Molly Weasley and Her Relationships With Her Family Members
These are headcanons I have about Molly Weasley and her relationship with each member of her family. This is entirely opinion and not at all canon. It also follows the headcanon of Neurodivergent Charlie and Autistic Percy.
I'm thinking I'm going to do this for each of the Weasleys.
~~
Molly and Arthur
Molly is high strung while Arthur is dreamy and calm. Every time Molly works herself into a tizzy, Arthur is there to calm her down.
They're very much like the sun (Arthur) and the planets (Molly) because Arthur is still, calm, very happy and sunny and Molly is constantly moving around him, attending to this and moving that and cleaning this but she always seems to find her way back to his side.
Molly and Bill
Molly has a complex relationship with Bill. He is her oldest and therefore he holds a special place in her heart but because he is the oldest she also had the highest expectations for him.
When he turned out to be very rebellious and adventurous, wanting to go out and see the world and grow his hair long and wear a leather jacket and ride a motorcycle she was not only scared for him but aggravated that he wasn't living up to her expectations... but of course, she can only stay angry at him for so long because he is her eldest after all.
Molly and Charlie
Molly hoped that Charlie would be everything Bill was turning out not to be but the weight of this expectation drives him away and more towards the things he finds comfort in: his interests. Like Dragons. He deep dives into his research, escaping in textbooks and fantasy novels that tell tales of fantastical creatures that can fly away to any corner of the world and then he learns about the sanctuary in Romania and he just knows he has to go, to live with the dragons and to live like a dragon.
Molly, who can feel her hopes for Charlie slipping through her fingers, desperately tries to encourage him to do better in school and pay more attention to his studies, helping him to achieve his role as Head Boy.
But she also tries something she was unwilling to do with Bill: compromise. She buys him books on dragons and listens to his facts and really truly does try to remember them, but she already has so much on her mind so eventually, she ends up just nodding along to his rambles, with the occasional 'yes dear, how exciting'.
Molly and Percy
From the moment Percy is old enough to talk Molly realizes that she has yet another son she doesn't understand.
He's more like her vision of what a son should be, hard-working and serious, always helping without being asked and not running off to play dragon rider or coming home with a new surprise piercing or tattoo.
But there's something about him... he's almost too serious, too rigid and black and white in his thinking and easily overwhelmed by Molly's frazzled tendencies.
But now she has the twins to worry about as well and doesn't have enough time in the day to worry about what Percy is doing and so he falls back into the background and this time Molly doesn't care or even notice when her expectations of him fall flat until it's too late and he's grown bitter with his family for never attempting to understand him.
Molly and Fred
Molly says to herself that she would never admit this (though it's obvious to George and even more obvious to Fred) but she is more partial to George when choosing between the twins. She believes Fred goes too far with his pranks and is more assertive with his personality than George.
She has a very short temper when it comes to Fred, always aggravated by one of his pranks or the other or at least on edge because she's expecting one to come. This short temper causes her to lash out at him more often than his other siblings and causes tension between the two of them. This brings on arguments that cause tension in their relationship.
Molly and George
While the twins have quite similar personalities George is more of a mama's boy and Molly tends to use that to her advantage to gently guilt him into doing things she wants and nudge him in the direction she wants. But Fred's connection with George is stronger than Molly's and ultimately she realizes it's no use and gives up on the twins.
Molly and Ron
Ron is sort of Molly's last chance at the perfect son but by now she has given up on the idea of a perfect son and has moved on to wanting a daughter and when Ron is born a boy and not a girl Molly is disappointed and doesn't even try to change him. He ends up fading into the shadows though greatly loves his mother, wanting to gain her approval.
When he becomes Head Boy he gets a taste of her pride and her love which reinstills his love for her and is one of his main motivations for wanting to do well in school.
Molly and Ginny
Molly expects Ginny to want to always be around her, as the only other girl in the family, and when Ginny instead wants to play with her brothers and wrestle and play quidditch and pretend to ride on dragons, she tries to push for Ginny to be more feminine.
The more Molly pushes the more defiant Ginny becomes, wanting to fit in with her brothers and do the things they do. Molly still holds Ginny to high, stereotypically feminine, expectations.
When you read a book series, and nobody else seems to have ever read it, but youāre obsessed, so you try to talk to people about it, but then they donāt understand the magic system, so then you finally force your sister to read it for you. But then, sheās always so busy, so you let her borrow the books from you but then she never finishes them and you really want the book back, but you also want her to finish the series so you donāt ask for them back.
