    Im very defensive of Ron. Ron gets a lot of flack unnecessarily. Hermione gets away with things way more.

    The light does have biases. Which is why I'm constructing my world this way

    But it isn't the death eaters were right, and the order was wrong.

    Ron will come around. Right now he's hurt because he thinks his friend is going dark

    Wait until Harry’s outed as a parselmouh 🤭

      That's alright...

      And I do agree, that often Hermione's flaws and actions are overlooked...Ron had skills and gifts, as well as knowledge about growing up in Magical Britain that could be quite helpful...sadly, Rowling wasn't interested in letting him shine...

      Yeah, but it doesn't help, if they're controlling the British Ministry of Magic and try to get rid of Dark Magic, rituals and traditions, without considering the consequences of such actions...

      Agreed...but it doesn't help if you close of the political options, while exploting loopholes in the laws for your personal benefits, and then still claim, that you're the better person...

      Good to know...maybe Ron can find something that allows him to shine...without losing himself...

      Oh, Merlin...that will be such a mess...

        Ron will have a big moment. He's going to have that moment fairly soon

        Also? Ron's wand isn't broken in this au. So he's gonna shine

          Good, I'm looking forward to it...

          Yeah, I did hate, how in canon - neither his parents, nor his head of house seems to care about this at all. And let's be honest...if you can pay a 10.000 Galleons fine for your *illegally enchanted flying car* - then you have enough money to pay for a new wand for your youngest son!

            Oh I hated that so much! And the school letting him carry it around despite being dangerous!

            All for the plot! It's so badly written

              Agreed - any professor who teaches a course, where you need the wand constantly, should have acted immediately - as this is a safety hazzard...that's why it should be a necessity to check the students' wands during the first weekend - to see if it's a good fit or not...and should that not be the case...ensure that the students will get a better wand for them...

              That's true...and for comedy relief...let's Ron vomit slugs, because he needs to use his damaged wand to get even with Malfoy...yikes...
              Sorry, but at that part of the story, even Lockhart would have known, that Ron's wand is a bad choice...
