I KEEP FORGETTING ABOUT THE MOUSTACHE

[@iimax_9135]

Will you be doing a Kahoot soon?

[@LeoChaseTheMythMaster]

Will one (or both) of you grow out your hair for a year?

[@johnschwalb]

You guys got the Voldemort name quotes mixed up.

[@samanthanichols1569]

I have a new theory for you to check out …………. Unfortunately it’s about lockheart So if lockheart is gifted with memory charms what’s to say he isn’t casting a glamour charm on himself to look better than he is but all I have for proof is how his hair dulls after he erases his memory in the chamber of secrets

[@coolnerdlll6053]

As much as I love the fake premonitions bit in Goblet of Fire, Ron instantly nailing that Riddle killed Myrtle is absolutely priceless.

[@hicat808]

You mean Myrtled Murder?

He also got a lot of OWLs, and got credit for saving the school from a beast.. all three of those were spot on. 😁

[@toeray5864]

Nobody ever talks about it but Ron winning a life or death chess match against magically enchanted chessmen when he had to protect four pieces instead of one is incredible. That's Grandmaster stuff.

[@balloons4419]

@toeray5864 It just occurred to me while reading your comment. Why Ron didn’t switch the king piece with one of them? Was he unable to do so? The last time I read the books was a long time ago.

[@captainspaulding5963]

​@balloons4419 are you asking why Ron didn't choose the king? If that's the case, he specifically chose the knight

[@Corvus_Brachyrhynchos]

[@heinshaaine8153]

@@balloons4419 The missing pieces where chosen prior to them entering, if i remember correctly

[@danielwallace9769]

​@@heinshaaine8153I /think/ in the books, they told the pieces they replaced to go away, and they jumped off the set. Regarding the original question, my guess is one factor, which had two reasonings. Ron chose chess pieces that, at least somewhat, have good agency. Bishop, Rook, and Knight, iirc. I'd imagine part of it is thinking "we're more able to play the game, so we should be pieces that actually are active" (hey, in fact, with how wizards chess pieces have a tendency to do their own will, that might have even been a really smart move, though we never hear about that in that particular game, but we have ron's chess backseatgaming Harry) The second, I could imagine, is just Ron genuinely "wanting" to be a main character, or have his friends be main characters. Even if it's smarter to be a minor character (and despite being the win condition, the king really is just a support piece for most of the game), I could see him wanting, even subconsiously, to have the three of them be the main characters of the game.

[@glenmcgrath3107]

Ron during that homework also predicts he'll drown twice, 1. during goblet's second task, 2. getting the sword of Gryffindor deathly hallows

[@patrickschnieders1968]

YES!!! I was searching the comments looking for someone else who noticed that!

[@cacklebabygg6156]

He did myrtle 💀

[@surferdude4487]

He committed myrtlecide.

[@AndyJacksonSoftware]

Actually, Tom did Myrdle Murder: His future murders have the same thing happen to the victims as happened to Myrtle (used as a vessel). And it's so he could always escape to ghost form.

[@toonman5099]

He did indeed Myrtled Murder.

[@venrox7053]

I love the films aswell when trelawny passes Ron and gasps then says “your aura is passing dear. Are you in the beyond? I think you are.” And Ron’s just like “Sure.”

[@Y_r_u491]

The seer saw that Ron was a seer who saw the future

Oh yeah! We all thought she was crazy saying he’s dieing, but no she just could feel/see that his aura traveled through realms

[@JessicaClark-lq4gw]

@venrox7053 I think the quote is supposed to be pulsing not passing. It's the weird voice she uses that makes it sound odd.

[@scottcharlietodd7380]

Gotta love the fact that J spent a whole 40 seconds trying to say "Because Tom did murder Myrtle"

[@samurexatlas7373]

I think you mean Murtle Myrder.

[@TheRealBrit]

And then after finally saying it, immediately messed up again by calling hagrid "haggard"

[@eddyburbridge8764]

​@@TheRealBritfor some reason that made me think of when Hagrid said: "mad n hairy? You wouldn't be talkin' bout me now, would ya?" Lol

[@jkent9915]

In my head cannon I don’t know if Ron is a seer so much as he just genuinely and naturally believes in the power of magic in ways that Harry and Hermione could only learn. I think he just allows magic to guide him. I believe the best wizards do this, they are in-tune with the magic around them, like how Dumbledore, Voldy, and Snape are powerful occlamens even without casting a spell. I think they all just sorta trust their intuition much more than average.

