  • 9. Will you go home during holidays?

No.  Not considering where I grew up.  I would’ve taken any excuse not to go into that house ever again.  (And I mean the house, not the people.)  In fact, I did take just about any excuse not to have to live there, and not to have to sleep there, so I’m certain I’d have stayed at Hogwarts over the holidays if I could wangle it.

  • 15. Are you going to be a pure-blood or half-blood or muggle-born?

Good question.  I’ve given it a lot of thought, but never come to a satisfactory answer.  Pure-blood or half-blood would be cool just because I’d already know all this stuff about the wizarding world, and not have to learn it from others.  Muggle-born would be cool because of the shock of learning that wizardry was real, and learning it all from the outside would be amazing at that age.  None of which even gets into the status you’d have within the school.  Although being a Hufflepuff I don’t think I’d encounter too much snobbery either way.  I have a feeling I’d be a Muggle-Born, but I can’t say exactly why I think so.  Possibly because I’ve always been a bit of an outsider and I don’t see why that would stop in the wizarding world.

  • 19. On hogsmeade visits, what shops will you go to?

Gladrags Wizardwear, Honeydukes, Madam Puddifoot’s Tea Shop, Scrivenshaft’s Quill Shop, The Hog’s Head, Tomes & Scrolls.

  • 24. Which part of the castle will be your favorite?

The Hufflepuff common room.

  • 25. When sleeping in your dormitory, will your four-poster bed’s curtains be drawn or closed?

Don’t drawn and closed mean the same thing?  I had to look that up.  Anyway they’d be closed.  I have always loved the idea of having a totally enclosed bed I could escape into.  I’ve thought of converting my hospital bed to a four-poster bed for the purpose, but I’ve never had the time, energy, and money.

  • 30. If someone was to form an organization similar to dumbledore’s army, will you join?

Absolutely, as long as I trusted the people in question.  With Voldemort on the loose, I’d want to be able to defend myself, and that’s besides wanting to get better grades than you could possibly get under Umbridge.  But Defense against the Dark Arts would be one of my favorite subjects, so I would definitely be joining, even if there wasn’t an immediate threat, just as a study club.

  • 49. What would your patronus be?

I answered this one already, but it depends on whether plants can be Patronuses.  It would either be a cat (not sure if domestic or wild, but definitely a female cat, as they’ve always been the most protective to me… could be a lynx or a bobcat or a semi-feral domestic cat but I do imagine some amount of wildness there), or a giant redwood tree.  I can just picture the tree planting itself between me and danger and exuding Extreme Old Age at anyone who got in the way.

Here is the list of questions in case anyone wants to ask more:
