I hear t hat irl he is some sort of bear . <| sep |> I really like this as a headcanon . Honestly might explain Hermione ' s mudblood status . It ' s not that shes a super genius , she ' s just the only person in her school who isn ' t absolutely inept . I mean I can almost suspend my disbelief with things like mathematics and chemistry and all that kind of stuff , I guess you don ' t really need it with magic . But the whole idea that the best a person could do being an expert in muggle studies is vaguely understanding that lightbulbs exist always baffles me . Same with history of magic , where sitting through a single lecture and understanding it is insurmountable because the professor is boring while rattling off about huge rebellions and being a ghost . It almost justifies the gang just bashing into a crate full of the most valuable artifacts in the world that can turn back time and not giving it any thought whatsoever .
