I’m rereading Book 3 right now, and here’s a few I came across (for the second time):
Hermione xD
Professor Lupin smiled at the look of indignation on every face. “Don’t worry. I’ll speak to Professor Snape. You don’t have to do the essay.” “Oh no,” said Hermione, looking very disappointed. “I’ve already finished it!”
Fred and George:
Percy, however, held out his hand solemnly as though he and Harry had never met and said, “Harry. How nice to see you.”
“Hello, Percy,” said Harry, trying not to laugh.
“I hope you’re well?” said Percy pompously, shaking hands. It was rather like being introduced to the mayor.
“Very well, thanks —”
“Harry!” said Fred, elbowing Percy out of the way and bowing deeply. “Simply splendid to see you, old boy —”
“Marvelous,” said George, pushing Fred aside and seizing Harry’s hand in turn. “Absolutely spiffing.”
Percy scowled.
“That’s enough, now,” said Mrs. Weasley.
“Mum!” said Fred as though he’d only just spotted her and seizing her hand too. “How really corking to see you —”
“I said, that’s enough,” said Mrs. Weasley, depositing her shopping in an empty chair.
“— and we couldn’t help noticing a drawer in one of his filing cabinets marked Confiscated and Highly Dangerous.”-Fred

Sorry about the spacing. I copied this from somewhere else.

"To Harry, Ron was a loud, slow, and soft bird. Harry did not like to think about birds."
Okay, that's not really from the books, but still.

Was that from the AI-generated chapter?

Guys, I think that the funny moments shuold still legitimately be from the book otherwise the funny moments won't be real so it messes the whole system up and then everything goes wrong. Let me know if you agree.
Happy ThanksGiving!

Hey, I was rereading (rererererererereading) book 3 too! I don't have the book handy right now but I do really love the part where Malfoy came back from Hogsmeade saying that he had seen Harry's head there...the part with Snape... "Why was your head in Hogsmeade, Potter? Your head is not allowed in Hogsmeade. No part of your body is allowed to be in Hogsmeade."
I'm hopelessly paraphrasing, but hands down, Snape is one of the best HP characters ever.
Also, with the boggart--Lupin, I think, told Neville that the boggart would assume Snape's shape and that phrase just stuck with me. I'd never noticed it before...but isn't it funny to say? Snape's shape.

*looked it up: "No part of your body has permission to be in Hogsmeade."

As Harry got caught with the Marauder's Map, and it was insulting Snape:
"Mr. Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people's business."
"Mr. Prongs agrees with Mr. Moony, and would like to add that Professor Snape is an ugly git."
"Mr. Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that an idiot like that ever became a professor."
"Mr. Wormtail bids Professor Snape a good day, and advises him to wash his hair, the slimeball."
And from the fourth book:
" "What are you doing here?" Ron and Fred said at the same time.
"Sending a letter," said Harry and George in unison.
"What, at this time?" said Hermione and Fred. "
I'll probably come up with more, but right now, I have to shower

Ooohhhh! YES! That second one always cracks me up SO BAD! It's so great.

It's late and I reeeeeaaaaallly don't want to look up the book and exact quote, but it went something along the lines of this.
"And why, Mr. Potter, does your textbook say "Roonil Wazlib" in it?"
"Uh, that's my nickname."
ICONIC

LOLOLOL I love those xD
Was that when Harry was pretending Ron's book was his in Book 6 so he didn't have to show Snape the Half-Blood Prince's book? Am I making that up? I think that's right...
(November 7, 2018 - 8:26 pm)
Yup, you got it. And Ron's quill was a spell-check thing one, but the enchantment was wearing off.

I’m rereading Goblet of Fire now:
“Mr. Crouch?” said Percy, suddenly abandoning his look of poker-stiff disapproval and positively writhing with excitement. “He speaks over two hundred! Mermish and Gobbledegook and Troll . . .”
“Anyone can speak Troll,” said Fred dismissively. “All you have to do is point and grunt.”
