Most students at Hogwarts had lovely and perfectly normal animal companions. The usual cats, toads, and owls were nothing to look twice at. You? You had a blobfish in a bowl that demanded you carry him everywhere, because oh yeah, he talks.

"Ugh, that robe with those shoes?"
"WE ALL WEAR THE SAME DAMN UNIFORM!"
