The Butterbeer Experience - The Peverell Story

[@anemated20]

the third brother was the only one who still bowed to Death, he remembered who truly had the power and was humble about it

[@stephaniepage4334]

I agreed

[@alonsogormaz6423]

That’s why they left this World as equals

[@samanthaglazer]

"Death's got an invisibility cloak?" "Well, he got tired of running after people, flapping his arms."

[@brianburke4756]

lol, might be time to get a new job, right? lol

[@archibaldl4039]

“Shrieking.”

[@Cheeseanonioncrisps]

The story is similar to 'The Pardoner's Tale' a traditional story from the middle ages that was included in the 'Canterbury Tales'. In the story three men escape from a plague-ridden village and take shelter in an Inn. They curse death for destroying their village and taking so many of their friends- and they swear they would make him pay if they only knew where to find him. An old man hears them and asks them if they want to know how to find death, he then tells them, Death is hiding under an old oak tree. They visit the oak tree and start digging and they find a chest full of gold. They decide that they will share the gold equally- and send the youngest of them off to get wine and bread. But the youngest one wants all the money for himself- so he adds poison to the wine. When he gets back the other two leap on him and stab him to death- figuring they can split his share. Before they start sharing the gold they decide to have a glass of wine... And so all three men met Death.

+Cheeseanonioncrisps Damn...that's dark

[@cernunnosofthetenthseat8088]

Under the tree, the old man wasn't lying.

[@greentea1969]

Oh god... That escalated quickly so quickly...

[@DownWithDC]

Bitch I didn't ask for yo sob story now we're dem ghost pokemans at You might not get that reference

[@darksev.6468]

I can't see the rest of the comment god fucking damn it.

[@marijesalverda5012]

This song is absolutely wonderful. God, I swear I get shivers every freaking time she bids goodbye to one of the brother. I'm totally listening to this for as long as I can

[@phousefilms]

Same.

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

I kinda love the IRONY that those who inherited the hallows in the end were completely opposite to their uses. Harry, who is courageous and bold, leaping into a fight, ended up with the cloak to hide and escape. Dumbledore, the pacifist and gentle wizard who prefers to always avoid unnecessary combat and even so, lethal blows, ended up with the most powerful weapon, and Voldemort, who is terribly fraid of dying and wants to reject his past at all cost, ended up with the stone to bring ghosts of his past. Tell me this isn't a perfect match :D?

[@klodpraisor]

I remember a saying that Voldemort died for power, Snape died for love, and Harry embraced death.

[@MrKlausbaudelaire]

yes, but the Stone belonged to Voldemort's Grandfather, passed down from generation to generation because Voldemort is actualy related to the Peverel. So by heritage, the ring is his. Same goes for Harry, the elder wand was the only not passed by heritage, but being stolen from owner to owner.

[@summertucker8331]

MrKlausbaudelaire I like your name I've read all of the books

[@AriAri-vs6we]

Yeah, that's another good interpretation, along with the one matching the three brothers with Voldemort, Snape and Harry respectively

[@rebekahcyphus2364]

Don't forget the cloak as it was passed from father to son.

[@alyssasmith2838]

Each of the Hollows is related to immortality at some level. The Elder Wand makes it user in invincible in magic duels unless overpowered by an opponent, The Stone was created because Cadmus wanted to revive the dead, and Ignotus removed himself from death's list until he chose to put himself back on it.

[@m.b.portnoy2350]

This... was exactly what the tale of the three brothers deserved. Beautiful, yet haunting. Alluring and frightening. Both sides of the coin. Wonderful.

[@lenyy101]

You are so right

[@missfox5830]

I never really noticed how gruesome this story was. I mean I read it multiple times but it's really only since watching this video did I realise just HOW gruesome it is. You can literally see (if you really concentrate) the point were the second brother kicks the chair out from under him to hang himself.

[@lee6228]

I know :/

[@spaghetii5337]

Damn.

[@dragonsoul123]

The story is incredibly dark. Then again. Ever since book three (dementors...) it is getting darker and dsrker. And I dig it! Still, the ritual to create a horcrux was seemingly too dark and gruesome to publish. Do I even want to know...?

[@sciranger6703]

Look at the son's height in proportion to Ignatius handing him the cloak. He left behind a young child.

