by 'underappreciated' i don't exactly mean that they're like 'forgotten about' or things like that. Fred and George have a good shit ton of fanfics and Ron has a couple here and there too. (yeah the rest of them severely lack fanfics and that's fucked up but who am i to judge)
what i DO mean is that they're commonly presented either wrongly or not at all.
which is why i wanted to write like a mini rant for each Weasley child, including things like why they're great and why the movies (and fanfics) fucked up a lot.
oldest > youngest, let's go.

WILLIAM ARTHUR WEASLEY
I've read a lot of fanfiction where Bill is kind of 'in the shadow' and is this super shy adult who just gets manipulated by the oh-so-evil Fleur.
which is obviously fucking wrong.
since the two were madly in love. he say fleur as a woman who he loved, not an object, and she saw him as a man who she loved, not a poor redhead.
let me just:
" 'You thought I would not weesh to marry him? Or per'aps, you hoped?' said Fleur, her nostrils flaring. 'What do I care how he looks? I am good-looking enough for the both of us, I theenk! All these scars show zat my husband is brave!' "
this turned more into a fleur rant but, BILL WAS A BRAVE, BADASS MAN WHO FAUGHT AS MUCH AS HE COULD AND LEFT HIS FUCKING JOB IN EGYPT TO HELP THE ORDER IDK ABOUT YOU BUT I THINK THAT'S A GOOD ENOUGH REASON TO NOT HAVE HIM BE A HELPLESS LOVERBOY IN YOUR FANFICS !!
*ahem*
moving on.
