Helloo! It's Kate here, dragging another newbie into the madness...

This is Gideon Prewett. Twin of Fabian, brother of Molly and Uncle to 7 mini Weasleys. Also a journalist at the Prophet (it wasn't always a rag, promise!) and member of the original Order. Gideon has arrived from August 1981, fresh from meeting his newborn niece. In other news, Gideon and Fabian got ambushed by DEs on their way home, sooo that means he's also just seen his twin get murdered and comes from his own second of death. Yayyyyy Delphine! ❤

Um... Apart from being a serial womanizer and flirt, Gideon is very charming, cheerful and generally easy to get along with. He loves to chat to people, and has a good sense of humour. He's basically a steroetypical Gryffindor, and the kind of bloke that people accidentally tell secrets to. Then he usually writes about them or passes them on to the Order. #journalism

Did you know I love plots? ;)

	Wheeee... Poppy would probably know him as she went to school with the lot, and I'm open to any kind of plotting where she's involved. Justin would probably find him extremely entertaining and possibly be friends?? He needs more friends that aren't of the lady type - not that he minds being surrounded by lovely lady friends, but he needs a few good male mates. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Hiiii! ❤ So we already spoke about Poppy. Know each other from school and Molly and stuff. :) He'd definitely be up for being friends with Justin! I feel like Gideon is the kind of person just to force his presence on people, so he can't escape! (Mwahaha). (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	madam_poppy 2017-08-10 04:49 pm UTC (link)
	♥♥ Yes, definitely! Poppy's all over that :) That's fantastic, actually! Justin's of the same persuasion, once he gets his foot in the door he kind of latches on. lol Add to that Delphine took one of his best mates, and the other is super duper busy - closest he's had was his dad that was only around for a week. So.... in other words, bring it! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Arthur knows him, obvi. He'll love having gideon around :) Susan and lisa don't know him, but will be nice! Jamie will be super interested in meeting Gideon. So Gideon was a year older than Ted, but friends?!! Lucius says no. Lav doesn't know him, and will respond in some sort of way that we'll have to just see ;) Sara will be her loud friendly self!

	Arthur - Bros (in-law)!! Gideon will be pleased to see him. Arthur's a good egg. Plus he's known him since school and that's basically forever. ;) He'll probably try and hit on the girls (when he's feeling a bit more himself, obvs). Um... Sorry in advance? Yessss! Definitely friends with Ted please! That'll be super fun. ❤❤ YES Lucius. You love him really. (Reply to this) (Parent)

YOU LOVE PLOTS! I LOVE PLOTS! WE HAS PLOTS!

So Frank lolol they know each other. Fellow prefects and then Frank got to boss him around and such as HB. Though, really, I doubt there was much bossing. He didn't get seriousness pumped into him until Auror training. They should have had every bet. Just saying. Frank "can't" turn them down. Also Gideon was probably privy to a few cases of why Frank dun drink anymore <.< AND THEN ORDER AND BOMBNESS AND YES! K! He def knows Nevvie!

George may not be the namesake but he's like HEYAAAAAAA! He was nearly 3.5 when his uncles passed, so he has a vague memory of them. This is either going to be one of the best things for his last piece of baggage...or not lololol SHOULD BE INTERESTING! Either way he's excited to get to know him better and lawl at how much like Fred he is.

Remus knows him from the Order *cough* is aware that people thought he was the mole and *cough* may be harbouring the mole for the mo. *cough* it's a complicated sitch. THIS WILL BE MOST FUN RIGHT HERE!

Dominou is the second daughter of his fave nephew. Because obvs Bill is everyones fave lololol him being a journalist is going to spark her interest since questions after questions are her deal. Difference being that she dun curr about the answers as long as they lead to more questions.

Tom. heh.

He would definitely know of Regulus (even Ron did lol joy of rereading parts while turning books into petals) and the disappearance assumed dead thing.

Megan is now the wife of his namesake! Whoot!

Pansy will be confused he's not ginger. Will probably also call him Weasley. If she ever has a reason to call him anything. Gross people are gross.