[@TheRedEnglishRose]

I love how the one who wanted power begged, the one who wanted magic cried and the one who wanted peace just says.

[@pwebes]

midnight, mom always said midnight.

[@DownWithDC]

pwebes Ron!

[@aidanbenson1356]

pwebes Twilight is good too. Better even.

[@annakratochvilova7924]

Ron does NOT like Twilight. He knew somethink.

[@GokkanZuzu]

*ball shriveling ice cold stare*

[@bensonfang1868]

If only James was there to tell the story to Harry as little boy and end the story like. "And the third brother's son however, had no sons of his own, only a daughter named Ioanthe. She would grow up to be a beautiful woman and later married a young potion maker named Potter"

[@savannahfunk5044]

God l love this sooooo much!!!! Her voice just draws you into the story.

[@royalseal734]

Hit me like a truck. This brought me straight back to my HP phase

[@cellimakesmusic]

Ja man brudiiii

[@joiedumonde]

Still one of my fav Potter vids. So beautiful and haunting. I loved the animation sequence in DH, and you've made it even better by putting it with this song.

[@aymankabir6482]

Lyrics: The Peverell Story Once happened to cross fair brothers tree Who thought they could use all their magic to thwart me But I, being Death, being sly blocked their path And said, 'Brave, cunning brothers, oh, what do you asked, I will give each a prize and let brothers pass.' The first brother begged, 'Please, Death, make me a tool One that will win every fight, every duel.' So I broke branch off of an elder tree And I fashioned the wand for he thought he was worthy And give elder wand to the eldest of tree Go, Brother, I bid thee good night I promised you'll win all your battles and fights But your wand will be stolen and you will be slain And you and I will meet again The next brother cried, 'Give me magic instead The power to bring others back from the death.' So I picked up a stone from the riverside And I told him the pebble had magic inside It will bring back the death and his departed bride Go, Brother, I bid thee good night You'll see your love soon but things will not be right You'll drive yourself crazy for she won't be whole And then I will claim your soul The youngest brother said, 'Death, I don't trust your ways Please, leave me alone till the end of my days.' And though I was reluctant, he was the wisest of the three So I gave him my cloak of invisibility And I let the young brother go free Go, Brother, I bid thee goodnight Go take your new cloak and go live out your life Be happy and healthy, and when you are ready You can take off your cloak and join me And that is the story of The Peverell Brothers They each made their choice, one wiser than others They stripped me of the wand, and of cloak, and of stone And I bade young Ignotus be selfless and roam And many years passed till he call me his home But I took the other two for my own.

[@v3nus523]

On the fourth paragraph the word should be "Dead" not "Death"

[@LauRoman]

This is what the story should be like, very Grimm.

[@brookerox12346]

I'm documenting this now... This is the first song of the Butterbeer Experience I've ever heard.. And I'm in love... So........ OMG< THIS IS AMAZING!!

[@flammeteru]

The song together with the video is beautiful. The song itself is haunting and magical -- it sent chills down my spine.

[@charlinethom8449]

Death = Albus Dumbledore First Brother = Lord Voldemord Second Brother = Severus Snape Third Brother = Harry Potter

[@-littlestar-8072]

Could be true

[@norell791]

You should say Tom Marvolo Riddle

[@beckyjade7]

Why have I only just heard this!? Such a beautiful song!

[@mrtyrant1680]

