ophelions:

after the war, the weasleys lean heavily on bill and fleur. though skeptical of their relationship at first, the family sees happiness and hope in the young couple, culminating in fleur’s pregnacy not long after the battle of hogwarts and victoire’s birth on the anniversary of that fateful day. not only was fleur’s daughter a symbol of triumph and victory, but fleur herself was a widely praised figure of bravery for her actions during and after the war. she was awarded medals of honor from both british and french ministries of magic, and would go on to facilitate negotiations between the two countries to aid in the reconstruction of post-war wizarding society. bill, on the other hand, remained on the outskirts of the spotlight, quiet but ever-supportive of his wife. he resumed his old job at gringott’s as a curse-breaker, and frequently traveled back to egypt to explore and work amongst the ruins and tombs there. he wears his hair pulled back when he works, the sun shining over the long jagged scars across his face. and when he comes back laden with presents for his girls, they welcome him back with open arms. 

they are survivors, and they are proud to show it off.
