Hogwarts Homework

As you know I have both a Harry Potter problem and a sock knitting problem. So I am in two swaps at the moment involving socks and Harry Potter. Yesterdays post was for one swap today's is for another. I must answer the following questions and let a prefect know when I've done it.



What type of pet do you choose as your companion at Hogwarts?



An owl would be rather useful, but I could always use a school owl... So I think a cat because it would be better company than an owl. A very smart cat like Crookshanks of course.



While shopping in Hogsmeade you stop by Honeydukes for some sweets. What treats do you purchase for yourself?



Their best chocolate, of course! Lots of it so I don't run out before the next Hogsmeade weekend.



A potion you are preparing needs an ingredient available only at muggle shops. You don't want to stand out in your wizards robes, so you resort to traditional muggle clothing. Describe your outfit in detail.



I suppose I would wear something very much like I did before attending Hogwarts, being Muggle born and all. Faded and well worn Levi's 501's, fitted V-neck t-shirt probably black, a pair of Converse All Stars. I might bring a hooded sweatshirt along if it's cold out.



What is your favorite subject to study at Hogwarts and why?



Charms or Transfiguration- both would be fun and terribly useful. I think becoming an animagus would be a great challenge!



Likewise, what subject is your least favorite and why?



I imagine I would have a have a hard time with Divination. Mostly because pleasing Professor Trelawney would be difficult- she would know if I was making it up. Perhaps I would drop it later in my studies!



Back to the potion you were shopping for ingredients for, what type of potion are you making, what color is it, what are the ingredients, and precisely what does the potion do?




An Invisibility potion- since we can't all have cloaks. It is a different color to each person who looks at it. It's silvery for me. Some of the ingredients: chameleon blood, Rowan tree bark, light of the full moon, vanilla extract (from the Muggle shop), jewel beetle wings- I would tell you the rest but it's not perfected yet and I don't want to be responsible for any accidental poisonings. It takes precisely 27 days to make and must be stored in a cobalt blue glass bottle. It gives who ever takes it the ability to blend with their surroundings so perfectly as to become invisible, like a chameleon but better.
