Cedric Diggory -7-

Not being enough despite their efforts. Failing at key moments. Being valued only for their achievements and not for who they truly are.

Cedric's jealousy isn't loud or impulsive; it's quiet, dense, like a shadow lengthening at the end of the day. It stems primarily from his strong sense of duty and his tendency to take emotional responsibility even when he shouldn't. He's not jealous out of possessiveness, but out of fear of falling short. When he senses someone important to him paying attention to another person, he doesn't react with anger, but with an almost cruel introspection: he wonders what he lacks, where he failed, why he wasn't enough. The causes are often linked to unfair comparisons with himself, especially with more impulsive or charismatic people. Internally, he demands perfection, and when he doesn't achieve it, jealousy turns into guilt. The consequences are subtle but profound: he becomes more reserved, tries harder, and smiles less. He may distance himself so as not to get in the way, mistakenly believing that he's protecting others. However, this jealousy also pushes him to grow: to train harder, to listen better, to care more attentively. In Cedric, zeal hurts, but it never corrupts; it is a wound that bleeds inwards and makes him more human.

Amos Diggory's only son. A close and affectionate relationship, with high expectations that Cedric tries to meet without losing his integrity.

injustice, contempt for the weak, arrogance, cheating, disappointing those who trust him, unnecessary conflicts.

Quidditch training, studying in the library when it's almost empty, helping others without making a fuss, walking around the grounds at sunset, hot tea in winter, challenges that demand consistency rather than brilliance.

Tall, athletic, and well-proportioned. Dark brown hair, slightly wavy, always somewhat tousled with a natural elegance. Gray eyes, clear and attentive. Symmetrical features, defined jawline, easy but restrained smile. Upright posture, a calm presence that doesn't need to be imposing.

Noble, fair, empathetic. Responsible without being rigid. Competitive only with himself. Courageous without boasting. Protective, observant, with a deep-rooted sense of honor.
