I was thinking of this the whole time! Glad you mentioned it.

2024-10-28 10:12:03 +0000 UTCSo I adore Hogwarts Legacy and am glad it’s considered canon. In the case of this “my animagus form can take a hit for me” case I would be like well don’t know if I want to consider this specific part canon or not but technically in Hogwarts Legacy there are these Wolf-Animagus Villains that you need to defeat in their wolf form and then once they are hurt enough they transform back into a human and then you have to defeat them again before they’re finally gone… so….

2024-10-21 05:00:58 +0000 UTCI was thinking about this too! He would die for his friends, which would mean that he would be taken out first and then voldemort would have to be like... hold on... it didn't work. And he bought them whatever time it took to find and kill him.

2024-10-20 00:22:01 +0000 UTCWell … I personally think that the reason it seemed like a good idea for Sirius to use Peter as the secret keeper even though you cannot torture it out of a person was that Sirius was the obvious choice + the fact that if he’s (which would be likely because he would have been targeted a lot) everyone else who was let in on the secret which we know are a few people including professor bagshot… the charm just instantly become way weaker so … I think it must have seemed better to him to hide it… maybe still die for the potters but still have the secret safe ;)

2024-10-19 11:11:00 +0000 UTC"Why is he so mean to Hermione! She's literally just like Lily" me, on the other side screaming, RACIST RACIST RACIST. Remember yall, Lily Evans was the exception, not the rule, when it came to how Snape treated muggleborns :] it is canonical that he was a tyrant to them in his school days as well

2024-10-18 16:31:00 +0000 UTCWhen Black says he was watching “the quidditch” he’s using common British phrasing - “watching the football”, “watching the rugby” and “watching the cricket” all sound very natural to me

2024-10-15 16:30:40 +0000 UTCDo they end up going to Malfoy Manor with the snatchers?

2024-10-13 14:35:36 +0000 UTCDon’t forget Lupin lost Lily that night, too! Remember Lupin tells Harry how wonderful his mother was!

2024-10-13 13:18:03 +0000 UTCWith expelliarmus and wand owndership, my take is that you only become the master of someone else’s wand if you best them to the point that they lose their wand forever. So a simple expelliarmus in a duel where they are disarmed but then pick it up again and fight wouldn’t mean they’ve lost mastery. Malfoy becomes master because he is the last wizard to disarm Dumbledore before he dies, so Dumbledore never gets his wand back. Malfoy loses mastery when Harry takes his wand and leaves, so Malfoy is left wandless etc. but expelliarmus is used time and time again without affecting mastery, because they nearly always get their wands back! So Snape’s wand would never change allegiance here because the trio don’t take his wand from him, he gets it back! Long thought but yeah, expelliarmus by itself isn’t enough to change allegiance, the wand needs to know its master was bested for good (either by death or being taken for good) ☺️

2024-10-13 11:39:07 +0000 UTCI do love how whenever you guys notice something that doesn't make sense you often try to come up with a headcanon to explain it. It's not something I've ever wanted to do when things in stories bug me, but it does add a bit of extra world-building to the whole experience.

2024-10-13 08:14:32 +0000 UTCI also think that although Sirius said it was his decision to change secret keepers, I can see a world in which it was JAMES who insisted they change because he knew Sirius would rather die than betray them and couldn't stand to have Sirius's death on his concious if that were to happen

2024-10-12 23:51:28 +0000 UTCSecret Keeper logic never makes much sense in the books. Why James and Lily where not their own secret keepers is beyond me. But also, in Lily's letter in Deathly Hallows she invites Sirius to visit implying that even though they are under the fidelius charm Sirius, Peter, and Bathilda Bagshot can find their house. Very confusing, definitely not elaborated on enough.
