Ron and Hermione pointed their wands at it too, so that the little golden cup sparkled in a three-way spotlight: the cup that had belonged to Helga Hufflepuff, which had passed into the possession of Hepzibah Smith, from whom it had been stolen by Tom Riddle.

Deathly Hallows, Ch. 26

Does Hepzibah Smith have any relation to Zacharias Smith? In the Muggle World, Smith is a ridiculously common name, but we’ve only ever met two wizarding Smiths, and they are both prominent Hufflepuffs. If it’s true, it would make Zacharias a distant descendant of Helga Hufflepuff.

(via dailypottermeta)

That’s a sad thought. Zacharias “Douche-bag” Smith being a descendant of one of the nicest people in the HP mythology. 

What would a Hufflepuff road trip be like?

  • The best smores 
  • Making new friends everywhere 
  • Building sandcastles 
  • Taking beautiful candid photos of your friends
  • The only thing that shines brighter than the sun is your disposition
  • Enjoying the simple things like the sun on your skin, stopping to smell the flowers, and sand between your toes
  • Curling up under a blanket in the backseat 
  • Making sure your friends wear sunscreen and drink enough water
  • Carefully pressing flowers into a book
  • Walking along the seafront, holding hands 
  • Collecting seashells
  • Waking up early to enjoy the sunrise with your closest friends

Ok this is gonna sound Aweful and stupid probably but I REFUSE to buy gryffindor ANYTHING. Not because I hate the house (and I’m a slytherin anyways) but simply because I cannot stand the color. It looks terrible come on no one looks good in that color not even me. Harry would have even looked stunning in slytherin green. The red kills vibes.

Lol I totally get that. Imma Gryffindor and I hate the colors too. For one I’m not a major fan of red and definitely not a fan of yellow (my favorite color is blue actually), but also ita the colors of one of the teams I hate the most in the NFL: The Redskins……lol

Still, I buy my house’s merch tho lol.

You think you’ve got problems. Try finding Ravenclaw merch that knows what color “bronze” is. Everything official uses the stupid movie colors, and everywhere else the consensus is “bronze=orange.”

I’m starting to think us Hufflepuffs have an easier time with merch. We might have less of it compared to everyone-else (except Ravenclaws) but it’s in the same two colours all the time. Kind-of difficult to get black-and-yellow wrong.
