LeBeau: "Which leaves the harder part, the main reason I contacted you today. Okay, here's the deal - you are now at the center of one of the biggest international custody battles of all time. Both your mother's family, the French de la Noirs, and your father's family, the British Ivansons, are both incredibly influential. Economically, between your father's will, in which he left everything to your mother and then you, and your mother's will, which left you everything she owned, including the house and her family inheritance, you could support yourself until you come of age even with boarding school tuition if you budget it right. But it would be illegal for you to go without some sort of guardianship. Both the Ivansons and the de la Noirs have good, equal claim. Each family claims total custody, to the point where you won't even see the other family until you come of age and no longer need a guardian in the eyes of the state. As of right now, I am the only person who is allowed to represent you in court, so we need to figure out what we're going to do, and also how we are going to react to the public, as this custody battle will be in the media."
OOC: There's three ways I figure this could end up -
If the de la Noirs win, she'll become Colette Dorielle Antoinette de la Noir, and she'll be sent back to Beauxbatons and Paris and never see any of the characters again.
If the Ivansons win, she'll become Dorielle Antonia Ivanson, and be yanked from France and Beauxbatons completely and reenrolled in Hogwarts as a Ravenclaw, but I imagine she'll still suffer, because Paris and muggle life is all she's ever known.
And then I got this crazy, radical idea that maybe, after seeing her plight, Evan could try to gain custody, because she reminds him of Christine or something, and then she'll be named Imogene, Isabella, or Isis Smith.
