[zealous meadow]

Interesting, an own independent character sounds fun too

[karmic swan]

Your PS5 Character will be a Gaunt?

[sly inlet]

No, i mean ideological precursor

[true juniper]

Ill have mine be an ancestor of dobby to destroy the lore completely XD

[zealous meadow]

Imagine Creating Voldemort grandfather!

[sly inlet]

dont think they went to hogwarts (gaunts)

[zealous meadow]

oh wait

[karmic swan]

I'm sure there will be quite a few people naming themselves after the founders.

[zealous meadow]

how old is our character? he is in 5th year

[hexed spade]

15/16?

[sly inlet]

11 + 5 = 16 or 15

[true juniper]

Great great grandfather likely*

[umbral remnant]

Think we'll be able to join the Quidditch team?

[sly inlet]

i hope so

[true juniper]

We dont think quidditch is in

[karmic swan]

Well the Quidditch pitch is visible in the SoP.

[zealous meadow]

and the story is based in what year?

[hexed spade]

1890

[karmic swan]

1890

[sly inlet]

maybe there will be perks to fighting if you are quidditch player, imagine evasion perks

[zealous meadow]

im trying to see if my MC can be Voldemort grandfather

[hexed spade]

you do what you wanna do

[zealous meadow]

its trying to make it make sense

[true juniper]

Why? XD

[zealous meadow]

Marvolo Gaunt (maternal grandfather) †

i can be him

[zealous meadow]

because he was cute....

According to Dumbledore Marvolo cherished his family heirlooms as much as his son, and more than his daughter.[5] Another sense of irony in Marvolo Gaunt's character was his anti-intellectualism, despite his boastfulness about being a wizard. While he may have been too poor to afford tuition to Hogwarts or any other wizarding school, Marvolo did nothing in his power to improve his wizarding skills, as he did not own any wizarding books nor borrow them from friends or a library.

oh so i cant be him since he didnt went to hogwarts

[sly inlet]

you could be descendant of merlin kek saw that theory going around

[true juniper]

Theres a football (european) field in gta5 but you cant play XD
The quidditch system would take alot of work, especially as you're only controlling one player, and I assume you dont want it to be a ring flying minigame. The amount of work that would need to go into quidditch, it might aswell be its own game. I doubt its in and I suggest not to get your hopes up.

[zealous meadow]

thomas riddle was born in 1880 so i cant be him either

[true juniper]

I dont see how tbh but then again, I aint into guys XD

[near stirrup]

The Riddles are muggles

[umbral remnant]

Sorry, wrong reply

[karmic swan]

Voldemorts Father?

[true juniper]

Was the right reply I think?

[umbral remnant]

Wait it was, lmao

But yeah, didn't they make a Quidditch game back in 2003? Not this company I mean, but still

[zealous meadow]

So since I want to be a Ravenclaw i Have to be Roger and Chester Davies Grand Grand Father

[lunar lava]

for ps2 game it was a really good game

[zealous meadow]

thats grandfather its impossible to be the father since our character was born in 1874/5

[near stirrup]

I honestly just want my character to be a muggle-born from a family of no renown

[candid mist]

making a name for yerself

[zealous meadow]

maybe the story will makes us choose our backgrounds like the dragon age games

[karmic swan]

I miss Dragon Age games.

[zealous meadow]

i want to be a pure blood

[candid mist]

typical slytherin

[near stirrup]

A wretch that wakes up lying in a puddle with nothing but his underwear and a wand and no memories of how he got there

[zealous meadow]

but ig i can be a half blood

[karmic swan]

Damn that's deep.

[zealous meadow]

not all slytherin are full blood tho

[karmic swan]

Voldemort and Snape were both half bloods.

[near stirrup]

Then I get insulted by the first person I talk to who says I have no witches

[zealous meadow]

and also albus potter

[candid mist]

they also rly wanted to be pure bloods

[karmic swan]

Snape didn't care about his status, Voldemort shunned his muggle father and ignored that side.

[sly inlet]

albus potter doesnt exist, he was created by harry potter's dream vision of the future

[karmic swan]

Eh?

[candid mist]

oh i didnt mean to lump snape into that

[umbral remnant]

Realistically, when I am able to fly in the game, I'd do it because it'll be awesome, lmao. Then eventually if I'm in a hurry, I'll fly around as well. But honestly, I'll be walking everywhere because I wanna immerse myself in the environments

[zealous meadow]

The background of Sebastian looks interesting, I will hang out with him the most, i hope he likes my Ravenclaw ass

[candid mist]

i was more thinking about tom riddle

[zealous meadow]

are you dumb? at the end of the last book they mentioned his son lol

Harry had 3 sons

i mean children

[karmic swan]

In my opinion, Snape has one of the best written stories I've ever read.

[sly inlet]

no, i am referring to the haters of the sequel is all

[candid mist]

agreed

[zealous meadow]

yeah but he is real... lol

[candid mist]

albus was at the end of deathly hallows

[true juniper]

But yeah, with that game it had alot of workarounds to make it work as a videogame. I remember seeing someone who saw dev talks about it and they had alot of trouble thinking about how to go around about doing it. And with that you can play as every character and you switch roles depending on circumstances. So you were every chaser when attacking and could pass around score. But if you lose it you switch to a beater (and could switch between then) and then when you get to the snitch phase (after making x amount of passes you became a seeker).

But it wouldn't really work playing as one character, not without ALOT of work going into making the AI for whats supposed to be a minigame for the main game. Like how would the seeker work if its not the player? The chasers need to both pass, be available, tackle, try and score. The beaters need to be doing a whole bunch of stuff with the bludgers and everything. It might as well be its own game. And this is without even mentioning making the ball, passing and scoring mechanics etc which need to work with the current broom mechanics. It would be way too difficult

[tender shell]

Holy

[sly inlet]

Not to the haters he isnt, people in my book club are hardcore haters that they disregard the epilogue entirely

[true juniper]

Oops

[umbral remnant]

Real question though is... will we be able to collect Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans?

[tender shell]

[karmic swan]

Not going to lie, the amount you was typing. I thought you was writing a new Harry Potter book.

[candid mist]

who is hating on harrys son existing whuh

[true juniper]

A BEAN!!

[true juniper]

Aha XD

[candid mist]

well theyre just silly arent they

[sly inlet]

What is the character limit on discord messages

[zealous meadow]

My favorite character from The cursed child was the grandson of Harry Potter, Edward Lupin

[karmic swan]

Another important question.. Can we collect Chocolate Frog Cards?

[sly inlet]

Yeah, they are very selective

[candid mist]

its pretty big btw, the character limit

[karmic swan]

2000 letters.

[true juniper]

I think 2000 without nitro

[zealous meadow]

Luke Newberry was cast as Ted Lupin in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, but he was cut from the ending of the film and he is only mentioned by Remus to Harry.[13] Teddy also does not appear in any of the deleted scenes on the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 DVD and Blu-ray.

[karmic swan]

Wrong reply, but yea.

Sorry Claux.

[true juniper]

4000 with nitro as well if I remember

[sly inlet]

thats half an essay, pretty good

[zealous meadow]

I read the cursed child book and Teddy Lupin is adorable, so sad to what happened to his parents

just like Neville

[sly inlet]

yeah the deaths seemed unnecessary, but did add to the sadness

[candid mist]

i really wish the screenplay was actually good all around

[sly inlet]

remus is one of my fav

[zealous meadow]

I mean it happens... it makes more sense in a wizard world

[zealous meadow]

the book is good tho

[umbral remnant]

Would it be too much to ask if we could be able to become an Animagus?

[candid mist]

same thing innit

[zealous meadow]

like Teddy Lupin? That would be cool

[umbral remnant]

Even if it's only like three options, that would still be cool to add to the character

[karmic swan]

Teddy was a Metamorphmagus like Tonks.

[zealous meadow]

I live in Nyc so its easy for me to go and see the play

[sly inlet]

cursed child or deathly hallows?

[zealous meadow]

both

[zealous meadow]

yeah i mean that mb

[sly inlet]

i didnt like cursed child much, but it does show that people can change over time more realistic

too much hate for it from some

[zealous meadow]

People hated that they used a black Hermione as an actress lol

in their defense they never mentioned Hermiones race

so its up to you how you wanna interpretate that character lol

even with the cursed child book

[sly inlet]

i think there was some justification that she was white, but it might be interpreted as being 'pale' or afraid

[zealous meadow]

Hermione does not have a specified race in the books. She is not described as black or white. She is not described as a person of any other ethnicity. There are some subtle clues in favor of her being white though.

