Day 23: Celestial
“See, over there?” Harry tilts the tube and adjusts the knobs some more. “The stars are tracing out a lion. Do you see it?”
Tom squints. Maybe he can imagine a lion there, if he tries really hard. Not a real lion though. A paper lion.

every time i think about ginny in CoS i get unbelievably sad, but also it's so fucking funny when you think about her yapping to Tom...they were #real haters since day 1
the idea that they were sincerely bffs can be pried from my cold, dead hands.
for the serious point that he must select as victims of the basilisk people she's been gabbing about, as a way of terrifying and gaslighting her about whether she's responsible for the attacks - you just know she had a lot to say about what a prick she thought colin was and he was sitting in the ether [or wherever a soul lives] kicking his little feet in the air and saying "so true, bestie. amateur photography is cringe. hopefully nothing terrible happens to him!"
and for the less serious points that:
a. only the sort of theatrical teen edgelord who spent months coming up with an anagram of his own name could have written that valentine's poem.
b. the plan to lure harry to the chamber of secrets is really giving the way you used to ask out your crush when you were in year eight.
either tmr ships hinny [the horcrux is the chest monster! dean, you're in danger, girl!] and said "ok, let's get him down here and i'll gas you up", to which ginny replied "sick, i'll play dead so if he says no i can pretend i didn't realise you asked" or ginny ships tomarry and she said "i'll just chill unobtrusively while you impress him with your giant snake" and he said "class, do you reckon i should imply he's talentless and mid* while i do it?" and she said "yeah, one hundo" [omg snake!].
* “Well,” said Riddle, smiling pleasantly, “how is it that you — a skinny boy with no extraordinary magical talent — managed to defeat the greatest wizard of all time?"
tom... hun...

“The one time I ever met George, weirdly enough, was at Tom [Petty]’s house for Christmas. I knew what a big fan he was of the Beatles, so I found an old Life magazine with them on the cover and wrapped it up. When we sat down for the gift giving, George, who I worshipped — like everyone else — sat down next to me. Tom opened the gift, and there’s the Beatles. George turns to me and goes, ‘Oh, yeah, the Fabs, I remember them.’” - David Wild, Rolling Stone, January 17, 2002

I always understood it as muggle-borns literally, physically not being able to be sorted into slytherin, at all. mostly because the sorting hat makes a point to say this all the time lol. but I may be wrong? when Scabior says "there aren't ain't a lot of mudblood slytherins" I took it as glibness or sarcasm, because if there were a few slytherin muggle-borns then "vernon dudley" could still potentially be muggle-born so what would that prove. and if they could be sorted into slytherin why are the rates so low? if the hat was just sorting based on personality traits surely there'd be a more even spread
but I was surprised to see that most people don't interpret this the same way at all.
