I distinctly remember certain amongst us hoping that Draco wouldn't be forced to take a detour into the jaws of some escaped beast or something.
Yup, I worried Draco was going to try to "get" Harry and Hermione would put him in a box postmarked for Siberia.
I notice again that Harry eats "triple helpings" of whatever Mrs. Weasley bakes. This being the kind of universe it is, she probably makes stuff with a lot of carbohydrate in it. Naturally, Harry remains as skinny as a rail.
Well, that's because weight-gain is a function of morality. As a good person Harry can have a healthy appetite, but will never overeat. Fat on the outside=evil on the inside.
As I've said before, hair going grey is down to genetics and not stress.
Yup. If I thought it would work I'd be glad to not spend the money on dye I've been spending since my 20s. It's just, unfairly, that on men it looks distinguished. (My dad started growing grey at 12, my brother is completely so.)
Florean Fortescue, as well as having a great name, was also a good man and gave out free ice cream to his favourite celebrity customer. For this and possibly other reasons, he has been "dragged off".
They're probably forcing him to make them Evil Matterhorn Sundaes and smush-ins.
I notice that Bill is "being plied with wine" by Fleur. Surely she doesn't have to get him trollied to shag her?
Harry is one of those gay men who sees women as evil succubi--of course a healthy boy like Bill must be gotten drunk to shag her! In his right mind he'd prefer a manly game of Quidditch!
Still, any bulimics in the magical community won't have to bother with fingers down the throat.
Yes, funny how this is one of those rare times when fandom doesn't get all super serious about Issues and talk about how these things could be abused. In fact, when they are abused in canon it's still a good thing!
What is the point of the Daydream Charms? I mean, can't these people have daydreams on their own?
Wizards are just that unimaginative, I guess. Only I wonder what happens if a teacher calls on you in the middle of one. Wouldn't you be safer doing it on your own? Plus, do you get stuck with only daydreams Fred and George would come up with? So you're pulling out the chair before Filch sits down for 20 minutes?
You know, I'd have thought that Muggle stuff would be more interesting to magical kids than boring old regular magic.
Muggle stuff is inherently boring and stupid, as are Muggles. We can't stress this enough. Everybody wants to be a wizard.
It makes sense that Fred and George would be expanding into weaponry. They were generally damaging stuff anyway.
Just remember it's not their fault if it gets into the wrong hands and they get all the credit if a good guy uses it.
Also, not really keen on the way the products supposedly aimed at women are all love potions and pink stuff, whereas boys get to look at things that go bang and produce smoke.
Yeah, you notice? In fact, there are very few positive female relationships that don't revolve around love potions and stuff. Why do Hermione and Ron have to tag along when Harry wants to stalk Draco? Harry can do it on his own later in the book.
I guess Harry mistakes his own erotic excitement for a thrilling adventure that Ron and Hermione would naturally want to be in with him. He doesn't know why they don't feel the thrill of it.
