Just your daily reminder that James and Lily actually went to school in the seventies and probably spent their whole school careers in flares and listening to disco.
Except, being that it was the seventies, there is an equal possibility that they were super into punk and the Sex Pistols and stuff and looked a lot like this guy on the weekends:
picturing remus lupin as a weekend glam goddess is giving me great pleasure
i like to imagine that they all would give Lupin their shirts to wear during full moons so he could tear them up when he wolfed out and it would be all artfully ripped afterwards. ~so~ chic
She didn’t mean James Potter.
She meant Severus Snape.
(first quote: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter Two: A Peck of Owls; second quote: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter Thirty-Three: The Prince’s Tale)
Holy crap. I didn’t even realize this. Brava for J.K. Rowling’s perfect continuity.
And all this time I was assuming ‘that awful boy’ was James. I owe him an apology.
OMFG! Brava! Bra-va!
Oh God she meant SNAPE. wow.
perfect author is perfect
Oh. My. Wizard. God.
But… but.
This is perfect. Fucking perfection.
Not only the continuity, but the fact that she meant Snape, not James.
Wow.
Dear people who question why girls go to the bathroom together
Hermione went alone and got attacked by a troll
Moaning Myrtle went alone too and was killed by a giant snake.
Katie Bell also went alone and was cursed by an opal necklace.
And if you are ashamed, humiliated, that you were once the confidant and lover of the Dark terror of the century—well, I must get my revenge somehow. Go teach your children, eat your candy, preen your bird and bury me. But we were brilliant together, Albus, and not even you can change history.

HBP: How did Harry not realize the hand writing in the Half-blood Prince’s potion book was the same as the hand writing he had spent 5 years reading off a black board?s
#For the main character of such a good book series #He really is an idiot #Ooh what is this long skinny broomstick shaped package? #ITS A BROOMSTICK NO WAY
#Slytherin house is a snake #heir of slytherin can talk to snakes #HMM I WONDER WHAT’S IN THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS #MAYBE IT’S A CHIHUAHUA #see this is why he’s not in ravenclaw
I guess Harry paid even less attention in Potions than I thought.
