    Please don’t let Merida be related to ANYONEβ€”I beg of you.

    They said they’re pretty much going the Frozen route with Merida, where they’re just plucking her straight out of the movie, so I doubt it. With Frozen last year, Ingrid was Emma’s foster mother, but she was specifically an original character to the show, and wasn’t a blood relative. So I think it’s safe to say that Merida at least won’t be blood related to anyone of the core characters.

    Probably History of Magic. Because I’m a huge history lover/nerd and had a really boring teacher like Binns (who might have been a ghost too).

    If taught by an interesting and passionate professor, I could see History of Magic being a very intriguing subject. I was fond of my history classes back when I was in school.

    1. Why is Harry is so interested in the box Hagrid removed from Gringotts?

    The more secretive something is, the more tempted Harry is to find out about it. After all, this entire Wizarding World is a mystery to him. He’s been shielded from the truth for the past 10 years living with the Dursleys.

    2. Do you feel, from what we know so far, that Professor Snape is an effective teacher?

    I agree with RG. Snape is a terrible teacher. He plays favorites with his Slytherin students, while going out of his way to make things as miserable as possible for Harry and his fellow Gryffindors. I’ve always wondered why hasn’t Harry or any student for that matter ever tried reporting Snape’s actions to Dumbledore. In the real world, abusive behavior towards students could lead to their parents taking actions against the school and its faculty. Could it just be British boarding school culture, where professors are given more free reign in regards to how they treat their pupils? If you have issues with the way your professor treats you, it’s simply tough luck from there? This will become even more relevant once we get to Professor Umbridge in Book 5. Umbridge makes Snape look tame by comparison, in terms of abuse of power over students.

    3. What would be your favorite subject at Hogwarts (in First Year)?

    Defense Against the Dark Arts would probably be mine. Definitely a useful subject to know, and I’ve always found it fascinating.

    There’s some very interesting possible foreshadowing in this chapter, and its somewhat well known among Harry Potter fans. Snape asks Harry the following:

    “Potter, what would I get if I added powdered root of asphodel to an infusion of wormwood?”

    According to the Victorian language of flowers, asphodel is a type of lily, which means “my regrets follow you to the grave.” Wormwood means “absence” and symbolizes bitter sorrow. Snape was in love with Harry’s mother, Lily, and feels guilty for her demise. So, the possible hidden meaning to Snape’s question could very well mean “I bitterly regret Lily’s death.” Snape’s secret love for Lily was planned by Rowling for a very long time, so this wouldn’t surprise me if this was intentional. In fact, it’s well known that Rowling told Snape’s secret to Alan Rickman way back when he first started playing Snape in the films, and he took advantage of that knowledge in regards to his performance.

    Personally I think there might be some backstory between Mr. Gold and Merida, if she is shooting arrows at his shop.

    Adam and Eddy admitted that the casting call for Rumple’s mother was a lie to hide Merida, but that doesn’t mean there can’t still be a connection between Rumple and Merida. They are both “Scottish”, after all.
