PottermoreIf you don't know what your Patronus is yet, your Internet must have cut out for the entire day yesterday. In case you are late to the game, J.K. Rowling announced an amazing Patronus test on her Twitter account, and everyone lost it. It looks like not everyone was very pleased with their Patronus, however. One of those people being Harry Potter's own Evanna Lynch, aka Luna Lovegood. "I don't geddit @pottermore," she Tweeted. "All of my happiest memories are spent in the presence of cats. Why oh why is my Patronus a SALMON?!" I mean right? What's a salmon going to do? Flop around in the face of danger? It gets worse. She continued, "The tragic thing is Salmon was my second (more centred, instinctive) attempt. My first time taking the quiz I got a GREYHOUND. Don't even." Yeah, we're still not over this salmon thing yet, you know?

"I thought it was supposed to be something that lights you up inside," she tweeted about her Patronus. "My salmon makes me feel heavy." One person replied, "I suppose you're supposed to think of happy leaping salmon?" Loving the positive outlook here. Evanna offered up another explanation noting, "Or the salmon of knowledge which is an Irish legend and if you catch him you gain infinite wisdom. CLUTCHING AT STRAWS HERE!!" We feel you girl. We also feel for those who supposedly ended up with things like moles and dolphins. Awkward. Some people hilariously made their own Patronus spoofs, like ending up with Harambe, The Rock and, um, an Amazon cardboard box. Whomp. Whomp.

The Harry Potter author unveiled her own Patronus; a heron. "I took the @pottermore test (which I wrote) ages ago when it was a work in progress and got a pine marten Patronus. I was happy because my fondness for weaselly creatures is well documented. However, when we finalized the @pottermore test last week, I took it again and found that it had changed (which, as we know, can happen). My new Patronus has personal associations, and I like it even better." Well, jeez. Isn't that nice? J.K. Rowling conveniently got a beautiful, majestic heron, while we're all over here hanging out with a bunch of soon-to-be sushi.
