when james potter became head boy, the second thing he did was cry in the common room. loud, full on sobbing, sirius had to calm him down. from that point on, if he had any sort of strong emotion, he made sure to display it in the common room - fear, anger, guilt, sadness, happiness, joy.
he wanted to show the first years that being sorted into gryffindor didn't mean being brave all the time, there was no pressure on them to be too brave to cry or worry or yell or laugh. he wanted them to know that feelings were natural and good and free and brave.

Percy is a study addict, and measures his self worth by his grades. So he’s pretty busy, and being the Head Boy comes with it’s privileges; which he definitely abuses when it comes to you.
All the Weasley kids are always horny, but the most horny out of all of them are Fred, Bill and Percy.
First of all he has his own room being head boy, so you know what that means ;)
It means you guys cuddle A LOT together EVERY NIGHT.
Secondly, you guys go to the prefect's bathroom and shower together all the time as well.
Thirdly, at the beginning of the year Percy has to go to the Prefects carriage; but after an entire summer of not seeing you and only owling you, you can definitely be sure that some things are rushed during the meeting.
After the meetings finish, he waits in the carriage while you come to greet him, and it’s a very um 'heart warming and cute’ welcome every time. When someone asks him why he’s waiting in the carriage he just uses some excuse like “I’m just tying my shoelaces, It’s really hard and sometimes takes a lot of time.”
If by 5 minutes you don’t come to see him, he will come find you with your friends in your carriage and will motion for you to come see him; and you’ll give your friends the excuse of “I need to go change into my school uniform.” Even though when you both get together in the train’s bathroom it involves a lot more undressing than dressing, some first years were traumatized by the sounds that came out of the toilet.
Despite all the hornyness that is in his body, he’s actually really cute. Like George, he really likes dancing; he likes to dance with you in the library or in his dorm or in the rain. He won’t tell you that, but he really likes dancing with you.

“Come on, percy.” you yelled, as she stepped out into the rain; out in the Hogwarts’ courtyard. Percy was already on edge because it was past curfew and he was supposed to be doing his rounds.
He had suggested spending time with you, and by that he meant for you to walk with him while he does his rounds. You, however, noticed that it was raining and realised that you wanted to go into the rain.
“In the rain?! No!” Percy yelled as he looked at you as if you were a psychopath.
“Come on!” you yelled once again, as you walked to him from the rain; already soaking wet from it.
“No! I’ll get cold and sick and I'll fail.” Percy folded his arms, as he looked away from you. He -as always- studied really hard, and there were tests in 2 days.
“Just for a little bit.” you said as you stood in front of him and grabbed his chin. You made him look at you as you made a pouty face, trying to convince him.
“Fine, but if I get sick, I will hex you.” He agreed after letting out multiple huffing sounds and a lot of contemplation.
You grabbed his hands and led him outside in the rain, he cringed a bit from the cold rain as he started getting wet in the rain. You both stayed there for a while, as you tilted your head to the sky happily; feeling a sense of comfort from the calming atmosphere.
“See, this isn’t so bad.” You said as you looked again to Percy, who now had his arms around himself and completely over exaggerating.
“It’s freezing.” He said, trying to look much more pained by the rain than he actually is.
“Close your eyes.” You said to him in a soft voice.
“What?” He said looking at you distrustfully, he has been pranked way too many times to feel calm when someone tells him to close his eyes.
“Trust me. Close your eyes, look up. Focus on that. Focus on the rain drops on your face and me. Don’t think of anything else. Just the rain, you, me, now.” You said as you softly grabbed his hands. He had been stressed with the tests that were coming extremely soon, and you wanted to help him with that; but he couldn’t afford a lost minute of studying so you couldn’t. When he said that he missed you -which he looked extremely nervous while stating- and wanted to spend time with you, you were flattered and decided to take this to your advantage.
When he did, you could see his face tense for a little bit from the water pressure but he then relaxed. His shoulders were still tense so you walked around him, letting go of his hands and placed your hands on his shoulders.
When you started to massage his shoulders, he was much calmer and then you stood on your tiptoes and said “See it’s relaxing.”
You both stood there for a while until you decided to do something and then you held your hand out to him when he opened his eyes and you said “Dance with me.”
You got your second ‘you’re a psychopath’ look of the night as soon as you finished your sentence. He replied with his arms folded “No, why would we do that?”
“It’s fun.” You replied shortly while shrugging your shoulders.
“It’s reckless.”
“Exactly, fun.”
“There’s no music.” He said as he tried to convince you not to dance.
“We don’t need music.” At your statement he gave up on trying to convince you not to dance and he held his hand out to you. You gave him a bright smile as you took his hand and it gave him major butterflies.
After a while you both were dancing in the rain, while your arms were around his neck and your head on his chest; and he held his hands around your waist. The only sounds that you heard were the sounds of your shoes against the cold floor, your breathing and Percy’s heartbeat.
“I still don’t like this.” He said after a long enough time for you to be sure that he was enjoying this just as much as you are and maybe even more.
You let out a melodic hum, indicating that you ‘totally’ believed him and continued to dance with him.
“Are you better now?” You said when you started to actually feel cold from the rain, your head was away from his chest and tilted up to look at him.
He looked at you for a while seemingly lost in both thought and in your eyes; then he said in an almost lost voice “Yeah.”
A bright smile was placed on your face and then you started to say “I told you so-”
He cuts you off by placing his lips on yours and cupping your face with his hands, and that’s why Percy loves dancing with you especially in the rain; because you had your first kiss with him like that.
Was seen in the headmistress office to be recruited as the year’s Hufflepuff Head Boy. Judging by his consistency in managing his academic achievement and pristine reputation, this decision was not a surprise to anyone.
