Important question: if Harry spent most of fifth year dreaming about that locked door in the department of mysteries, did Voldemort spend that year dreaming about things like kissing cho chang or falling off brooms in quidditch matches? Did Voldemort also dream about Cho screaming in Harry’s face, “Cedric gave me loads of Chocolate Frog cards!” did Voldemort wake up going, “Why the fuck does this girl want chocolate frog cards when all I want to do is kiss her” and then being like “wait what the fuck i dont want to kiss this girl what a werid dream”
“and then peter fucking BETRAYS us dude, he turns into a rat and cut off his own fucking finger” *worried peter noises*

Greyback is an adult Male who purposely attacks and infects children (specifically) with his illness.
Greyback is a metaphor for pedophiles, and more to the point, pedophiles who infect children with HIV on purpose. Which also feeds into the homosexuals are pedophiles stereotype from back in the day.
i once read an analysis that said lycantropy was a metaphor for pedophilia instead… bc those are just “instincts you try to control but can’t”… and basically saying everyone was so suspicious of remus being a teacher and hanging out with Harry bc he was an actual pedophile…
this was a published analysis as well. the author got money for saying this pedo bullshit and we on tumblr get nothing. i’m lowkey salty (but also very pissed off at that terrible analysis)
Hey remember when JKR said the sk*nwalker wasn’t actually a horrible monster and was just native Americans being dumb and not understanding wizard shit
Remember when she deadass said that for real and thought that was fine
Also remember when she thought there were just random ancient castles in North America like how there are in europe. Do you remember
She was like “the American wizard school goopygloop is in an ancient castle in North America”. First of all who built that shit. The pilgrims? My guy jebadiah who has 9 children dying of dissentary like oh yeah I’m gonna build a fully functional Scottish castle right here in the middle of Roanoak. That’s a good use of my time and resources.
I remember being so heartbroken to learn that magic carpets were banned in the wizarding world like imagine being muggleborn and being this close to re-enacting “A Whole New World” from Aladdin (1992) and finding out it was illegal
That wouldn’t stop James Potter or Sirius Black
bold of you to assume that they aren’t the reason they’re illegal
