but isnt it still needed to prevent cork rot at some point ? <| sep |> damn OP , that ' s a tough spot , hope you get sorted . for sure look for a better job though and fuck that plumber , he ' s not calling you back becasue he doesnt want to , call someone else , if family mattered to him he ' d have gotten you sorted soon as the temp dropped <| sep |> Well the effect on alchemy ingredients is called Cleansing , so I guess they meant it to be like a dispel effect of something similar . <| sep |> As I said in a different post regarding this , if Hagrid wasn ' t forced to release him into the wild , Aragog would have been better then a dog . He seems very loyal to Hagrid and is obviously able to speak . They would have been good friends . This is also why I think it ' s very plausible it was Newt . He would be a person that knew acromantula weren ' t as dangerous when kept in captivity , and Hagrid was a person that would understand this . Which is what Newt was trying to do with his book .
