Lots of people the Wizarding world wondered why the Weasleys and the Malfoys despised each other so much. Sure the lack of wealth and the blood purity thing aside, there really was no visibly concrete reason for the deep loathing that had run its course for generations. There were several families in the Wizarding the world that the Malfoys could have hated but the Weasleys seemed to be at the top of the list.
It began over a hundred years ago, when the Wizarding world was a bit more formal than it is today and Dumbledore hadn't even gone through potty training.
As a rule all major clan heads in Europe assembled to discuss ways to move forward but really all they did all day was gloat about whose child was going to be a prodigy and who owned what and discovered new ways to annoy each other, so it was no surprise when Cepheus Malfoy and Ailbert Weasley began taunting each other.
"I have lots of gold in my Gringotts vault "for even then the Malfoys were rich
"I have lots of grandchildren" the Weasleys had aways been a large clan
"My hair is better than yours" and let's not forget the vanity inherent in all Malfoys
"Maybe, but can you do this?" and he quirked his eyebrow
"Pfft, of course I can" he tried.
And tried.
And tried.
And tried.
And failed.
By the universal law of Machoness, Cepheus lost the challenge and as such Ailbert Weasley won.
Thus began a feud that would persist for years and span for many they met, Weasleys would cock their brows in silent mockery while the Malfoys could only glare in poisonous rage. For although the Malfoys tried none of them could quite manage to quirk just one eyebrow.
Sure soon enough the war would start and people would forget the real reason the whole rivalry started, it would all get buried in the arguments over wealth, power and blood purity,and Dumbledore would finally grasp the concept of potty training. Thank God for small mercies.
As Ronald Weasley faced Draco Malfoy in the Great Hall, on yet another morning, Ron continued the tradition set forth by his ancestor, and Draco followed his own ancestor's footsteps by just glaring holes into Ron's head.
"You really should stop provoking him so often" Hermoine said.
"I will when he starts a charity organization established for the betterment of houseelves"
The boy who lived a.k.a Harry Potter snorts in derision, choking on his sandwich in the process, leading the twins to attempt Heimlich Maneuver on him and causing one disgruntled Snape to deduct 10 points for unruly behavior.
People could speculate on the rivalry and come with their own theories, but all Weasleys and Malfoys knew the truth.
It was the Eyebrow.