[@MrSailing101]

so, the force?

[@teacookieYT]

They DO indeed say that the Weasleys have been extra-particularly gifted wizards through the ages

[@thefench1]

Or and here me out here... both Harry and Hermine are raised in the muggle world and Ron as descendant of wizard family has a deep connection to that world that the other 2 wont share (yet)

[@Wolf-E-Romeo]

It doesn't help that harry lived in a household that very strongly implemented that "magic isnt real!" Where as hermione lived in a WORLD where "magic doesnt exist."

[@SingingSealRiana]

Most of harrys successes work the same way, he is extreamly prone to wild magic and foe example his expeliarmus fetish.. He had no way of knowing how that would woek out, all logic was against that woeking but he went on Instinkt ans it just happened

[@navibanfield1591]

I had been waiting for this video for a while and i was very happy with all of it but you still missed the most important thing about the prediction that Ron made about "the grim". He broke it down into a "wonky cross" and "a sun" saying that Harry would "suffer and sacrifice" but he will be happy about it. 4 years later after years of trial and suffering at the hands of Voldemort and his followers, Harry walks himself into the forbidden forest to sacrifice his own life for the sake of the world and he is, in fact, happy to do it.

[@Sucha_Hufflepuff]

If I remember correctly, that is reversed in the book. Harry tells that prediction to Ron.

[@HufflepuffOnThree123]

Bingo ​@@Sucha_Hufflepuff

[@OksanaChristie]

I’ve been saying for YEARS that ron has some kind of intuition / gut feeling / random suggestion that leads the gang in the right direction everytime

[@rjgaynor8]

My wife and I agree that Ron is definitely a seer. He repeatedly says things that actually happen. Like he knows it’s going to happen.

[@sephoraaponza7113]

He is a pisces ♓️

[@FrogInSpace47]

I think it was because he was brought up as a wizard always aware of that world so has more experience than Harry or Hermione

[@thekicker2517]

​@@sephoraaponza7113I swear astrology is racism for white chicks.

[@robrose2664]

Same. I've commented about it loads of times now. It's not just him. The twins' bet at the world cup. Percy recommends divination specifically as the course to take in chamber. I've been asking for this for years. Looking forward to them realizing it's all the Weasley boys and not just Ron.

[@WiltarrowMain]

Does she ever cast any magic ever? I'm thinking maybe squib?

[@felicityanne979]

​@swordseye2 nope not a squib. In the battle of hogwarts she uses magic to throw the crystal balls at death eaters. Just the form of magic she prefers doesn't require wand waving and silly incantations.

[@Boundwithflame23]

@@felicityanne979I thought she just had a pile of them in her arms and threw them manually one by one. Might have to read that bit again

[@6666Imperator]

Maybe she believes that the future needs to be accepted, if she has seen it? Not something unlikely to do for a seer who believes in her powers and the flow of fate that they would not repair something that broke because of fate I would say

[@felicityanne979]

@Boundwithflame23 I've always read it as she throws them in the air and "wooshes" them because it says "like a tennis serve," but I guess that could also just mean fast. Either way, her ability to see the future is her magic, so she still wouldn't be a squib and I'm pretty certain she has a wand so she'd have to be a witch.. also most likely graduating from hogwarts.

[@ryankennard6626]

Perhaps Dumbledore knew. When he left Ron the Deluminator, perhaps it was because he knew Ron would be able to see when his friends needed him most.

[@silverhoney6969]

And it’s not just the light/ sight- the delumjnatior gave them Sight guidance and direction- and rons power of predictions also do that, but he knew they would need more

[@ryankennard6626]

I also love how your first video of Ron mockingly predicting that Harry would suffer and be happy about it came true as he went into the forest to die at the hands of Voldemort willingly and “gladly” sacrificing himself for his friends and to defeat his enemy.

[@soulofhogwarts]

That apply for too far of the story but within that movie harry did suffer from anger and grief when he learns from gossips of teachers that serius betrayed his parents and now wants to kill him and he feels good about at the end when he found out serius was not real culprit and he wants to reunite with him.

[@recaru0331]

Ron works so well as a seer, as his focus is scattered just enough that he's open to visions all the time. So much that it's just become part of his ordinary life.

