Victoire had a tendency to run away, she didn't mean to stay for too long, she just needed to be away for a while. Sometimes everything just got a bit too much and she felt very overwhelmed. It first started when her parents began to fight a lot, when she was three. Although the period of conflict was soon over and peace came over the house once again, she still sometimes ran away without notice and didn't feel the need to tell anyone she was going out.

One day, at the age of seven she even boarded a train all by herself. It wasn't until the next day that they found the pale blonde girl, sleeping deeply on a bench outside a station. The police had been searching all night and her parents were frantic. Absolutely terrified.

As Victoire grew older and attended Hogwarts, her habit didn't cease and she often got punished for this. But no one seemed to understand her; they thought she just wanted to get out of class or skip revising after class. They misunderstood her need to be isolated from everyone else from time to time for arrogance and disrespect.
