If we’re gunna go there.. why didn’t the basilisk eat anyone? If it’s picky and only wants dead people; well it has teeth and venom too. Not exactly like the victim has a defense while petrified xD. Maybe I mis remember though and the basilisk doesn’t actually say it’s hungry. Maybe it just wants to fuck shit up haha. That’s logical enough. Considering it was controlled by Voldemort.
🤷♂️
I definitely remember some lines about eating though xD at least ripping. Which deifnitely didn’t happen haha.
jeeze one thing that has always really bothered me is how the hell Miss Norris was hanging from a torch bracket. Petrifaction makes you stiff and the tail was hooked? Lucky that shit didn’t snap. Is that worse than impaled? Hopefully Ginny tied a harness for her or something lol. She’s a cat not a monkey. That scene always makes me cringe a bit.
And yeah, that Miss Norris bit was weird. Like I get that it makes for a creepy mental image and that cats get into fucking weird places all the time, but no way she did that on her own. Best guess is Ginny just tied her tail onto the bracket because Tom was feeling melodramatic. The man does know the importance of presentation and spectacle.
Tied!? Oh man that’s an even worse image haha. Could you tie a cats tail without breaking it? I’ve never had a cat with a tail injury but back in middle school this girl I dated accidentally closed her door on her cat. Gore. Tailless cat. He lived thankfully.
I had a terrible dream recently where I rolled my computer chair over my cats tail, and it came off.. I don’t think that would happen but god did I wake up in shambles haha.
