trans ron au (1/?)

ThatBookwormNextdoor gave me the idea for this so thanks

In this AU, the adults fought Voldy rather than having a literal child do it but Harry is still at the Dursley's because old Dumbles is not good at the whole "keep kids safe and happy" thing.

This takes place the summer before the trio's 5th year.

Everyone speaks in modern day words minus the memes because I didn't exist when the original canon is set so idk what to do about language otherwise

This is hopefully not too angsty

TW: deadnaming, misgendering, coming out anxiety, weird questions, mentions of breads (if you've read the not chapter at the start of INHA then you know what I mean), swearing

Hi Clara,

I hope your summer isn't going too badly. Mine will definitely improve on Tuesday when I get away from the Dursleys. I can't wait to see you again.

Harry

Ron smiled at the letter and the messy scrawl that he knew came from writing on a mattress instead of a table. He was also desperate to see Harry again, but also dreading it because your family deadnaming and misgendering you is one thing but when it comes from your friends too, that just hurts.

It's not like he couldn't at least attempt coming out to Harry and Hermione, he was just scared that they'd react badly. Scratch that, he was terrified that they wouldn't accept him.

Seeing that the time was nearing half past 12 he decided to go downstairs for lunch. Entering the kitchen he was met by the twins.

"Hey C," one of the twins, probably George, said, "when do Harry and Hermi get here?"

Ron tried not to visibly cringe at the reference to his deadname while answering the question.
"Harry gets here on Tuesday, Hermione's Hermione so Tuesday is the absolute latest she'd be here, probably tomorrow for her."

Ron made his sandwich as fast as he could, trying to get away from the conversation.

"She's trying to escape our company, George," Fred exclaimed.

"I thought you were George," the other replied.

The two began to argue over who was Fred and who was George and Ron took this as an opportunity to escape. He headed through the house out to the garden where there was a bench which was perfect for sitting and eating sandwiches on in peace.

~time skip~
~it is now Tuesday~
~I don't know what day it was before~

"Clara, how long until Harry arrives?"
"I don't know, he didn't tell me, and I thought Dad was getting him."
"Does Harry know that?"
"Well that's normally how it goes, isn't it?"
Ron walked down one and a half of the flights of stairs in the tall, rickety house so that there would be less yelling.

"Well, there really isn't a normal for collecting Harry. The first time you and the twins stole the car and flew over. The year after Harry got kicked out and we were in Egypt so we all met in Diagon Alley. Last year you all went through the floo into his muggles' house. I suppose it would make sense though."