[@MagusAgrippa8]

There was a Harry Potter guide book I owned when I was younger that had deep-dive analysises of the series. Part of the analysis included some rules, namely certain chapter numbers consistently being significant, and a very interesting rule concerning Hermione and Ron. Hermione's rule read 'she is usually right, unless she's emotional' and Ron's was 'he is usually wrong, unless he's joking.'

[@katherinkeegan8601]

I have the same book. And that was one of the truest things in it.

[@supritatalnikar6744]

Wow! That is indeed right! Could you tell us the name of the book?

[@MagusAgrippa8]

@@supritatalnikar6744 The Ultimate Guide to Harry Potter, or something to that effect. I remember a single book that covered Book One through Book Four, and then a follow-up that covered Book Five. Not sure that this group made anything for Book Six or Book Seven.

[@FlanylShirtman]

I've been saying this for 20 years. It's always the off-hand comments that turn out true for both Ron and Trelawney.

[@SirTrypsalot]

His other prediction in divinations class book 3 also came true. "You are going to suffer, but you will be happy about it" perfectly explains harrys encounter with dementors. They make him suffer, but there's a part of him that's happy about being able to hear his parents

[@joeracicot4093]

Harry is the one who says that in the books

[@austinrestovic]

The slides for the quotes of Ron telling them not to say Voldemort's name in Deathly Hallows, and for Hermione saying Voldemort's name in Order of the Phoenix are reversed, showing Hermione's quote while you're reading Ron's, and vice versa. JSYK.

[@Dree_Lavoie]

I was about to say the same thing, but saw that you already commented on it 😊

Remember that Ron was raised with stories of "The Boy Who Lived". Of course he'd think that Harry, "the chosen one" was the one destined to find the stone.

14:20 I always took the "lose a treasured possession" to be when Harry and Ron break up and aren't speaking. I know it's out of order from the "danger of burns", but it feels more like these predictions are just about their near futures and not necessarily chronological.

[@Marvinuser]

hmmm its the cassandra connection! from greek mythology, and yes Ron is actually showing the genuine 'signs of the seer's curse of cassandra' forever doomed, cursed by the gods to be ignored in her prophecies, and always be right but never get the credit... much like ron, and much like trelawney herself is the complete opposite of, cause she is not even aware that she is right or even when she predicts truely (even though, her ancestor is.... the ACTUAL CASSANDRA, in universe)

[@katmaresparkles9578]

There is one thing that was missed, and that is the fact that, while Ron doesn't do this himself, he is right about it in a weird sort of a way. The fact is Fred is killed.

[@lahlybird895]

Kind of depends on how you interpret it. Yeah after it's revealed Ron says that Fred told him he'd have to wrestle a troll however when Harry asked the question earlier on the train what Ron said was something more along the lines of "I don't know but Fred says it hurts a lot" so if you keep that comment in mind when he later brings up wrestling a troll it's possible he's making a hypothetical based on what Fred said that he's like Fred was going on and on as if I was had would have to wrestle a troll or something which isn't the freezing he used because he did stated as if it was a fact that Fred said that however based on his earlier quote it could be interpreted that he is guessing or exaggerating or feeling in the blanks with that specific phrase. This is entirely less clear but possible. Equally possible as some other replies have suggested if that Fred also is a seer, evidenced by the prediction at the world cup or even by Fred and George deciding to give Harry the Marauder's map when they did under the vague idea that they thought he needed it more than them now. Or even them stealing the map in their first year.

[@Knowledge.to_Come]

It would explain why he is so good at chess

[@sakurap95]

Harry as the chosen one, Hermione as the smart one, Ron as the seer. I dig this trio. That would’ve been cool if Ron could’ve learned to control his sight during the BOH and was the one pulling Harry and Hermione out of the way of spells. You’d see them working together a lot more as a team throughout the seven books.

[@silverhoney6969]

Well it’s almost like his words have guided them all along, they just didn’t know it. So they couldn’t have done it without Ron if he was never part of them from book 1

Harry Potter theory: The invisibility cloak was made through the filidalius charm. So passing it down generations carries the charm on. Dumbledoor gives it to harry - through a note. Which is the same thing he does to reveal grimold place to Harry. And he was a strange ability to see Harry under the cloak

[@firestar4430]

[@AimeeHope89]

@@toxicviper9961 that's true, but I don't think that closes the matter. Dumbledore never claimed to know everything, and was wrong on several occassions. If he truly thought wizards could make such objects, would he not have attempted it himself with Grindelwald in his youth? Or Grindelwald do so on his own? Wouldn't Voldemort have done that when he was making horcruxes? No point being alive to conquer the world if you're not the strongest, and he's weakened in that state. No way to prove it one way or another, but it makes far more sense for them to have been made by Death imo just because they are so powerful. Just my opinion, you don't have to share it.