[hushed holly]

I think the hate was more for the 2 new timeturners, and the idea that Moldyshorts had somehow had a kid

[sly inlet]

yeah, its vague it could be referring either to skin tone or just fear/anxiety

[hushed holly]

that and the whole "Cedric Diggory becomes a death eater if he's saved"

That was just the dumbest thing ever.

[sly inlet]

that was silly yeah

[zealous meadow]

lol

[dusty portal]

Hiiii

[zealous meadow]

i mean we dont know what could have happen so its a possibility

[hushed holly]

there were a lot of plot errors for Cursed Child, that's why people don't like it

[sly inlet]

it wasnt written by the main author anyway

[zealous meadow]

we dont know that much about Cedric in deep

[ocean mason]

Thinking about it Cedric wouldn't have died if Harry didnt untangle those branches off him

[dusty portal]

I honestly read the Cursed Child and I barely remember it. Usually if I really connect to a story, I remember it but I barely remember any bits of CC

[sly inlet]

The problem with cursed child is that it was written by others

if it was written by JK it wouldnt have turned out as awkward, in the plot

[zealous meadow]

Cedric only liked ppl from Hufflepuff... which its like a triad of Slytherins

[hushed holly]

I wouldn't say that was the problem on the fact that it's a different medium and if you've never written a play before it tends to suck. But Rowling was talked to throughout the entire creation. Still didn't make it good.

[ocean mason]

And then the fact Dumbledore told harry to "make the right decision" and then ultimately makes the wrong one

[sly inlet]

Must've been busy or something, cuz the "book" seems like a mix of fan-fiction and lazy writing

[dusty portal]

"written by Jack Thorne based on an original story by J. K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Thorne" according to wiki. It doesn't seem that J.K. Rowling was leading the narrative, so maybe that's why it throws a lot of people off.

[zealous meadow]

the characters exists tho

[dusty portal]

Yes, hence "based on an original story by J. K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Thorne"

[zealous meadow]

at least some of them because they are mentioned in the last book Like Teddy Lupin

[hushed holly]

Annoyingly it has some good elements though, whilst Moldyshorts deliberately having a child is something that'd never happen, I could understand Bellatrix using magic to make one for her and Riddle.

And that idea of a child of Moldyshorts is actually a really good idea cos you can have the whole "The sins of the father" line and run with that and how it impacts them.

[ocean mason]

Honestly i came across a cursed child copy in our school library years ago and I was surprised it was barely even thicker than philosophers stone

[sly inlet]

It's not really a book, it's a play

[hushed holly]

Thorne wrote it cos he had experience writing stage-plays

[ocean mason]

Then what is it then?

[hushed holly]

it's a script

[ocean mason]

[hushed holly]

if you've ever tried to read the book, it isn't a novel it's literally just the script for the play with character directions included, just made into a book

absolute cash grab move, no care for the product at all

[sly inlet]

bad plot sill 🤣

[ocean mason]

Maybe thats why only skimming through the book, I didnt get a single thing

[candid mist]

yeah it reads weird cuz its a screenplay

[zealous meadow]

Victoire Weasley and Teddy Lupin romance is cute

[hushed holly]

Yeah, I'll give it that

Though I think I agree with the fan canon of Scorpius/Albus

[ocean mason]

Will j.k ever write another hp book

[hushed holly]

cos the whole them crushing on Delphi thing was kind of creepy in how it was written

[smoky bane]

Probably not.

[ocean mason]

[bronze kelp]

it’s a bit unusual to have a script from a production turned into a “book” and released to the public

[hushed holly]

Doubt it, she's mostly just riding off of the popularity of the original stuff

[sly inlet]

As fuzz said, it was a cash grab

[bronze kelp]

definitely

[smoky bane]

I wish she would but her political and personal beliefs have alienated a portion of the fan base.

[ocean mason]

Well, hp is dying off quite a bit now so I doubt it'll last long

[hushed holly]

I remember when the book came out I was interested to read a novelisation of the play, but nope, just literally the screenplay in a book

[sly inlet]

whyd they make it a play though? out of budget for movies?

[silk aurora]

It letierally says on the cover that it was a script

[ocean mason]

Meanwhile I thought cursed childe was a novel, not a script

[candid mist]

jk rowling didnt want to write anymore

[smoky bane]

I disagree. I feel like it plateaued after the last movie and now with HL it’s on an upswing.

[hushed holly]

Then she wrote the Fantastic Beasts films, and err yeah we all saw how Crimes of Grindelwald turned out

[bronze kelp]

i wouldn’t hp is dying, but yeah things have definitely changed

[candid mist]

still havent seen it pls

[sly inlet]

the popularity of hl shows that its not dying, but transitioning

[hushed holly]

General answer is being good at writing books does not mean you are good at writing plays or films

And writing for games is its own special level of difficulty

[sly inlet]

Just because i write good lab reports doesnt mean i can write a book 😆

[candid mist]

am i hearing that the fantastic beasts films are bad, cuz i was actually hyped to watch them

[hushed holly]

The first one is good, the second, I'd skip

[sly inlet]

i liked the films, the 2nd one was all over the place though, with poorly done flashbacks

[zealous meadow]

Louis is the only known male in canon with Veela blood.

[candid mist]

i dont think i can skip lol

im going to see the new one in theatres when it releases

[sly inlet]

feel free to watch, but temper your expectations

[bronze kelp]

honestly you don’t really miss that much in the second movie

[sly inlet]

yeah it was unnecessarily long

[hushed holly]

I love writing, and in the future I really want to write both books and the stories for some games (luckily I'd also be making the games so I don't have to worry as much there) but it's not the easiest thing to break into.

Until then, I'll just be writing fan fiction

[zealous meadow]

why teddy is hanging out with Malfoy family https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CEcWNhiWoAAMW0M.jpg

they are related right? I forgot, is he his cousin or what

[dusty portal]

Ted? Malfoy's cousin? How

[sly inlet]

he is related thru draco's mom

[hushed holly]

mmhmm

[dusty portal]

Really, like on Tonk's side?

[hushed holly]

Teddy's granma is Narcissa's sister

[dusty portal]

Oh I think I remember that actually

[sly inlet]

tonks' mom is draco's excommunicated aunt

[hushed holly]

Andromeda Tonks nee Black

[dusty portal]

Ahh yeah

[bronze kelp]

technically he and draco would be like first cousins once removed

[hushed holly]

yep

[karmic ledge]

hello, how to download the game?

[hushed holly]

or second cousins once removed

[near stirrup]

@dusty portal What is a fiber faerie, do you use magic to ease bowel movements? 😂

[humble sequoia]

👀

[hushed holly]

that's a bit of a question

[zealous meadow]

ohhh yeah!!! Oh wow i just googled!!!!! So Malfoy is second cousin of Teddy that makes sense why he visits them etc

[candid mist]

its not out till the end of the year

[sly inlet]

'laxify' 🤣

[silk aurora]

It's not even out yet

[zealous meadow]

Teddy grandma sister of Malfoys mother

[near stirrup]

That's a spell with good utility

[dusty portal]

"Fiber optics is the technology used to transmit information as pulses of light through strands of fiber made of glass or plastic over long distances." You're welcome. xD

[near stirrup]

Ah, that kind of fiber

[sly inlet]

Plus draco had some amount of redemption near the end

[dusty portal]

I meant to reply to this one, lmao

But you can all troll me, I really don't mind xD

[bronze kelp]

that would be scorpius’ child I think actually

[hushed holly]

fibre

[zealous meadow]

Yeah that makes sense why he wants to take care of Teddy

[near stirrup]

I am quite the troll, all for fun of course

[karmic ledge]

it should be great if we can use our own face in this game

[candid mist]

lol

[zealous meadow]

lol this of Draco and Teddy interactions https://i.pinimg.com/originals/68/59/bc/6859bc001bf696c26fca3114b566a669.jpg

[dusty portal]

Ofc lol

[zealous meadow]

https://pm1.narvii.com/6376/3a5e2ef637d77e614fb53824dcd671cbddc583c2_hq.jpg

[dusty portal]

Haha those are great

[sly inlet]

i liked albus and scorpius' friendship

[near stirrup]

Clicking links on discord is scary

[zealous meadow]

yeah its good to see that even if He didnt have parents He grew up with uncle Harry and cousin Draco

[sly inlet]

yes, got sax and rick rolled quite a bit

[bronze kelp]

did draco and teddy ever actually meet?

