Voldemort:

Voldemort would see nothing but his own reflection. I think we should have all learned that Voldemort thought he could make no mistakes and that everything he did was great and one of a kind. I think when he looked in the mirror he would see nothing because in his mind he was going to kill Harry and rule forever.

Uncle Vernon:

I think that he would see nothing as well because he lived in a world were he pretended everything was normal. I think he would see nothing but himself because he made himself believe he lived in a perfect world and that he had everything he could want. Or he might see his life with out Harry if he wasn't vain enough to only see himself.

I wonder what I would see if I could look into such a mirror...it would be interesting to see. I would imagine that I would see myself as CEO of a company.

I think that Petunia would see herself with her sister, and both of them would have Hogwarts robes on. I know they are both way past school age, but it had always been Petunia's deepest desire to be accepted by Hogwarts.


as i was re reading this i thought the same thing.
that didn't come to mind at first.

Luna would probably see herself riding a Crumple-horned Snorkack or something ridiculous like that.

Honestly, I kind of see Luna seeing herself with her mother. I know that it sounds cheap, but I think that her mother's death largely affected her and the way that she chooses to live.

Yeah, I didn't think of her mother.

Yea, I agree I think she would be with her mother and father. Maybe also some of her friends. But knowing Luna I don't doubt there being something like a Crumple-horned Snorkack in the reflection also. Very Happy

Hehe, most likely, and probably a whole lot of other whacked out and crazy things that she and her father put in the quibbler Laughing It'd probably be jumbled and funny!

I found this quotw from Jo about Hermione at the lexicon.

"Hermione would see the trio 'alive and unscathed and Voldemort finished' in the Mirror of Erised. She may also see herself in a romantic embrace."

Lupin I think would see: Himself surrounded by Tonks holding the baby, James, Lily and Harry and Sirius.

Dudley: himself eating a ton of Cremecakes

Sirius: same as Remus only he'd be in the center with a couple of hot babes on either knee Smile

Or himself with both ears.


As far as I could tell, he thought the one-ear-thing rather funny.

If Luna looked in the mirror, I think she'd see the Crumple-horned Snorkack! Smile EDIT: But apparently someone already mentioned that... :/ Hey, I guess that makes it all the more likely!

Perhaps Umbridge would see herself as Minister of Magic. But what I really wonder is what Duddley would see, if muggles can look in the mirror.

I agree I think that he would see himself happy with his family, I don't know if Grindelwald would be in the picture after Dumbledore has seen his true colors...I'm not really sure, but i'm pretty sure that he would see his sister and mom safe, along with his brother and father.

Draco?

Personally, in books 1-4, he will probably see him humilating Potter. But in later books, he would see himself with no responsibilities or complications with Voldemort. He would see himself and his family safe and happy somehwere, with no dark afflictions.

And that romantic embrace would be with me.

Oh, wait. That's what I'd see.

He would never want Teddy to be one . . .
