i have a headcanon that after the second wizarding war, muggle technology got sort of integrated into hogwarts to allow closer communication with muggle friends and family

so they have like phones and stuff to use to call home

little daisy dursley calls home on her first day of school

Daisy: “Daddy, I made it into Ravenclaw!”

Dudley: “Oh, Ravenclaw, the, um–” [covers receiver and turns to Harry] “What the hell does that mean?”

Harry: “Smart house.”

Dudley: [goes back to Daisy] “THE SMART HOUSE! Oh, I am so proud of you!”

Harry gets a letter from Albus after his first week of school. “Dad I’m changing my name to Rubeus McGonnagal Potter you asshole, why’d you name me after manipulative pricks instead of actually kind people who genuinely cared for your well being and not because your parents or the role you played in some prophecy.”
Harry responds “Touché.”

ok so a design tidbit I found really fascinating for Pearl was the way it slowly incorporated less and less of the sheer cloth that was reminiscent of pearl designs as she reformed more and more, like

the earliest incarnation we’ve seen of her was the one from The Answer, and judging from the line colors half of her body had the sheer cloth over her shoulder-less one piece suit thing

then in her 80′s outfit she had it on as a capelet, covering just a quarter of her whole body

in her first season outfit she had it on her neck area and as a small skirt over her shorts,

then finally she has none in her most recent incarnation

idk if it was a coincidental or intentional design point but I felt like it characterized the way Pearl developed as a character- from someone who was freed from subservience but still very much dependent on others to give her orders, to someone with her own individuality and motivations