[zealous meadow]

of course...

omg so my Teddy is related to Bellatrix too, She was his aunt lol

[sly inlet]

yeah black family is messed up, sirius and andromeda only truly decent ones for the most part

[bronze kelp]

and regulus

[sly inlet]

Eventually, yes

sirius is an interesting character, somewhat of a bully in hogwarts, and gets karma'd in azkaban, then helps/saves harry

[zealous meadow]

Neville and Hannah had children?

[uncut goblet]

no

[hushed holly]

Nope but that relationship kind of comes out of nowhere

[fiery lynx]

Hey

[hushed holly]

That's not even mentioning Rolf Scamander whom apparently married Luna

all the "Whomst?"

[sly inlet]

well that kinda makes sense, luna likes creatures and stuff but neville and hannah was out of nowhere

[wild niche]

[tacit cloud]

hmm

[solar crown]

Wassup

[tacit cloud]

Hey

[solar crown]

How are you guys?

[fiery lynx]

Very nice

[tacit cloud]

Pretty good

[fiery lynx]

And you

[tacit cloud]

just waiting for my shift at work to end

[thick gazelle]

Good, what about you?

[solar crown]

Procrastinating on an essay, as always 💁‍♀️

[tacit cloud]

Oof

[thick gazelle]

Good luck on your essay!

[solar crown]

thank you 😊

[thick gazelle]

You're welcome 😁

[fiery lynx]

Essays can be deep

[humble sequoia]

lets hear the topic gotta get your creative juices flowing

[fiery lynx]

My friend folks knows that, isn’t it? @empty blaze

[empty blaze]

Sure, i guess? Lmaoo

[karmic swan]

She sounds more confused than I am, and I don't even know what we're talking about.

[fiery lynx]

Let your ideas fly folks

[empty blaze]

yess i am kinda confused lmaoo

[solar crown]

It's not really an essay, I gotta do a syntheses of the readings that are due for my class, so it's just rewriting info in a concise and articulated way - it's on migrations and globalisation and issues surrounding those, though

[fiery lynx]

Too much deep

[humble sequoia]

sounds very... scholarly? good luck with that LOL

[karmic swan]

Oh how I don't miss school and their essays.

[tacit cloud]

What class is this for?

[fiery lynx]

I think this is a cup of tea for folks my friend

[solar crown]

that's graduate school for ya

[solar crown]

Economy and globalisation

[empty blaze]

Stopp lmaooo

[sly inlet]

i remember doing a report and interview on water treatment, was pretty nice got to interview a civil engineer and stuff

[tacit cloud]

Of course economy

[sly inlet]

some assignments are interesting, others not so much

[humble sequoia]

economics and globalization sounds like an interesting mixture

[solar crown]

don't worry, there's a part where I can criticize the subject and i'm not gonna hesitate to criticize the economic argument and how its bad bad bad

[tacit cloud]

lol

[sly inlet]

wonder what level of economy the wizarding world has, there wasnt too much info on it

[tacit cloud]

I just don't like economics at all

[humble sequoia]

economics seems interesting but way too vague

[sly inlet]

its very funny how "leading economists" warn people about policy, and its almost always ignored

[zealous meadow]

ok bur Narcissa actually was a big reason why Voldemort was defeated lol even if it wasnt her intention tho

[humble sequoia]

forward guidance baby 🤝

[solar crown]

YES

[uncut goblet]

luna and neville would have never worked, neville wanted to fit in and luna stands out, and luna wanted to see the world and its uniqueness and Neville was more homebody

[near stirrup]

Well their currency is still metal so it's tied with the value of gold, silver, and copper I guess

[sly inlet]

Was wondering more in amounts of how wealthy wizards are and stuff

[hushed holly]

Not saying it doesn't work, just that it tried to give emotional pay off without having put in any of the work to get it.

[sly inlet]

they dont seem to need much money to get by, since they have magic

[near stirrup]

Depends on the family they come from or what career they have

[humble sequoia]

many dabloons

[uncut goblet]

Wizarding money comes in three denominations: bronze Knuts, silver Sickles, and golden Galleons. There are 29 Knuts in one Sickle, and 17 Sickles make up a Galleon.

[near stirrup]

Judging by Harry's inheritance, aurors make bank

[solar crown]

depends if they're good at transfiguration or not

[sly inlet]

thats true i guess

[karmic swan]

According to hp-lexicon. 1 Galleon is $7.60 American.

[sly inlet]

not bad, harry is a millionaire then i guess?

[near stirrup]

Harry inherited a vault full of Galleons and his parents had only been Aurors for like 3 years

[hushed holly]

Unless you're in the states then it's Dragots

[uncut goblet]

harry had his award money, first merlin and all of that, plus his inheritance from his parents, and i am sure he got what was left of the black family money

[karmic swan]

Well 1 Galleon is 5 pounds.

[sly inlet]

i heard it was inherited from some potion maker/businessman in his family or something

[near stirrup]

So either Aurors really pull in dough, the Potter family is rich, or some kind of wizard life insurance policy his parents had

[solar crown]

Yeah but James' parents were rich af

[sly inlet]

as rich as malfoy? or lesser

[hushed holly]

Also his grandfather Fleamont invented Sleakeasies Hair Potion. Which apparently made the Potter family rich, not that it wasn't already.

[near stirrup]

I don't think Harry had as much money as the Malfoy family

[solar crown]

lesser, new money, malfoy are old money

[uncut goblet]

James Potter inherited a large enough fortune to allow himself, Lily, and Harry to live comfortably without him or Lily having to work. The amount of money needed to do that is considerable. I would say the Potter family fortune was equivalent to no less than $3million, but no more than $7million.

But when we consider Harry’s fortune we must consider the amount he inherited from Sirius.

Sirius was the only male heir of the Black family. And as such he had inherited a fortune that had been amassed over generations. Nowhere close to the Malfoy family fortune. But still far more than the Potters. I would estimate the Black family fortune at no less than $25million but no more than $50million.

So when we consider Harry’s fortune when he first entered his vault, with the inheritance from Sirius. I would say that Harry had an extremely large fortune in the tens of millions. But nowhere close to the Malfoys who had hundreds.

[karmic swan]

I mean.. Harry had enough to pay for Weasleys Wizard Wheezes for the twins.

[near stirrup]

The Malfoy family were brewers

[hushed holly]

The family is like 700 years old, it's going to have had a lot of money built up over time.

[sly inlet]

Didnt he just give the triwizard winnings for that, or did he invest extra?

[hushed holly]

the Malfoy's in Britain apparently date from 1066 when they were brought over by William the Conqueror and were given land (and presumably titles) for their help in the invasion.

That's Rowlings lore

[fiery lynx]

Heir of fire

I think I should be able to eat phones

[fiery lynx]

Our vibe is Brazilian folks

[sly inlet]

[near stirrup]

Spicy chicken

[ornate pier]

[empty blaze]

There's a brazilian folklore about a guy who has his feet backwards and protect the woods

[near stirrup]

[fiery lynx]

Its called CURUPIRA

[empty blaze]

Yess, how do u know?

[near stirrup]

I heard about it in a College Humor video actually 😂

[sly inlet]

theres lots of info from the cryptozoologist shows too

[empty blaze]

Omg 😂

But my name here is folklore bc of a taylor swift album actually

[fiery lynx]

Brazilian folklore

[near stirrup]

That's impressive

[fiery lynx]

Choose me please

no i don't lmaoo

[fiery lynx]

I know the answer

[past plank]

What is it

[karmic swan]

I'm sure you're happy that she's your friend, but I think you're making her uncomfortable or something like that.

[fiery lynx]

2+2=22

[near stirrup]

No no, don't try and put out the dumpster fire

[past plank]

Thanks

[empty blaze]

Ohh thanks, but don't worry, he's not lol he's just joking

[smoky bane]

You look 14… that’s sus. I’m callin’ the cops!

