15. Whatever tickles your fancy

So guys. What are your favourite spells? What would you absolutely love to be able to do?

Mine:

Accio. Damn. I might never move again if I could cast this spell. How awesome would it be?

Apparition/Floo/Portkey. No traffic, ever again! Being able to visit my friends overseas for the day/weekend! I imagine that in the WW, international floo/portkey would cost, just like things do in thr Muggle world, but in my fantasy, at least, it wouldn't be nearly as expensive as goddam international plane flights. And it would be instant! Yay!

Animagi. Dude, how awesome are animagi? How fun would it be to be able to turn into an animal? I mean, some people must go to all that effort to become one only to be something crap (seriously, would you even consider registering if your animagus form was, like, a snail?) I think I like Minerva's form best. I mean, cats are small and sneaky, but they're also not anywhere near as vulnerable as, say, beetles. Best of both worlds, being a cat. Because you can imagine, say, when James Potter discovered what his form was, he would have been all 'hmm, well, this is inconspicuous...', and I can totally see why Rita wouldn't want to register, because it's one thing to be a beetle that's just a beetle, and another entirely to have people know that they could quite literally crush you. I also don't imagine she could stay in her form for terribly long, because a mammal is one thing, but turning into an invertebrate? I mean, they don't even have lungs.

I'm totally behind Snape being a Puffin animagus, btw. The nose!

Well, you can have Accio and the travel options.
I'd like being a cat, sometimes. Seeing them purr, it makes you think it really must be a pleasant existence. And you'd have a human to serve you.
But what I'd want most of all is the spell Hermione uses to shrink all those books so that they fit in an evening bag. It would solve so much of the shelving problem at Spinner's End.

Snape as a puffin Animagus is perfect! Although I think he wouldn't want to be that adorable. *g*

I think I'd want to be a bird, too. Flying must be awesome.

I really cannot count the times I have been thinking of the ability to apparate (my daughter especially complains a lot about not being able to...)!
