30 Days of Harry Potter - day 9: What would your Boggart be?
I just got back from a conference in Indianapolis. This conference always happens in November, and it's always a challenge to work NaBloPoMo duties in around sessions and receptions and dinners and all the activity that conference-going infuses into my humdrum life. So yesterday morning, when I was writing my day 8 post before going to my first session, I thought, "I should read the day 9 question now, and start formulating my answer." So I read it yesterday morning, thought about it all day, thought about it as I fell asleep (fortunately I did not have boggart-infested dreams), then thought about it again on the drive home.
I'm afraid of a lot of things, but after all that thinking I can't decide which is the worst, and therefore which form my boggart would take. So instead I've decided to reframe this question as, Which character's boggart would be closest to your own? I suppose if I were to steal another book character's boggart, it would probably be Molly Weasley's, because some of the worst nightmares I've ever had were about my family members dying. But if the movies are included, my boggart would probably be whatever the hell that is that Parvati's boggart turns into. That is the ridiculous one? It is way scarier than the snake.

I haven't started it yet, but if it doesn't have Draco rolling around and Ron eating, than the first is going to be superior.

I take it back, Arthur Weasley! "Oh boy, real Muggles!"
That is terrifying.
I finally watched A Very Potter Musical. Maybe it's because it's late, but I fell over laughing at "here at Hogwarts we've got a hidden swimming pool."
