Brandon paddles out into Theory Bay on a driftwood log he found on the
shore
to introduce his first theory.
*Hi, brandon! I'm Betty, and I've never been out in this bay before; I
don't speculate much; I just wait for the mistress of the Potterverse.
anyway...
Brandon again:
I was watching the movie when an interesting thought crossed my mind.
What
if the reason that Mr. & Mrs. Evans were so proud of Lily's magical
ability
is because their lack of magic wasn't from being Muggles but because
they're
Squibs and therefore Lily was the closest they would ever get to doing
magic
themselves.
*Maybe, but then that would require Hagrid being ignorant of one of his
presumed best friends' magical history.
SS Ch. 4.
"Now, yer mum an' dad were as good a witch an' wizardas I ever knew.
"... "...But it's that sad--knew yer mum an' dad, 'n nicer people yeh
couldn't find-- ..." So we've at least established that Hagrid and the
Potters must have been friends.
Ch. 5. "Yer _not_ from a Muggle family. If he'd known who yeh
_were_--he's grown up knowin' yer name if his parents are wizardin'
folk. YOu saw what everyone in the aleaky Cauldron was like when they
saw yeh. Anyway, what does he know about it, some o' best I ever saw
were the only ones with magic in 'em in a long line o' Muggles--look at
yer mum! Look what she had for a sister!"
Thsu seems to say to me that Lily came from a line of Muggles.
Just my two knuts.
Betty
P.S. Could I get an acronym for this theory?