[fiery lynx]

You guys are too worried 😂

[empty blaze]

We're both 18 lmaooo

[near stirrup]

This is why "Go to Brazil" is an insult

[empty blaze]

Wdym? It' not lol

[near stirrup]

Oh yes it is

Just google "go to brazil meme" and you'll see

[empty blaze]

I know the meme lol

[near stirrup]

Ah then you know what I'm talking about then

[empty blaze]

I know, but it's not an insult. We say "come to brazil" when we want a celebrity to come here

[near stirrup]

Maybe you don't know the meme then

[fiery lynx]

Keep calm and drink my coffe

[empty blaze]

I do know the meme

[fallen gust]

She doesn’t know the meme

[humble sequoia]

ella no sabe

[fiery lynx]

Didn’t you know that here we drink hot coffee

[past plank]

I know all of the names of the kids in my basem- day care

Day care

[sinful axle]

Sus

[solar crown]

Her profile picture is Taylor Swift dude

[humble sequoia]

bruh

[fiery lynx]

Bye guys

[static finch]

I'm 26 and my pfp is Taylor swift 💀

[static finch]

Omg fellow Swiftie 😭 😭

[near stirrup]

Taylor Swift still makes music?

[static finch]

Yes she recently got another Grammy album of the year 💀

[solar crown]

I'm 26 and I'm a swiftie too, don't worry!

no judgement here

[static finch]

Omg and a hufflepuff too, you win at life

🙏

[thick gazelle]

Another Swiftie here

[smoky bane]

I… was being facetious. Why do I have to explain that?

[humble sequoia]

facetious 💀

[static finch]

😱 ❤️ we're raiding the server lol

Wholesome vibes tho

[empty blaze]

yess, another swiftie!!

[wild niche]

[static finch]

Girl I have the "in the weeds" version of folklore sitting in my room rn and I'm wearing the cardigan 💀

[solar crown]

So was I, you don't have to explain anything if you don't feel the need to my dude

[empty blaze]

Omg yess, i wish i had the cardigannn

[static finch]

It is very soft and warm but a bit too oversized for me, I can't wear it outside

I mean as a style it's too oversized, the size is good

[zealous meadow]

was that phantom teaching a class in the teaser?

[smoky bane]

Seemingly

[zealous meadow]

that is very interesting tbh

[static finch]

It's professor Binns from the books

[solar crown]

Mr. BINN

[zealous meadow]

oooooh wow that makes a lot of sense

[near stirrup]

The most boring Hogwarts professor

[zealous meadow]

Professor Cuthbert[5] Binns was a wizard and History of Magic professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He owned an office in the main castle and Classroom 4F on the first floor to teach in. He taught until a very old age, when he fell asleep in the staff room and died in slumber.[2] Afterwards, he became a ghost who continued to teach, droning on about various Goblin Rebellions and Giant wars to bored, sleeping students.

this is awesome tbh since we never had a ghost professor

[somber linden]

hows everyone doing

[empty blaze]

Ohh, yeah it seemed oversized when i saw it. Unfortunally i don't think they don't ship to brazil

[static finch]

I think he was a teacher when alive and then fell asleep next to their fireplace in the teachers room and the next day he never realized and just woke up and went to teach class

[static finch]

Good, hbu?

[static finch]

Nooo that's super annoying! I got it all the way to Greece.

[fiery lynx]

I’m still calming down

[humble sequoia]

Honestly I’m just excited for peeves

[static finch]

They should definitely have service for Brazil, that's bs

[somber linden]

im good bout to stream tiny tinas

[static finch]

I was expecting peeves to be colorful and not transparent, it felt weird

[somber linden]

you good?

[zealous meadow]

So that makes sense why ppl seems bored when he is talking in that class of History of Magic

I wonder who is the profesor who put the hat on our MC

[static finch]

Ah is it any good?

[fiery lynx]

Yes I think 😂😂

[humble sequoia]

In the trailer he is colorful

[somber linden]

i love it so far

[empty blaze]

Trueee. I think i read somewhere that they are gonna start the service here finally

[static finch]

Isn't it the DADA professor?

[somber linden]

thats good haha

[zealous meadow]

but he was colorful lol

[static finch]

Yes that's what I mean

[humble sequoia]

Ohhh

[static finch]

I'll check it out for sure

[zealous meadow]

idk the woman? She seems like an older lady

[somber linden]

id recommend it! if you wanna come hang i am playing now haha

[static finch]

Hope so!

It's silly that they still haven't she has tons of fans in Latin America in general

[static finch]

I am in online class 😬 but I definitely would

[near stirrup]

She's either the Headmistress or a Professor

[somber linden]

thats fine! get those good grades!

[static finch]

I think someone said the headmaster is the man next to us in that scene and it's an ancestor of the Blacks

[near stirrup]

No one knows

[humble sequoia]

Oh the emo guy

[near stirrup]

The timeline either puts Phineas Black or Eupraxia Mole as the headmaster/mistress

[humble sequoia]

Doubt it

[rocky vault]

yeah no confirmation but there's speculation that headmaster is Phineas Nigellus Black

[static finch]

Ah that's interesting

[near stirrup]

But Phineas black would've been only around 40 at the time so kind of young to be Headmaster

[humble sequoia]

Ur pfp is my friends contact photo I love it

[zealous meadow]

Im talking about this professor https://i.imgur.com/8RrK1Vm.png and who is the other man on the other side.... also out of all the teachers i only recognized the one in the back in the middle from the trailer

[static finch]

Maybe something happened to the old headmaster and no one else was there to replace

[zealous meadow]

Maybe the others are just staffs but those two in the front seems like professors

[near stirrup]

Actually I think that the potions professor is Phineas Black, look at a picture of him and Sirius side by side and try to tell me I'm wrong

[static finch]

Yeah I was expecting the headmaster to look a bit more headmaster-y

[near stirrup]

I'm sticking with Eupraxia Mole as Headmistress during HL

[zealous meadow]

he is also here too but instead of her, he is the one putting the hat to another student or maybe the mc https://cdn.potterish.com/wp-content/2020/09/harry-potter-hogwarts-legacy-chapeu-seletor-1024x576.png

we dont know anything about those professors yet

[static finch]

But what doesn't make sense is that the headmistress would be putting the hat on students since that used to be McGonagall's role

[near stirrup]

If I'm right I expect some form of payment

[humble sequoia]

Honestly have no idea what any of you guys are talking about, im just excited for the game to release

[static finch]

😂

I can't be waiting 8 months

[zealous meadow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Jbyj1K4rRI this vid shows some of the professors from the trailer

[wild niche]

Hmm

[zealous meadow]

ikr this game looks AMAZING!!!!

[humble sequoia]

I can't wait either but it's worth the wait

[zealous meadow]

The game is so vivid like you can actually see that its howards, at least based on the gameplay

you can see the students and staffs interacting in the back or walking

[near wharf]

It’s 100 years ago, could just be different practices.

[near stirrup]

I just wanna talk to the herbology professor

[static finch]

I just wanna go to class and be a good student

[zealous meadow]

the duel professor seems cool, Imma be friend with Her when i attend to her class or i see her in the hallways

[near stirrup]

Herbology professor kinda cute

[zealous meadow]

she is!!! and she seems very young

like in her 20s

or early 30s

[static finch]

She seems kinda strict

[fallen gust]

Gonna pull a bully and make out with her

[tough delta]

The dada professor I bet is the head if Ravenclaw

[dusty portal]

She seems so quirky, I love it

[zealous meadow]

I wonder who will be the broom teacher

[static finch]

Idk if you can have romance

[zealous meadow]

we maybe can talk to them

[tough delta]

Hope so

[humble sequoia]

with you

[fallen gust]

Teacher-student relations😎

[static finch]

I think she is shown in the first minutes of the film where she flies in the picture in equipment

[zealous meadow]

who is the dada professor?

[near stirrup]

I'm 100% sticking with the potions professor being Phineas Black

[zealous meadow]

that duel lady? oop

[static finch]

In the dueling scene

[fallen gust]

Gonna have the craziest affair of the century

[zealous meadow]

ooooh so that isnt the same lady from the beginning

[rocky vault]

without a deep dive most info i got is that Eupraxia Mole was headmistress in the 1870's, and Phineas Nigellus Black was headmaster while Dumbledore attended as a student. Dumbledore would have started 2 years after our character begins their time at Hogwarts. So both possible, i think Phineas is a bit closer but that doesn't mean anything concrete. Could also be a headmaster or headmasters in between

[near wharf]

It’s a main part of Hogwarts Mystery so hopefully dating is also in this one.

