Parent
Molly Weasley
The Weasley mother. A clock that reports danger, a howler that reports disappointment, and a household that runs on her nerve.
Molly holds a large family together on too little money and too much news. She knits, she shouts, and she decides Harry is hers to feed. The Burrow is her moral architecture: crooked, warm, and opposed to the pure-blood snobbery some of her relatives married.
She is not only domestic comedy. The books let her be afraid, controlling, and right about the war before the children want her to be. Love, in her hands, is logistics.
Later in the story
What she does in the last battle is a late image of that logistics turning into fury. The early portrait does not need it.
Family sketch
The Weasleys
Arthur, Molly, and their seven children. Bill, Charlie, and Percy are named here so the row is true. They do not all have full profiles yet.
