Ok listen.

Remember in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets when Harry says the wrong thing in the fireplace with the floo powder and just wooshes off to who-knows-where. And then the Weasleys all look around at each other like “welp that’s the boy who lived, briefly” and then fucks off to go shopping. Harry only barely escapes thugs by a chance encounter with Hagrid who’s out buying slug repellant. Mrs Weasley even says “Oh, Harry, there you are! We hoped you’d only gone one grate too far!”, ONE GRATE, not even that did they bother to check.

What if this isn’t the first time this has happened. What if the reason the Weasleys have so many kids is because they frequently just lose some and need back-ups. What if Ron once had a brother too. Donald Weasley.

And what if Donald Weasley once sneezed in the fireplace after eating some of these “fun” sweets that have hexes attached to them. Much like the ones Fred and George would also grow up to dabble in, before he popped up somewhere in America.

But not before the candy turned his skin orange and his hands small, and made his hair fall out.

So he bought a wig.

And, filled with resentment and bitterness, years later, he ran for president.