[static finch]

Yeah

[zealous meadow]

I think the other lady probably teach divination

[tough delta]

The professor in blue seen in dueling scene between avatar and Slytherin companion

[zealous meadow]

oooooooh the old man got it

[solar crown]

That potion professor though

[near wharf]

The common rooms are also similar to Hogwarts Mystery.

[zealous meadow]

I want to get to know all the professors lol

[tough delta]

No the old woman. The old man is charma

[humble sequoia]

The combat looks really satisfying

[static finch]

If it's not lupin I'm not interested 🥲

[zealous meadow]

so who you talking about? The other old man with brown skin?

[tough delta]

No one moment see if I can find a pic @zealous meadow

[solar crown]

gimme lupin everyday, the potion professor gives me Sirius vibe though which I'm not against 🙃

[static finch]

Omg I can't wait for divination class

[zealous meadow]

ok thank you

[humble sequoia]

i thought you were down bad for the potions dude 💀

I might of missed on some details, but do any of you know who the headmaster is in the game?

[near stirrup]

There's no confirmation that Phineas Black was headmaster while Dumbledore was at Hogwarts

[near wharf]

They didn’t say.

[zealous meadow]

https://i.imgur.com/8RrK1Vm.png those two professors in the front, lets guess the classes they teach

[humble sequoia]

Damn

[solar crown]

I'm lonely, covid killed my social life, what can I say

[humble sequoia]

I Hope he favors slytherin for a change

[humble sequoia]

😭 i come to escape reality not wallow in it

[near stirrup]

If the one of the left isn't Headmaster, I'd say transfiguration, if the one of the right isn't Headmistress I'm guessing Divination

[solar crown]

sORRY

[static finch]

Bro same life has been so different ever since

[rocky vault]

i thought i saw a pretty plain line on the wiki about that but all i see on a double-check is speculation yeah

[zealous meadow]

he teaches history of magic and she teaches care of magical creatures

[static finch]

How u know

[zealous meadow]

he can be headmaster

[near stirrup]

Professor Dinn teaches History of Magic

[zealous meadow]

im guessing lol

[near stirrup]

We already have that one confirmed

[zealous meadow]

oh then he teaches transfigurations

[solar crown]

I've never thirst over older fictional guys that much before, give me some stability dammit

[near stirrup]

The one on the right could also teach Muggle Studies if that was around then

[zealous meadow]

like who?

[static finch]

Ah I have definitely thirsted way more when I was younger but I feel you girl😂

[solar crown]

I'm sorry if I am offending anyone, I have no filter, I'm running on little sleeps

[static finch]

Binns

[near stirrup]

Yeah that

[humble sequoia]

I've never thirst over older fictional guys that much before

[static finch]

Shame on you

[zealous meadow]

yeah but our character is in fifth year so they probably wont have to take those classes BUT we know that same teachers teach different classes in other years so that could be true

[near stirrup]

His class is too boring to remember his name

[solar crown]

gary oldman's sirius black, Remus Lupin, Tony stark, Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes, all the men in Bridgerton (sIMON ) ...

[near stirrup]

I don't care about the history of magic, just its application

[solar crown]

Shall I go on?

[humble sequoia]

nonononono
STOP

[zealous meadow]

I find that unknown teacher from the sorting hat kinda hot 👀

[humble sequoia]

YOU TOO

[static finch]

I am very loyal I only simp for lupin

Husbando

[solar crown]

went back and check it, added him to my list, thank you ❤️

[tough delta]

@zealous meadow I can't find a picture of her but if you watch the 14 min video on Hogwarts Legacy that came out recently she is the professor in blue seen in the DADA classroom during dueling lesson.

[near stirrup]

Look at the potions professor from the SoP as well

[solar crown]

no no, the professor behind her

[humble sequoia]

....

[solar crown]

Oh I have, he started this whole conversation in fact

[zealous meadow]

Potions professor seems like a loner

[solar crown]

hOW DARE YOU

[near stirrup]

He looks just like Sirius, I'm telling you that's Phineas man

[zealous meadow]

He seems cool but very strange

[solar crown]

i KNOW

[zealous meadow]

I dont fully trust the one in blue

[static finch]

Both him and the other guy look like Sirius

[zealous meadow]

I may double check

[solar crown]

no the other guy is probz Lyall Lupin aka Wolf Wolf Senior

I said it, so it must be true

[near stirrup]

Watch the Headmaster not be Phineas or Eupraxia and they introduce a new character in the timeline

[humble sequoia]

fair enough

[static finch]

Isn't that too far back?

[solar crown]

shhuuush

[zealous meadow]

I think we cant trust everybody in the game

[static finch]

Unless we hufflepuffs

[zealous meadow]

I dont wanna be paranoid but i will try to not trust fully

[static finch]

I will trust the handsome ones

[zealous meadow]

those are the worst lol

[karmic swan]

Aww, thanks for trusting me.

[static finch]

Just like irl

[solar crown]

Have I scared everyone away with my "Thirst over older guys" conversation

[zealous meadow]

I simp for that Slytherin companion of the students confirmed

[static finch]

No I relate

But we might wake up tomorrow banned lmao (jk)

You can't do caps it's considered spam

[zealous meadow]

not really lol

[karmic swan]

[zealous meadow]

im 16 tho but its like a normal conversation lol

[karmic swan]

I'm 31, technically I should be ignoring this conversation.

[humble sequoia]

worse ways to go out

[zealous meadow]

😂

[solar crown]

little baby

[humble sequoia]

im still waiting for your ancient wisdom

[zealous meadow]

ok what houses are we picking?

[static finch]

Ravenclaw

[karmic swan]

Man who live in glass house, should use toilet in basement.

There's your ancient wisdom.

[static finch]

And maybe a second run

[zealous meadow]

Ravenclaw just to have a main character from there lol And Also I can create my Roger Davies ancestor narrative

[solar crown]

Just because of the common room, Gryffindor

[zealous meadow]

the game seems to invested for a second run but if you finished main story why no

[zealous meadow]

I dont really like Gryffindor common room lol its lame in comparison, Slytherin is dope

[humble sequoia]

clearly you too wise for me cuz this some dumbas-

[zealous meadow]

Ravenclaw common room is gorgeous

[old onyx]

yea

[zealous meadow]

Hufflepuff is interesting with all that vegetation

[static finch]

Best common room is hufflepuff for me

Slytherin looks cold like I'd get pneumomia

Second best gryffindor

[solar crown]

I like Hufflepuff but it's not causy enough, I want it to feel like a Warm hug

[dusty portal]

Are you kidding all the common rooms look amazing

[zealous meadow]

and a lot of snakes lol

[karmic swan]

Stone will absorb all of that warmth.

[static finch]

It still looks cold and I wanna walk around the common room in my socks and pjs

[potent heart]

Thank you and yes but I think the most stunning room is ravenclaw

[static finch]

Obviously

[zealous meadow]

Gryffindor looks hot af lol

[dusty portal]

I mean.. Slytherin does look a tad chilly

[static finch]

For me it's the coziest

[humble sequoia]

you don't say!

[dusty portal]

Yeah, Gryffindor's looks regal as heck

[karmic swan]

Meanwhile, I'm over here like.. If a Famous person has a painting, and is also a ghost. Do they converse with themselves?

[humble sequoia]

Hufflepuff looks cozy

[zealous meadow]

Gryffindor looks like is so hot, like hot temperature... maybe its the warm colors

[dusty portal]

And Hufflepuff's like a cool ass Hobbit house

[potent heart]

Facts

[humble sequoia]

they don't get a ghost they get a painting

[zealous meadow]

Hufflepuff looks chill

[karmic swan]

It's not like they're "given" a ghost form..

[zealous meadow]

and Ravenclaw looks like a place you would be to spend hours there

[static finch]

Yeah

[zealous meadow]

watching at the constellation, etc

[static finch]

And I hope we can look out the window I bet there's a great view

[humble sequoia]

the ministry sells ghost status

[dusty portal]

yASSSS

[humble sequoia]

thats why i got a white name i paid the big bucks to be a specter

[dusty portal]

Reading books and looking at the stars

[near stirrup]

Ravenclaw common room is just a library outside of the library

[zealous meadow]

can ppl have more than one houses?