[@deanroberts1382]

You forgot Ron's prediction on Scabbers/Peter when he introduced Scabbers to Harry. "This is Scabbers btw, pathetic isn't he."

[@hiddentruth1982]

I think it's more intuition than seer. Ron may not be the brightest of the 3 but he can put 2 and 2 together with his gut feeling. An example would be a strange book in a bathroom where someone died in a place full of magic items. His gut told him it could be nothing good.

Isn't the first prediction about the troll more of a Fred and George prediction? Ron heard them go on and on about it, he wasn't the one to start the idea. Maybe it runs in the family.

That was my immediate reaction. If it was a prediction, it was Fred's not Ron's

[@captainspaulding5963]

It 100% is Fred and George. Just like Ron being right about Myrtle is in no way shape or form indicative of him being a Seer. Myrtle was killed in the past.

[@Mrs.Watcher]

It would make sense that if Ron already had this gift, and Dumbledore knew it, he gave Ron the Deluminator, not because it by itself could lead Ron back to Harry and Hermione in the last book, but because it could enlighten his understanding of his own ability to find them using precognition.

Peter shouldn't count toward "13 dining together" unless he's also dining, which I don't think is specified, but is very unlikely since people tend to not want a rat at the dinner table. If you're eating lunch at a table and a friend comes to sit next to you but doesn't also eat lunch, you wouldn't then say that you and your friend ate lunch together.

[@mindovermatterbecomingyour1561]

I mean it's entirely possible that Ron slipped some food into his pocket for "scabbers" and I wouldn't be surprised if Ron was doing that a lot since crookshanks was always chasing "scabbers" so I'm betting Ron would keep him in his pocket and just slip some food in there for him so he could eat and be safe

[@forestgrump4723]

I mean, I might? It’s not unheard of to say “so and so joined me for lunch” if you sat and talked together while one of you ate. I mean if your spouse was working late and ate after everyone else and you tell your friend “yea my spouse missed dinner” you’re not…. Wrong?

Now that you say so… it could actually be true. Not even the possible fact that “seers need to be descendants of seers to be so” can deny it because absolutely everyone in the wizard isn’t world is related to everyone in the wizard it world xd Him nailing many things, even as a joke, is sus

⚠️Off topic from video, day fifteen of asking for what ifs⚠️ 1: What if Dudley went to Hogwarts? I think he'd be a Hufflepuff and be pretty good at defense against the dark arts and I think it would be fun to have him be good at divination cause none of the golden trio are good at or even seem to respect it. 2: What if Aang died with the other Air nomads and one of the other main characters eventually became the Avatar? I think the most interesting would be Sokka and Zuko. 3: What if Prim became the Mockingjay? The only way I see this happening is if Katniss gets caught hunting and either gets killed or sent to the Capital and becomes an avox, a year or two before Prims game so she gets some survival skills not as good as Katniss but better than nothing. 4: So this one is kinda out there maybe it would be fun to do as a April fools thing or something I don't know but here we go... What if you guys made a Harry Potter crossover? Only crossovers with stuff that could feasibly exist in the Harry Potter world, the first ones that pop into my mind is Percy Jackson, Buffy the vampire slayer, BBC's Merlin maybe Supernatural the last one I'm less sure but you get the point like I said this last suggestion is very out there and I don't expect it to go anywhere. 5: There's a lot of fanfic out there where Harry is raised by someone who are not the Dursley's I definitely think you guys should do a full what if for that concept I find the most interesting being Harry is raised by Snape.

[@diabolicallink]

[@13thxenos]

I first read about it in a fanfiction, the second installment of a dramatic reading by white squirl, in which they find our Harry Potter books in the Harry Potter universe and decide to read them. In the fanfiction, they specifically notice it when Ron says "He said he did" about Lockheart.

[@oliviathemoon]

to everyone saying that ron just has strong intuition, i think that’s a key part of being a seer, no? he makes decisions and predictions that aren’t necessarily rooted in logic but still end up being true. i think harry potter is a universe where intuition actually is magical-especially when following that intuition leads the characters to continuously enact the prophecy.

