Rose’s blood adoption

December 31, 1998

With Fred’s Rose and Bill’s Vicki born within days of one another, it really wasn’t much of a surprise that Septimus chose to hold their Wiccaning together on January 1^st.

Rosie’s partial blood adoption was to be held first, Ron was not invited of course, hence it was to be held the night before, right now in fact.

The Weasleys in good standing with Septimus and Cedrella; essentially everyone but Ron, Molly and Ginny were invited to supper at Wellsley Ridge, the main Weasley property.

After a communal meal, Septimus and Cedrella led them into the solarium.

Bill and Fleur along with their Vicki as well as Fred and Hermione with their Rose were close behind.

Since Charlie and Viktor had been asked by Bill and Fleur to serve as Vicki’s godparents, aside from Charlie being Bill’s closest sibling in age and Viktor being Fleur’s fellow Triwizard Champion, their attendance wasn’t a surprise.

Nor was Harry with his bondmates or George and Seamus, since Harry and George had been asked by Hermione and Fred to be Rose’s godparents.

Septimus welcomed them, “It is my pleasure and pride to claim a daughter for the House of Weasley. Hermione Fern Granger, Bonded of Fridericus Lancelot Weasley and bearer of Rosalind Hermia Granger-Weasley, do you with an open heart and clear mind chose Fridericus to be magically Rosalind’s sire by blood?”

Hermione nodded, “I, Hermione Fern Granger, Bonded of Fridericus Lancelot Weasley and bearer of Rosalind Hermia Granger-Weasley, do agree and request that Fred be magically Rose’s sire by blood.”

“Do you, Fridericus Lancelot Weasley and Bonded of Hermione Fern Granger, wish to be magically made the sire of Rosalind Hermia Granger-Weasley? Do you swear on your magic to raise Rosalind as your true daughter and to treat her equally as you would any naturally conceived children?” Cedrella asked sternly.

“I, Fridericus Lancelot Weasley and Bonded of Hermione Fern Granger, swear on my magic that I wish to be magically made the sire of Rosalind Hermia. I do so swear on my magic that Rosalind will always be my daughter, my recognized firstborn and will be treated equally to her brothers and any future siblings.” Fred said solemnly.

“As Head of the House of Weasley; I, Septimus Remus Weasleys grant my magical consent for the partial Blood Adoption of Rosalind Hermia Granger-Weasley. It is the wish of both her recognized parents that Fridericus Lancelot replace Ronald Bilius now and forevermore as Rosalind’s sire.”

Cedrella handed Septimus an athame.

Septimus took Hermione’s right hand, slicing her palm and she squeezed her blood into a waiting chalice in Cedrella’s hand.

Septimus and Fred repeated the actions, before the eldest Weasley used a weak blood-letting spell to add Rose’s blood to the chalice.

Septimus used the athame to stir the blood before setting it aside and taking out his wand. “Mother Magic hear our plea; a mother’s solemn wish be. Blood change is our desire, change this witch’s sire. Bless this babe and mother, so mote it be.” Septimus dipped his finger into the mingled blood within the chalice and then drew the rune for change on Rose’s forehead.

The baby witch glowed, her hair did retain its bushiness but it had darkened to more of an auburn and her eyes had shifted to a deeper crystal blue. Once the magic settled, leaving and taking its close with it; Rose began to wail.

Hermione offered her the best of comforts while humming softly.

Septimus thanked Mother Magic and the congratulations began.

Bill put Fred in a headlock and teased him about having a daughter only a few days older than his own. After all, Rose had been his in all ways but conception.

Given that Hermione was bonded to a Weasley, but like Fleur had kept her name, this adoption had merely ensured that registering her with both Gringotts and the Ministry as having Fred as her sire was the truth. Fred was after all the best choice; he had ambition, a heart bit enough to love Hermione and any child she had as well as been there with her taking care of since the day she found out.

Fleur and Hermione went to put Vicki and Rose to bed before joining the other adults for a ‘celebratory’ dessert.

Hermione felt more than a little guilty for not having been more welcoming to the former Beauxbatons’ Champion following Fleur’s engagement to Bill.

After all, Fleur had stood by Bill after he was attacked by Greyback, proving her affection for the former Head Boy was more than skin deep as the Weasley women suspected. She also allowed Mrs. Weasley to take over her wedding…

A choice Hermione could never have duplicated even to prove her worth to Fred’s mother…

Hermione silently vowed to befriend the French witch.

With Charlie bonding to Viktor later this month, George being courted by Seamus and Percy hopefully to bond to Oliver once the pretentious former Head Boy came to his senses as to what he wanted; the two of them were the only female bonded of a Weasley in this generation at least. After all, Fleur spoke a beautiful language that Hermione appreciated and their daughters were likely to be friends given the closeness of their birthdays.

