still thinking abt how kit originally auditioned for the role of charlie ,, like imagine you’re alice and the literal embodiment of a character you made when you were like 16/17 walked in and was like hi i’m here to audition for that character’s bf 😭
Nick, holding a box: what would you say if I came home with 6 kittens?
Charlie: what’s in the box Nick
Nick:
Charlie: what’s in the box

Do you ever read a sad scene from a book and then Dancing Queen starts playing on your headphones
How much it took
Did any of you realize how much it took to get Ron to leave in Deathly Hallows ??
J.k.R. had to :
- chunk a part of Ron's arm so that he'd almost bleed to death, without letting him a chance to properly recover since his arm is still mangled three months later
- starve Ron for months
- mentally torture Ron with a Horcruxe (either every day for a few hours, or every 3 days for 24 hours)
- get him to listen to a conversation in which he hears that another Weasley kid has been injured and that Ginny has been caught by "Death Eater" Snape and sent in the Forbidden Forrest as a punishment (in which there's an army of human-eating Acromentulas)
- have Harry and Hermione so excited about their new discovery that they forgot everything else
- have Harry antagonize Ron (not a diss on Harry, he was influenced by the locket too) and refuse that Ron take off the locket during the fight
- get Harry to tell Ron to leave three times
But as Ron really didn't want to leave and wanted to come back straight away, she had to :
- get Ron to Apparate straight in a gang of Snatchers so that he couldn't come back right away
- get Ron to Apparate miles from the camp once he escapes, splinched and probably gravely injured, so that he can't find the camp in time again
And all that time, Ron was a 17-year-old. A high schooler. Damn. The sheer determination. The mental strength. The fortitude.
~ I'm fine ~
glad to see those spreading the truth
this is so funny.
tumblr tags are fucked up for me rn they type what im saying like 5 times like im trapped in a well and its echoing around how am i meant to make my little jokes now :(
wait someone tell the twitter migrators that we do not care about duo names PLS
Harry: Treat spiders the way you want to be treated
Ron: Killed without hesitation
Can you list the Ron moments that the movie missed our changed?... or maybe give a link to a post which already has the list.
Okay, this is going to be done from memory so bear with me.
Philosopher’s Stone
Ron offering to share his food with Harry from the moment they meet.
Ron teaching Harry how to play wizard’s chess (this is kind of in the film but not explicitly so I thought I’d include it.)
Staying over Christmas with Harry and trying to cheer him up after the mirror incidents (I think they did film a part of this but it was a deleted scene for some reason ??? why ???)
RON BEING THE CALM ONE DURING THE DEVIL’S SNARE SCENE NOT HERMIONE (’But there’s no wood!’ ‘Are you a witch or not?’)
Chamber of Secrets
Constantly defending Harry from Draco
The scene where Draco calls Hermione a mudblood and it was actually Ron who new what the term meant and explained it, not Hermione
Visiting Hermione in the hospital wing after she turns herself into a cat and bringing her all her homework that she missed
Ron going into a freaking forest full of spiders and tackling his biggest fear. Even though he was shaking the entire time and is so terrified he can’t even speak by the end of it and actually /throws up/ afterwards, he still went and did it because it needed to be done and he wasn’t about to let Harry go alone. (Okay so this was in the films but I really don’t think they actually captured the gravity of it, instead choosing to turn Ron into comic relief… Again.)
Being the one to go to the hospital wing so that Hermione will have someone with her so she’s not alone and to explain what happened when she wakes up
Prisoner of Azkaban
Actually being really concerned about Scabbers’ health and buying the rat tonic for him
Actual background to the Crooksanks v Scabbers business instead of just villainising Ron for the sake of making Hermione seem better
When he was literally woken up by Sirius holding a knife over his bed, who, as far as anyone knew then, was a mass murderer??? Why isn’t this talked about more ??
‘YOU ASKED A QUESTION AND SHE KNOWS THE ANSWER, WHY ASK IF YOU DON’T WANT TO BE TOLD?’
