✧ ₊˚ˑ༄ؘDrew Filch is a squib. Yup! That's right! And she would like you to know that it sucks. Drew thinks that the best way to describe it is when something is so close, you can feel it, but the person on the other end, is constantly tugging it away from you, just that little bit out of reach. She was the pig, and being a witch was the carrot that the universe was constantly hanging over her nose.
Growing up a Squib started out fine. A little depressing, a little unfortunate, but she grew to live with the fact that magic? Would never be her's. Her mum was a witch. May she rest in peace. Yup! That's also right! To add to Drew Filch's sob story of her teenage life, her mother died when she was fourteen, and suddenly the light of her life, was ripped away from her, and that carrot suddenly got a heck of a lot further away. Her mother was her teacher ─ in all aspects of life. Maths, English, a bit of French (although Drew would like to make it clear she was terrible and any native French would probably talk fancy shit about her behind her back), and when she was lucky, her mum would show her some magic. But that was the closest she ever got to it. Because every Squib knows, they will never quite get there.
Drew's father's tried. Quite hard, at that, actually. But no matter the reading he did, or handbooks he bought, Argus Filch would never quite get there either. And so he turned to his work. Widowed, and magic-less, he got a job as a caretaker for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and Drew learned that he quite liked it there. Mrs Norris ─ Argus' pride and joy. Sometimes Drew thinks her father loves his cat more than her ─ had a nice home, it was okay pay, and he got to spend all of his time surrounded by magic.
And so, after two years of hearing great things about the Wizarding School, Drew said, why not? And decided at age sixteen, to hop on a train to Scotland, and help her dad out as caretaker.
