From exploring wild fan fiction, analyzing forum posts, to identifying plot inconsistencies, these amusing Tumblr posts will surely put you in the right frame of mind for an exciting Harry Potter marathon. All of this fun content will surely make you burst into laughter!
So Much to Live for
The final battle at Hogwarts in the last book of Harry Potter was deeply sorrowful. We lost characters that we have all grown to love, like Fred, Remus, and Tonks, who sacrificed their lives in this desperate effort to overcome the evil Voldemort.
It’s really admirable that this superfan not only figured out the exact date of the battle, but also discovered that just two days later, a pop-rock sensation known as Smash Mouth released a hit song. It’s a true sorrow that these characters never had the chance to enjoy the catchy tunes of Smash Mouth.
What a Guy
In the hugely popular fanfic “Choices” crafted wonderfully by MesserMoon, we find the stories of characters we love such as James, Sirius, Lily, Lupin, and the whole group during their school years. Within this tale, a particularly intriguing subplot unfolds as a character named Mary forms a crush on Amos, who is destined to become the father of Cedric Diggory.
Surely, you’ve got to picture Amos as a younger fellow who was less keen on tweed in those days. Since, honestly, we’re not so certain he’d be as popular with the girls if he was any different.
Oh, Ron
Characters from “Harry Potter” have really come alive in their own right. Fans are totally thrilled when they think about where these characters go and what adventures they have after their time at Hogwarts, and how they respond to various new situations.
It’s clear to everyone that Ron is quite the jester, and so this out of context quote from Harry Potter fits him to a T. In Ron’s defense, we’d all probably high tail it out of there fast in case of a fire, and most certainly if it was an enchanted “fiendfyre”!
So Embarrassing
We really appreciate how this admirer imagines that even the most wicked villain from the enchanting realm is subjected to ordinary human occurrences like “cringe flashbacks” during the night. We can all relate to such experiences, and this notion makes them feel a lot closer to us.
It’s honestly pretty impressive that the young chap Tom Riddle named his crew the “Knights of Walpurgis”. But, “Deatheaters” has a much cooler ring to it, so we’re sincerely glad he ended up choosing that one.
