honestly though hermione and ron would be the best parents ever

• ron reading babbitty rabbitty and the tale of the three brothers and basically all of beedle the bard with just the right voices and funny inflections every bedtime
  
• hermione ensuring that her children know the classic muggle fairy tales–with her own twist ofc–”now rosie, what does sleeping beauty teach us about the history of females and their status within literature?” 
• ron tucking the kids in with a warm glass of milk and cookies; “never underestimate the value of good food, hugo”
• hermione flipping pancakes in the morning in the shape of spell movements (”swish and flick, darlings! you too, ronald”)
• ron taking rose out for her first broomstick ride while hugo clutches hermione’s hand fearfully
• the kids growing up to saturday morning rituals of quidditch games with the Weasley cousins and sunday afternoon pot roasts with Grandma Weasley (”grandma, i’m full!” “nonsense!”)
• holidays at the grangers’ in australia, ron making sure that they go hiking on every single nature preserve (”there’s no way that thing’s not magicked up, hermione, look at its stomach” “ronald, how many times do i have to tell you about the bloody kangaroo???”)
• hermione coming home from a long day at work, ready to topple over, only to find ron, the kids, and a scrumptious steak dinner ready to go
• ron taking first rose and then hugo with him to the joke shop and buying ice cream as a special treat and strolling down diagon alley, smiling and waving at everyone who knows the local shop proprietor
• hermione taking them to gringotts, showing them the ins and outs of money, teaching them to value and save
• both parents cementing their children’s open mindedness with exposure to both wizarding and muggle worlds, trying their best to make sure they understand the beauty and importance in both
• the first time a boy pushes rosie on the playground and runs away, ron leaps up, furious, to be stopped by a hermione who excitedly shushes him (”stop it, ron! oh, i can’t believe rosie’s already got a boy!” “boy my a—” “shhhhh! where’s my camera??”)
• wild car rides with ron at the helm, hermione clutching on to the seat rest with a firm look of disapproval and slight terror
  
• ron and hermione trying their best to protect their children from the fame and paparazzi every day, refusing to allow them to be photographed; “my children make their own future, thank you very much” (hermione still keeps tabs on rita skeeter ofc)
• yet never hiding their scars, “mudblood” and tentacle marks alike, answering the children’s questions readily and without reserve, because they have a right to know, to understand their history as a family and as a society
• the house always bulging with books, food, and laughter
  
• ron and hermione telling rose and hugo each and every day how much they love them, how precious and wonderful and smart and amazing they are
• hugs always, everywhere and anywhere
• yummy snacks and meals readily supplied by a doting grandmother and father
• rose and hugo growing up, nurtured by love, shaped by wisdom, taught with compassion and fairness and trust
• ron and hermione doing their best to raise their children to smile and not scowl, to be accepting and reasonable and kind always, to live their joyful childhood that was cut so short, praying and hoping and trying to make sure that, god forbid, nothing like their terrors will ever happen again
• making mistakes and stumbling, but doing it all together with giggles and apologies and kisses
• just hermione and ron as mum and dad, who fought for peace and live in it, thankful every day for the world they were able to create for their children.

okay but can we just appreciate the fact that when Harry took the Felix Felicis, he caused both Ron and Lavender + Ginny and Dean to break up?? Like, he slipped off towards Hagrid’s with the cloak on because the Felix told him to, and since Lavender couldn’t see Harry with Ron and Hermione in the dorm, she thought Ron and Hermione were alone together. Ron and Lavender were DONE. And when Harry was slipping off through the portrait hole on his way out, the cloak brushed against Ginny’s leg, and she got into a fight with Dean because she thought he was trying to help her through, which pissed her off. Dean and Ginny? DONE. So this tells us that : Harry, much like myself, is trash for Romione and Hinny.

PS:

“Ten weeks,” Hermione snapped. “That’s not ages, that’s like a second to Nicolas Flamel.”

“But we’re not six hundred years old,” Ron reminded her. “Anyway, what are you studying for, you already know it all.”

OP: 

“You’re so naive,” said Ron, “you think just because you’re all honourable and trustworthy -”

HBP:

“Hermione, will you shut up, you’re not the only one who’s nervous!” barked Ron. “And when you’ve got your eleven ‘Outstanding’ OWLs…”

DH:

“I notice I’m always the one who ends up sorting out the food, because I’m a girl, I suppose!“

“No, it’s because you’re supposed to be the best at magic!” shot back Ron.