[dusty portal]

But u get a hell of a view

[static finch]

Dream house

[humble sequoia]

dream?

[sinful axle]

And Astronomy tower

[zealous meadow]

omg

i just found out who teaches students about brooms and flying abilities lol

[humble sequoia]

elphaba

[zealous meadow]

its the woman in the back to the left https://i.imgur.com/8RrK1Vm.png

she is shown flying in the trailers too same outfit

[static finch]

Yeah

[zealous meadow]

the other black lady seems like divination, we gonna have divination classes

[humble sequoia]

STOP 💀

[static finch]

Caps aren't allowed

[dusty portal]

OMG I hope so

[zealous meadow]

the black lady in the back right looks like Divination to me

[zealous meadow]

its fifth year for sure

[solar crown]

Disappointing

[near stirrup]

It's going to be a great experience climbing the stairs to Ravenclaw Tower for the first time

Seeing if I have to answer some kind of riddle to get in

[dusty portal]

Don't hype me up more omg

Imagine all the firsts we're gonna get.... I'm gonna explore every centimeter it's gonna take me forever to do the first playthrough

[static finch]

Omg I can't wait 🥳 🥳 🥳

[gloomy vale]

no word yet on the release date of the game?

[static finch]

November December probably

[dusty portal]

I wonder how the riddles will work, and if there will be a series of questions that just continually cycle?

[tough delta]

Yes!

[humble sequoia]

i read firsts as fists and uh

oops

[near stirrup]

I hope they have a big riddle bank to pull from so there's no repeats

[dusty portal]

That's a first. Lol

jk xD

[static finch]

Ok

[dusty portal]

They probably will. Like 500 xD

[humble sequoia]

is 9 next

[dusty portal]

Maybe if we don't know the answer, we'll be able to find Helena Ravenclaw (Ravenclaw ghost) and she'll give us the answer. T'would be cool if they did that.

[near stirrup]

Helena stays in Ravenclaw tower though

[zealous meadow]

in the game i will probably spend some time in the library, in that trailer it looks like a chill place

[humble sequoia]

thats where we live year 6 it got leaked

[dusty portal]

Oh like inside? Or around?

[static finch]

For us the dumb ravenclaws that got in by mistake lol

[near stirrup]

She stays inside the tower

[dusty portal]

Yeah but inside the common room? I would think that sometimes, she would wander outside of the Ravenclaw common room

[near stirrup]

You know what does lead me to thinking that the woman that puts the sorting hat on us in the SoP is the Headmistress is the fact that she takes us to the room of requirement, what kind of normal professor other than Professor Fig would show that to us?

[static finch]

I don't want her inside

[humble sequoia]

loremaster swoop in with the knowledge 🧠

[near stirrup]

Ravenclaw tower has balconies and other parts too it outside of the common room

[dusty portal]

Yes I know that. What I've been saying from the beginning is that: If we don't know the answer to a riddle (to get inside Ravenclaw tower), we may be able to go find Helena, who is somewhere in the tower, and ask her.

[static finch]

I think all the professors know about it

[near stirrup]

I'm sure they know, but would they really just be taking students there?

[zealous meadow]

the names of some professors were leaked i think

Cassandra, Helen and Emeldo Reyes

[humble sequoia]

cant u just call helena

[static finch]

No but you because you need to catch up with the others

[dusty portal]

I mean, they might have purposefully left out the Headmistress/master so that they can reveal it later. You never know

[zealous meadow]

The actress, Julia Farino, is credited on IMDb for voicing the characters 'Cassandra Mason' and 'Helen Thistlewood'.

[near stirrup]

Helen Thistlewood is the Herbology professor

[zealous meadow]

how do we know

[near stirrup]

Read the name 😂

Herbology professors having some kind of nature aspect to their name seems like a recurring theme

[zealous meadow]

Maybe no lol

[dusty portal]

I mean, yeah.. But also, you can't rly confirm

I do love Thistlewood tho, it sounds iconic

[near stirrup]

Surely she's the Herbology professor with that name, I'm already convinced

[dusty portal]

Haha fair enough xD

[solar crown]

I mean JKR is known for giving random professors on the nose names

[zealous meadow]

Mason is a family named in the book i remember

[solar crown]

Aurora Sinistra for astronomy

[sick beacon]

Anyone else rewatching the movies/re reading the books?

[solar crown]

Septima Vector for Arithmancy

and Sprouts

[hushed holly]

Otherwise known as the adult fan's crush.

[solar crown]

Is she?

[sick beacon]

Don’t know how else to spend my time waiting for this game

[near stirrup]

I'm guessing Professor Fig teaches Ancient Runes though, it kind of aligns with the main story of "ancient magic"

[static finch]

I'm listening to the Stephen fry audio books I'm on poa rn

[hushed holly]

If you've not seen a picture of the woman they got to play her in the first two films, then you wouldn't know but stunning is an apt descriptor.

[dusty portal]

I relate so hard my friend. That's why I'm here, speculating about god knows what that could be in this game

[sick beacon]

I’m rewatching the movies and I’m on hbp

[static finch]

I play other games lol

[sick beacon]

Same bro I’m just so hyped for the game. Hope it turns out great

[hushed holly]

Read more HP fan fiction obviously.

[near stirrup]

I just read an article title that was my first thought when watching the SoP, "Hogwarts Legacy looks like Bully, but for Harry Potter fans" 😂

[static finch]

I watched them multiple times already lol

[dusty portal]

I will definitely jump into a game once I'm done school. For now, I'll settle for procrastinating in between getting assignments done and practicing xD

[sick beacon]

I’m playing elden ring atm. An absolutely amazing game.

[solar crown]

I googled her, and she is indeed beautiful

[hushed holly]

Yeah, major shame she's only ever in the background.

[static finch]

Everyone's been talking about it! Idk why it doesn't seem super appealing to me... Like the story and combat and enemies don't really seem appealing. I'm playing ffxiv

[near stirrup]

Shame they switched out who played her too

[sick beacon]

Speaking of combat I’m excited to see what hogwarts legacy’s is like myself. I hope it’s not super easy.

[hushed holly]

Did they? I can't remember Professor Sinistra appearing after the first couple of films.

[static finch]

Same!!

[static finch]

She changed race lol

[solar crown]

at least JKR didn't kill her like did to Sirius and Remus

[near stirrup]

She was in the Lego game though which was cool

[near stirrup]

They re-casted her as white in Goblet of Fire

[sick beacon]

They should do a Lego remake of Harry Potter like they’re doing with Star Wars.

[hushed holly]

Is all I could find about her casting. And she was definitely black in that film and later the games.

It apparently according to the wiki is the only film she's in.

[static finch]

Why?

[dusty portal]

Sorry Anna wrong reply

[static finch]

Lol

[dusty portal]

I meant "Damn" to what was just said

[static finch]

I don't think she ever even talked in the books

[hushed holly]

Nope, but at least she is mentioned in the 2nd, 4th, and 5th books, and maybe the 7th as a "She was at hogwarts when everything went down."

Man, why couldn't Harry have taken the actually interesting subjects of runes and arithmancy as well, I'd love to know more about Professors Babbling and Vector

it'd make the story I'm writing so much easier then just knowing that Vector is meant to be stricter than McGonagall.

[torn wraith]

hello

[near stirrup]

Bruh Arithmancy seems like it would've been insanely boring

[hushed holly]

divination through numbers

it could be worse and as someone who enjoys maths, the fact that arithmancy is easy maths is kind of nice

[near stirrup]

Charms or Ancient Runes would probably be my favorite subjects

Potions would be up there as well

[woeful heron]

but i think putting math into a game is kind of tricky, sure we love challenges but I don't think math games are everyone's cup of tea

[hushed holly]

it's just about converting words to numbers then pairing down numbers until they are in the 1-9 range and then matching the number value of that word to either a meaning, or dates or the amount of times you should do something

[karmic swan]

Someone said numbers. My head hurts now.

