|
|
WHat can you say about the houses? any info?
I think the houses are well named:
ravenclaw - the smart people
ravens are very intelligent animals, and the smartest birds.
gryffindor - the brave people
a gryffin is a lion with the wings of an eagle. they are very noble creatures
slytherin - the cunning people
sounds like slithering, the movement of snakes. the animal of slytherin is a serpent
hufflepuff - the hardworkers
badger: err... i have no idea what's up with badgers... _________________

then all the more she and ron are meant for each other - weasel and an otter. maybe ron's patronus is a weasel.
although why would hermione's patronus be an otter? any reason why it might be significant to her? im not very good at animals. _________________

JKR said that Hermione is alot like herself and that Hermione's patronus is an otter because that is JKR's favourite animal. Ron's patronus is a small dog almost like a Jack Russell. _________________ Name: Arwen Black

JKR said she liked otters and Hermione is a bit like her.
Also, Otters are a part of the weasel family. I like to think it's a bit of R/Hr shipping. Especially since Ron is from the Burrow in Ottery St. Catchpole. Or maybe this part is just wishful hoping on my part. _________________

But of course. J.K. was very smart when she choose the animals to represent the house. _________________ Join Reality Of It All!!! |
