• Developed Kid: Sirius, so very much. Harry too, if you go by mental historic period.
• Artifact of Allure: Sirius starts to put on the Slytherin Horcrux ring despite Harry alarm him that it would kill him. He manages to stop himself when Harry says, "Sirius, if y'all put that on then Snape volition have to save your life. SNAPE."

Sometimes, though, he strays right into Magnificent Bitch territory:

Pansy: (After Rita Skeeter'south Pentawizard Playoffs article) Stunningly pretty? GRANGER? What was she judged against - a chipmunk? Harry: I wouldn't talk if I were you, Pansy. Seeing equally I heard you lot came in third.

• Blatant Lies: Used past Harry when a Sarcastic Confession just won't cutting it.
  • Subverted in ane example:

Molly: This is much improve gossip than last year's 'Albus Dumbledore was madly in love with Gellert Grindelwald.' Honestly, y'all'd think Rita Skeeter would acquire to finish making upward such sensational stories. Obviously Dumbledore was struck speechless past the Blatant Lies and thus couldn't be bothered to deny it.

• • "How practice you know that?" "My psychic scar told me."
  • Too, this substitution:

Snape: Is there a reason you felt the need to go running off on a suicidal rescue mission without informing a responsible adult, commencement? Harry: I did become a responsible developed. Professor Lockhart is a Hogwarts Professor and surely Professor Dumbledore wouldn't have hired him if he didn't have complete faith in him.

• Cannon Fodder: How the Sorting Chapeau describes the Gryffindors.
• Casual Danger Dialog: Harry uses this (along with a great bargain of sarcasm) every time he and Voldemort have a showdown.

Harry comes off like this to others, as most things he says are bat-shit insane, but slowly people realize that the more than over-the-top Harry's predictions are, the more authentic he gets.
• Cut His Heart Out with a Spoon: When Harry and Lockhart reach an agreement of sorts, Harry adds that if he tries to steal i of his accomplishments, he'll beat him to death with a paper napkin.

Lockhart: CAN y'all beat out someone to death with a paper napkin? Harry: *shrugs* I'll have fun trying.

• Decease by Adaptation: Mrs. Norris ends up killed by the Basilisk during 2nd year.

• Do Not Call Me Paul: Just three people are allowed to call Tonks by her birth proper noun Nymphadora. Ii of them are Charlie and Cedric considering she lost a bet to each of them (and doesn't make such bets anymore). Remus tin can call her that as well, though the significance of it escapes him at first.

• Verbal Words:

Harry: Look... Didn't Draco guild yous not to try to salve my life or to endeavor and bulldoze me from the castle? Dobby: Dobby wasn't trying to salvage the Keen Harry Potter'due south life nor was he trying to send him away from Hogwarts. Dobby was trying to suspension Harry Potter'southward arm.

• Family-Unfriendly Aesop: In-universe. Sirius tells his History of Magic grade the story of Voldemort's parents and asks them what the moral is; Lavender suggests, "Don't assume the guy you're feeding dearest potions is in love with you and finish."
• Fantastic Racism: Parodied. Luna asks Snape if he is a Living-ist, or someone who judges based on whether or not a person is dead or alive.
  • At 1 bespeak, it's shown that even the Weasleys aren't completely immune to the Pureblood mentality when Ron mentions they never talk nearly their 2d cousin who's a Squib (and an accountant). Harry notes that it's to Ron'due south credit that he doesn't grasp why the cousin is an outcast and that he'due south invoking this trope unintentionally.

