Casual, very casual day
He walked inside the bank, completely mesmerized by the scenery. The walls were lined with marble and the desks were made of some well crafted oak. With just a bit of redecorating, it could’ve been made into a really nice home for people with too much money on their hands.
When he walked inside, he had not expected to find a familiar boy with neat black hair and piercing emerald eyes, staring at a piece of paper. The boy’s gaze swept upon the paper that was in front of him while a goblin was also intently staring at it. Next to him, was a man likely in his early thirties. Dark brown hair and brown eyes, they seemed normal but Ron knew a lot better.
“What are they doing here?” Ron asked himself as he quickly decided that he would take his leave so as to not bring Hadrian’s attention onto himself. He clutched his bag filled with the second and third volume and was about to shuffle away when he then locked eyes with a piercing green stare.
“Eldritch horror type shi, I do not get paid enough for this.” Ron paled. The gaze on him quickly brightened as Hadrian had finally realized who was in front of him.
“Ahhh, you must be Ronald, Hadrian had told me a lot about you, your-” The older man then got cut off when Hadrian gave him a painful jab.
“Ron! What are you doing here?” Hadrian said excitedly, leaving no traces of what he just did. Ron gulped slightly and said. “Hello, Hadrian.” He said, his eyes faltered slightly before walking up to Hadrian.
“What are you looking at?” Ron asked, looking over Hadrian’s shoulder. He paled when he saw what was written on the paper.
100 galleons sent to Molly Weasley from Albus Dumbldore. Vault: Potter main vault
100 galleons sent to Duncan Taylor from Albus Dumbledore. Vault: Potter main vault.
50 galleons sent to Ginerva Weasley from Albus Dumbledore. Vault: Potter Main vault
1000 galleons sent to Albus Dumbledore, from Albus Dumbledore. Vault: Potter main vault
“Ooooh that’s not good.” Ron thought, he almost paused but Hadrian hadn’t stopped him so he was going to continue reading. Except he wasn’t exactly sure if this was a test made by the older man who Ron was sure was Voldemort…
Eh, he didn’t care, if Voldemore wanted to test him, he wasn’t going to comply. He was rebellious that way… Wait a minute, Hadrian was still a Potter? How does that work?
Ron froze, Albus Dumbledore had control of the Potter vaults, which is a classic. Which must mean Hadrian might have some sort of relation to the Potters, if the fact that this paper is addressed to Hadrian said anything. Ron didn’t really want to continue overexerting his brain but he’s always been obsessed with lore.
Hadrian had seemed to catch on at this point and then spoke up. “Ron, what are you thinking about?” He said softly, his hand on Ron’s hair.
Ron looked at him and then sighed. “There’s no point thinking about this,” Ron thought as he softly took Hadrian’s hand off his hair, much to Hadrian’s disappointment.
“Nothing.” Ron responded simply, then he turned his attention to the man standing beside Hadrian, who hadn’t spoken a word in a good 5 minutes. The man seemed to get the hint and introduced himself.
“Greetings, I am Slytherin, Marvolo Slytherin.” The man nodded his head and then Ron Weasley introduced himself in the same respectful manner. Ron thought he was a bit sloppy, but Marvolo looked pleased. So that was good at the very least.
“So, you’re my son’s tailor?” Marvolo said, looking at his clothes. Ron nodded, Hadrian gave his father a glare. “The suit you designed was definitely remarkable, worthy enough to be complimented by Hadrian’s stylist. I sure hope you design more in the future.” Marvolo said, crossing his arms. Ron gave a sigh of relief.
“Thank you sir, I am extremely grateful.” Ron said, he was saying this to be completely and utterly respectful. He doesn’t have a death wish after all, okay maybe he used too. But his life right now is enjoyable and he doesn’t want to die. Marvolo studied him a bit more before saying to Hadrian.
“You have made an honourable friend. Come now, we have finished our work here, we shall be taking a trip to the ministry.” Marvolo said, walking outside the bank like it was nobody’s business.
Hadrian followed his father shortly after, and after the two left. Ron could finally sigh in complete and utter relief. “Oh god, what did I do to deserve this?” If Ron wasn’t in public, he would’ve fallen to the ground at that moment. He then turned to the goblin staring at him and then asked. “Is it alright if I get a heirship test?”
After that entire thing, he was led to another goblin, it seemed as if the goblin wasn’t interested in pleasantries so he wasn’t going to bother, small talk wasn’t exactly his expertise after all. The goblin brought out a piece of parchment, and a knife.
The goblin looked up at Ron and said “Prick your finger with the knife and let 3 drops flow onto the parchment.” The goblin said dryly. Ron did as he was told but hesitated slightly when he was about to cut himself but persevered.