"Open up..." Alistair Peverell was currently sitting down on his bed inside the Hospital Wing, waiting for Madam Pomfrey to arrive in order to examine him one last time before finally releasing him from the hospital wing. He awaited her arrival while at the company of his Ravenclaw friends, Xenophilius and Pandora. They were sitting on the bed where Alistair was laying on top of it, taking turns on spoon-feeding him Cherry Ice cream. So good... Alistair thought as he felt the taste on his mouth. "Do you have any more detention?" He asked Xenophilius as he put a spoonful of ice cream on his mouth. "No, my last detention was yesterday." His candyfloss textured haired friend replied. "Though I do believe that Professor Slughorn only released me in order to hide his secret stash of illicit potions for recreational purposes." Xeno told him his latest conspiracy theories. "Recreational purposes?" As always, Alistair just went along with it because they were too fun to ignore. "Think about it, some of the members of the Slug Club are always in such a happy mood, even the ones that are exceptionally in a bad mood all the time." Xeno presented his crazy theory, and Alistair mostly laughed it off. "Xeno, I would have noticed if he was using some type of "recreational" potion on the students." He pointed out as Pandora spoon-feed him next. "That's what I said." Pandora added. "But that's the thing, how would you know?" Xeno decided to add as well before he fed him the last piece of the ice cream . Before Alistair could give him a counter argument. Madam Pomfrey finally arrived at the Hospital Wing. "Hello, you three." She greeted them as she approached the bed. The three waved at her and Xeno and Pandora immediately stood up from the bed to give her space to examine Alistair. "How are feeling today, Mr. Peverell?" She asked as she inspected his torso. "Well, most of the pain is gone except for my hand which still hurts a bit." He informed the Matron. "But other than that, I'm good to go." "Your hand is going to take a few more days to be completely healed." She informed him, before she handed him one last potion for him to consume. The blond boy drank the potion, which tasted sweet. Not bad... "You're free to return to your usual activities," Madam Pomfrey told him before inspecting his hand. "But take it easy with that hand, as the damage on it was pretty severe." The damage in everything was severe to be honest. He thought in response to what she said. "I will..." But that was his solo reply. "Alright then," Madam Pomfrey then went to grab something up from the small cabinet next to the bed to retrieve something from it. "Ms. Evans was kind enough to have your uniform washed and brought here herself for your release." She informed the blond boy of it. "Oh... Really?" The blond boy asked with Madam Pomfrey nodding in confirmation. I mean... She is my girlfriend now so... Almost a week ago, Lily Evans revealed to him that he was the boy that she fancied and Alistair after receiving that information, completely reevaluated what his feelings were on the matter. Which turned out to be, that he felt the same way about Lily, so the two officially became a couple as a result. There was only one problem, which was the thing that Alistair was aiming to avoid after finding out that Lily fancied someone, but he has absolutely no idea on how to avoid it for himself. "Mr. Peverell, don't take this the wrong way but... Try to stay out of the Hospital Wing from now on." She requested him. Alistair just chuckled in response. "I'll try." With that, Madam Pomfrey left the trio alone. Alistair stood up from the bed and Pandora closed the privacy screen for him to get dressed. "Are you going to class?" Pandora asked him as he took off the outfit he was wearing. "Yes, the Transfiguration class is twenty-minutes." Alistair spoke as he put on his uniform's trousers. "They said I could take the day off, but I really want to go back to class." He informed his friends. "It could be a side effect of the illicit potions, making you so eager to go back to class." Xeno started to go at it once again, which Alistair just rolled his eyes in response. "Or maybe, because I have nothing else to do and all of my other friends are there." Alistair gave him his counter-argument. "Speaking of which, we have History of Magic in fifteen minutes." Pandora told her boyfriend as she awaited Alistair to finish dressing up. "But sometimes I get the feeling that what we're being told is not really what happened." "Bloody hell, don't you start with the conspiracy theories as well Pandora." The blond boy immediately complained as he put on his shoes on. "Besides, it's obvious it didn't happen precisely as he said , but the vast majority was documented by people that were indeed there." He gave an argument to Pandora. "But, some of it could be lies." She added to him as she creeped her head above the screen. "Some of it is definitely lies." Alistair agreed with her on that. "Some people usually write their own story in order to make it look better that it actually was." The blond boy then proceeded to button-up his shirt but he was having difficulty due to his hand. Pandora immediately noticed and opened the screen and approached him before she buttoned his shirt for him. "Thanks." He told her. "You're welcome." She then fixed Alistair's hair which was messy to the point of looking like James's hair. "Here." Xeno grabbed a brush that belonged to Alistair and helped his girlfriend brush their friend's hair. Soon enough, Alistair' medium-length blond hair was perfectly brushed back as it should be. "Thanks friends." He immediately grabbed his eccentric friends into a hug, which they immediately returned. "We´re very glad to see you up again." Xeno told him as he hugged him tightly. "And we would be very happy if you followed Madam Pomfrey's advice." Pandora added as she hugged him tightly. Alistair just smiled at them before he separated from the hug, then he picked up his sweater, tie and robe and put it on. "I'll start following her advice by getting out of here." xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx "Hey!" The moment that Alistair Lancelot Peverell stepped inside the classroom, he had a reception that he was absolutely not expecting. Which was basically every single Gryffindor inside the class rising from their seats and approaching him to greet him. Though, his friends were the loudest. "There he is!" Sirius yelled happily before grabbing him into a hug and lifting him off the floor. "Alistair Peverell, up and running again!" "It's so good to see you standing." Remus was the second one to grab him into a hug as soon as Sirius put him down. Peter also gave him a hug. "Hey..." James was the last one to hug him, but he was the one that gave him the tightest hug. "I would hex those bastards if they were still here." It was Alice's sole response before she also hugged him. Once everyone was done greeting the Peverell boy, there were two people that didn't approached him. Standing in the middle of the classroom, there was two people that Alistair was looking forward to seeing, which was Mary Macdonald and Lily Evans. Lily seemed to be encouraging Mary to do or say something to him but she seemed reluctant. Wait, does she... It only took a few seconds for him to figure out what was wrong. "Hey," Alistair responded by touching her shoulders before speaking. "Don't blame yourself for what happened, I have absolutely no regrets and would do it again in a heartbeat." It was truth, though, if he could go back, he would have definitely been more careful to avoid his injuries but the sentiment still the same. Mary still looks a little upset, but she gave him a hug after he said. "I'm so glad you're okay..." "Me too..." He replied as he returned the hug. Once the two separated from their hug, there was only one person left for him to hug. But he clearly didn't have to as the red headed wasted no second in enveloping the blond boy into a bone breaking hug in front of everyone. Alistair returned the hug instantly and the two stood like, making the longest hug so far. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... "Everyone take your seats please." Before anyone could question why they were hugging each other for so long, Professor McGonagall entered the classroom and ordered the Gryffindors to sit down. Before Alistair could separate from Lily however, she whispered something on his ear. "Meet me at the Owlery after class." She separated from him afterwards and went take her seat next to Mary. "Mr. Peverell, I'm glad to see you recovered." Professor McGonagall spoke as soon as she closed the distance. "Me too." Alistair replied. "Thanks for the material that you sent in order for me to not stay behind in class." Remus delivered some of the classes assignments for him. "It was no problem, you're one of my best students and it would be a shame if you're studies got compromised because of those two." Professor McGonagall spoke with quite a lot of disgust on her voice over the subject of Mulciber and Avery. "I don't know if you were informed, but they were expelled three days ago." "Yes, Remus told me." Alistair was aware of it. "Through, I assume a considerable amount of their Housemates were not exactly pleased with their departure." A lot of the students at Slytherin probably saw that as a Blood-Traitor defending a Mudblood and getting two "respectful" Pure-Blood Wizards expelled. "Your assumption is correct, and if you have any trouble from any member of Slytherin, don't hesitate to inform about it." The Professor instructed him. "Now, take your seat." Alistair just nodded before moving to take his seat next to Remus.

