSIGNED. ALL NIGHTERS HAVE BECOME HIS SPECIALTY. ANOTHER THING HE DOESN'T DO IS READ. HE HATES READING TEXT BOOKS FOR CLASSES. ITS NOT THAT HE DOESN'T LIKE LEARNING, HE DOES, HE JUST DOESN'T WANT TO HAVE TO PRACTICE WAND WORK ANY TIME OUTSIDE OF CLASS. HE MANAGES TO WING IT PRETTY, AND HE DOES OKAY FOR HIMSELF. THE BOY IS NOT A GENIUS BUT, HE'S NOT A COMPLETE IDIOT. HE HAS COMMON SENSE. BESIDES, HALF OF THIS STUFF STUDENTS ARE TAUGHT, HE THINKS HE'LL NEVER USE.
MATT IS THE TRUSTING SORT. PERHAPS A LITTLE TOO TRUSTING. HE'LL TELL YOU HIS LIFE STORY AND NON-EXISTENT DEEP DARK SECRETS IN A HEART BEAT, WITHOUT EVEN THINKING YOU MIGHT RUN AWAY WITH THEM AND TELL THE WHOLE WORLD. EVEN IF YOU DID, HE PROBABLY WOULD NOT GIVE A RATS ASS. MATTHEW DOESN'T REALLY CARE WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT HIM, HE'S SLIGHTLY INSENSITIVE OR INDIFFERENT TO WHAT IS SAID ABOUT HIM. IT'S JUST PART OF BEING AT SCHOOL. PEOPLE SAY STUFF, AND THINGS JUST GET SPREAD AROUND, BLOWN OUT OF PROPORTION. HE DOESN'T LET ANY GOSSIP OR RUMORS GET TO HIM AT ALL.
MATTHEW HATES BODY ODOR. HE HATES SMELLING BAD. HE HATES SWEATING BECAUSE IT MAKES HIM SMELL BAD - BUT, DON'T THINK HE WON'T DO ANY PHYSICAL LABOR. HE WILL, HE'LL JUST COMPLAIN TO HIMSELF ABOUT IT AND IMMEDIATELY TAKE A HOT, HOT, SHOWER AND SCRUB HIMSELF CLEAN. HE IS SORT OF PARANOID OF SMELLING BAD. HE BATHS ONCE, SOMETIMES TWICE A DAY. MATTHEW PREFERS TO LOOK GOOD. HE HATES IT IF HIS BODY LOOKS FLABBY. YOU CAN FIND HIM RUNNING/JOGGING AROUND THE GROUNDS BEFORE BREAKFAST OR IN THE EVENING BEFORE CURFEW.
IF YOU ARE FRIENDS WITH MATTY, YOU JUST ACQUIRED YOURSELF THE MOST LOYAL FRIEND YOU'LL EVER HAVE. DEEP, DEEP, DOWN, MATTHEW TREASURES ALL HIS FRIENDSHIPS. FRIENDS ARE IMPORTANT TO HAVE. HE IS GLAD TO HAVE THE CIRCLE OF FRIENDS HE DOES HAVE. MATT COULD CARE LESS WHAT AGE YOU OR, OR WHAT HOUSE YOU ARE IN. IF HE LIKES YOU, FINDS YOU HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON WITH HIM, WELL TO HIM YOU ARE HIS FRIEND - EVEN IF YOU DON'T TALK EVER DAY, ALL THE TIME. A FRIEND IS A FRIEND. DESPITE HOW CLOSE HE MAY BE WITH A FRIEND, HE'LL HELP WHENEVER HE CAN. IF YOU ARE GOING THROUGH A TOUGH TIME, HE'LL DO IS BEST TO CHEER YOU UP (AWKWARDLY, AT FIRST). HE LIKES TO KNOW THAT PEOPLE LIKE HIM, AND TRUST HIM ENOUGH TO TELL HIM THEIR SECRETS, IF THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE ENOUGH. YOUR SECRET WILL GO THE GRAVE WITH HIM. HE ISN'T A BLABBER MOUTH. HE'LL LIE IF HE HAS TO IN ORDER TO NOT TELL THE SECRET.
LYING. WHILE MATTHEW DOESN'T DO IT ALL THE TIME, HE CAN AND DOES. ONLY, MATT USUALLY KEEPS IT DOWN TO LITTLE WHITE LIES, NOTHING IMPORTANT. OTHER THAN THAT, HE'S A PRETTY HONEST LAD. IF HE DOESN'T HAVE A REASON TO LIE, HE WON'T. HE WILL TELL THE TRUTH WHEN THE TRUTH NEEDS TO BE SAID. IF THE TRUTH DOESN'T, THAN HE EITHER WON'T SAY ANYTHING, OR WILL COME UP WITH A LIE.
