The opportunity was too perfect to miss. Harry crept silently around behind Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle, bent down, and scooped a large handful of mud out of the path.
'We were just talking about your friend Hagrid,'
Malfoy said to Ron. 'Just trying to imagine what he's saying to the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures. D'you think he'll cry when they cut off his hippogriff's—'
SPLAT.
Malfoy's head jerked back as the mud hit him; his silverblond hair was suddenly dripping in muck.

The exceptions were two men a little ahead of them, standing just outside the Three Broomsticks. One was very tall and thin; squinting through his rain-washed glasses Harry recognized the barman who worked in the other Hogsmeade pub, the Hog’s Head. As Harry, Ron, and Hermione drew closer, the barman drew his cloak more tightly around his neck and walked away, leaving the shorter man to fumble with something in his arms. They were barely feet from him when Harry realized who the man was.

He grinned up at Harry, but Harry returned the grin only reluctantly.
"What're you doing here, Sirius?" he said,
"Fulfilling my duty as godfather," said Sirius, gnawing on the chicken bone in a very dog-like way. "Don't worry about me, I'm pretending to be a loveable stray."

Kettleburn retired to Hogsmeade but was unable, due to his physical infirmities, to take part in the Battle of Hogwarts. Determined to play his part, he clambered into his attic and threw his entire stock of Flobberworms out of the skylight at passing Death Eaters. While this may not have had much effect on the outcome of the battle, it was generally felt to show the right spirit.

Neville was in total disgrace. Professor McGonagall was so furious with him she had banned him from all future Hogsmeade visits, given him a detention, and forbidden anyone to give him the password into the tower.

So, does the Hogwarts Express run year-round? Who operates it? Hogwarts? The Ministry of Magic? Do the residents of Hogsmeade get to use it? Or is it just an entire steam train (WHO MINES THE COAL?) dedicated solely to taking one hundred children to and from Hogwarts twice a year? And if that’s the case, how the fuck does the witch who runs the snack trolley pay her bills? Do wizards have bills? If they don’t, then WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT THE WEASLEYS ARE POOR?

Where exactly the Hogwarts Express came from has never been conclusively proven, although it is a fact that there are secret records at the Ministry of Magic detailing a mass operation involving one hundred and sixty-seven Memory Charms and the largest ever mass Concealment Charm performed in Britain. The morning after these alleged crimes, a gleaming scarlet steam engine and carriages astounded the villagers of Hogsmeade (who had also not realised they had a railway station), while several bemused Muggle railway workers down in Crewe spent the rest of the year grappling with the uncomfortable feeling that they had mislaid something important.

Draco,” Harry said, because the heat of the sun was on his cheeks but he couldn’t look away from Draco’s thin, tired face. He was worn down here, the way he had never been in the curse world. He looked older, all the strain of the war and disaster taken out on him. He would never be the lighthearted kid who had kissed Harry at Hogsmeade in the fresh air after the rain.
“We can’t be childhood sweethearts,” Draco said, with a sour little smile and the flicker of the Unbreakable Vow playing around his knuckles, “and we can’t have that weird, lovely life where everything was good and we always knew the right thing to do.”
Harry stared at him. High up, away from him, he was aware of the faint, rough sound of Hermione crying.
“We can have something else,” Draco said, and he held his free hand out to Harry.

Malfoy looked nervously over his shoulder again, then back at Dumbledore, who went on: “So poor Rosmerta was forced to lurk in her own bathroom and pass that necklace to any Hogwarts student who entered the room unaccompanied? And the poisoned mead . . . well, naturally, Rosmerta was able to poison it for you before she sent the bottle to Slughorn, believing that it was to be my Christmas present. . . . Yes, very neat . . . very neat . . . Poor Mr. Filch would not, of course, think to check a bottle of Rosmerta’s. Tell me, how have you been communicating with Rosmerta?

So, young Harry,’ said Fred, in an uncanny impersonation of Percy, ‘mind you behave yourself.’ ‘See you in Honeydukes,’ said George, winking. They left the room, both smirking in a satisfied sort of way. Harry stood there, gazing at the miraculous map. He watched the tiny ink Mrs Norris turn left and pause to sniff at something on the floor. If Filch really didn’t know … he wouldn’t have to pass the Dementors at all … But even as he stood there, flooded with excitement, something Harry had once heard Mr Weasley say came floating out of his memory. Never trust anything that can think for itself, if you can’t see where it keeps its brain. This map was one of those dangerous magical objects Mr Weasley had been warning against … Aids to Magical Mischief-Makers … but then, Harry reasoned, he only wanted to use it to get into Hogsmeade, it wasn’t as though he wanted to steal anything or attack anyone … and Fred and George had been using it for years without anything horrible happening … Harry traced the secret passage to Honeydukes

