~*My thoughts on Bill W.*~
*Sighs Dreamily*
Perhaps it is my very penchant for rebels or maybe it's the thought
of someone in the Weasley family being so directly related to Dark
Arts fighting... but Bill Weasley instantly hooked my attention the
moment he entered the room... or more precisely when Harry entered
the room.
Bill is the eldest of 7 siblings. Obviously he's taken up the third
authoritive position right next to his father and mother. This is
pretty obvious by the way that even Percy, who is very opinionated,
doesn't even flinch when Bill tells him to shut up also by the fact
that he was, of all his brothers that went to fight, the most heavily
injured during the Quidditch Cup raid. (It wouldn't have surprised me
if he threw himself in front of Charlie *noticed that Charlie only
had a rip in his shirt*) Perhaps his being the eldest and thus,
needing to be the most responsible during the appearance (reign of 11
years) of the Dark Lord had made him quite prone to only caring about
the important things (not really caring about what people think of
his appearance) and making sure that everyone he loves is safe.
All these factors might have influenced his very career choice as
well. Being a curse breaker just might be the extreme tactical
advantage to future HP plots... Of course the weight of his scarred
youth might be even deeper depending on his age.
*To which I have 2 theories on: Charlie is either 25 or 21 in book 4
and Bill is either 22 or 26+. If you want me to go into how I figured
this out just let me know*
~*Takes on the subject*~
There is no doubt in my mind that both Bill and Charlie will step up
to the plate and complete the Weasley fighting force. That family in
it's own is a miniature army. Even Ron, who thinks nothing of
himself, does realize the fact that his natural tactic skills (Being
undefeated in Chess) can be very important.
Mr. Weasely and Percy at the ministry,
Bill and Charlie both with fighting forces,
Should I even MENTION the twins? It's pretty obvious to me that their
very innovative and creative talents would easily be turned into
weapons!! Considering that most of their "playful" inventions are
slightly dangerous in themselves,
Ron's tactile resourcefulness,
Mrs. Weasley being an important backbone to Mr. Weasley
And Ginny
Well... Ginny's personality still has some developing to
go.
With all that Bill, who leads the siblings in not only authorities
context but being the one that will help the "good" wizards against
the Dark Lord's biggest weapons: "The forbidden curses*, has the
opportunity to stand out very soon (probably sooner then Charlie
will) for those curses might be the first thing that they'll have to
address. And I'm sure for Bill, this almost feel like something that
he's been dealing with his whole life and will openly, and
courageously step up to the challenge!
**Love those rebels! ;)**