Noticing Hermione’s weird af schedule and being the only one to aCTUALLY CARE about where she was going and what she was doing
Literally fucking pushing Harry out of the way when they see Sirius in dog form (who they think is The Grim) and consequently getting a broken leg + dragged by his arm into the Whomping Willow
Awkwardly patting Hermione on the head after she apologises, instead of that weird hug thing they share in the films
Taking on Buckbeak’s appeal and dedicating so much time and effort into his case. Call this boy lazy or apathetic again I dare you.
Standing up on a BROKEN LEG to tell Sirius, who, again, was thought to be a MASS MURDERER, that ‘If you want to kill Harry you’ll have to kill us too!’ whilst Hermione stood frozen in the corner
Making peace with Crookshanks at the end of the book by holding Pigwidgeon up for him to check that he isn’t evil (I love Ron so much)
Goblet of Fire
‘We’ll pick you up on Sunday if you can come, and we’ll still pick you up on Sunday if you can’t’ (or something like that) when talking about the quidditch world cup
The background and reasoning behind the big fight with Harry (+the later argument they had where Harry threw the badge @ his head.)
The actual insecurity Ron suffered because of the dress robes, not just the comic relief side of it.
Helping Harry practice for the second and third tasks practically 24/7 (including letting Harry practice stunning on him!!! #dedication)
Getting Krum to sign his autograph + basically all of hIS HUGE CRUSH ON KRUM JFC
Just generally being there for Harry after Cedric even when Harry pushes him away
Order of the Phoenix
Again, just generally being there for Harry even when Harry is being an ass to him (+ the part where Ron desperately wants to tell him what’s going on but Hermione + all the adults insists that they can’t)
RON WEASLEY BECOMING A MOTHERFUCKING PREFECT
The year of quidditch which, although being an essential part of the book with the whole Umbridge arc, is not even MENTIONED in the film. Literally, it’s one of the only films that doesn’t feature quidditch yet it’s the book where I’d consider quidditch to be the most important.
Anyway, yes, quidditch. Ron getting a new broom and sneaking out to practice so he can try out for the team
HERMIONE KISSING HIM ON THE CHEEK FOR LUCK. I SCREAM.
Ron making it on the team and having very very very little confidence so he’s… quite terrible the first few matches.
The awful ‘Weasley is Our King’ song that Malfoy made and the Slytherins take to singing at. Every. Single. Match.
Ron gaining his confidence and destroying the other team at quidditch, during which, neither Harry or Hermione were actually there to witness it. And Ron is so happy and proud but when Harry and Hermione start talking about Grawp, instead of being petty and angry at them, he listens intently and tries to help
Always backing up Harry when Hermione is being slightly insufferable towards him and not really understanding of his needs. (e.g when she’s pressuring him to do better at occlumency and Ron tells her to back off)
The whole arc where Arthur gets injured and all the Weasleys are sat around the kitchen at Grimmauld place waiting for news + the parts in St Mungos (this was in the film a little but they really didn’t go into the effect it had on the Weasleys. Especially Ron and Ginny)
The miraculous plan they all come up with to get Harry into Umbridge’s office (which, admittedly, backfires, but hey. At least they tries) during which Ron plays a pivotal role, not just a struggling character in the background
Everything to do with the ministry tbh ??? From battling death eaters to the spell that makes him delirious to the brain almost suffocating him
Staying in the hospital wing with Hermione for the rest of the year and the scars all down his arms from where the brain attacked him
Half Blood Prince
When Hermione is talking about why girls find Harry attractive and Ron is all like ‘Look at me Hermione! I’m tall too! I have scars too!”
Backing up Harry when he answers Snape’s question about inferi compared to ghosts (”Well what Harry said was the most useful! If I’m going to face an inferi I’m going to be looking for if it’s transparent not asking ‘excuse me are you the imprint of a departed soul?’” or something similar. Get wrecked Snape.)
