I’m sorry, but my existence obligates me to reblog this. :/

I just had to reblog after I had. Sorry. DEAL WITH IT.

If Pottermore doesn’t start opening more of the books soon, I swear I will smack someone upside the head with a hardcover copy of Order of the Phoenix.
well get your book ready my friend because theres supposed to be long periods of time between each one. Im talking years. I don’t know if it’s been changed or not cause I dont keep up anymore but when we first started betaing it they said CoS would be out sooner but there would be at LEAST a year between the opening of each one.update: Charlie Redmayne (Pottermore CEO) apparently said recently that the rest of the books will be coming over the ‘weeks and months’ to come (paraphrasing, but it was weeks/months rather than years) (i don’t know if this is true, it was sent in via fanmail. I guess google it if you really wanna know)
“Iron Man”. That’s kind of catchy. It’s got a nice ring to it. I mean, it’s not technically accurate, the suit’s a gold-titanium alloy, but it’s kind of evocative, the imagery, anyway.

“No one is born as great as they are going to be. No amount of talent can replace study and practice”
An incredibly smart essay (it’s not that long but I dont have a better word) about hufflepuff traits and how people are talented because of the work they put into their talent. Great read for members of any house, even if you disagree with some of it.
excerpts:
“Helga Hufflepuff vowed not to show favouritism. The other founders each had a virtue they prized best: essentially, they were being honest about which students they would give preferential treatment, while Hufflepuff wanted to see how everyone would work on an even playing field.”
“Hermione isn’t a Gryffindor for her courage (which is considerable), but because she believes courage is more important than any other virtue.”
“What this means is that every single person in Hufflepuff, regardless of their brains or heart or silver tongue, believes that the virtues they were born with are less important than the work they are willing to put in.”
“Brains aren’t much without the patience to fill them with knowledge. Ambition without dedication is daydreams and an overblown sense of entitlement. People from Maya Angelou to Aristotle have said that courage is the virtue that ensures all others – but it seems to me that, without the drive to keep pushing, no one ever gets a chance to display the rest of their virtues anyway.”