PLOTS! PLOTS! PLOTS PLOTS PLOTS PLOTS!!!! <3

Haha. Gideon can totes be Frank's betting mate. Alllllll the stupid bets on all the stupid things. ;) But yes!!!! School buddies and then life/Order/"maybe dont have another whiskey" buddies. It's all the stuff.. I'm excited!!! He'll be glad he's here. ❤

Geeooooorgeee! Don't tell, But Gideon and Fabian totally had a soft spot for the twins
.. for obvious reasons. I hope I don't make his baggage worse! Let me heelllppp, George!!! But he'll be super pleased to see him once things settle down.

Uh. Yeah. Hi Remus. Um... soz about that?

Who can't love Bill, to be fair? He'll be very very glad to chat to Dom about all the things. And get to the bottom of all these new great nieces and nephews/learn their names!

Tom. Hmmm.

Yup, That makes sense. Maybe he heard of it and mentioned it to the Order/covered it briefly in the paper, but never put too much weight into it. Just a lifeblood kid who got in over his head, yeah? Sorry Regulus!!

Hiii Megan! His namesake is punching above his weight, just so you know.

Hes 100% going to try and flirt with Pansy. #sorrynotsorry.

STUPID BETS ON STUPID THINGS LEADING TO WAY TOO MUCH STREAKING! ALL OF IT! I WANT ALL OF IT! AND LOOK A SAMANTHA!! This means Gideon also endured the mess of Franks last relationship <.< which ended in dramz city. whelp. lol may or may not become relevant for a piece. ♥ It will be so good to see Gideon alive and mostly well. He doesn't really hold himself responsible since, yes, he brought Gideon in, but Gideon is also a grown man who can make his own decisions. Just...so upset when he passed. Ugh that hurt.

YAY SOFT SPOT! I mean, how could they not? Not-so-little terrors from the word go! It's his depression baggage lol which half has to do with pride and half has to do with identity <.< the latter bit is the bit I'm a tad nervous about lol BUT it could also be a wonderful thing! I don't know if the world is prepared for George to be done all of his baggage lol not that he'd go for mentor, as he 100% would not lol

About ALL of that. >.>

RIGHT?! Bill Weasley for King. She is totes in for this! And will try not to wander...probably will not succeed.

Hmmmmm indeeeeeeed.

LOLOLOL worst. Curse you Sirius for spreading these awful assumptions lol while the DE side are assuming he was taken out by the mysterious group of people fighting back.

HAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHA Megan is all blushing and disagreeing! (at some point she is going to have to pout at Gwennie to help her lose the baby weight).

That. Is. Amazing. I love it. I love it so much.

I HAVE MUCH FOR YOU!

I mean, first there's Ginny, right? she'll be stoked to meet one of her uncles, if not a little weirder out. but mostly stoked!

of course there's also Victoire. she will be much curious! the more family the better, right?!

also Marlene! order bros! plus she'll SUPER understand the epic trauma he's about to go through with the whole "yep you super died, sorry." I imagine she'd appreciate his flirting, but you know... she's gay so mostly just patted his head and walked away.

Tracey would be super interested in knowing a fellow writer/journalist, as it was actually her first career choice. plus she's generally ok towards people who don't immediately go "ok slytherin bye"

Terry likes almost everyone. I imagine he'd super get on with Gideon.

Draco dun care soz.

HURRRAAYY!!!

There IS Ginny. She's about 3 days old in Gideons time so.. yeah. He mainly knows her as a newborn blob. In the nicest way possible. :) But he's excited to finally have a niece! He'll be glad to get to know her better once he's recovered from his missing twin drama.

Definitely! You can't go wrong with more Weasley relatives SURELY?! Although he's kind of hoping he's not related to EVERY blonde girl on the island. Lol. But he'll be curious to hear about Bill and her life and everything.

Yeeessss! He ❤s his Order bros, clearly. And he needs all the support he can get right now. Haha! He totally flirted with her A LOT, just for laughs. He'll defo have offered to be her fake bf if she ever needs one.

He'll talk to anyone about writing and all that business. I mean... It's more of a job than a passion for him, But as jobs go it's a decent one. Although I'm sorry in advance for him, Tracey.

Defo can see the Terry and Gideon friendship being a thing.

