Backdated to July 30th because I fail and keeping track of the current date

Has anyone else have people show up in Mayfield from... really far before them? All these people keep showing up that are about my parents' age, but here they're barely older than I am. I'm... really not sure what to do about it.

[Action: Around Mayfield]

[Neville really is just trying to go about his business, but it seems the drones just won't leave him be today.]

Happy birthday, Neville!

Uh... thanks?

[Person I don't actually know...]

[Action: In front of 1486 Kramden]

[And how is Neville spending his birthday? Tending his garden, of course.]

[Phone B]

So, uh... could someone explain to me why all the drones keep asking me if I'm going to get my license now?

So they are magical nobility. [Caesar doesn't think those matter very much, either.] I'm going to take an educated guess and say Granger wasn't one of those. Am I right?

[infourbooks]

She's Muggleborn. Some of the Pureblood families don't think they're proper wizards. Even though she's the cleverest witch in my year.

[commentboxtroll]

And Muggle means normal people. Right. [Cleverest witch in her--] People actually say that about her? No wonder she thought she knew everything!

[infourbooks]

Well... she is. Sometimes I wonder why she isn't in Ravenclaw instead.

[commentboxtroll]

She would have bruised all their delicate knowledgeable egos, obviously.

[infourbooks]

I guess it makes about as much sense as anything the Sorting Hat does...

[commentboxtroll]

You guys really are sorted by a hat?

[Of all the things he would assume is a joke, it'd have to be that one.]

[infourbooks]

A very stubborn hat.

[Oh that argument...]
