Happy Birthday Remus Lupin!

Remus was born in 1960, so if he would have survived the Battle of Hogwarts in 1998, today he would be turning 62.

What's that image in the tea leaves from your morning cup? Is that... a slice of cake? Must be, because it's Sybill Trelawney's birthday! Happy birthday, Sybill. Fingers crossed for no grim predictions today.

The American editor changed Sybill to Sibyll.

JKR preferred Sybill "because while it keeps the reference to the august clairvoyants of old, it is really no more than a variant the unfashionable female name 'Sybil'" (WW).

I love finding depicting something I've never seen an artist illustrate. Here's an example:

"Wizards don't...use the Internet but that's something you'll find out later on in the series. They have a means of finding out what goes on in the outside world that I think is more fun than the Internet" (RB).

She never revealed what that was.

“Brothers and sisters usually go in the same Houses, don’t they?”
“Oh no, not necessarily...Parvati Patil’s twin’s in Ravenclaw, and they’re identical. You’d think they’d be together...”

This cute piece by Adelle (IG: https://t.co/Aw8Lk7za2Y) is titled "Morning, Mrs. Potter." What do you think the Potter/Evans wedding was like?

JKR couldn't reveal the 12 uses of dragon blood because "the movie script writer wants me to give him that information for the film" (SFC). That was in 1999. Wasn't in the film, we still don't know.
