Title: Ch 17 Boris and Natasha and an Angry Kreacher
This was a very good chapter.
There is one problem I have with Ginny's, apparent , problem with muggle items. She did study muggle studies at Hogwarts for a few years. If she was such a good student, wouldn't she know about mobiles and the such. She wouldn't be so ...'muggle illiterate'.
Author's Response: From what we know about Arthur, his fascination with Muggles and his limited knowledge of modern Muggle life despite studying it, I am curious just what they do teach in Muggle studies at Hogwarts.
History? How modern? Just the differences between Muggles and the Magi, with an emphasis on how much better the Magi are?
Besides, cell phones (or mobiles in Britain) were reasonably recent, not something that Arthur would know about. So even if Muggle studies was up to the mid-seventies they might not have any
information on mobiles and laptop computers and the like.
Thank you for the review.