[hushed holly]

https://www.sorcererscompanion.net/arithmancy.html

If this link works and doesn't get deleted then this explains it decently.

the actual maths involved is relatively easy

[woeful heron]

ohh if turning alphabets into number, i remembered when i was in a highschool we used that to make a code name for our crush lol

[hushed holly]

and basically just means that say if your name boils down to the number 8 then if you cast spells which also have a number value of 8 on a date that relates to the number 8, then potentially the spells should work better

if I've understood everything correctly

[solar crown]

Potions is just next level cooking

[static finch]

Same and DADA and Care of Magical Creatures for me

[hushed holly]

but mostly it's about making choices on days matching your names number value

[hushed holly]

true dat

[karmic swan]

Favourite classes??

Charms and Potions.

[solar crown]

with deadlier consequences of course

ok crazy thought bUT, can we all agree that if Hogwarts really existed, you can be assure that Gen Z muggleborn would do everything in their powers to get their Starbucks Ubered at Hogwarts

[visual geyser]

Quidditch & Quidditch

[near stirrup]

I feel like the most comedic moments would be in the Muggle Studies class though

[static finch]

I freaking love my Starbucks lol even tho I don't have it often

[solar crown]

i joined the tiny tinas wonderlands discord and asked a question and got met with a bunch of dicks

[static finch]

Why

[near stirrup]

I can just picture it now, you sit down in your first day of muggle studies when your professor just whips out a Glock and pops off a round

[karmic swan]

Meanwhile. We don't have Starbucks here. And they'd only spell my name wrong anyway.

[hushed holly]

basically everything minus potions (I love to cook but I'm useless at getting my timings to match what the recipe says), and divination cos it's fairly naff.

[static finch]

Where are you

[karmic swan]

Tasmania, Australia.

[static finch]

Ahhhh how come they dont? I have family there btw, damn

[hushed holly]

Can you just imagine a load of Gen Z kids T-posing infront of the purebloods just to annoy them.

[karmic swan]

Not popular enough here.

[static finch]

I see

[near stirrup]

As an American, I keep my wand in a holster on my hip

[hushed holly]

Ah but you have local cafes right? They are much better.

[solar crown]

They would petition to instaure Tacos Tuesdays, I reckon, baffling the house elves

[near stirrup]

Did Wild West wizards have quickdraw spell duels?

[static finch]

I prefer local cafes for the atmosphere but the drinks are way quirkier in starbucks

[hushed holly]

The memes people, the memes.

[dusty portal]

Herbology and Transfiguration for me!! 🌿

[hushed holly]

A holster on the arm or hip, not bothered as long as it can take a 14 1/2 inch long stick. lol.

[near stirrup]

"This town ain't big enough for two wizards" draws wand BOMBARDA

[dusty portal]

Every time I hear Bombarda it's always in Emma Watson's voice, breaking Sirius out of his prison.

[hushed holly]

👍

[near stirrup]

I think of Umbridge using Bombarda Maxima to blow into the room of requirement

[hushed holly]

currently for me the main example is a fan fic where Fleur and Harry used to lethal effect at point blank range to someone's spine

[near stirrup]

wtf

[hushed holly]

That was probably the most brutal FlowerPot fic I'd read just due to the fact it decided to go "It's a war, people die horribly"

all the trauma

An odd reaction there Anna but okie dokie

[static finch]

Lmao

I'm laughing because it's so absurd

[wild niche]

[hushed holly]

I mean if it works it works right

[static finch]

Also the name flowerpot lol

[hushed holly]

It's one of the nicer ship names

[karmic swan]

Casts Engorgio on everything

Now it is.

[hushed holly]

Fleur/Harry = FlowerPot

[near stirrup]

Honestly, the killing curse is kinda lame for killing people 😂 there are much cooler spells for that

[hushed holly]

does everything include the two duelling wizards?

cos then you're back to the original problem

[hushed holly]

I think one of my more evil ways is to continuously hit someone with overpowered cheering charms so that they don't question that walking off a cliff is going to make them go splat.

[solar crown]

There's a spell that makes the other person's wand eject rubber ducks every time they cast a spell

that's the best kind of spell if you wanna know

[static finch]

Arthur would love that

[solar crown]

Ducklifors its called

oh no i am mistaken

[static finch]

I can't think of the coolest killing spell because I don't like thinking about killing people

💀

[solar crown]

Anaticula!

[static finch]

I do like my people alive

[solar crown]

makes the victims wand to produce ducks whenever a spell Is cast

[hushed holly]

Just think instead of a normal spell and how it could be misused

[static finch]

Goodnight everyone :D online class is over

[hushed holly]

Have a good night

or morning, I just realised it's 5am for me

[static finch]

It's 7 am for me lol

[lofty blade]

same

[old onyx]

it's 9 am for me xD

[static finch]

Where u at

[hushed holly]

nocturnal bros, otherwise known as the best people

Being awake during the day is just strange

[low galleon]

It’s 3pm for me

[old onyx]

I had a nice routine until it got ruined

[low galleon]

I had a nice family, till it was ruined, wife took the kids lmao

[hushed holly]

routines, what are those, my ADHD knows no such things

[zealous meadow]

Omg this professor from the sorting hat is here too https://i.imgur.com/TMsSVsx.png

[solar crown]

I just don't sleep 🙂

[near stirrup]

Little known fact, apparating within Hogwarts wasn't banned until the 1920s, so we might be able to apparate around the school 😂

[low galleon]

We wouldn’t be able to apparate at all

You need to be a 7th year to be able to apparate

[near stirrup]

Well you don't "need" to be 7th year to apparate

That's just when you're taught how to

[amber mango]

yoooo

[low galleon]

You are eligible to get an Apparation license in the 7th year, apparating without a license is against the law

You play the game as a 5th year, so I really really doubt you’d apparate in the game.

[near stirrup]

Just apparate illegally nerd

[amber mango]

Let's rock! 🔥🔥🔥 Haye yaaa!

[low galleon]

No need, if you look in the trailer there are floo powder areas all over the map, that is what we will use for fast travel, other than brooms and such.

[golden peak]

you just need to be 17 I think

[low galleon]

We aren’t 17 in the game so apparating would be highly illegal

[near stirrup]

Well you first need to go to a floo powder station to teleport to another, I'd prefer to just teleport on demand 😂

[low galleon]

This is why they added Floo powder

[amber mango]

Didn't it say we choose our own path ? who cares if it's illegal

[near stirrup]

Laws wouldn't stop me, I ain't afraid of no Trace

[low galleon]

I can tell you right now, there’s no need to apparate in this game

[amber mango]

That's my guy 🔥

[amber mango]

Dante let's dance up & down 😂😂

[low galleon]

I’m getting a bit frustrated

[near stirrup]

Just don't get frustrated?

[low galleon]

There’s a 99.9 percent chance there will be no apparating.

[rocky salmon]

🗿

[golden peak]

just chilllaxx, game isn’t out yet let’s have fun guessing what may or may not be in it

[amber mango]

ok ok, have some water (fire extinguisher ready if things get heated)

[near stirrup]

In the trailer we use some sort of smoke-form quickstep, that's not too far off from Voldemort's broomless flight

[golden peak]

it’d be cool to take an evil route and drop out of school 😎

[low galleon]

I just want to get magical beasts and nurture them until they are juicy and tender enough to eat.

[amber mango]

exploring hogwarts is probably the first thing on my list

[golden peak]

that sounds like a…pleasant experience for the creatures 🙂

[near stirrup]

I just wanna apparate

[golden peak]

Sameeee

[low galleon]

No chance

[near stirrup]

You never know

[low galleon]

Same bro, same

[empty shadow]

You have to be 16/17 to learn apparation and 17 to take the test you also can’t apparate anywhere in hogwarts

[low galleon]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING

[brazen pebble]

No ChAnCe

[near stirrup]

It wasn't banned until 1920 in Hogwarts

"I already know what's going to be in the game, if you disagree I'll get mad"

[brazen pebble]

Evil wizards don't care about laws or rules. So age wouldn't matter. You'd be terrible dark wizards

[amber mango]

nurturing beasts yesss 😎

[rocky vault]

it's been pointed out in videos alot but the reveal had little green flames on plaque's all over the place- Wildsmith written on the plaques. Wildsmith = creator of Floo Network i think? So might be little Floo Flames for fast travel!

