very early foreshadowing...

[surf_diva]

I'm watching the 1st Harry Potter movie right now, and the Hogwarts Express has just arrived at Hogwarts. Well, on the train Ron demonstrates (or tries to) the spell that Fred and George taught him for Scabbers, but it doesn't works. "sunshine, daisies, butter, mellow, turn this stupid fat rat yellow!"
But scabbers isn't a rat....is the spell fake, or the rat?

(btw I'd heard this somewhere before, but it's been a while since I thought about it.)

good reading, makes me think Ron's more able than I thought he was.

Cool, I never thought/realized that.

However, in book 3, isn't there a part in hte Shrieking Shack where Lupin and Sirius perform a test to see if Scabbers is a rat or not? They said that if he was a rat then it wouldn't hurt him, but if he was Peter then they'd be able to find out. But he was a rat when they performed the spell, but it affected him. I think that spells intended for certain animals wouldn't work for an Animagus.

instead of dancing alone -

that is a good point. ^^
i think it was just a faulty spell though.
sort of like "hocus pocus".
because it rhymes, we think it should be a spell. :b the little poem that fred and george gave ron rhymed and all, but was not like any other spell we see in the series. -shrugs-

- i should be dancing with you

i realized it. Then I figured it out. It really is a real spell, but Scabbers isn't a real rat.