LASTLY, WHEN MATTHEW IS WITH A GIRL, LIKE HE ACTUALLY HAS A GIRLFRIEND (HE'S HAD ONLY TWO AND A FEW DATES THAT WENT NO WHERE) HE TENDS TO BE A BIT OVER PROTECTIVE, AND JEALOUSLY STRIKES HIM EASILY. MATTY IS TRYING TO WORK ON IT. HE DOESN'T MIND IF HE GIRLFRIENDS HAVE FRIENDS WHO ARE GUYS, HE HAS FRIENDS OF BOTH SEXES. MATT JUST KNOWS THAT SINCE HE IS A GUY, AND CERTAIN THINGS ARE ALWAYS ON HIS MIND, THAT OTHER GUYS PROBABLY HAVE THE SAME IDEAS IN THEIR HEADS. SO, HE WANTS TO PROTECT HIMSELF FROM GETTING HURT BY SOMETIMES BEING A LITTLE STAND OFFISH, AND MAKING IT CLEAR TO EVERYONE THAT HIS GIRL IS HIS GIRL. OH, AND IT SHOULD BE NOTED MATTHEW JUST CAN'T FLIRT. LIKE HE CAN BUT, HE USES THOSE CHEESY PICK UP LINES, YOU KNOW THE KIND THAT ARE SO CHEESY THAT HE EITHER GETS LAUGHED AND THE GIRL WALKS AWAY, OR (WITH SOME HOPE) THE GIRL FINDS IT CUTE AT HIS HORRIBLE ABILITY TO FLIRT AND GIVES HIM A CHANCE.
NATIONALITY: BRITISH
HOME TOWN: NOTTINGHAM, ENGLAND
PARENTS: ERNIE MACMILLAN & CORRINE MACMILLAN
SIBLINGS: BROTHER: --- MACMILLAN SISTERS: --- MACMILLAN & --- MACMILLAN
PET: BROWN/WHITE BARN OWL NAMED ARNOLD
HISTORY: MATTHEW WAS BORN TO THE MACMILLAN FAMILY. YAY. HE WAS JOINED JUST A YEAR LATER BY TRIPLETS, TWO SISTERS AND ONE BROTHER. GROWING UP WITH A BROTHER AND SISTERS WAS ACTUALLY REALLY COOL FOR MATT. THEY DID EVERYTHING TOGETHER, AND THE FOUR ARE PRETTY CLOSE. MATT USUALLY IS THE ONE THAT ENDS UP BEING TEASED BECAUSE HIS LACK OF COORDINATION. IT WAS IN GOOD FUN, AND PUT THE BROTHERS TO BE CLOSER.
WELL, WHEN THE TIME CAME, MATTHEW GOT AN ACCEPTANCE LETTER TO HOGWARTS. HE WAS PRETTY RELUCTANT TO GO. HE WAS TOO COMFORTABLE AT HOME. MATT DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE IT. HE DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE HIS ROOM, HIS BED. SLEEPING IN SOME BED THAT PROBABLY HAS BEEN SLEEPING IN FOR YEARS BEFORE HAND JUST DID NOT SEEM ALL THAT GREAT. HIS ELDER BROTHER GLORIFIED HOGWARTS, AND WAS NICE ENOUGH TO LET LITTLE BROTHER HANG AROUND WITH HIM AND HIS FRIENDS ON THE TRAIN RIDE TO HOGSMEADE. HOWEVER, AFTER GETTING OFF THE TRAIN, MATTHEW WAS ON HIS OWN. HE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THE HELL THEY MAKE THIS SO NERVE WRECKING FOR FIRST YEARS. FIRST OFF, THEY HAVE TO GO ACROSS THIS GIANT LAKE, AT NIGHT. FIRST YEARS DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT'S IN THAT LAKE., A GIANT SQUID THAT COULD EAT THEM ALL FOR A MIDNIGHT SNACK IF IT WANTED. THEN, THEY HAVE WAIT IN THE EMPTY ROOM, AND BE PARADED INTO THE GREAT HALL, CALLED DOWN TO PUT ON THE SORTING HAT LIKE SOME MUGGLE GAME SHOW. LET'S JUST SAY, MATTHEW WAS NOT ALL FOND OF GOING THROUGH THE PROCESS.
AFTER THE STRESSFUL SORTING, MATTHEW WAS GLAD HE COULD JOIN HUFFLEPUFF. THIS WAS PRETTY AWESOME.FOR HIS FIRST THREE YEARS AT HOGWARTS, MATTHEW ACTUALLY DID HIS HOMEWORK. YES, THERE WAS A TIME WHEN MATTHEW WAS QUITE STUDIOUS. NOW, WELL, NOT SO MUCH. HE GREW UP TO BE A TEENAGE BOY. THERE ARE BETTER THINGS TO DO THAT SIT AND WRITE ESSAYS ABOUT POTIONS YOU'LL NEVER MAKE AGAIN IN YOUR LIFE TIME.
MATTHEW HAS COME UP ON HIS FINAL YEAR AT HOGWARTS. HE REALLY CAN'T BELIEVE HE MADE IT TO HIS SEVENTH YEAR. IT'S CRAZY TO THINK THAT NEXT YEAR, HE WON'T BE AT HOGWARTS. WHICH MEANS HE WILL HAVE TO GET OFF HIS LAZY ARSE AND GET A JOB. WHAT SORT OF JOB? HE REALLY HAS NO IDEA. MATTY PROBABLY WON'T GET AROUND TO MAKING A DECISION UNTIL AFTER BEING HOME FOR A FEW WEEKS, OR WHEN HIS PARENTS FORCE HIM TO.
