She said 1/3rd of her magic was based on real historical belief.

I'm still waiting for you to identify the real occultic "practices and rituals" in HP (you did offer to do it, after all). Given all this time, I thought your extensive knowledge of the occult and your ability to block copy other people's websites would have made this an easy task.

And the context of that “real” magic (remember she put quotes around it) was “real” mythic and folkloric magic. You really need to brush up on your sentence diagramming.

I am way late to this particular party but I am ROFL-ing at your post.

There are a number of characters from dysfunctional family backgrounds.

Hermione, whose parents were dentists.

Yeah, you've gotta watch out for those dentists!

HP books make light fun of several muggle professions. One Weasley relative is an accountant.

Hermione says she won’t go into law because she wants to do something useful.