[amber mango]

😂😂

[golden peak]

No use getting worked up about apparation, don’t wanna splinch yourselves

[empty shadow]

I pointed that out to people a couple days ago

[near stirrup]

That's the consensus, it's just wishful thinking on my part to be able to apparate

Gotta say though, if apparating is in the game, some of y'all finna look really dumb

[rocky vault]

ye i know i'm not the first to notice or make the connection - just think it's a neat way to go about fast travel imo

[golden peak]

best way to travel would be broom or hippogryph so you can see everything imo

[amber mango]

hell I'll have myself and buddies put in fireworks in Hogwarts 😂😂😂

[rocky vault]

i can see them using side-along apparition if needed for a story moment, and maybe even apparition being a "post-story" feature? but imo if you want proper exploration of an open world there should be limitations on teleporting

[golden peak]

I want to see the swamp they made in one of the corridors lol

[empty shadow]

We’re not dumb for thinking that something that they’ve pointed out multiple times in the books can’t be done till 17 and not in hogwarts can’t be done if our character is 15 if our character gets to year 7 then they might let us

[amber mango]

still no confirmation on year 7 or 6 for that matter

[near stirrup]

It's not that you can't per se, it's that you haven't been taught how to and aren't legally allowed to

[low galleon]

And eating them.

[near stirrup]

There's nothing stopping an underage wizard from learning how to and doing it regardless of laws in place

Just because there are laws doesn't mean that people won't break them

[amber mango]

i'll be chilling & shizz

[low galleon]

Azkaban, Expulsion, No more wand

[amber mango]

They have food delivery in Hogwarts ? 😂

[rocky vault]

though one could assume the reason they had such prolonged and chaperoned lessons to learn how to apparite - and many of them still splinched themselves - idk if it'd be the best idea to attempt it :P

[golden peak]

^^animagus haha the marauders

they did that illegally

[near stirrup]

They'd have to catch me first, expulsion isn't a huge concern imo honestly

[gentle surge]

Is the game release already ?

[brazen pebble]

Legally they couldn't but if you said to heck with the rules and went bad. You could learn it on your own. Everyone wants what they want. Nothing wrong with that. Im not saying it will be either. But id love to be able to. Plus you're not considering this ancient magic were connected to might let us do it. Probably not. But who knows?

[low galleon]

It sure didn’t do good to Hagrid.

[rocky vault]

first they'll catch your leg - then they'll find the rest of ya hobblin' around somewhere ;P

[low galleon]

Hell no bruh, we’ve got months to wait

[golden peak]

just don’t get caught 😎

[near stirrup]

Hagrid was a 3rd rate wizard already, he could barely read

[golden peak]

Not yet, holiday 2022

[amber mango]

I say we have butterbeer and party 😎

[gentle surge]

nuhhh

[rocky vault]

pass me the firewhiskey

[near stirrup]

Just get good so you don't get splinched 😂

[amber mango]

Here you gooo 💃🏻🔥

[rocky vault]

but how to get good without proper teachings?! s'why we have the school...and we're 5 years behind already lol

[low galleon]

Yuhh

[near stirrup]

Read a book or something?

[gentle surge]

cant wait

[amber mango]

how about tomorrow ? 😂 Ok I'm jk

[golden peak]

Sirius and the others taught themselves how to turn into animals, I think one could learn how to apparate without teachings

[empty shadow]

I’m not saying they can’t break the rules and risk splinching themselves I’m just saying that it’s logical to think that the game will only let us if we get to later years based on what rules we know and how dangerous we know it is plus I feel like they would want to make fast travel not easy for us I feel like the green fires that say wildsmith on them will be the fast travel floo network and that we have to find and activate them to fast travel to that location

[brazen pebble]

I'm sure the Marauders Map was "Legal" too

[amber mango]

ooooh, wait we get to be werewolf ?

[gentle surge]

next holiday is the 30

[amber mango]

😂

[proper swallow]

This ravenclaw and slytherin debating is so funny; i need popcorn :x

[rocky vault]

with that logic hermione wouldn't have ever slipped up once ;P

[low galleon]

My mother and father don’t need to buy me anything for Christmas, I’ll just buy myself Hogwarts legacy, that’s all I need in my life

[brazen pebble]

🍿

[golden peak]

marauders map was imprisoned in Filchs drawer for being oh so legal

[proper swallow]

tysm 😃

[brazen pebble]

Indeed but they made it is the point

[amber mango]

awwwwn if it isn't cute Hufflepuff 😊😊

[low galleon]

Simp

[proper swallow]

😂 💀

[near stirrup]

Honestly, the Trace seems like a story made up to scare Hogwarts students

[golden peak]

but it is real 😳

[grim glade]

Hey guys! Anyone else can't sleep?

[amber mango]

😂 nah I'm chill .. hope people don't take it too seriously

[golden peak]

Yuppers

[near stirrup]

Voldemort was 16 when he first used the killing curse and the ministry didn't know

[brazen pebble]

Isn't it real? Isn't that how Bellatrix knew Hermione hit a harry with a stinging jinx?

[near stirrup]

That was using Priori Incantatem

[grim glade]

No sleep team!

[empty shadow]

Well they knew magic was being done around Harry when dobby did it and when Harry cast his patronus the big problem with the trace is that it doesn’t detect who did it just the radius so kids in wizard families could easily get away with using it because it wouldn’t detect that it wasn’t their parents instead of them

[brazen pebble]

Isnt that when 2 wands connect like Harry and Voldy?? 2 wands have to connect. Pretty sure they didn't do that in Malfoy Manor

[amber mango]

wonder if we get to use time turner

[brazen pebble]

Takes 2 wands that share the same core.

[near stirrup]

Hermoine admitted to doing magic before arriving at Hogwarts first year though and the ministry didn't contact her for it

[empty shadow]

Prior incantantem can be done by casting a spell on a wand or done automatically if the wands share cores

[proper swallow]

If anything, I'm happy you guys think we all would be as good witches and wizards to be able to do all of what these people did underage with advanced magic lol

[empty shadow]

You don’t get in trouble for using magic before starting hogwarts

[golden peak]

there were some inconsistencies, which could just be due to an over look by JK Rowling, and not a conspiracy that the trace is just a story to scare children

[near stirrup]

The only times we see the Trace being used to punish a wizard is towards Harry, now hear me out on this one: Mrs. Figg was keeping tabs on Harry for the Ministry and that's why they knew he used magic at home

[golden peak]

guess we will never know 🤷🏽‍♀️

[empty shadow]

The ministry was unaware that a squib lived near Harry

[golden peak]

I think a lot of kids use magic before attending school and it’s not used against them by the ministry cause they don’t have wands and can’t control it maybe?

[light hull]

How do you put that house symbol in your name?

[near stirrup]

Prior Incantato is a spell that shows the last spell a wand performed

[golden peak]

pick a role in #🏰choose-your-house

[brazen pebble]

I know

[empty shadow]

You don’t get in trouble for it if you haven’t joined hogwarts yet

[golden peak]

Yeah, that’s what I figured

[amber mango]

speaking of which what were dementors doing close to Harry's home ?

[empty shadow]

Umbridge sent them she was trying to get Harry expelled

[golden peak]

||Umbridge sent them||

[near stirrup]

So if the Trace IS real, it's possibly applied on the train to Hogwarts

[amber mango]

oh cool

[icy igloo]

Hanging out

Vacation from Azkaban

[amber mango]

yea you want chicken nuggets ? 😂

[near stirrup]

That's the conspiracy I'm bringing up though, Mrs. Figg was able to see the Dementors as well as Harry's patronus. She's only pretending to be a Squib, and actually works for the Ministry is what I posit

[icy igloo]

They love sexually harassing humans tho. And eventually killing them

[golden peak]

ministry of magic do be slackin

[amber mango]

oh & haha (weakly).. I'll try to avoid them

[icy igloo]

It's bad if the first kiss you will ever get is from a dementor

[empty shadow]

If there was a traitor to the order of the phoenix like that jk Rowling would have made it a big reveal

[golden peak]

your first and last kiss lmao

[icy igloo]

Umbridge was cool

hehe.

[near stirrup]

There's a lot JKR didn't actually reveal honestly

[brazen pebble]

No. Not in any way shape or form

[golden peak]

That’s a first

[amber mango]

Facts

[icy igloo]

I respect your opinion

What's so wrong about Umbridge

[golden peak]

how about you tell us what you like about her

[amber mango]

give the man some butterbeer 😂
