HUMONGOUS BIGHEAD.

bill and charlie were too old for him to rlly connect with, and the twins messed with him too much, so of course percy is the obvious one he’d go to

when ron was scared from sirius’s “attack” he told percy about it rather than his other brothers, probably because he was hb but also calm and serious about things and a source of comfort for him

when ron was coming back from the lake, fine but wet, percy was panicked and ran out to get him, fussing over him and making sure he was fine, becoming like a mother bear

though it wasn’t the best and he was wrong, he was worried about ron and wrote to him in fifth year. sure, he was a prat and told him against harry but he was just concerned for him yet misguided with his values and beliefs

idk it just makes sense, you know? though ron gets annoyed with him, they do love and care for each other so much. i can imagine that young perce helped take care of baby ron since ginny was born not long after and he’s a helpful kid, and that’s why they could be so close

This is correct! Fred and (to a lesser extent) George are extraordinarily brutal (experimenting on younger students, on muggles who can’t defend themselves re: Dudley, inventing love potions that are essentially date-rape drugs, etc.). Ron, thankfully, is a more sensitive, observant, and active soul.Percy is……*deep inhale* my actual son. Percy is so smart and hardworking and Just Trying to Succeed and be recognized in a deeply dysfunctional home full of people who are nothing like him.“its like the family inside joke that they all hate percy.“ lol this hit me too deep and it is 100% true! This is what I mean when I talked about fostering competition between siblings in one of my earlier asks. When you make one child the “villain” of the family for being “oversensitive” or a “bad sport” while simultaneously praising them for the behaviors that contribute to that (fastidiousness, boundaries, self-awareness), the mixed messages are going to cause problems!Percy was definitely blinded with anger when it came to discerning the truth from the Ministry’s party line, and that is short-sighted and bad and he was a fool for that. But Percy was, honestly, spot on when he called out his parents for being unambitious and envious. Fred and George get praised for leaving school and starting a “fun” business that makes them ~rich. But Percy.Percy, who has worked his way up in the Ministry through skill and intelligence and a willingness to be patient and accept abuse, frankly (Weatherby!), is dismissed/accused by Arthur of gaining his position purely because of his family name and ties to Harry Potter. (Remember Ron’s rightfully upset reaction to Hermione thinking Harry was the obvious lock for Prefect? Magnify that by like a million.) 

“Surely it wasn’t Percy’s own talent—it’s that the Ministry wants to spy on us and Harry,” Arthur and Molly say.It’s ironic, honestly. Percy, for once, has escaped the association with his family’s poverty through his YEARS of effort, but is now turning around and getting accused of a sort of Bizarro-poor-person-world version of Lucius Malfoy buying Draco onto the quidditch team.

It’s also very worth nothing that, uh, the Ministry literally never used Percy to spy except for that one Christmas visit to the Burrow that happened LONG after the accusation, and after Percy had accepted Voldemort’s return. There’s literally no indication at all that Percy ever informed on his family or sought opportunities to do so. Pre-Christmas visit, Percy had already chosen estrangement and HATED being at his parents’ house, but he did it because the new Minister—his BOSS and a vocally anti-Voldemort official—asked him to. 

And tbh, it must have stung pretty bad for Percy that this new Minister—not the one his parents warned him about at all!—was using him to get to Harry.
