Minor Character Appreciation Post
Dean Thomas
What do we know about Dean Thomas?
He snogs Ginny in year six, draws a realistic lion in year one, and (my favorite) offers to forge Uncle Vernon’s signature during year three.Imagine if the Trio knew about Dean’s skill in forgery before third year. They could have asked him for a note into the restricted section so they could search for Nickolas Flamel. Or Hermione could have asked him for Lockheart’s signature so she didn’t have to deal with Lockeheart.
Dean Thomas isn’t a character we get to know very well, but I believe that he has a lot to offer to the story.
“We were dancing everywhere. We’d be on breaks between filming, we were doing them. I remember there was a trip out to go see a band and we all went back to Emma’s house in London for a bit and we waltzed in her kitchen, just doing the dancing. Just practicing.” - Matt Lewis
About
POTTER COLOURS is a blog for celebrating the characters of colour in JK Rowling’s ‘Harry Potter’ series and discussing racial issues in the canon and fandom. There may sometimes be posts about the actors of colour who starred in the films, but our focus is on fictional people of colour.
Fans of all races, ethnicities, and identities are welcome to follow us, but we ask that everyone be mindful of racism and other form of discrimination, especially if they are members of a privileged group. Be prepared to be called out on any discrimination, even if it’s unintended and seemingly innocuous. We aim to make this blog a safe space and will include trigger warnings whenever we can, but be warned that racism will be discussed here and we cannot control what people re-blog in the notes.
Submissions are CLOSED for now until we have a better idea of how we’re going to go about running this in the long-term. Additionally, if you are the owner of any images you would like to see removed, please send us an Ask and we will take care of it as soon as we can.
