I totally agree with you. 18 makes more sense than 17. It would make more sense for the first year of adulthood to be after they graduate from Hogwarts instead of their last year at Hogwarts. Plus, it was implied that there was higher education after Hogwarts as McGonnagal mentioned advanced studies after graduation to become an auror. It would make more sense for the legal age to be when they’re in the next stage of their education path or are working.

I always found it interesting that the legal age in the Wizarding World was 17, one year under the legal age in the muggle world. Using magic would require extra responsibility. So, wouldn’t it have made more sense for the age to have been 18 or older?

Imagine: Chris put Carrie White’s name in the Goblet of Fire as a malicious prank. Carrie was selected.

That’s a good point actually, the possibility of them maturing slower due to their lives being longer. That makes sense.

I always found it interesting that the legal age in the Wizarding World was 17, one year under the legal age in the muggle world. Using magic would require extra responsibility. So, wouldn’t it have made more sense for the age to have been 18 or older?

Theseus and His Troublemaker Siblings

Note 1: In this universe, magical creatures EXCEPT unicorns exist, but magic wands are not widely available. Only a small part of the population have magical ability.

Note 2: Newt got his case from a shop selling magical items. *The bartender handed Theseus a glass of butterbeer.*

Theseus: Thank you.

Theseus: Also, my little brother came by here a few weeks ago. He’s a Group Air Exec?

Bartender: *suddenly annoyed* You talking about John Scamander?

Theseus: Yes, that’s him.

Theseus: Uh, he said there was an incident and asked me to give you this. Said it was a replacement.

*The bartender opens the box Theseus gave him.*

Bartender: How exactly is this *pulls out the toy unicorn that was in the box and shows it to Theseus* supposed to be a replacement?

*Theseus stares at the toy unicorn, dumbfounded.*

Theseus: Sir, I don’t know what happened. All I know is that something happened, and he said that what was in the box will…make up…for it.

Bartender: *nods towards the wall* You see that broken narwhal tusk over there? He pulled it down off the wall, pretended to be a unicorn. Ripped two of my couches, broke almost every glass in the bar.

Theseus: *quietly* I see.

*After a few seconds*

Theseus: I’m sorry, is there anything—

*Everyone in the bar hears a boom and looks at the erumpent that just charged into the bar. Panic ensues. Newt Scamander, the middle Scamander sibling, comes running in, his suitcase in hand. The erumpent crashes through the wall, leaving the bar, and Newt chases after it.*

*Theseus just stares at the broken wall the erumpent and his brother had just left through for a few moments. Then, he just slowly turns away, takes his glass of butterbeer, and silently sips from it.*

I didn’t know they got AI involved in the music industry, too. This is so out of hand. 🤦‍♀️

April Fool’s Prank

It was teatime, and Newt, Theseus, and seven-year-old cousins Juliet and Judette went into the kitchen to prepare for it. Theseus and Newt washed their hands before going to the cupboards. Then, Juliet pushed the stepping stool in front of the sink and stepped on that stool. She tucked her nearly shoulder-length black hair behind her ears, rolled up the gray long-sleeves of her light pink shirt, and washed her hands. When she was done, Judette got on the stepping stool, quickly smoothed her dark blue t-shirt down, and washed her hands.

The kids got the placemats, utensils, and napkins, and started setting the table. Newt got the teabags, sugar, cups, and spoons for his and Theseus’s teas, and Theseus took out the plates and cups and set them on the counter within the girls’ reach. The girls took them and finished setting the table.

Newt sped up the steeping process, then took the sugar container and poured the sugar into the teas. Juliet and Judette saw that, and their eyes widened and they pressed their lips together, trying to suppress their smiles. Meanwhile, Theseus set out some scones, strawberry jam, cantaloupe that he had sliced earlier, and dairy-free milk.

Then, everyone sat at the table and got their food. The kids weren’t strong enough to pour the milk without making a mess, so Newt poured milk into Judette’s cup, and Theseus poured milk into Juliet’s cup.

Then, Theseus took his spoon and started to stir his tea. Newt did the same.

The girls quickly glanced between Newt’s and Theseus’s cups and their own food as they ate, trying not to be too obvious. Theseus was a highly observant auror after all.

When the brothers were done stirring their teas, they raised their cups to their lips and took a sip.

They sputtered in disgust.

The tea was salty!

The girls burst out laughing. Theseus and Newt, looked at them and then at each other, confused.

“We got you!” they exclaimed gleefully.

“What—” Theseus stammered.

“We switched the salt and sugar,” Juliet said, smiling.

“You did?” Newt asked incredulously.

“Yeah! We used magic to take them out of their containers and put them in the other ones,” Judette said excitedly.

Newt and Theseus were quiet for a few moments. Then, Newt remembered.

“It’s April Fool’s Day,” he said, smiling at Theseus. Theseus’s eyes widened in realization.

The girls giggled.

Theseus chuckled and shook his head.

“Alright, you got us,” he said in mock defeat. He held his arms out toward them. “Come here, you two.”

When Juliet reached him, he wrapped his arms around her and hugged her, rocking her gently. After he pulled out of the hug, his hands lingered on her shoulders and he smiled at her.

When he let her go, he turned to Judette, ruffled her short black hair, and pulled her closer to him so he could kiss her head. He then laid his hand on the edge of her shoulder, smiling at her.

Like her dad, Judette didn’t like hugs.

Theseus let her go and then turned towards Newt. He chuckled, and Newt shook his head in amusement.

The girls walked over to Newt.

“April Fool’s, Daddy,” Judette said as she looked up at Newt, a big smile on her face.

Newt laughed and shook his head.

“April Fool’s, Judette.”

He kissed his daughter on the top of her head and cupped her cheek before letting go and giving the same affection to his niece.

Buck: *quietly* Ohhh boy.

Theseus had his faults, but he was a really sweet brother. He was so quick to comfort Newt when he noticed something was up. ❤️

“We don’t have to change ourselves to fit others’ ideas of who we are.”

This is a good message for girls and women.

We’re not personal dress up dolls. We’re people.

We deserve to be happy the way we are. We also deserve to live our lives the way we want to live them.

@keepmeinmind-01 Lol yeah

@tina-mairin-goldstein 😆😆😆 Oh dear lol. Troublemaker lol.

Good theories!

@scamanderishredmayniac This being a normal occurrence is too funny lol.

Why on earth did Newt Scamander have Polyjuice Potion on hand? It’s one of the most complicated potions to make and takes a month to brew. Not only that, he only had a tiny bit on him. Exactly how often did he take the potion?

[freedomforthewin]

Lol I know, right?? He was acting like this was a totally normal thing to do.
