Wonderweiss ||Ron Weasley||

Wonderweiss

Persephone was the last Wonderweiss attending Hogwarts.

Her elder sister Thanesis had graduated before Persephone was old enough to attend Hogwarts and Angelica had graduated last year, going back across the Black lake in the enchanted boat as everyone had done at the beginning of their education.

It was time for her to stand alone and carry the weight of her family name all by her lonesome...

Or at least that's what Angelica sobbed into her hair as she was sending Persephone off for her fifth year at Hogwarts.

Persephone stood awkwardly in Angelica's embrace for longer than she would have liked while her eldest sister, Thanesis, lectured her two closest friends Blaise Zambini and Dion Foxx to watch over her as it was her first time being alone.

"Whether I like it or not, you two gentlemen are Persephone's closest friends. And as such, you will look after her, do you understand me?", Thanesis asked not bothering to give them a chance to respond before continuing, "There will be no funny business of any kind, as I expect each of you to stay on top of your respective coursework-"

"Oh my sweet baby sister, going off into the dangerous unknown! I'm not going to be around to guide you anymore, Sephie," Angelica cried dramatically. It seemed like Angelica was more worried about it than she was, considering the fact that Persephone had never needed Angelica to guide her.

Looking around the platform and seeing that Angelica was garnering unwanted attention, Persephone tried to push her off, "I don't know what you're referring to-"

"Hogwarts isn't safe anymore, Sephie- Angelica will you shut up, you are causing a scene", Quietly cuts Thanesis' hard voice like cold steel.

Angelica swiftly releases her younger sister, drying her tears and standing up straight, "Yes, Thanesis".

Thanesis Wonderweiss is someone Angelica and Persephone could never outgrow or disobey, as she was the one who raised them with an iron fist when they're parents weren't around, which was often. Standing just a few inches taller than Persephone's small stature, Thanesis was a strict no nonsense woman in the body of a doll. Her soft features constantly contrasting her personality. Soft but threatening.

"Sephie, you need to be careful. Things are going to be changing and I need to make sure that you're safe," Thanesis squares her shoulders and turns her steely gaze to Blaise and Dion, "The three of you need to stick together and stay out of trouble. If I so much as feel even the slightest of premonitions that my little sister is in trouble- NO! If a single hair raises on my neck I will be there and you two will be there...there...there... and over there. Chunks of you scattered six feet beneath the soles of my feet..."

Across the platform watching the interactions was Ron Weasley with fear in his heart.

"Scary...", he murmured to himself.

"That's Thanesis!", George says coming up next to him, "Terrifying itnit?"

"A bloody nightmare-"

"But there's just something about that terror that just", Fred sighs in pleasure imagining Thanesis and whips and chains, "Mmm it just does something to ya, Ronikins"

"I'm going to go now", Ron mutters uncomfortably.

-

"You seem oddly calm tonight, Ron", Hermione notices as they finish their dinner.

Besides the occasional shy glances in someone's direction Ron seemed generally less flustered.

Without meaning to Ron gazes back to Persephone, accidentally catching her gaze. A twinge of excitement twists up his insides. It's almost like a secret game that he enjoys, now.

A gentle flush creeps to his cheeks as he waves off Hermione's questioning stare, "I guess I am"

In the forefront of his mind he conjures a vivid fantasy of soft brown curls and the feeling of pillowy lips pressed against his own chapped ones. The inviting scent of lavender and...sage... or maybe it was rosemary? And the chill of a winter's night.

Ron's heart flutters.

No, not a fantasy.

A memory.
