[rs=2] | FEAR OF A NAME, ONLY INCREASES FEAR OF THE THING ITSELF |
“With the whole red haired lot we call the Weasley family, it's hard to separate us from each other, we're practically the same with identical red hair, and similar personalities when considering few aspects. I am a, most definitely and proud to be so, Weasley. Still, mum and dad wanted us, Hugo and I, to be identified as more than a weasel and what better way to portray this thought but through the names they gave us? Hello, the name's Rose Bathilda. And if you have good observation skills and an intact memory, it's Rose Bathilda Weasley, as mentioned earlier. To distinguish us as ones apart from the crowd but not necessarily in a negative way, my parents searched for names that are memorable, the kinds that roll of your tongue and once done so, keep rolling off of it and you can't help repeating said kind of name because it's just so nice."
"Dad gave me my first name. Thank god, I don't know what kind of atrocious middle name I would have been given if he'd chosen it and I refuse to think about it either. Nevertheless, dad gifted me with the name Rose. Quite a common name but it's very beautiful, not too girly and all if you ask me. I suspect my noticeable ginger hair that I'd inherited since birth contributed slightly to this name too. I quite like it, it fits me perfectly fine although it gives James and my other wonderful family members the great chance to nickname me with all sorts of inadequate things. Rosie Posie, Little Red Rosie, I can go on all day..."
"The middle of my name was, of course, chosen by mum. She named me after Bathilda Bagshot, of whom she admired to be a brilliant and aspiring witch who wrote her top favorite read, A History of Magic even if the woman did seem to grow quite batty over the years. I believe in her pick for my name and proud of it, the book's something special and I always have a spare copy somewhere on me or in my dorm."
"While my name might rise great chances at mockery, my flaming ginger hair, being named after the batty deceased witch, well, you'd think it's hardly fair for me to be named like this. Better yet, I'm just another weasel. Still I'm proud of it. My parents had a reason to give me such a name and I do like it. It's abnormal and I've long since figured I was too much of abnormal to fit into the crowd anyway. And it isn't simpering that I'd try to change my name. Maybe out of pure luck too, but I also have my dad's initials, RB. Or, maybe, mum planned it."

the species
"One thing you must be acutely aware of when concerning myself, is that I do not give a shit about blood purity. While this may not be true for others, I am strongly against raising bitter judgement against one due to their lineage. It's just damn unfair. Not only does this concern blood purity but also anyone's family's alliances or past alliances. Although dangerous as it might be and while I am perfectly wary of those who were, in the past, affiliated with the dark lord, I will not discriminate and I will stand up for those who are discriminated against."
"As a child of two from the famous trio that conquered Voldemort, the one previously holding an evil reign on the Wizarding World, I may be subjected to the remorse and bitter feelings belonging to the dark lord's followers and their children. As true as that statement is, I would like to get my point across. I. Do. Not. Judge. It makes me angry to think of such a thought."
BE YOURSELF BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE IS TAKEN[/font][/blockquote]
the personality
"Rose is stuck up, to say in short. She's always got to be there to crash the party, always the fun killer. It's not like she isn't completely a stick in the mud. She's had her fun, gone to parties, plays Quidditch, but everything has to be within the rules. It's safer. More boring, actually!" - Anonymous Hogwarts Student
"I think, Rose tried her very best to please everyone. It's sad, because she tries so hard! She's fun when need be so she can please those who don't care about the rules and I think that's one of the only times she lets loose. Still, she keeps within the limits of the rules to appease her parents and the higher authorities. She tries to change people for the better, I think, so while she doesn't believe she can make her own parents proud of her, she wants to make others' proud of them. She's so kind hearted but can be severe and sarcastic plus she has such low self esteem!" - Anonymous Hogwarts Student
"Although no one really said it, maybe to spare my feelings, but I've always felt like, since birth, I was expected to turn out exactly like mum or dad. Either a clone of the super smart heroine or the super funny hero. Either way, I was expected to be something special. Check the tabloids and the Daily Prophet, I'm sure it's got something like that in there. It's a lot to put on a young girl, isn't it?"
"Truth is, I'm like both of them. Sure, I'm smart, one of the smartest witches at Hogwarts considering most of the students don't even take the time to study but mum could inhale an entire library in a day and then spit all of the information right back to you whenever you need it. Even a year later! Although I do try my best and keep thriving, I'm not that smart (but don't tell Scorpius that. I'm kind of locked in a competition of wits with him)."
"Mum was smart and dad was a dry, wisecracking guy who held a temper and was insecure. All of those traits, regretfully the bad ones, do describe me. I have a temper, I guess. Some say I don't take shit and have a habit to be very scary. I'm actually proud of that! I've got some authority, finally. I'm also insecure. While knowing this, I must admit, I am concerned about my reputation."

the history
The day I was sorted! Merlin, it was fantastic! Of course, I was sorted into Gryffindor although Ravenclaw would have been okay...
The young ginger stood at the back of the line. She was the last Weasley to be sorted and she twisted her hands nervously, her front teeth (which may or may not have been straightened with the slight help of magic) skimming over her bottom lip in anxiety. She shifted from foot to foot as the young eleven year old Rose Weasley wondered what house she'd be placed in. Certainly not Hufflepuff. Prior to most of the other students' opinions, she had nothing against the badgers. She just didn't have the same patience as them.
Slytherin...Well, she wasn't quite sneaky nor as indifferent as they usually were. She couldn't imagine being placed in that house. Think of what her father would think of her! Ravenclaw wasn't very bad but she wasn't much wise. As mature as she was, she knew she also still had to grow more to gain wisdom. Maybe Gryffindor...
"Rose Weasley!" Rose looked up as soon as her name was called, her little child frame shaking slightly but she walked up to the stool and placed her bottom on it, the wood as cold as her hands were turning as they turned white. The woman who was calling out the names smiled kindly at her as if she probably went through the same thing for hours. Then Rose realized she did and she nervously smiled back.
"Ah, a Weasley. Awful lot of you, isn't there? Hmm, well you're quite like your mother but not too much. You're clever, very clever, almost cunning. You wouldn't do too bad in Slytherin, you know? Hmm, no, you've got morals. Well then...GRYFFINDOR!"
THE QUESTIONABLE QUESTIONNAIRE THAT QUESTIONS[/font][/blockquote]
the faq
>> 1. Who do you think you are?
Rose Weasley, of course. Unless you were referring to my apparent "bossiness", "goody-two-shoesness", and "lack of fun" that drives me to punish you and all other sorts of other Hogwarts students for very good reasons, then I can honestly say, I am the only intelligent person at Hogwarts. You and the other party-goers can get drunk and stoned but I'll be here, well accomplished.
2. Merlin, do you always have to be in control? <<
Merlin, do you always have to phrase these questions in the most nastiest of ways? Yes, as a matter of fact, I do. I'm not being snobby, I'm doing the world a favor, we can't have Hogwarts run by a bunch of hormonal and drunk teens. I'd usually be kind to the likes of you but my patience is now frayed considering how rude you are.
>> 3. Can I copy your copy your homework?
Who are you, James Potter? No! How are you to test your own intelligence if you can't write up your own answers? I'd hate to see you in the future if you can't even finish your own Transfiguration homework. But I can most certainly tudor you.
4. You're related to Harry Potter! <<
...Yes.
>> 5. What do you want to be when you're older?
A professor. Or minister of magic!
6. You're Head Girl? <<
