Do you know who doesn’t get enough love from the Harry Potter fandom?

Madam Poppy BAMF Poppy

• Escorted a teenage werewolf to a deadly tree each month.

• Took care of that teenage werewolf after every full moon and you know that she probably fussed over him and mothered him and gave him a bunch of chocolate.

• Literally didn’t question things.

• This boy has a bite that’s turning green and he says is from a dog? Okay.

• This girl is half-cat? Alright

• Had to put up with Harry’s excessive injuries each year.

• Took care of and cured a bunch of petrified students.

• Didn’t put up with Malfoy’s crap.

• LITERALLY YELLED AT DUMBLEDORE!

• YELLED AT THE MINISTER OF MAGIC!

• KICKED DUMBLEDORE AND THE MINISTER OF MAGIC OUT!!!

• Was the one who took care of Cedric Diggory’s corpse.

• Refused to resign under Umbridge’s regime because she was afraid of what would happen to the students.

• Took care of everyone during the battle in HBP.

• Fought in the Battle of Hogwarts and tended to the wounded/dead.

• Probably had to deal with hundreds of students who misused the Engorgio Charm.

Madam Pomfrey deserves your love and respect.

For real though, the “Literally didn’t question things“ created a safe space and environment where students weren’t afraid to go to her in their time of need. 

if she questioned and reported everything, they wouldn’t have gone to her when Ron got bit or Hermione turned in to a cat. They would try to deal with it themselves or at the very least go to her after irreversible damage has occurred.

Imagine you’re a 7th-year girl having missed your period and knowing there is an adult in that school who won’t judge, that will sit next to you and hold your hand while you wait for whatever magical pregnancy test there is. If it’s negative, she’ll show you how to prevent a scare like that, if it’s positive, you know you have an ally in that eventual meeting with your parents, (If you decided to go that route, because she will ask you if you want her to contact your parents, or if you would rather tell them on your own time)

Or imagine being a 6th-year girl who thinks they’re ready to take the next step with your boyfriend and you know there is a place you can go to ask for birth control without having to explain or endure a lecture.

Or you’re a 6th-year boy whos confused, losing sleep and your appetite so decided that medical enough to go to the hospital wing. You present those symptoms first, waiting for her to ask when did it start, knowing she won’t mind or care that it isn’t a medical issue at all. So you sit there and talk through how you still have a thing for your ex-girlfriend, who just started dating your roommate, and how it should bother you more but it doesn’t because you think you might be in love with your other roommate and best friend.

Or your another 6th-year boy, no medical issues to present, you just sit in front of her and start talking about how you’re a horrible person because you’re secretly happy your best friend’s ex started dating one of your roommates. You noticed he isn’t eating or sleeping as much as he should and you hate that what’s making you happy is what’s making him miserable and you don’t know how to deal with that. Or how to deal with the fact that you’re in love with him, and you’re pretty sure you’re one potion class away from a mental breakdown.

Madam Pomfrey was more than the school nurse, she was the student’s sanity.

And Bridget Jones’s mother.

Did anyone-else notice @pynki‘s references to Dean x Seamus?

Also I heard she is a fireball in bed.

You know, @barmy-owl, not everything has to be about doing the nasty…