All of the quidditch moments in this book are golden.
That moment where Hermione super awkwardly asks Ron to Slughorn’s party and Harry is just in the background like,,, what an interesting plant
Ginny antagonising Ron about never having kissed anyone and the subsequent Lavender disaster that followed
Everything to do with Lavender tbh. Like, their whole relationship, not just the comic version in the movies
Ron’s getting poisoned actually being a really serious thing and all his family showing up at the hospital wing
Pretending to be asleep when Lavender comes to visit (Ron Weasley how dare you, your mother raised you better than this)
Okay, I really want to make a separate post about this but the whole Luna/Ron friendship in this one is gold
I feel like we as a fandom collectively forget this one but Ron and the rest of the DA fighting the death eaters with felix felicis whilst Harry is up the astronomy tower with Dumbledore
Holding Hermione at Dumbledore’s funeral ???? Honestly that’s all I need in life
RON ‘WE’RE WITH YOU WHATEVER HAPPENS’ WEASLEY VOWING TO ALWAYS BE AT HARRY’S SIDE INSTEAD OF SITTING IN THE BACKGROUND LIKE A STALE POTATO WHILST HARRY AND HERMIONE PLAN
Deathly Hallows
Giving Harry the how to charm witches book and actively trying to start a relationship with Hermione
Comforting Hermione when she’s upset and not being awkward about it !!!! Character development (I’m seeing a parallel to the head pat in PoA, anyone else?)
Standing up to the Minister of Magic at the age of seventeen like. Honestly Ron Weasley is such a badass I love him
Literally giving up a life of comfort and security to go and live as a fugitive in order to help Harry
Pushing Hermione the fuck out of the way when they’re found by Death Eaters near Charlesbury !!! Like, this boy is so brave and self-sacrificing I’m going to cry
Falling asleep holding hands with Hermione @ Grimmauld place
The severity of his splinching after the ministry debacle
The very real concern for his sister and Harry + Hermione’s apparent apathy that triggers the fight between him and Harry, not some motive entirely brought about by jealousy as the movies suggest
Okay, not Ron, but the movies really didn’t capture just how unable Harry and Hermione became without him. They didn’t talk to each other, they didn’t communicate in any way for like 95% of his absence. They were literally unable to function without him I’m so sad.
Saving Harry’s life and, importantly, the conversation they had afterwards where Harry reassured him that his insecurities were unfounded. And the hug. Where was my hug,Yates? Where was it?
Ron once again assuming his role as the heart of the trio; making Harry laugh, keeping the spirits up, getting them to function again.
Malfoy Manor. Just. Malfoy Manor. “NO YOU CAN HAVE ME, TAKE ME!” “HERMIONE! HERMIONE!” Literally being so distressed and worried for Hermione that he OFFERED UP HIS OWN LIFE FOR HERS AND LOST THE ABILITY TO THINK RATIONALLY. CAn we just.
Even despite the mental anguish he’s going through, Ron still manages to come up with a solution for where Dobby should take them
Again, despite everything that’s happening around him, Ron does a near perfect imitation of Wormtail’s voice
Disarming Bellatrix fucking Lestrange
Managing to successfully apparate for the first time ever in a very high pressure situation in order to get Hermione to safety
Taking his shoes and socks off to lay on Dobby’s grave
Going back to Hogwarts and the reunion with the rest of his family; including Percy, which I really missed from the books
Literally like everything that happened during the battle of Hogwarts but especially:
“We’ve forgotten someone!” “Who?” “The house elves!” Like, guys, this is such a significant moment for his character and I understand completely why Hermione chooses this moment to kiss him
How wrecked he was after Fred’s death. Like, in the books Ron is actually there to witness it. He sees his brother die. I am Not okay.
Hermione having to physically restrain him because he wants to go and get revenge for Fred
Ron punching Draco in his slimy little face “And that’s the second time we’ve saved your life tonight you two-faced bastard!”
