“So Ginny poured out her soul to me, and her soul happened to be exactly what I wanted.... I grew stronger and stronger on a diet of her deepest fears, her darkest secrets. I grew powerful, more powerful than little Miss Weasley. Powerful enough to start feeding Miss Weasley a few of my secrets, to start pouring a little of my soul into her..."

Eleven year olds write trash in their diaries. This is fact. Voldy really had no idea what he was getting himself into.

sirius black getting so drunk one night that he transformed into padfoot and ate everything that dogs cannot eat and he wakes up the next day and he’s like whAT THE HELL DID I dO and he’s on edge for the next couple of days crying ‘am i going to die’

 james has to remind him that he’s not really a dog but then remus is quiet for a second before going ‘but he ate it as a dog’ and they’re all like stumped for words until peter asks mcgonagall a ‘totally hypothetical’ question about eating things whilst in animagus form 

I bet all the Hogwarts teachers get an unreal amount of “totally hypothetical” questions from students.

“Hey Slughorn wtf’s a horcrux? Just for laughs” -Voldemort

I think a lot about Tom Riddle originally introducing the name Voldemort to his crew during hogwarts, like how did it even work?? He just woke up one day and was like….followers…I’m not Tom anymore… I’m Lord Voldemort???? And it stuck???? I’m sorry I just

Hey…Lord Voldemort… Do you know what the charms homework was?

Tom Riddle really put his soul into all of his work.

“Of the many fearsome beasts and monsters that roam our land, there is none more curious or more deadly than the Basilisk, known also as the King of Serpents.”

Tom Riddle, c. 1945.

How long do you think Tom riddle just sat there with a piece of paper rearranging the letters in his name to make the perfect evil alias

Spoiler: Harry Potter was bisexual the whole time

It just didn’t say because Harry is very unobservant.

Dude, not even. Someone did a tally of how many times Harry comments on the attractiveness of a male character (Tom Riddle and Cedric mostly) vs. Ginny or Cho, his purported love interests. It’s not even close. He’s very observant. I’ll put money on “Harry grew up in a bigoted household and legit doesn’t have vocabulary for what his emotions keep doing when he sees pretty boys.”

Tom Riddle’s Diary

you know what gets me

Tom Riddle literally tried to suck the life out of Ginny Weasley. and yet she is so FULL OF LIFE. she’s so happy, she enjoys life so much, she’s always looking to have a good time

if that isn’t the final kick in the teeth to what he did to her

he never had a chance of holding this girl down

Breakfast during the Chamber of Secrets

((Based on this vine))

harry immediately after discovering tom riddle’s diary absorbs ink: hello magical book my name is Harry Potter and my age and address and credit card information and password is

okay but if Tom Riddle used the Chamber of Secrets doesn’t that mean that he would have to take that slide down? did he scream? did he go “weeee”? or did he just lie there emotionless as he slid down the pipes?

IT GOT BETTER

I CAN‘T STOP LAUGHING

“Voldemort had entered the room. His features were not those Harry had seen emerge from the great stone cauldron almost two years before; they were not as snake-like, the eyes were not yet scarlet, the face yet not manlike, and yet he was no longer handsome Tom Riddle. It was as though his features has been burned and blurred, they were waxy and oddly distorted, and the whites of his eyes now had a permanently bloody look, though the pupils were not yet the slits that Harry knew they would become.”
