Maybe I'm just being a little delulu ✨ but I think this is the perfect reason why there might be a sequel to the game that's set in their 6th or 7th year:

I know it's probably just a nod to the Chamber of Secrets. But you can't seriously tell me that the Gaunts haven't told Ominis about this! A previous descendant, Corvinus Gaunt, was able to conceal this part of the school during the construction of their plumbing system.
I'm so certain that this family secret has been passed on to the future generations. And besides, Harry was able to determine the existence of the Basilisk because it talked to him. He can hear it moving through the school. If anything, Ominis is the perfect student to handle this kind of situation because of his heightened sensitivity to sounds, he is a Parselmouth, and of course, his lack of sight.
Again, maybe I'm just being delusional but there is a reason why out of all the possible Sacred 28 families that WB could've chosen from, they chose a Gaunt; one of the most, if not the most, controversial family on that list.

Things that feel magical to me that aren't inherently magical:
The rush of my blood and the burning air in my lungs when I run
The lilting, drowsy feeling as I awaken to the sound of birds chirping
The sound of a conch shell mimicking the roar of waves when I put it up to my ear
Comfortable silence with those I cherish
Rainstorms followed by the shining sun
Sitting (alone) in nature with a hot cup of tea
The warmth of the sunlight on an otherwise cold day
Random, unprompted midday naps
Babbling brooks and crashing waterfalls

Pagan pro-tips
Having been pagan and polytheistic for about 7 years, I can attest to these tips’ efficiency:
Pinterest is your best friend when it comes to devotional art
But don’t ever trust a single line of information on there.
Casually call out or whisper a deity’s name when something makes you think of them, so you can invite them to witness it!
If someone asks too many questions and you don’t feel like “coming-out” as pagan, tell them you’re ~more spiritual than religious~ and they’ll act like they get it.
Write your own prayers who tf cares
Playlists playlists playlists
I’m serious, even the simplest stuff people would label as “aesthetic” works well when you’re on a busy schedule but you want to stay casually connected to your faith.
Sure, paganism is deeply personal, but are there other people you could learn from? People you could help? Listening + sharing = community building!

Screenshot Series #1:
Why the Wizarding World is out of touch
Now, we already know that the Wizarding World is painfully ignorant of what happens outside their own communities, and blissfully unaware of most muggle current events.
But I'd like to point out another thing. They are out of touch with their own people and environment.
Sure, we can say that this is just a product of the lack of technological advancements during the Victorian Era Wizarding World. But I have encountered places within different points in the map that shows literal dead bodies around.
(One example is the screenshots below but I have found another body that I have forgotten to take a picture of, and don't know where it is on the map anymore. I might update this post if I do manage to find it).

On top of their seeming apathy towards each other, the Ministry and Aurors are severely incompetent. In spite of magical abilities and resources, you'd think they'd be on top of their game. But we're left with proof that the Ministry is really grasping at straws with how out of control the Wizarding World is.
Tumblr media
Another thing I find so idiotic is the lack of regulation of magical artifacts! Portkeys aren't a brand new invention, going as far back as 1357.
So, why is the Wizarding World so lax about magical artifacts, when situations like this happen all the time that end up in a mishap, and can even be deadly like what happened to poor Hubert here?
And they look at muggles with disdain when we got our shit together better than they do without magic! If muggles can understand and have common sense to develop systems of communication, regulation, and control of dangerous weapons, why can't they? Is this a byproduct of their dependence on magic?
I just have so many questions.

I’m a big fan of the fact that Holy Water is essentially infinite. If you add a drop of Holy Water to any water, it all turns into Holy Water. So this is a petition to make this the same for all water. Sun water? Infinite. Storm water? Infinite. River water? Moon water? Any other form of blessed or charged water? Infinite. No more not being able to do a spell when you want because you ran out of moon water. Keep tiny jars of the charged water and pour them in a bigger jar. Bam. So much charged water. And then refill the jar in that new supply. This is my petition.
