Re: Harry/Ron/Hermione/Draco
So I'm adding Draco and Padma to this because they are good with weird magic and I don't want to have this conversation twice.
Things we know: 1) There was a prophecy about the end of the world and Hermione knew about it. 2) According to the papers, there were experiments to increase pregnancies. 3) According to all the younger ones, there were plenty of legal spells experimented through the world, including some cocoon spell in Germany that allowed gay couples to have kids, making new spells utterly unnecessary.
Things I'm thinking about. 1) Hermione would never keep that prophecy to herself. It was too big and even she couldn't do it alone. 2) We got the DA involved. It would work with Padma making a public scene and quitting, because is she really the one to make a scene? And who better than to help with this research? 3) There were rumours that the old generations of all lineages were upset. What if they joined forces? What if their spells, whether clones or forced pregnancies, are the ones who got out of hand and we tried to come up with spells to bring society back? 4) Pure conjecture, but if we created the spell, maybe we planned to bring us back in our 'older age'. If things had to be rushed because Hermione and Padma were dying, then the spell might have not been finished. Or the magic at Hogwarts morphed it.
Yes, I know all of this are hunches, BUT all the clues until now are tailor made for me. As Jamie said, either we are the worst at creating clues for people or we created the clues for us.
