headcanons about the weasley family after fred's death?
YOU LIKE TEARS DON’T YOU???
Fred’s funeral was held on a rainy day and indoors. Ginny felt as though the universal was saying it was sad someone so happy was now gone
Ginny stole some of Fred’s Weasley sweaters when they were younger and after his funeral she found them hidden in her drawers and she wears one every night because she misses him so much
Percy still has nightmares about Fred dying and it’s not unusual for him to wake up crying screaming Fred’s name even years later
Ron has severe PTSD and although he liked being an Auror, his PTSD got so bad he had to quit. Although working with George was hard, he found it better than constantly being in danger
it took George 2 months before he finally went back to Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes. Charlie and Ginny went with him
Charlie stayed home after the Battle because even though he was affected by Fred’s death, he was able to deal with it better than the rest of his family
Mr. Weasley tried so hard to make his children smile or laugh after the funeral but it didn’t work
Ginny gave the eulogy at his funeral and everyone cried
Bill often comes downstairs every morning to Percy sleeping on his couch because he couldn’t stand being alone in his flat. Fleur always knows because she leaves a blanket and milk out for him every night just in case
George held Percy as he cried because his big brother needed him for once
although everyone thinks George would hate Percy he never did. the two only grew closer together
Percy wasn’t the only one who had nightmares; Hermione would occasionally have to wake Ron up in the middle night because he was reliving the moment he saw his brother die
Fleur’s Weasley sweaters were always done last because Mrs. Weasley always put off having to sew an “F” sweater
she still made one for Fred anyways
Angelina Johnson became a regular at the Burrow. it wasn’t unusual to see George without her because she was such a big comfort
I’m going to add Lee in this because no one talks about him enough but Lee is always over too helping out because people tend to forget he was Fred’s friend too
Ginny liked to bring out old photo albums and look at pictures from when she and her brothers were younger
stories about Fred became a Christmas tradition and they began to hurt less as time went on
though memories of Fred still hurt and every Weasley member still had an ache in their chest
Percy still feels unworthy of being welcomed back but he thinks of Fred’s outstretched hand and he’s happy
Percy, George, Ron, and Ginny like to visit the Muggle village close to the Burrow every once in a while and look around
Percy met Audrey in a bookshop there
sibling dinners at the Leaky Cauldron were a monthly thing after Ginny graduated Hogwarts. Percy and George always left drunk but everyone else helped them home
honestly losing Fred brought the Weasley siblings all so close together but they all miss him so much and wish they were with him every time they were together