[@forestgrump4723]

I think you’re right because that’s how Felix Felicis works. It just kinda gives you intuition about what to do in every situation for the best possible outcome. It’s like it makes you a perfect see’er for the length of the potion. It’s not really making you lucky, it’s nudging you towards the best possible outcome through intuition. “I just feel like Hagrid is… the place to be tonight.”

[@captainspaulding5963]

There's a pretty substantial difference between having "good intuition" and actually actively seeing/predicting the future

[@zeroxavion]

Actually really like this as it adds even more to the intuition/world smarts Ron has shown time and time again, the homework predictions feel a bit iffy, but the rest as both foreshadowing and for this theory feel really solid

[@katryd9295]

I think one of my most favorite and telling moments of Seer Ron is when he’s looking at tea leaves and tells Harry that he’s going to suffer, but be happy about it. Which is true because in the seventh book, he ends up dying i.e. suffering but ultimately happy because Voldemort is defeated, he gets to see Dumbledore again, and he comes back to life.

[@bookworm3005]

[@nollaigburke7982]

One thing that always confused me about Fantastic Beasts was that Newt was expelled from Hogwarts,I think it was for "endangering other students" but that's very vague,but what confuses me more is he has a wand and can legally perform magic??? Hagrids wand was snapped and 2,sure he has his famous pink umbrella but he isn't legally aloud to use it,so why is Newt aloud to use his wand and why is it still intacted???

[@soraprince5336]

Allowed* You can just... buy a new wand, couldn't you..?

[@nollaigburke7982]

@@soraprince5336 I'm pretty sure its implied if your expelled,thats it. Otherwise whats the point of snapping them in half

[@MulanBelle]

Hagrid was underage and hadn't done his OWLs yet. That's why he's not allowed to do magic. Newt, on the other hand, was expelled after having done his OWLs, which is the minimum needed to be a qualified witch/wizard.

[@JessicaClark-lq4gw]

Maybe it's the "crime" committed of the year they were expelled. Murder is obviously a more serious crime than endangerment. Also Hagrid was expelled in 3rd year. Before he took his OWLS. Perhaps Newt was expelled in 6th or 7th year. After his OWLS but before his NEWTS. Fred and George leave school without their NEWTS and even say that they have their OWLS and don't need NEWTS.

[@doumeec5757]

I think I remember them addressing it in the movie : Grindelwald (as Graves) says when he's interrogating Newt that Dumbledore spoke for him at his trial, and got him the privilege to keep his wand. Knowing Dumbledore and how he defended Hagrid and got him a job at hogwarts, that's quite propable, and I think Hagrid's harsher treatment essentially came down to the fact that he's half-giant, while Newt comes from a well-known wizard family. The ministry's prejudices must have made it harder for Dumbledore to defend Hagrid than Newt 🤔 At least that's what suppose ^^

[@MrBigbrother93]

Hey guys, greetings from Germany! I had a nice idea for a kind of game to play with you guys. Cat reads to you a random passage from one of the books, something of the "Normal daily Hogwarts-Life", classes, Quidditch s.o., your job is to find out, from which book this sequence is You see a whiteboard with 3-4 possible answers, a chaper name with the book title and a timer. The longer Cat reads, the fewer points you can make, if you get the right answer - but if you answer too quickly, you eliminate an answers for your oppoment, who has to guess for half of the remaining points I think, this would be something nice and fresh and faar more challeninging, than you might think

I wonder if Tom Riddle was specifically aiming to kill Murtle that day (as opposed to any random muggle-born). I mean, she may have just been in the wrong place at the wrong time and Tom decided, "Oh, there's a right here, get her!"

[@dawnmcauley6411]

I side with the Carlins on this one: he didn't intend to kill *anyone,* Murtle died because she was a witness to Tom opening the chamber. While he loved his supposed destiny, he loved Hogworts more. Killing a Hogworts student would shut down the school (and nearly did.) His framing of Hagrid was to protect the school not himself.

[@Idiot4481]

M word say it Mudblood, MUDBLOOD

I think they clarified he only killed her cause she caught him opening the chamber, I don’t think he was *planning* on killing anyone, I reckon he was just gonna let the Basilisk keep going until he finally got someone

@@captainspaulding5963 He didn't love in the sense of wanting the actual best for it, yes. He did however love in the same sense that Harry did, it was his home. That is actually an unambiguous commonality between them. That's what I mean by "love," it's something that was more important then anything else for him, even his 'destiny.' He *stopped* opening the chamber after killing Murtle, she was the only muggle-born he 'purified' from the school.
