This is the greatest post I have ever laid eyes upon.
HONESTLY.
The most hilarious thing about the fact Buckbeak had a trial and lost is that later on JKR resolves the issue by having Hagrid take him in again and renaming him Witherwings. That’s literally all it took. What if in POA, Hagrid simply said, “Sorry, Buckbeak flew away.”
“There’s a hippogriff right there, Hagrid.”
“A different hipprogriff.”
“I’m… pretty sure that’s the same hipprogriff.”
“Prove it.”
no dna tests we die like scientifically underdeveloped societies
Prisoner of Azkaban continues to be the most frustrating book
Someone should have just adopted Sirius and started calling him Gerald.
Remus: Erm… this is our new order member, my… cousin Gerald. Gerald White.
“Mr. Lupin that is Sirius Black with glasses!” “Oh come now Minister, Sirius Black doesn’t wear glasses. That wouldn’t make sense.” “Well have Mr. White take off his glasses then!” “He can’t he needs them to see.”
Just imagine though all the letters that must have been sent home about the shit Hermione did at school or updates the school sends to muggle parents so they’re kept in the know. And she’s never been in trouble before so her parents think this is just regular wizarding school hijinks because it obviously never has context for them and Hermione just rolls with it
“She saved the philosophers stone.” “Oh good for her! She must have gotten there before everyone else in class”
“People must get petrified all the time. It says not to worry though so it can’t be a serious illness”
“It says they’re obliged to inform us that ‘dementors’ will be at the school all year.” “That sounds exciting, I wonder what subject they’ll be teaching?”
“She’s been selected to participate in the second triwizard tournament task.” “Yes we had a letter about the tournament, she must really be getting stuck in with it and making all sorts of foreign connections.”
“Says she was part of a secret defence club?” “Oh I’m so glad she’s finally getting involved in the clubs, it’ll be good for her, you know she studies too much”
“I wonder why we didn’t get any updates from the school this year? They always seem to have something going on.”
“I’ve been thinking you know, about moving to Australia. We did always want to.” “I don’t know what’s been stopping us all these years to be honest. Let’s do it.”
You lured me in and then stabbed me in the back
I’m not crying, my eyes are raining that’s all.
I was on the bus thinking about Harry Potter tonight and I remembered the part where the Dementors all show up at the Quidditch game, and I remembered how they were all looking up at Harry, and I wondered why they would all be staring at him, and then I realized that it’s because he has two souls in him.
On this note, wouldn’t that also be a reason why Harry would have had a more negative reaction than his friends (even Ginny)? He was hearing his mother’s voice as she was protecting him, which in itself was his worst memory. but the Dementors were also forcing the piece of Voldemort to relive its worst memory as well… The memory of being ripped apart by the curse that backfired. No wonder Harry passed out so often.
I literally never thought about that.
omg…
HOLY
can y’all shut the fuck up about snape when we had LITERALLY THE SWEETEST MAN EVER
Can we talk about how Hagrid is a half-giant and basically the only of his kind at Hogwarts? How his birth was revealed without his consent in a “news” article, causing parents to see him as incompetent and violent? How he took the fall for a crime he didn’t commit because he looked brutish and dumb compared to the golden-child prefect Tom Riddle, who accused him? How this caused him to miss out on the rest of his education and left him to be banned from using magic, the biggest indicator of outsider status in the magical world? How, despite all of this, he’s still genuinely a better person than a kid who got bullied a few times and became obsessive over the girl he didn’t get? How Hagrid’s love of those big, scary monsters isn’t because he’s silly or naive, but because he knows what it’s like to be seen as a monster when it’s not true? Hagrid is miles more interesting and compelling, but people can’t get past the obsessive, creepy asshole. I have strong feelings about Rubeus Hagrid.
everybody: remus lupin is the mature, rule abiding, boring marauder
remus lupin: turns up late to his first class and then makes neville conjure snape dressed in drag
Guys. I just realized something.
I JUST REALIZED SOMETHING.
In this scene in DH part II, Harry, Ron and Hermione are just running around doing shit. Until now, I thought it was rather pointless and that they just took it in the movie to add some action.
But then.
I REALIZED SOMETHING.
Okay, in this order, it happens.
First, a giant, ugly creature tries to kill them with a large weapon. They hide behind a pipe.
Second, there are spiders. Loads of ‘em.
Third, there is a werewolf.
Then, there are dementors.
In that particular order.
Still don’t get it? We’ll take it again.
FIRST, A GIANT, UGLY CREATURE TRYING TO KILL THEM WITH A LARGE WEAPON AND THEY HIDE BEHIND A PIPE.
SECOND, THERE ARE SPIDERS. LOADS OF THEM.
THIRD, THERE IS A WEREWOLF.
THEN, THERE ARE DEMENTORS.
thank you and goodnight
Then the Order of the Phoenix appears, and then they get to the Half-Blood Prince.
This is one of the best HP insights I’ve ever seen and that’s saying a lot.

Endless list of things that should have been in the movies ↳ Prisoner of Azkaban, p 120
“Then you should know, Potter, that Sybill Trelawney has predicted the death of one student a year since she arrived at this school. None of them has died yet. Seeing death omens is her favourite way of greeting a new class.”
Wait wait wait
so there was a theory bouncing around that Trelawney was actually scary accurate, right?
What if every student she predicted died in the battle for Hogwarts?
THATS JUST WHAT I WAS THINKING
I’m done.
*sobs*
It’s interesting because if you go back and reread the books, every single one of Trelawney’s predictions, even the really ridiculous ones, came true. So this is actually not only possible but highly probable.
WHAT MADE YOU THINK THIS WAS OKAY
New back covers for the Harry Potter book series by Jonny Duddle
Happy birthday, Harry Potter! To celebrate Harry’s birthday (and my undying love for the series), I made my own covers! I created patterns (Thanks for the inspiration Scandinavia!) using a significant object from each book. I used those in the movies as reference and digitally painted them. You can view the whole project here! :)
(It’s already July 31 here in the Philippines. Haha.)
