The Weasley family

I wrote Garreth's family into You need only ask and wanted to flesh out the characters a bit, especially my sweet Charlotte 🌼 there's also been some chat in the Garreth discord about Hector and Oscar! None of this is canon except that he has a younger sister and his dad's name starts with a G, so this is all just headcanon 😌

Ages at the time Garreth is at the end of seventh year (18).

Dad: Griffith, 45

Griffith is career-focused with high ambitions—he works at the Ministry in law enforcement with his eye on the top job in his department. He's a powerful wizard with great skill in duelling, though he doesn't often show this side of himself to his family.

He loves his family dearly, and they will always be his priority, but he can come across as cold when he doesn't openly show his emotions. He believes that hard work and sensible decisions will gain you success and doesn't entirely approve of his middle son's lofty entrepreneurial and creative goals.

Mum: Harriet, 42

Harriet is warm, friendly and incredibly family-oriented. A housewife for several years, she gave up her job as a magical horticulturist when she fell pregnant with Oscar.

Her favourite subject at school was predictably Herbology and she uses her cultivating skills to grow various plants in her large garden, preparing salves for cuts and scrapes and potions for all manner of domestic uses. She also loves to cook with her homegrown ingredients and passes on her cooking skills and family recipes to all of her children.

Brother: Oscar, 21

Academically gifted and a seemingly model student, Oscar was given the role of prefect in his sixth year at Hogwarts. In reality, he merely had a talent for being discreet with his rule breaking. He often used his status to keep his friends (and little brother) out of trouble and had a habit of using the prefects' bathroom for 'extracurricular activities'.

He works as an Obliviator at the Ministry, though his passion lies in Quidditch as a huge supporter of the Chudley Cannons. When he plays, he's a Keeper, though he didn't quite have the talent to carry it on as a career.

Brother: Hector, 13

Hector started Hogwarts whilst Garreth was in his fifth year. As soon as he overheard about the unsanctioned duelling club, Crossed Wands, he was hooked. Whilst he only had the courage to watch the other duellists at first, once in his second year at school he started to duel, occasionally roping his brother into partnering with him.

It comes as no surprise that his favourite class is Defence Against the Dark Arts, closely followed by Charms. When he's not practicing his wand work, he's researching new spells to master, warning himself a little bit of a reputation as a bookworm.

Sister: Charlotte, 8

Intensely curious with an insatiable thirst for knowledge. She loves asking questions, even when they might not be appropriate (as with any young child) or get her into trouble.

She's a little wild and hard to control, much to the dismay of her overworked parents. She inherited a love of the natural world from her mother and loves to explore and be outside, spending hours climbing, rambling and hiding out in her treehouse.

She can't wait to start Hogwarts to see what all the fuss is about.
