I know the books didn’t give us much about Tonks, and the films basically turned her into an extra, but my interpretation of her is a little different from most fans. This is purely personal, I’m not saying it’s the only correct one, just how I see her.

A lot of people talk about Tonks as if she’s a punky, pink-haired badass who swears, makes rude gestures, and can change anything about her appearance at will.

But here’s how I see her:

• A fierce woman who only does what she wants, doesn’t take “no” for an answer, and vents when she’s upset.

• Someone who fights tooth and nail for what she believes in, yet has a soft, fragile side too.

• Not a badass feminist stereotype. She married Remus, who had this huge protective instinct. A woman like that would’ve felt smothered, and Remus himself would’ve felt unnecessary. That would never have worked.

• Someone incredibly intense in love and conviction. She loved Remus so fiercely that his rejection broke her: her magic faltered, her Patronus changed... She loved him so fiercely that she didn’t care about being an outcast, about Bellatrix targeting her, about anything other than marrying him. She loved him so fiercely that she died because of it: running into a deadly battle after him, leaving her newborn behind, because she couldn’t stand not knowing if he was okay.

• A woman who loved to laugh and didn’t care about age or any other kind of prejudice. (She fell in love with someone 13 years older, was friends with Ginny who was 8 years younger, and married a werewolf. She really didn’t care.)

• Someone who changed her looks simply because she could. Pink was her favourite colour, and she only shifted her nose and hair. (Yes, she once disguised herself as an old woman, but honestly: make your hair grey, do an old-lady hairstyle, tweak your nose, and voilà! Headcanon: She probably did it just to tease Remus after one of his “too old” arguments. Remember this happens immediately after Harry finds them having a private conversation in Order of the Phoenix. The timing makes me laugh every time 🤣.)

And don't forget that Harry recognized her almost every time (he just wasn't paying much attention to the "old lady"). People act as if we don't know how she really looks like, but the books repeatedly describe her as having a pale heart-shaped face and dark eyes. Her hair is mostly pink, but it's naturally "mousy brown". She also shows up with long red hair and blonde curls.

• Definitely not the type to constantly swear and make obscene gestures. She might’ve used slang, sure, but anything harsher wouldn’t have suited Remus’ quiet politeness... and honestly, I think she would’ve found him boring if she’d been that brash.

And honestly? I see her as ADHD-coded:

• Loves changing her looks ✔️

• Clumsy as heck ✔️

• Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria ✔️

• Big, intense feelings ✔️

Why do I read her like that? Because it makes total sense in canon, that's the idea I always have when I read the books... and maybe also because that’s literally... me!

1. I’ve always hated being called by my real name (just now learning to accept it, because I love its meaning).

2. I’ve got ADHD (and autism. Yeah, jackpot, right? 😅).

3. I’m an actress, so I keep changing my looks.

4. I don’t care about age gaps. Most of my friends are younger or older, never my age.

5. I’m not prejudiced; my friends are from all sorts of backgrounds.

6. I’m always cracking jokes.

7. I fight obsessively for what I think is right.

8. My feelings are ridiculously intense.

9. My mum married my dad, who came from a lower social class.

10. I'm an only child.

11. I'm really stubborn.

12. My grandfather’s surname? Black. (Well, actually “Preto”, which means “Black” in my mother language, Portuguese. 🖤)

11. I'm a proud Hufflepuff 💛

12. And, of course, I love Remus with all my heart. 🩷

So yes, maybe it’s unpopular, but this is my Tonks. Which is also why whenever I write Remadora, it always ends up as self-insert. 😅

This has been bugging me for a while. We know absolutely nothing about Lucius’s mother (abraxas’s wife).

I’ve sort of come to the conclusion that she probably had died before Draco started Hogwarts in 1991 and she would have been alive before Lucius’s birth in 1954. I’ve also had the idea that she might have died when Lucius was still young or before he graduated Hogwarts in 1971. That possibly puts her death in between either 1954-1991 or 1954-1971.

There is also the idea that she died giving birth to Lucius, which would also account for the fact that she was never mentioned in the books.

Okay, I did this at 12 o’clock at night and didn’t finish till two in the morning. Bare with me.

My theory is really long and I typed it out once. I’m not gonna do it again. Fight me. I’ll go in steps, giving you the math, pages and books.

Page 742 in the Deathly Hallows

Page 275 in the Cursed Child

742-275= 467

Page 467 in the Deathly Hallows

467-275= 192

Page 192 in the Chamber of Secrets

742-192= 550

Page 550 in the Half-Blood Prince

275-192= 83 (yeS I KNOW, THERE’s a loT OF SUBTRACTING. Bare witH IT)

Page 83 in the Sorcerer’s Stone (also involves page 77)

Lastly 192-83= 109

Page 109 in the Sorcerer’s Stone

My point to all this is that maybe they were meant to be enemies first BUT! If you subtract 275 and 192, you’ll have 166. Now turn to that page in the Order of the Phoenix. You’ll see Harry comparing himself to Draco. So maybe they’re much more alike than we think.... maybe they’re.... GAY?!

If you have any questions, just message me, I can send pictures of the full theory that explains the pages. Thanks for at least reading! See ya~

We know that every year she declares that one of her student is going to die, and nobody takes her really seriously. But, when she predicts Harry a violent death that is quickly coming, she is right since he had to die for Voldemort to die.

A thought.

Is it possible that Wormtail intentionally let Barty Crouch Sr. go? What if he regretted joining Voldemort and wanted to make things right, so he hoped Crouch would make it to Hogwarts.

if the knocker gave harder riddles to 7th years than to 1st years and so on. And that made me thinking a little.

If we ignore the fact that it seems like the riddle is the same all day and then changes, I wonder if it in some way adapts to the person that is going to answer.

I feel like if it did, that would make it so much more important, because not only would it keep everyone else than Ravenclaws out of the common room, but also be a kind of tool to make the members of the house grow as persons and Ravenclaws.

Ravenclaws are supposed to be witty, unique, and open-minded, right? And always ready to learn. So what if, when you touch the knocker it can, similar to the sorting hat, get a picture of what’s in your head? And then it picks a riddle after that. (This also makes sense with how it keeps other people out of the room. If it can see that the person is from a different house it can give riddle that is way to hard for that specific person to answer, and that way they can't get in, unless the knocker wants it to [Minerva McGonagall])

So it picks a riddle that they know won’t be impossible, but each time the person to answer has to think really hard, broaden their views, and think outside of the box to find the answer. And thinking outside of the box is important in the Ravenclaw’s cleverness right?

That way, everytime entering the common room, every Ravenclaw student has been forced to open their mind a little more, and has been taking one more step closer to really being a pure true Ravenclaw.
