Twenty Random Facts About Terry Boot - R

Notes: Originally written for The Harry Potter Random Facts Fest on Insane Journal.


Twenty Facts
****
1) Terry is proud of being in Ravenclaw and considers himself a pretty mean chess player, so the pang in his chest when Professor Dumbledore praises Weasley's playing in front of the whole school is professional jealousy, nothing more.

2) Michael had disarmed him at the Duelling Club. Fair and square. He hadn't been distracted by Weasley doing serious damage to Finnigan and then holding him like that. Kind of half tender, half disgusted.

3) He'd caught himself thinking Weasley was 'cute' retelling the story of Sirius Black appearing in his bed and trying to kill him. He'd banned himself from watching Weasley, for a fortnight, for sounding like such a girl.

4) He'd always got on well with Padma, and she never understood why he was so grumpy with her, Christmas fourth year. She'd been too quick to dance with the boys from Beauxbatons, that's all. Beautiful wands, indeed. Nothing to do with jealousy. What was there to be jealous of; Weasley had hardly looked at her.

5) He is impressed at the apparent open acknowledgment of Potter's feelings for his best mate, during the second task, but says nothing when not only does everyone else just take the piss, but Potter doesn't even notice.

6) He is seriously impressed by Hermione Granger being able to do a Protean Charm. Purely on an intellectual level. He doesn't even think about that meaning that Weasley is attracted to a brainy partner. Doesn't.

7) The DA is completely about being able to defend themselves. And to look at Weasley's arse.

8) Talking of which, Keeper is the hottest position there is.

9) He'd done NEWT level potions because he was smart; giving maybe a passing thought to getting on Granger's good side. To his shame, he hadn't thought Weasley would take NEWT level potions.

10) Amortentia smells of Quidditch leathers, chocolate and why-the-fuck-do-you-still-fancy-the-fucking-idiot.

11) Seventh year is horrible, with only the DA and the stupid sort-of-doing-it-for-Weasley to keep his spirits up.

12) He probably got a bit carried away when Weasley and the others stole a fucking dragon from Gringotts, but it was worth it.

13) He'd never forget the moment when Weasley climbed out of the tunnel and into the Room of Requirement. He'd forgotten how many colours there were in his hair.

14) He was pretty sure it didn't matter if you didn't know the word 'diadem'. Not when you'd just stolen a fucking dragon.

15 ) He hated the pain in Weasley's voice, when they thought Potter was dead.

16) He'd gone to work in the Department of Mysteries, and he'd had lunch in the canteen with Potter, a few times. Potter was sickeningly in love with his best mate's sister, which was kind of pathetic. Not that Terry was one to judge.

17) He hadn't even heard that Weasley had joined his mate in the Aurors, until he literally bumped into a blur of red hair and blue robes in the lift. He hadn't managed to say anything coherent, at all, especially when Weasley had bent down to pick up the armful of top secret scrolls he'd dropped, and grinned up at him.

18) He'd been as surprised as anyone when Granger and Weasley split up; he couldn't have been paying as close attention as he thought.

19) It had seemed as if the fates were out to get him; how could Weasley be in every lift, corridor and fireplace that he was? Why was it always him who brought confiscated items down to the Department of Mysteries, to be doubly confiscated.

20) He always teased Ron about what a pathetic flirt he was, and how was he supposed to know he was being courted, and not stalked? Ron always said that he could do blatant, as well, and stuck a finger up his arse.

Yay for Randomly Gay!Terry Boot actually getting to be with Ron. He is usually relegated to the sidelines...or the bad guy.

oh i love them ALL, but particularly this one:

6) He is seriously impressed by Hermione Granger being able to do a Protean Charm. Purely on an intellectual level. He doesn't even think about that meaning that Weasley is attracted to a brainy partner. Doesn't.

Have I ever mentioned just how much I love you?

I even uploaded my old Terry/Ron icon just to reply to this post.

I thought this was adorable. I loved that Terry wasn't quite as on top of things as he thought he was, and for being so smart but not being able to catch on to Ron's advances.

And for just being perfectly, perfectly Terry.

Because it is, of course, absolutely all about Ron *nods*

5) He is impressed at the apparent open acknowledgment of Potter's feelings for his best mate, during the second task, but says nothing when not only does everyone else just take the piss, but Potter doesn't even notice.
Ahahahaha! Oblivious!Harry :-) How we love him!
