mcgonagall:
do you think we should start requiring permission slips for quidditch? i mean, potter literally lost all the bones in his arm last year
dumbledore:
nah
mcgonagall:
also, maybe we should let parents know if we're gonna send students into the forest for detentions? remember when we sent potter in there and you-know-who tried to kill him?
dumbledore:
nah
mcgonagall:
well, maybe we should get permission from parents for extracurricular activities. dueling club last year resulted in potter being outed as a parsletongue, and everyone thought he was the heir of slytherin for most of the year
dumbledore:
nah
mcgonagall:
alright, well, potter wants to know if he can go to hogsmeade. the abusive muggles you saddled him with wouldn't sign his form
dumbledore:
you wanT HIM TO GO TO HOGSEMEADE WITHOUT A PERMISSION FORM??? DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS??? HE MIGHT GET CAVITIES FROM ALL THE CANDY HE MIGHT BUY. I WON'T BE RESPONSIBLE FOR A LAWSUIT, MINERVA
I saw this post by pottergenes and since I’m italian and I have all the Harry Potter books with the italian covers I decided to show you some of the magnificent illustrations inside the books, just the ones worth my comments.
Here we go: Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone
This is the cover. I already have like a thousand questions to ask about it, like why is Harry’s hat a rat?? Is the one one next to Harry an actual giant rat? Is it smirking? Why does it have a blue bandana? Why the hell is it smirking?? Why are they playing chess??? Is the rat winning??? Why did they gave you this book for Christmas, mom???
But alright, let’s go on:
Here we have McGonagall and Dumbledore. Look at her whiskers and her cat nose and her… fishbone pin?? Also her glasses are super glamorous, nice one McGonagall. Dumbledore is looking at her in a suspicious way though, I’m a bit worried.
I know what you’re thinking: This must be professor Quirrell
WRONG
IT’S FUCKINGSNAPE
That’s right, did I mention Snape is a sort of Sayid from ‘Lost’ in this book? Or let me say it better, he’s like some kind of indian man with a turban and with a book that is bigger than himself and yes that’s right guys this is how I imagined Snape before the movies came out and I was so confused when I saw Alan Rickman as Snape I didn’t even recognie him as Snape
Also there’s a frog?? In the jar?? Looking at Snape??
This is Hermione crying but this isn’t the point of it the point is WHAT’S WRONG WITH YOUR HAIR HERMIONE WHERE ARE YOU BUSHY/MESSY HAIR OMG WHAT’S GOING ON IN THIS BOOK
I don’t know about you but I LOVE James and Lily in this one! James’s hair is messy like it should be and it’s like Harry’s so A+++ on the hair. Lily is really pretty and James’s hand is on Lily’s arm and they’re so cute together, also there are Harry’s relatives and one of them has aviator glasses?? I don’t care why?? I love this?? Who is that a kid next to Lily?? Is that Harry?? Who the hell is that kid???
Btw I love this one, really
VOLDEMORT IS DRACULA I REPEAT VOLDEMORT IS DRACULA
Like seriously that’s totally Dracula don’t even fight me on it. Yes, in this book Voldemort has a nose and eyebrows and some weird ears, he’s totally Dracula.
This is it! If you want me to do another book just ask, I hope you liked it (:
“How are you so calm?!” “I’ve passed beyond stressed, beyond hysteria, into the grey misty indifference of complete shutdown of all but emergency services in my brain.”
when i say “i love every cat” i quite literally mean that i love every single cat in the world, no matter how mean or ‘ugly’ or anything. i have so much love in my heart for every furry cat on this earth and i am on a mission to pet them all
