When Hagrid stepped out of his hut to teach the lesson, his class had completely vanished and Manny the Manticore gave a surprisingly loud belch.

Hagrid during an interview on Harry
Hagrid: I never, in a million years, pictured Harry doin’ what he’s doin’ now. I must blame myself for all of this…
Rita: You blame yourself for Harry becoming the next Dark Lord?
Hagrid: *Breaks down crying* I never supported him! All that trouble I put him through…with Norbert, and Grawp, and my talking disorder – I was always saying things I shouldn’t’ve! *Runs away crying*
Rita: *Turns to the camera smiling* And there you have it, a confession from Rubeus Hagrid himself. We can only hope that Harry realizes how naughty he’s being. Next week, we talk with the Weasleys – were they friends, or foes? Find out here! This is Rita Skeeter, digging the dirt you love to sniff, signing out.
-Sky
Hagrid: And over here we have a cozy hut. It contains one bedroom, one bathroom, and a kitchen. It’s a real beaut, it is. We’ll start the bidding at oh, say 10 pounds! Any takers?
Audience: … *Sound of grasshoppers*

Hmm, I’m glad I’m over 15 so I don’t need parental permission… A love for reading: *Thinks back to learning about Norbert* Check! Ability to work with people: Well, my giant blood gives me that! Check check! *Applies*’