[@rienhoog2013]

The first brother wanted power, ambition is a Slytherin trait. The 2nd brother asked for the power to raise the death. Not for power but to bring back his wife. Which shows great loyalty and indicates a Hufflepuff. The elder brother was smart enough to think that death might trick him. He then was smart enough to hide. Until finally he learned not to be scared of death anymore. Thus i would say the third brother is a Ravenclaw.

[@lilly_731]

+AshleeTheSimstress Selflessness is a Hufflepuff trait

[@kasiajohnson7480]

+Lilly Cassidy That might be true, but I agree with Ashlee TheSimstress. He may have traits of a Hufflepuff, but for some reason I wanna say he was a Gryffindor

[@cernunnosofthetenthseat8088]

The eldest brother wanted all the power, agreed, a Slytherin trait. But the second brother, in "the Tales of Beedle the Bard" it said "The second brother, wanting to humiliate death further," so, from that, we can say the second brother was to prideful, a typical Slytherin trait. And the third brother was brave enough to be humble in his victory over death, I'd say, a Gryffindor trait.

[@MsSheerAwesomeness]

+Saphire Swan Pride is not a Slytherin trait.

[@cernunnosofthetenthseat8088]

MsSheerAwesomeness not pride, to much pride, a lack humility, an arrogance, IS a, typical, Slytherin trait.
