where do the students of hogwarts get all their mundane crap, like toothpaste or soap? don’t tell me dumbledore sends dobby down to hogsmede every month to pick up their bulk order of Wizard Colgate
Petunias. Gets me every time
Timer apps have been a welcome change among the potion brewing enthusiasts, who used to rely primarily on hourglasses. Sometimes the difference between keeping something over the burner for 45 seconds and 48 seconds is a potion that changes your hair to jelly rather than cure a sore throat.
“See this guy? He think he can beat me on the quidditch field”
“ You bet I can beat ya”

1. The engraving above the Mirror of Erised reads “I show not your face but your heart’s desire” when read backward.
2.“Expecto Patronum” translates to “I await a guardian” in Latin.
3. Ron’s Patronus is a Jack Russell terrier. Hermione’s is an otter.
Jack Russell terriers are known for chasing otters.
4. George was never able to perform a Patronus after Fred’s death.
5. According to J.K. Rowling, Hedwig’s name came from a book of saints.
6. The letters in Remus Lupin can be rearranged to spell “primus lune.”

We all do :)
Oh no Tom ! Don’t be embarassed !
We know what goes on on the inside.
Hope you had fun playing with Daniel’s wand 😊
since i can’t believe no one else has done it yet: great comet hogwarts au. pierre is obvs. a ravenclaw (“drink and read and drink and read and drink” is the most ravenclaw thing i’ve ever heard in my life) and probably a prefect just b/c he’s a dork; helene and anatole come from a long line of pureblood slytherins (they might not be ambitious but their father sure is, and you can’t say they’re not cunning), helene is pan and everyone is in love with her but she’s just Too Cool™ 4 them; marya d. is gryffindor, and also incidentally head girl, and also incidentally will kick ur ass if you mess with any of the wee baby first years; sonya and natasha are twenty tiny first years, sonya’s hufflepuff (she’ll stand in the dark for her friends) and natasha’s gryffindor (she’s not afraid of anything); dolokhov runs a duelling club, has disarmed everyone ever to point a wand at him, is the most exasperated hufflepuff ever to hang with a pair of slytherins ever; old bolkonsky is the professor of history and everyone hates him and poor hufflepuff mary b. (she stays with dad even though he’s fuckn awful) gets a bad rep b/c of him and doesn’t really have any friends, hangs out in herbology a lot (it’s quiet and nice there); andrei is a quidditch ace gryffindor being a transfer student to durmstrang (he’s not here) and natasha hero worships him, but then gets a crush on much older anatole and ends up waiting by the dangerous womping willow for him. dolokhov and marya and pierre stop him and he never turns up. balaga’s the groundskeeper you rarely see but will let you fuck around in the forbidden forest if you bribe him (*coughs* anatole and dolokhov)

Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin sisters at the Yule ball

I’ve seen a few posts mentioning the Houses that Vox Maquina would be sorted into if they were at Hogwarts. This has intrigued me, and so I decided to share my opinion on the matter.
Grog Phillip Strongjaw – Given his flexible morals, a big part of me wants to let him loose on the Slytherins. It would be worth it purely for the comedic value. But it’s hard to associate this lovable lug with cunning and ambition, so that’s a no. And while you can definitely make an argument about Grog’s loyalty leading him toward Hufflepuff, I think this fearless giant belongs to Gryffindor. Expect him to be the most terrifying beater the school has ever seen. Favorite Class: Care of Magical Creatures. Familiar: Rat. Because it’s bad ass.
Keyleth – It is very tempting to put Keyleth in Ravenclaw, the girl has some brains on her. But her social awkwardness being what it is, I think this cinnamon roll needs to be in Hufflepuff. She’s going to need that support system. Expect her to be a champion of House Elf rights. Favorite Class: Herbology. Familiar: Cat named Minxie who constantly misbehaves.
Percival … De Rolo, the Third – Toss-up between Slytherin and Ravenclaw. But in the end, I think his love of learning will trump his ambition, if only barely, so Ravenclaw it is. Percival is a natural politician, so expect him to be making contacts for the future within the school when he’s not working on his special projects. Also expect him to wreak unholy vengeance on anyone who hurts his friends. So whatever you do, don’t be a bully anywhere near him. You have only yourself to blame otherwise. Favorite Class: Potions. Familiar: Owl. It’s the only civilized choice.
Pike – Definitely a Hufflepuff, although there’s a fair bit of Gryffindor in her, and honestly she’d fit in well with either house. But at the end of the day our favorite little monster is a Badger. Expect her to be warm, caring and loving to all the students. Unless she’s on the Quidditch pitch where she will own you! Favorite class: Charms. Familiar: Rat. He’s so fluffy!
Scanlan Shorthalt – Honestly this was the hardest sorting for me, but in the end I had to go with Slytherin. His ambition is a little low, and probably doesn’t extend further than him and his friends being happy and loved. But our little bard is one cunning SOB, and certainly not above a little trickery – so long as it’s for a good cause. Or really funny. That being said, Scanlan wouldn’t care for house politics so you can expect him to mingle with all of the other houses in the school with ease and no shame whatsoever. If someone’s throwing a party, he’s coming. Invited or not. Favorite class: Charms. Familiar: No thanks. Too much like work.
Vax'ildan – Gryffindor. Pretty sure the hat will barely be on his head before announcing that. I suspect this will be the one sorting I’ll get the most flack for, but it’s the only one I refuse to budge on. I am dying on this hill, folks. But what about Hufflepuff, you say? His loyalty extends to one person. His sister. But what about Ravenclaw? Pfft! Have his plans ever worked? But - but – Slytherin!? Look I love the guy, but cunning isn’t his strong suit. And his ambition begins and ends with his sister being safe and happy. Sorry, but Mister Dagger Dagger Dagger is all about bravery, self-sacrifice and recklessly leaping into the fray, so bring on the red and gold. You can expect him to somehow find himself inexplicably falling into one adventure or another, much to his sister’s annoyance. Oh, and pranks, so many pranks. Favorite Class: Defense Against the Dark Arts. Familiar: Toad. Because it freaks out Vex.
Vex'ahlia – Ah, cunning, ambition – thy name is Vex'ahlia. A truer Slytherin can hardly be found. Whelp. Too bad she’s a Gryffindor. ::Tire Screech:: Wait, what? Yeah, I know. Shocking? Well, not if you think about it for a moment. You see, it all has to do with how the kids are sorted, and by that I mean alphabetically. And Vax would go first. And as I’ve established, he’s a true Gryffindor. And where one twinsie goes, the other follows. Period. Second, we know the Sorting Hat allows for choice. Can you imagine the thoughts roiling in Vex’s mind, when she sees her brother going to Gryffindor. Can you imagine what she would threaten to do to the hat? Seriously take a moment and think about it. If you were the sorting hat, would you be foolish enough to separate them? Yeah, didn’t think so. Another pair of twins for Gryffindor. Expect her to wink her way to the top of the food chain, and possibly joining the Quidditch team. Favorite Class: Care of Magical Creatures. Familiar: “Cat” named Trinket. Boy, that cat sure is getting big.
half-blood-master-of-potions asked:
25. “I can’t believe you talked me into this.” Minerva/Severus
“I can’t believe you talked me into this,” Severus said with a bitter tone.
Minerva ignored his tone as she was used to it by now, “It’s not like this is any easier on my part, Severus. Trust me I’d rather be doing anything else myself, but it’s just a dance. We needed another chaperone and everyone else is busy.”
Severus looked out at all the students dancing and laughing. He could smell the testosterone and estrogen from the corner of the great hall he was standing in.
“There are a million other things I could be doing right now than watching teenager’s dry hump each other on the dance floor.”
Minerva laughed.
—
Ten minutes had gone by and Severus already had to intervene on two students trying to hex each other and another trying to sneak fire whisky under his dress robes.
“I don’t know how much longer I can do this, Minerva,” Severus crossed his arms over his chest and looked over at her.
“Relax. The dance ends in fifteen minutes anyway.”
Just then two Ravenclaw students came up to Severus and Minerva, giggling to themselves.
“Er — Professor Snape?” One of them said, still slightly giggling, “Do you — er — want to dance?”
Severus glared at the two Ravenclaw’s and back at Minerva, “Like I said, I don’t know how much longer I can do this.”
“Girls, go enjoy the rest of the dance,” Minerva guided the girls back to the dance floor.
—
The dance finally came to a close. Students started shuffling out of the great hall back to their dormitories. Minerva was busy helping a group of Gryffindor girls, one of which was sobbing over Merlin knows what so Severus started the clean up himself. It didn’t take long. By the time Minerva finished with the Gryffindor girls he was already finished, just straightening up one of the long tables that he had to put back into place.
“See? That wasn’t so bad,” Minerva came up behind him.
“For you, maybe,” He said looking over his shoulder.
They both started to walk out of the great hall. Severus didn’t know about Minerva, but he was ready for a three day nap.
“Want to chaperone the next one with me?” Minerva looked over at Severus.
“Very funny.”
