Ever wished the HP characters could answer all your questions? What happened to Voldemort's nose? Does Snape really Shampoo? Well now you can! Finally you can ask the characters themselves all of your questions and at last have your answers!

39. Detention Count

Sirius and James,

Star because Sirius (the star) is the dogstar. Combine the two and you get Wolfstar. Personally I don't support the pairing, but oh well. Anyway, how many detentions did you guys get and who had the most? Did the Weasley twins beat you? What about the Prewitt twins?

Dear Hufflepuff Graduate of 1974,

Ah now I understood. Anyway detentions… Well I think in total I had 192 detentions, James only had 191, he and Lily were on a date in our 7th year in Hogsmead when Wormtail and I jinxed a snowman to come to life and throw snowballs at Snape. Remus didn't get nearly as many as us, he always avoided trouble and tried to make us do the same, I think Wormtail ended up with about 100 over the 7 years, but he received loads from poor work or work that was never handed in, not always due to our pranks. As for the Weasleys and Prewetts, I once asked the twins how many detentions they'd had when they were at the order, I think Fred claimed they'd had 198, I can only imagine how many they'd have ended up with if they'd stayed until the end of their final year, and the Prewetts, no idea.

Dear Hufflepuff Graduate of 1974,

191 I think, though Sirius got one more than me. Remus I think ended up with only 30, probably less, he only really got in trouble with us for 1st and 2nd year, and was punished for it, he ended up as a prefect after all, and Wormtail, well he followed us everywhere and got into trouble a lot with us, but James and I also did loads on our own so he fell quite short of our final as well, I think he was in about 80 of our detentions, the rest he was in on his own, not that we were all together when we did get a detention for the same thing, not since the first time… Mcgonagall put all three of us in detention cleaning the trophy room with Filch supervising, we ended up covered in more polish that the trophies. Funny really, we got another detention due to our detention.

As for the others, I'm pretty sure the Weasleys beat us, which isn't too surprising, the Prewetts didn't have nearly as many as us though, I think they ended up around the 100 mark, but from what I heard, they were simply never caught by the teacher even though they did just as many pranks, Sirius and I found getting caught as part of the fun sometimes though.
