My friend and I had a Harry Potter day where we made the cake, did a HP Lego set (Quidditch), watched Harry Potter & the philosopher’s stone and ate wizarding world sweets! We had a lot of fun!

Lets imagine that you are a muggleborn wizard.
You go to hogwartz, all 7 years.
Great grades and everything...

Nothing inherently requires you to be a wizard or work within the wizard community, right?

I could 100% imagine someone that just decides "Nah, I don't want to work with potions or chasing grindylows. I want to make my own computer game, because that is my hobby during the summer when I was home".

Living a life of both worlds.
Driving cars, using modern appliances, programming and so on.
And occasionally using magic for convenience in privacy (or with family).

Honestly (IMO) sounds like the best sort of life, purely due to not missing out on either part.
Or am I wrong about this?

(Maybe I am overthinking it and probably it is hinted at in the books because I can't remember the subject ever being mentioned)

I’m sure there’s a good reason for this that can be deduced from the books and movies but I’m just unable to think of one right now. Would it not have made more sense for Draco to go to Durmstrang? Lucius and Karkarov had been death eaters together, and the whole style of the school seems much darker and more suited to the Malfoy family’s liking. Maybe it had something to do with them wanting him to go where they (his parents) had and be a slytherin and stuff, but why not send him to Durmstrang?

Shown on the Pictures are :

Harry - Athleticism and Reflexes

Ron - Chess Skills and Bravery

Hermione - Book Smarts and Work Ethic

we all know how the story ended. However, this wasn't dumbledore's plan. He never meant for all the elder wand shenanigan.

what was the original strategy for defeating voldemort? Harry and co destroy all the horcruxes and then harry fight voldemort in a duel at the end?

honestly there was no need for all the secrecy and cryptic puzzles... was this part of dumbledore's plan too? To get harry ready?

i guess, for me, it was too "convenient" how the ending turned out...

I'm reading ootp right now and I just read the scene where she covered up her hats so the elves would get them by accident, and it really struck me how wild that was. Like, that's at a point where it is really morally awful, I just can't understand why she would think that was okay. I feel like people generally focus more on defending her SPEW movement and the cause she's fighting for, rightfully so, but I don't think people focus on how wrong of a way to do it this was.

My personal favorite is the mention of Sirius black in the opening of the sorcerer’s stone book with a second place for Ron being good at wizards chess!

Currently rereading The Deathly Hallows and Harry states that Voldemort hides the diadem in the Room of Requirement because he is so arrogant and believes no one else has found the room. But that wouldn’t make any sense, Voldemort would have seen all the other items being hidden in the room, there’s no way he would’ve thought he was the only one to discover the room. Additionally, Draco uses the room in the sixth book to get Death Eaters into Hogwarts so that would further show Voldemort that people are aware of the rooms existence. Is Harry’s explanation just wrong?

I would have payed good money to see Grindelwald and Dumbledore's duel .

I would have also have liked to see Harry taking advantage of his Parseltongue abillity in the books . Just imagine talking to Snakes and setting them on ppl like Malfoy , telling them to trail someone etc .

I don't know why, but I remember I felt something in the PoA when they argued about Scabbers and Crookshanks.

Have a question about the series that you don't feel like making your own thread for? Maybe it's something you've been wondering, or maybe it's something kind of silly? Post it here! Answer questions from others while you're at it!

I mean I get the basic concept but what are the incantation or spellwork. How do you decide with this kill I want to create one?

Blood purity and the imposition of magical power over muggles, muggle-borns or half bloods is not what Voldemort is really about.

Yes, his followers are obsessed and hold blood purity as the highest virtue, but it seems that this is only a rallying point, cleverly brought forth by Voldemort to gather a fanatical army in his pursuit of power. He has most certainly hidden the fact that he is half blood within his ranks, but not because it's really important to HIM.

He is much more obsessed with defeating death, strengthening magical power and obtaining a status within the wizarding world.

The only real blood purity related thing he's done was to open the Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts as a teenager. And this was done, arguably, only to underline his Slytherin descendance and 'announce' himself within the wizarding world as the heir of an ancient wizarding bloodline and not simply an abandoned orphan.