Offering to be the one to go to the shrieking shack ?? ALone ?? He says something like ‘Harry you can’t go un case they see you, wait here with Hermione, and I’ll take the cloak and-” when they all know it could be a suicide mission. I’m.
BREAKING VOLDEMORT’S SILENCING SPELL
I’m sorry let me just re-iterate: RONALD WEASLEY BROKE A SILENCING SPELL MADE BY ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL WIZARDS TO EVER EXIST
Taking out Fenrir Greyback with Neville
Being the first to reach Harry after he defeated Voldemort, along with Hermione
Just the part where the trio go to Dumbledore’s office because I just. That’s such a nice and well rounded ending I’m going to cry
In the epilogue, practically everything about Ron is great but especially: “Don’t worry, it’s me, I’m famous”
In Conclusion
I love Ron Weasley so much
The films do not do him justice

(Feel free to reblog this with anything I’ve missed!)
Everyone always talks about Hermione striking Draco as if Ron didn’t take every opportunity to punch him for 7 years.
Bonus:
i know this blog has been nothing but ron appreciation lately but u know he needs it! So im here to provide! And y’all keep inspiring me with your comments
What i now need us all to remember that Ron either tried or succeeded in sacrificing himself to save Harry no less than four times at the end of PoA
1. The whole encounter with Sirius kicks off by Ron shoving Harry out of the way when the big scary black dog lunged at both of them, rather than getting out of the way himself. That’s how he gets his arm chomped and gets dragged off (so like not only was his leg broken during the whole encounter following, his arm was badly hurt too) (And can I mention how well written that entire sequence was in how its made to seem like the dog was after Harry and just took Ron because Ron interfered, but rereading you can see how Sirius was after Ron (and really Peter) the whole time)
2. When Harry and Hermione come to rescue him he tries to warn them its a trap and urges them to run before Sirius gets them! He was okay with them leaving him to die if it meant they got away!
3. The famous “stands up on a broken leg and tells Sirius if he wants to kill Harry he’ll have to go through them first”
4. But ALSO flinging himself across the room on a broken leg and physically fighting Sirius when he started choking Harry which obviously hurt him a LOT, afterwards its noted “his already pale face was now tinged with green as he clutched his broken leg”.
(also he insisted on being chained to Peter as one of his guards because he was so deeply disturbed his pet had been the guy who got his best friends parents killed he felt he had to- which is what led to him being badly hurt AGAIN when Peter escaped).
Ron was the real MVP that night and like zero percent of this was in the movie version because the movie people just like… hated him I guess.
Hands down the best news headline this year.
the houses as trans allies
hufflepuff: will correct others on trans people's pronouns even (especially) when the trans person in question is not present, happy to test run different names and pronouns with their trans friends, sends links to trans fanfics, waits in line with trans friends at the DMV to get their license updated, turns it into a little party, and then buys celebratory hot chocolate afterward.
ravenclaw: genuinely excited to learn more about their trans friends' experiences, asks questions, reads up on gender theory in their spare time, watches trans youtube just to learn, realizes when a question they asked early on was inappropriate, follows up to apologize and then does better, has the etymology of the singular "they" ready to recite at any moment just in case.
slytherin: purposefully puts themselves in between transphobes and their trans friends, will go to the bathroom with their trans friends and keep up a chatty conversation making sure that nobody gives them any shit, invites trans friends to family dinner which turns out to be a table full of queers with lasagne, visibly recoils at the mention of terfs.
gryffindor: will fight anyone who even looks at you wrong. someone deadnames you? theyll punch them in the face and YELL your proper name at you in affirmation. will pretend to be your mom on the phone with the school principle if they're giving you a hard time. eggs a transphobe's car. see that sword? thats their terf stabbin sword.
honestly minecraft is a good game and i will never forgive the internet for making people feel bad for liking a game about fucking mining and building houses
