Fics like burn the pages (but you can’t erase it)

Percy has always walked a half-step out of beat with the rest of his family. He isn’t cool, not the way that Bill and Charlie are; he’s staid and stuck-up and boring. He doesn’t enjoy pranks, and he doesn’t like surprises at all. He likes the stability and order provided by rules, and he’s always had a fairly low tolerance for chaos. And then the war— In so, so many ways, his parents and brothers and Harry had an easy war. They spent most of it hidden, truly hidden, where any discovery could mean death. Percy had spent the war out in the open, at risk of being a target at any time. They had no need for moral ambiguity, no careful balancing act of appearing to conform while covertly sabotaging You-Know-Who’s aims. His parents, his brothers had the luxury of never knowing whether their actions had directly led to the death of anyone—and of never having to grapple with whether it was justified.