Exactly three drops fell and then words started appearing on the parchment
Real name: Ronald Prewet (blocked)
Fake name: Ronald NoName
Status: Pure blood
Mother: None (once Molly Weasley nee Prewett)
Father: None (Once Arthur Weasley)
Heirship:
The Most Ancient and Noble house of Prewett
Inheritance:
The heirship ring of the house of Prewett
Access to the will of Fabian Prewett and Gideon Prewett
Access to the bank vault of Prewett
Access to the Prewett manor
“Ah, I’m still a Prewett. Don’t know whether to laugh at the irony, or cry because I might have done those commissions for nothing.” Ron thought to himself as he yawned and then looked up at the goblin.
“Strange, your name, it should be Prewett, not NoName, I’ll have that changed.” The goblin muttered, then grabbed the papers and left, but not before telling Ron to wait inside the bank. He shrugged and then sat down on a couch nearby. Taking out the second volume, he started reading.
He had only managed the third chapter before a deep voice called out to him. “Mr Ronald Prewett, thank you for your time, everything has been settled.” When he looked up, he saw a different goblin this time, the goblin handed him his documents, a key which must’ve been for the bank vault, an heirship ring, and another paper which must’ve been the will.
He put the key in his pocket, he should probably make a pouch for it, he slided the ring onto his fingers and then put his documents and book into the bag and then grabbed the will. Before confirming that he was free to leave. He then started reading the will of Fabian and Gideon Prewett.
To any child of Molly Prewett, the letter started, Ron was a bit skeptical, how on earth did they know that Molly had children, maybe they were there? He was pretty bad with his timelines. Anyways, he continued on reading.
Ever since Molly had grown up, she knew what she had wanted to do, she had wanted to marry into a wealthy family and raise a girl. We had supported that dream, until we had caught her mixing love potions to give to a kind boy named Arthur Weasley. We had tried to stop her, but the headmaster had cornered us and forced us to comply.
From then on, we tried to distance ourselves, we had never known how this would happen, we didn’t know what had gone wrong with her, she used to be such a lovely child. Now she’s a woman mad with hunger. So whenever she had her first son. We knew that she was not going to stop until she could get her perfect life. She had more sons after that and we kept saying that she should stop but she would not listen.
By the time you are reading this, we must have died already. But just to let you know, that the cause of our pass was not because of Lord Voldemort. We decided that a child that Molly disowns will be an official Prewett, and will have the inheritance she will never get.

“Huh, so Molly was evil before she gave birth. That’s nice to know,” Ron mumbled, then he walked into Fortescues and ordered a chocolate ice cream with sprinkles. “I want dino nuggies.” He thought, licking his ice cream. He’s been bored, it’s only the 6th day after school ended, but he was bored.
He decided that he might as well get prepared getting birthday presents, he knew that making Hadrian another suit would send him into cardiac arrest but he wanted to make something at least.
“Should I bake?” Ron wondered, but quickly scrapped that thought, the last time he baked. His parents grounded him for a month because he couldn’t get a step right and his sister threw a tantrum at the sight of a failed pastry.
He could cook, but he didn’t think that would make a nice gift. “I’ll just make an accessory.” Ron decided he could use a Garnet gem or an emerald as the gem, he could probably make the accessory a brooch or bracelet, it could also be a necklace… He then started continuing his train of thoughts and finally came up with an idea. “Friendship bracelets!” It would be a bit childish.
But he never really had friends to give bracelets too, his parents made sure of that. Now that he thought about it, he never actually made anything for anyone except unless he was forced to. This would soothe his inner child so much. He grabbed his sketchbook and then started drawing how he wanted the bracelets to look.
He wanted all of their bracelets to be different but have some sort of connection. He wanted to use gems, they would all have different gems that would have their initials carved into them. He wasn’t going to be the one carving though, he’d have to get someone else to do that.
He would use gems that matched their eye color, mainly because he just wanted a blue gem for his own eyes. For himself, he would use either Opal or Sapphire. Harry would definitely be getting emerald, Garnet for Neville, Tourmaline for Hermione, Amber for Samuel, and lastly pearl for Lucas.
The base would be either gold or silver depending on the person and after sketching a few sketches per person. He finally got it. Samuel and Lucas would get there during Hogwarts. He was likely going to be invited to Neville's birthday party, Hadrian… Yeah there was no denying it even if he wanted to.
Neville, Hermione, and him were going to get gold, while Samuel, Hadrian and Lucas were getting Silver, he felt these would be right. The easy part was getting the bases, the wizarding world sure had a bunch of shops that would sell jewelry bases, and if you knew where to go, the costs could get really cheap.
The hard part was actually making them. It wasn’t until nighttime where he finished half of the bracelets. It was getting pretty late so he was just going to get some rest and finish the rest tomorrow. Besides, he wanted to finish the rest of the book he bought in the morning and he wasn’t sure skipping dinner would be a good idea when he had already skipped Lunch. He was going to have to explain to Hermione why was still so skinny again. Wasn’t he?
