It's been a very long month of study schedules, color coded notes, homework piles, and more studying, but I have returned to my blog. a I want to make it clear that, although I haven't been able to blog as much (or at all) I haven't forgotten about Fluffy and the "secret" he's guarding or even Snape. Snape looms heavily in my day to day, so keeping an eye on him isn't as hard as I thought. Although not all of my time can be spent devoted to stopping him, I'd like to make it clear that at least 45% of my time is. 👌?
That begin said, my day started in the library with Harry and Ron, whom I forced to come and study. If I pass, I also want my friends to do so as well. While we were in there, and Ron continued to grumble AGAIN, Hagrid passed by our table holding something behind his back.
If that doesn't scream suspicious, I don't know what does.
Not to mention the fact that Hagrid is NEVER in the library, so it was a bit of a surprise to see him there. We told him we'd meet him later to discuss more about Nicolas Flamel, since Hagrid was a bit more than surprised that we actually had figured it out.
Ron checked out what section Hagrid had walked out of, and it turns out he was looking through books about dragons. Dragons! What would he need a book like that for if he wasn't up to something not strictly legal, in the magical world especially.
When we went to see him, I encouraged him to tell us a bit more about what exactly the situation was concerning the security measures and Fluffy.
(Honestly, I think Hagrid would've told us whether I complimented him or not, but my way was faster.)
He told us the Professor Sprout, Professor Flitwick, Professor McGonagall, Professor Quirrell, Snape, and even Dumbledore had set about magical security measures to prevent anyone from getting in.
The fact that Snape also had his part meant that he himself most likely knew about how to get past the other enchantments; except Fluffy (who chewed him up and then spit him back out) and Professor Quirrell's spell (whatever it was).
And if that wasn't enough, it turned out that the reason why Hagrid was looking at Dragon books in the library was because he had a DRAGON EGG IN HIS HOUSE. WAITING TO HATCH.
I tried to warn him that he lives in a wooden house, but he wouldn't listen to me and went on as happy as an expectant mother would be.
All I can say is this is going to be an extremely hectic next few weeks.
