Edited 6/4/23: Minor Grammar/Spelling.


Some resolution to who exactly is actually a Weasley? Yup!

Mustlvh2o (AO3) will Ron be a Goyle?

A little Charlie re-intro for tiny_reader (AO3) who I know has been waiting for him!


Thursday, June 4, 1998

"They've all agreed!" Ginny shouted as she ran into the library. Hermione was sitting, reading a book about Advanced Transfiguration. When she looked up, Ginny was panting and looking a bit manic. "They've agreed to do a version of the paternity test. George told me that Ron was being quite stubborn about it, but finally agreed when they explained that it could put things to rest."

Hermione nodded thoughtfully. "Are you nervous?"

"No, well, maybe a bit, but honestly it's meant to happen and I think everyone will feel better knowing. Will you… Will you come with me?" she asked a bit sheepishly.

"Are you sure they'll be alright with th-" Hermione started.

"I don't bloody care about Ronald Weasley and the rest of my brothers are quite looking forward to seeing you. Please Hermione!"

"Alright," she said with a chuckle. "I'm in."

Ginny pulled her up from the chaise lounge she was in and dragged her to the Floo. Within moments Hermione found herself surrounded by all the Weasley men. She was passed from each of them being hugged tightly.

Finally Hermione found herself squeezed between George and Ginny on a loveseat. "We're glad to have you, Hermione," Arthur smiled at her softly. "We need a bit of an impartial observer I'm afraid."

"Of course, Arthur, I'm happy to be here," she said fondly. Ron still hadn't looked at her and was sitting as far away as he could, avoiding eye contact. Hermione got a bit of a chuckle from that. He was always so immature.

"Alright," Arthur said, looking around at his sons, "shall we start oldest to youngest?"

Bill nodded, stoically, holding Fleur's hand tightly. Bill pricked his finger and allowed a drop of blood to fall on the parchment in front of him. The group watched as a tree began to spread on the paper before him.

William Arthur Weasley m. Fleur Isabelle Weasley (née Delacour). Parents: Arthur Charles Weasley and Molly Lucretia Weasley (née Prewett).

Bill let out a small sigh and sank into the couch a bit further. Charlie cleared his throat and pricked his own finger onto the parchment in front of him.

Charles Hugo Weasley m. none. Parents: Arthur Charles Weasley and Molly Lucretia Weasley (née Prewett).

Charlie grinned at his dad and winked. Hermione knew that of all the Weasley children, Charlie was the most similar to Arthur in personality. He was quiet and thoughtful, but obsessed over things in the same way as Arthur did. She was relieved that none of the heirship duties would have to be adjusted.

Percy looked quite pale as he shakily pricked his own finger.

Percival Ignatius Weasley m. none. Parents: Bartimeus Crouch Sr. and Molly Lucretia Weasley (née Prewett).

Percy let out a bit of a sob, his girlfriend, Audrey wrapped her arms around him. "Y-you'll always be my son, Perce," Arthur choked out.

Percy nodded and smiled wetly at his father. "It's a bit ironic, isn't it?" he said. "The man couldn't even get my name right."

"Looks like we'll have to look into the Crouch vaults," George teased, causing Percy to snort in a very un-Percy-like manner.

"The last of my line, eh?" he said bitterly.

George cleared his throat dramatically and pricked his finger dramatically.

George Fabian Weasley m. none. (Identical Twin, Frederick Gideon Weasley dec.). Parents: Arthur Charles Weasley and Molly Lucretia Weasley (née Prewett).

Hermione saw him jolt a bit when Fred's name was revealed. Arthur just nodded, like he already knew that George was his own. All eyes turned to Ron who was looking a bit angry at the whole event.

"I don't see why I bloody have to do this. It's not like I'm Percy. I'm a Weasley through and through," he scoffed.

"That's uncalled for, Ronald," Arthur said, disappointed. "Percy is my son just like Ginny is my daughter. Nothing will change that."

Ron rolled his eyes, but pricked his finger.

Ronald Billius Weasley m. none. Parents: Vasily Anton Crabbe and Molly Lucretia Weasley (née Prewett).

Ron stood angrily and punched the wall. "It's LYING!" he shouted.

"Petrificus Totalus," Hermione said calmly. Ron stiffened and fell back into his chair. "This spell has a .0002% error, Ronald. I suppose it is possible, but not at all likely."

Arthur looked at his youngest son. "I know it's not what we expected, Ron, but I'll always consider you mine. If you promise to talk in a mature manner we can retest it if you like and we'll un-petrify you."

Hermione cancelled her spell, and Ron sent her a disgusted look. He looked at the new parchment and pricked his finger again. They all watched as the result appeared again.

Ronald Billius Weasley m. none. Parents: Vasily Anton Crabbe and Molly Lucretia Weasley (née Prewett).

"How could you not know?" Ron said angrily.

"I trusted my wife," Arthur said tiredly. "None of this changes how I feel about any of you. You're still my-"

"That's bullshit," Ron cut him off. "You've always treated me differently than the rest of them!" Percy and Ginny scoffed. "It's true. I'm just the fucking spare! I'm better off going where someone will be proud of me!" Without further ado, he apparated away.

The rest of the group just sat in stunned silence. "You don't think he'd-?" Arthur started.

"I'm guessing he went to see Mum," Ginny said with a sigh. "I'll go check." She stood and apparated away.

Moments later she returned. "He's with Mum. She's comforting him and talking about how wonderful Vasily is," she scoffed. "We need to make sure they don't spill Order secrets," Ginny added. "They're wildcards."

Percy cleared his throat. "I'd like to join Ginevra and Hermione in the spying. I think I'd like to take on the mantle as a double agent, if they'll have me. Would Draco speak to me about it?" he asked Hermione.

"I'm sure he would, but I wouldn't recommend it, Percy," she said, "It's… awful."

"If we want things to change, we need to do what we can," he responded, adamantly.

Arthur looked a bit misty. "I'll talk with Remus and Kingsley about Molly and Ron and about your proposal, Percy." He stood, looking a bit lost.

"Dad!" Ginny said, running to him, crying. "This has been a full day. I'll go with you. None of us should be alone right now."