When Ottaline Gambol commandeered a Muggle train to serve as the new mode of transport for Hogwarts students, she also had constructed a small station in the wizarding village of Hogsmeade: a necessary adjunct to the train. The Ministry of Magic felt strongly, however, that to construct an additional wizarding station in the middle of London would stretch even the Muggles’ notorious determination not to notice magic when it was exploding in front of their faces. It was Evangeline Orpington, Minister from 1849–1855, who hit upon the solution of adding a concealed platform at the newly (Muggle) built King’s Cross station, which would be accessible only to witches and wizards. On the whole, this has worked well, although there have been minor problems over the ensuing years, such as witches and wizards who have dropped suitcases full of biting spellbooks or newt spleens all over the polished station floor, or else disappeared through the solid barrier a little too loudly. There are usually a number of plain-clothed Ministry of Magic employees on hand to deal with any inconvenient Muggle

Harry prese la lettera. Era indirizzata a lui. Strappò la busta ed esclamò: «È di Sirius!» «Cosa?» chiesero Ron e Hermione eccitati. «Leggila ad alta voce!»
Caro Harry, spero che questa lettera ti venga recapitata prima che tu arrivi dai tuoi zii. Non so se sono abituati alla posta via gufo. Io e Fierobecco siamo in clandestinità. Non ti dirò dove, nel caso che questo messaggio finisca nelle mani sbagliate. Ho qualche dubbio sull’affidabilità del gufo, ma è il migliore che ho trovato, e sembrava impaziente di affrontare la missione. Credo che i Dissennatori mi stiano ancora cercando, ma non hanno alcuna speranza di trovarmi qui dove sono. Sto progettando di farmi vedere al più presto da alcuni Babbani, molto lontano da Hogwarts, di modo che venga tolta la sorveglianza al castello. C’è una cosa che non sono riuscito a dirti nel nostro unico breve incontro. Sono stato io a mandarti la Firebolt...
«Ah!» esclamò Hermione trionfante. «Visto? Te l’avevo detto che era lui!» «Sì, ma non l’aveva affatturata, vero?» disse Ron. «Ahia!» Il gufetto, che ora tubava allegramente nella sua mano, gli aveva beccato un dito in quello che a suo parere era un gesto di affetto.
Grattastinchi ha portato l’ordine all’Ufficio Gufi per conto mio. Ho usato il tuo nome, ma ho dato disposizione di prelevare il denaro dal sotterraneo numero 711 della Gringott, il mio. Prendila come dono del tuo padrino per tutti i tuoi tredici compleanni. Voglio anche chiederti scusa per lo spavento che temo di averti fatto prendere quella notte dell’anno scorso, quando te ne sei andato dalla casa dei tuoi zii. Speravo solo di poterti vedere per un attimo prima di intraprendere il viaggio verso nord, ma credo di averti fatto paura. Accludo un’altra cosa per te, una cosa che credo renderà più piacevole il tuo prossimo anno a Hogwarts. Se hai bisogno di me, manda un messaggio. Il tuo gufo mi troverà. Ti scriverò presto. Sirius
Harry guardò con ansia dentro la busta. C’era un altro foglio di pergamena. Lo lesse in fretta e all’improvviso si sentì caldo e soddisfatto come se avesse inghiottito una bottiglia di Burrobirra bollente in un sol sorso.
Io, Sirius Black, padrino e tutore di Harry Potter, con la presente gli concedo il permesso di visitare Hogsmeade nei finesettimana.
«A Silente basterà!» disse Harry allegramente. Guardò di nuovo la lettera di Sirius. «Aspettate! C’è un poscritto...»
Ho pensato che il tuo amico Ron potrebbe essere felice di tenersi questo gufo, visto che per colpa mia non ha più un topo.

Dealing with Phineas Nigellus Black is rather like having Snape around. He is snide, waspish, and quick to take offense. But as the portrait of Armando Dippet says, portraits of former headmasters are “honor-bound to give service to the present headmaster of Hogwarts.” (HP/OotP, 473) After the first time Hermione blindfolds him, he declares he will never return, but that decision is not his to make. Through this connection, Snape learns that Harry, Ron, and Hermione are alive. In return, they learn that Dumbledore used the sword of Gryffindor to kill a Horcrux, that Dumbledore’s Army is still active, that Snape sends them to Hagrid for detentions, and that Ginny has been banned from Hogsmeade visits. Anytime Phineas Nigellus asks for hints about their location, Hermione puts the painting away, but Snape manages to get them some information and assurance that Ginny is safe.

After all the precautions put in place for Lupin’s protection as a student, after all the special treatment, Lupin still led his friends into danger, out-of-bounds, at night, and visited Hogsmeade as a werewolf. Yet when Sirius nearly got him to kill another student, nobody was expelled; there is no evidence that anyone was even punished. The only consequence we know for sure is that Snape was “forbidden by Dumbledore to tell anybody” (HP/PoA, 357) that Lupin is a werewolf. He was forbidden to speak of his terrifying experience. His near murder, and his need to work through it by talking, were considered less important than Lupin’s privacy and, perhaps, Dumbledore’s chagrin.
