There's some weird thoughts going through my head today. Firstly, for some reason I was thinking of that little russian prince (Nicholas?) who was anemic... so he bruised easily and his blood wouldn't clot... and how that was a result of his family's "in-breeding"... which made me think, for some reason, about how Prince Charles was actually kinda smart for marrying Diana because he brought new blood to the royal line... and how his sons were lesser likely to go mad because of the inbreeding....
... and that just made me think of the in-breeding in the Parry Hotter books... and how there are so few pure-bloods left because of all the in-breeding... and how some of them (eg- Slytherin's Line) go mad because of it.
... I had another weird thought pertaining to something else... but alas, I cannot remember it. I'll have to post more later as I think of things to say.