Also, Harry was closer to Luna than Hermione herself and Ginny was very much estranged, Fleur was less dreamy than Luna and less selfish than Ginny. While a token female friend was a bit disingenuous to the former Triwizard Champion, Hermione could use the female companionship. While Giselle Bulstrode was a nice person and Millie, her bonded was surprisingly hiding a heart of gold under her brusqueness, they didn’t have the connection of being sister-in-law like Hermione did with Fleur.

Fleur smiled at her before entering the neighbouring apartment in the nursery wing.

Yes, Hermione did really want to be Fleur’s friend…

Rose and Vicki’s Wiccanning

January 1, 1999

Molly, Arthur’s estranged wife had refused the invitation to attend the wiccaning of her first grandchildren; Fred’s Rose and Bill’s Vicki, citing Ginny’s pregnancy.

Ginny was of course to miserable to attend being very pregnant.

Ron had deferred using his Auror duties as an excuse to miss Vicki’s wiccaning but in regards to Rose’s, had insulted both Fred and Hermione.

Inviting Molly, Ron and Ginny had been merely courtesy on Cedrella’s part seeing as how none of the Weasley family wanted them present.

At noon on January 1^st, Septimus and Cedrella called welcomed the elements as well as the Weasleys’ ancestors.

“Hermione, bonded of Fridericus and bearer of his firstborn what name have you chosen?” Septimus asked smugly

“Rosalind Hermia Granger-Weasley, to be called Rose.” Hermione beamed up at Fred.

“Fridericus, as this witch’s sire are you in agreement with this name?” Fred returned the look with a soft one of his own, Rose curled up against his chest in his left arm leaving his right hand free to entwine with Hermione’s left.

“I am.”

“Whom have you chosen as godparents and protectors of Rosalind?”

“Hermione’s best friend and brother of the heart; Herodotus James Potter and Georgius Cabal Weasley, my twin.”

“Herodotus Potter and Georgius Weasley, do you promise to do all in your power to guide and protect Rosalind?”

“I, Lord Herodotus James Potter-Black do solemn swear on my blood and my magic to serve as godparent and protect Rosalind. I do freely gift my magic to protect Rosalind.”

“I, Georgius Cabal Weasley do solemn swear on my blood and my magic to serve as godparent and protect Rosalind. I do freely gift my magic to protect Rosalind.”

“Fridericus and Hermione, you have heard their oaths, do you accept them?”

“We do.” Fred and Hermione said still holding hands.

Harry’s golden magic joined with George’s yellow-green; Fred’s deep red and Hermione’s orange-yellow weaving together before wrapping around Rose and sinking into her skin but not before they had a glimpse of the colour of Rose’s natural magic, which seemed to be a mixture of Fred and Hermione. Rose appeared to be orange-red…

Harry hugged Hermione and grinned at Fred before the four of them stepped out of the way.

Charlie’s pregnancy was a surprise but not quite as much as having two of the four Triwizard Champions joining blood and magic with the Weasley family. If Harry had been fated for a Weasley rather than his Slytherins, then they might have had all three but Hermione would not have wanted him with Ginny to ‘round out the collection’. There was something ‘right’ about how Bill and Fleur as well as Viktor and Charlie fit.

The age gap between Bill and Fleur was nearly five years, while Charlie and Viktor had nearly three years between them.

Charlie had become softer and less imposing in comparison to his demeanour upon first impression the summer of the World Cup. How much of himself had he kept hidden because his fear of being unaccepted?

“Fleur, bonded of William Arcturus and bearer of his firstborn, what name have you chosen?”

“Victoire Argante Delacour.” Fleur said softly in that throaty French accent of hers.

Like Fred, Bill had Vicki in one arm but his other arm was around Fleur’s waist.

“William, are you in agreement with this name?” Cedrella asked sharply.

Bill nodded, “I am.”-

“Whom have you chosen as godparents and protectors of Victoire?”

“My brother Charlus Evrain and Viktor Brankovitch Krum.” Bill said solemnly.

“Do you Charlus and Viktor swear on both your blood and magic serve as godparents and protectors of Victoire? Do you offer freely of your magic to protect her?” Septimus asked sternly.

Both Charlie and Viktor swore as well; they watched as Viktor and Bill’s deep red magic entwined with Fleur’s bright yellow and Charlie’s deep green, almost reminiscent of Harry’s eyes. Once their magic was together, it joined with Vicki’s own pink-tinted magic sinking into her skin and forming a barrier to protect her from most magical harm.

The elements and the ancestors were thanked, blessed and then dismissed with due reverence.

After which, Cedrella invited them to a celebratory lunch.

The two little witches had been properly named and wiccaned, thus they were numbered among the Weasleys even if they were to be registered as Rosalind Hermia Weasley and Victoire Argante Delacour, they were still sired by Weasley heirs after all.

Charlie’s unborn child would be numbered among the Krums of course but they would still interact with Rose and Vicki as cousins…

George’s children would be O’Shanesseys like Colm while Percy’s would be Woods, that is if those two courtships resulted in hoped for bondings that is…

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