Draco, you're missing out! ;)

omg. she objects to being thought of as a newborn blob. she HAS new blobs. poor gideon. i'm sure they'll get on splendidly. so long as he doesn't incur wrath.

lolololol oh gideon. she'll tell him all about it, no worries. tell him all about her world travels and muggle jails.

order bros are the best. she'll totally awkwardly pat his back whilst he cries. hell, he might even be able to get her through some of her baggage and can go through it together! though the gay part is a HUGE secret. two purebloods in the 70s whose parents DID not approve... #baggage. feel free to make her the blonde she can't has XD

lololol tracey can handle him. meow~

they can be complete knobs together!!

lol he disagrees. but at least he won't be a terrible dick.

	oh, and gideon totally bested marlene by a few weeks in the sequence of deaths. hey, he might have even written about the murders! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	strangestrabbit 2017-08-11 12:38 am UTC (link)
	I love the Prewetts. I have a terrible obsession. Emmeline would sort of know him at this point in time. I think he was 3 years older. By his time, she would have been in the order. But now she's just a pathetic alcoholic. He will probs hate Rabastan. Let's be real here. Hannah, Angie and Oliver wouldn't know him! But I mean, Angelina is sort of fam! :D (Reply to this) (Thread)

Haha. They are sooo fun! <3

Awh. Gideon would have made an effort to know all the Order people, so I’m sure he’d know who she is. He’ll be sad to see that she’s all boozing now. Although without Fabian he wouldn’t be wholly against joining her. Lol. Maybe they can pall up.

Almost definitely. Sorry Rab!

Nope, he has no idea who they are either. But he’ll be chatty with them and stuff… He’s interested to get to meet Angelina, cos he loves Fred and George. They are his mini people. :

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	strangestrabbit 2017-08-11 12:16 pm UTC (link)
	They are!!! If I ever had more time or drive, I'd think about Fabian. Emmeline says stick around long enough, and you'll join the whiskey dark side. Between nothing to do and clinical depression... ;p. He's pretty used to it and just shrugs. At least Lucy likes him :p. Angelina loudly declares she's the best so.. that'll be fun.

Hiiiiiiiii ♥

Dorcas - He will know Dorcas from the Order! I imagine they were friends/friendly and she'll be happy to see another familiar face. Like Marls she understands the whole "oop - you're dead bai" thing so might try to help him through that? IDK BUT SHE NEEDS FRIENDS!

Alicia - Will probably flirt bc it's fun. Not sorry!

Astoria - Will be polite-ish? Idk

Theodore - Might engage in conversation, dunno

Helllooooo!

Yesss, friends definitely. He probs playfully flirted with her, but would have just laughed if she told him where to go. ;) He needs help though! More with losing Fabian than his own death, but yeah... friends are good!

He'd love that, Alicia. I'm not sorry either.

Haha. That's good enough! He can work with polite. And he'll chat to Theodore if he chats with him. He's not fussy who he talks at. ;)

I have been really bad at replying to these lately... :(

Fred is the most relevant. He has only the vaguest memories of his Uncle Gideon, most of which are probably fabricated from bits and pieces his parents told them. He'll be thrilled to see him and will want to show of however/whenever he can.

Alice is a year older than him and was in Hufflepuff. She was also in the Order and married one of his best buds! But isn't the most personable, so Gideon may or may not have been a bit confused by the match at first. She'll be (surprisingly) friendly with him!

Andromeda is a year younger than him and was in Slytherin, and though I have trouble imagining a world in which they didn't know of each other's families before Hogwarts, I also don't think they were chummy. That is, possibly until recently, if he's buds with Ted? This is not stuff I know, but I'm also desperate for friends for her. >_>

Lily was also in the order, obviously. SO SO SO sorry to hear about the Prewetts. Do you think they might've been chummy, despite the age difference? She and Frank are closeish...?

Sirius was also-also in the order... Which mean I need to ask, what did Gideon think of the not-mole Marauders?

Hugo is some dude from the future who owns a shop and will undoubtedly bug him at some point.

Matt is some dude from the future who read a LOT of history books and somehow has a better understanding of who the Prewetts were than Hugo, how's related to them.

Ernie is some dude who was born when Gideon's from and who pretends to know what's going on on this island. (He doesn't.) But genuinely wants to help...?

:)?
