Whenever Hagrid finally decides to retire as Care of Magical Creatures professor you can bet your last knut that Charlie Weasley flies back to England the following week excitedly waving his resume and recommendation letters from no less than two Scamanders and the Minister of Magic, Hermione Granger.
I’m pretty sure he would also have recommendation letters from Rubeus Hagrid, the retiring professor, Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived and a very confusing one from Puddlemere United player, Oliver Wood, saying that he was one of the best Seekers he had ever seen.
Not to mention the fact that he flies back to England not on a broomstick or any other normal form of transportation, but landing on the Hogwarts grounds on the back of the largest dragon anyone has ever seen.
Reblogging again for that last addition.
Charlie: *glides in on a dragon* HELLO HIRE ME
Everyone: What the fuck
Ron: (in the background, mortified) this is normal
The dragon is Norbert
he points out in front of ron how he doesnt crash into the womping willow
1. Blendin massively screwed up his coordinates and didn’t realize it
or
2. Stan briefly attempted to run a costume shop out of the Shack for some reason
honestly I find both options equally believable.
(It’s pretty plausible that Stan tried to run some cut-rate pop-up costume shop on the Mystery Shack grounds in the past. After all, Time Traveler’s Pig takes place not that long before Summerween. So there’s a reason for him to be selling costumes right around this date. The challenge is trying to imagine how hilariously terrible a costume shop it was, given Stan’s penchant for trying to swindle people. Especially when THAT costume actually looks REALLY good.)
but also think about what that means. It means that stan swindled blinden just moments before the screenshot
