I don’t know the source for this otherwise I’d give it

but this is the most amazing solution to the biggest Harry Potter mystery

But Harry saw Peter on the map when he was in Animagus form. That’s when Lupin took the map. 

That only happens in the movies; in the books Lupin takes it from Harry when Snape almost caught him when Harry sneak into Hogsmede; Harry never saw Peter in the map in the books.

I’ve read this chapter yesterday and Lupin noticed Peter and Sirius’ names on the Map when they were both in animagi form so…

But Lupin knows their secret, so he’d see them, and Harry didn’t until he saw it in the shrieking shack. This is actually really neat

What she says: i'm fine.
What she means: who at Hogwarts decided not to put in standards for Quidditch broomsticks?? the whole Slytherin team has the new Nimbus model thanks to Draco's rich dad, and the fact that a competitive game--sorry, SPORT--can come down to who has the better funding and equipment is just rancorous. Dumbledore wouldn't stand for such unfairness, would he? not even talented Beaters like Fred and George could keep up with Slytherin on their old Cleansweepers. And by the way, who the hell thought it was a great idea to let House-biased teachers take points away from the Houses or give, for that matter, to their own? who oversees this process? Professor McGonagall clearly has no problem taking points from her own House to maintain discipline and order, but what about Snape? it's been noted in the first book that he can just take away points from Gryffindor for arbitrary rules that he just invents on the spot. who's to say his finagling isn't what allowed Slytherin to dominate in total points for the past 6 or 7 years? who is keeping tabs on these teachers? Dumbledore either knows more than he's letting on, or he's doing a very poor job at organizing a school. does he understand the potential for corruption that he has handed those professors through their authority? Professor McGonagall clearly resists the temptation to abuse her power over the point system, but Snape's petty feud with Harry's father has really done a number on him. why is he even allowed to teach, anyway? ... wait, no, I totally forgot the teachers have basically no standards to meet. how does an egomaniac like Lockhart get hired? do these teachers have tenure? what the hell does the Ministry of Magic think of Dumbledore's sideshow of a "school"? why is Hogwarts considered so safe if someone like Quirrel--Quirell?--can get in without anyone noticing, I don't know, his SECOND HEAD? was it only present after Voldemort drank the unicorn blood, or had it been there ever since Quirell/Quirrell had started wearing that turban? did Voldemort never sneeze accidentally? is he even able to sneeze, or would his nasal deformity prevent that? would his host sneeze as well, and would the air come from the host's lungs? can he eat? didn't Quirrell drink the blood for him? how come no one forced him to go take a bath? is Voldemort hydrophobic? is he just disgusting? would he melt if touched by water, just like the Wicked Witch? maybe Dumbledore really is losing his marbles and does such great things during his lucid moments that they've just decided he's worth keeping around. and besides, where else would he go? is there an old folk's home for the magical sort? how does the food compare to that of the Muggle equivalent? do they hire wizards and witches as nurses? what about magical hospice care? where do they go when they die? where do Muggles go? where do WE go? is it all the same place? is there magic there? are there any Muggle ghosts? why haven't they told Muggles about magic? and how in the world do you keep DRAGONS a secret??

In the Harry Potter series we have brilliant genius shit like “I open at the close” which we’re still finding new coincidental significance over, and then we have dumb shit like “you have to say spells out loud but only sometimes because nonverbal spells apparently work.”

We love this series, but for every stroke of genius in the writing, there’s a major loophole or plot oversight that makes it really stupid lol

Like, some of it is planned out by JK like 10 years in advance (like the Snape and Lily thing) while some of it seems to be made up as it goes along, like how wands can just change their allegiance to wizards.

We’re told in the first movie that the wand chooses the wizard, but we don’t find out till the last movie that wands can apparently just change their damn minds?

...and WAIT, Ollivander sensed Draco’s wand’s allegiance has changed and said it might not be Draco’s wand anymore if Harry won it from him, but Harry didn’t win it from him, he literally just ran up to Draco and snatched it out of his hand.

A wand is really gonna change its mind that easily? It’s going to be loyal to the wizard who stole it from its owner? Is that, like, stockholm syndrome only for an inanimate magical object?

When Xenophilius Lovegood explains that his necklace is the sign of the Deathly Hallows and that it’s about the tale of the three brothers, Ron and Hermione are familiar with the story. If they’re familiar with the story, why are they unfamiliar with the Deathly Hallows symbol? If the story was in the copy of Tales from Beadle the Bard that Hermione has been carrying around, AND the symbol was in the book, shouldn’t she have figured that out like 10 pointless camping scenes ago?

I love this post-movies era of Harry Potter fans analyzing the series more closely and coming to realize that Snape truly was despicable scum and not a tragic misunderstood unrequited love villain origins story,

And that Dumbledore was a power-hungry guy who manipulated two smart young wizards for his own agenda rather than the idealized wise mentor figure Harry thought he was,

And that Hogwarts, though a magical and wonderful school in theory, is actually kind of a fucked up place where teachers are abusive and everyone’s life is at risk...

I love how potterheads are asking the real questions like “if Peter Pettigrew could be seen on the Map the whole time, why didn’t Fred and George ever notice that his name was always next to Ron’s?” and “how is Hogwarts still up and running, seriously how does anyone still even let their kids go to this school?”

I just love this fandom’s analyses of the Harry Potter series and how we’re thinking more critically about all of it now. We’re so cool. I love us.

“I should’ve probably mentioned he was a headmaster in the first place because he got appointed to be one by a terrorist organization that took over school for, like, year and a half. These things just kinda used to happen in my day. Ah, whatever, you’re learn all about it during history class, LOL.”

Do you think Harry ever just stops and realises how much his life is different to other people?

“Ye, I was almost murdered by wizard Hitler when I was a year old but I turned him into a ghost, then I stopped him literally once a year from the age of 11 except when I was 13. Now I say it all out loud…”

“And during that one Voldemort-less year my godfather broke into school and everybody got really scared because they thought he was a serial killer, but then, with help of Teddy’s hobo werewolf dad he exposed the simple truth that the actual serial killer was uncle Ron’s pet rat. He had to flee, anyway, though, because The Bravest Man I’ve Never Known kinda tried to put him in prison for crimes he didn’t commit because he got bullied by him and your grandpa as a child and half a century later still dreamt about revenge. It all made sense in the context, son, don’t look at me like that.”

“Oh, and The Bravest Man tried to get Dementors to nom an innocent man’s soul because he picked on him a bit when they were children.”

“Oh, yeah, and the man you get your first name from lied to me and manipulated me for six years until The Bravest Man I’ve Ever Known killed him, which was pretty fucked up really, but the fact that he never stopped wanting to bone your nan totally made up for it all. Ah, you had to be there, really…”

I wonder what kind of sex toys they would have in the wizarding world. Like I bet there’s some sex shop on knockturn alley or somewhere in hogsmeade that sells all sorts of enchanted sex toys to wizards over the age of 17.

Cause let’s be real here, if the wizarding world has magical candies and practical joke products, there’s definitely magical sex toys too. Oh my god, and what would the magical porn industry be like??
