have to say, I agree. She's also the sort of person you'd want at a dinner party. Except if it was us lot, we'd have to be careful not to completely bombard her with questions and requests to write more books. Tell you what, though, I'd love to get my hands on those spin-off stories she's written for her close friends and family. They'll be like gold-dust one day. People will be selling them on the black-market and stuff.

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