• Harsher in Hindsight/Hilarious in Retrospect: An in-universe case. Mentally beingness an adult lends Harry a different perspective on many incidents, such equally now being horrified at Neville's Hilariously Abusive Childhood or finally getting that Lockhart was joking when he unsaid he was more famous than Harry.
• Hypocrite: Harry (affectionately) thinks this when Sirius insists Snape should really let become of his resentment. Because Sirius himself is quite mature in those regards.
• I Pass up Your Reality: In a lighthearted version of this, Sirius chooses to pretend he was in Majorca instead of Azkaban for over a decade. Everyone pretty much goes with it.
• It Tickled Me: Much of what Harry does is to avert the crap that's going to happen, but most of it he does for the hell of it. The main reason he doesn't tell everybody his actual age is that and then everyone will then wait him to deed similar information technology.
• Karma Houdini: Lucius gets away with everything he does. Once again.
• Kill It with Fire: Almost of the Horcruxes are destroyed using Fiendfyre.

• Loophole Abuse: In Harry's 4th year, he was supposed to work with antidotes and "turned in a bezoar over again".

Harry: It's kind of expensive, but the expect on his face and the fact that he tin't technically fail me because the assignment was to find a way to save someone from the diverse poisons makes it all worth information technology.

  • In that location is also why some students begin to utilize pens instead of quills and notebook newspaper instead of parchment.
• Only in It For the Money: Well, Harry'southward non merely interested in money, but he does deliberately project this persona, to the point where he manages to convince everyone that he's non the Heir of Slytherin, because if he was he would be profiting off information technology.

Sirius: It'due south going to take every ounce of my considerable cocky-control, but I desire to await until [Snape's] so paranoid he can't sleep before I start in on him.

• Peggy Sue: Harry and Sirius travel back in fourth dimension and fix things. When they don't goof around.

"Oh, well he killed me and I had a nice chat with Dumbledore's soul who informed me that but because I was imagining things information technology didn't make it not real and then I got improve." Sirius merely stared at him. "Information technology gets better," Harry grinned. "Apparently I only survived because of The Power of Love." Sirius groaned. "For the record, when you're telling this to other people, try to come with an explanation that sounds more than Badass."

• Power Trio: Double Subverted. While Harry, Ron, and Hermione become friends like before, Neville is added to the ranks right from the go-get, making them a Ability Quartet. Still, Ron, Hermione, and Neville end upward more of a unit without Harry, making them a Power Trio and him more of the Draco to their Crabbe and Goyle.

• The Rival: Draco, but in a fashion that is far more friendly than in canon. Neither likes the other's friends and they sometimes don't speak to each other, but generally they are on rather adept terms. It may exist best described as a cross betwixt this and Vitriolic Best Buds.
• Sarcastic Confession: Harry constantly tells the truth about how he knows certain things, stating specifically that no one would believe the truth. Now then, he just uses Blatant Lies.

Snape: POTTER! Enough nearly your mythological creatures and your obscure Muggle literature!

• Stunned Silence: The Death Eaters' reaction when Harry throws off Voldemort's Imperio Curse and proceeds to mouth off at him.
• Stupidest Thing I've E'er Heard:

Harry: [Dobby'southward] apparently gotten it into his head that Hogwarts is a walking death trap and therefore I'm better off with my Muggle relatives and in particular my Muggle uncle who could snap at whatsoever time and try and strangle me. Therefore, he sealed the portal to the platform and Ron and I got bored so we decided non to wait for everyone to set up the mess and just fly here. Draco: That has got to be the stupidest affair I've e'er heard.

• • And later...

George: Also, the Slytherin team plainly couldn't find anybody to spy as they showed up in person. And full Quidditch gear. Harry: Why in the world are they wearing their Quidditch robes to practice in? That has got to be the stupidest thing I've seen all day. Fred: All mean solar day isn't very long, Harry. It can't exist more than ten.

• Sure, Permit'south Go with That: Played for laughs in Chapter 35.

• Surrounded by Idiots: Harry but considers most of the human population to be mindless sheep.
  • "Harry, you lot've predicted 'I will exist besieged by the general stupidity of the population' three times this month!" "Only three times? Looks like it's going to be a good calendar month then."

He later encourages others to try to lose the House Cup, calling information technology a "Suck-upward" Cup. And then there's, well, everything else he does...

• Uncle Pennybags: Harry both makes and spends money far more extravagantly this time around.
• Unresolved Sexual Tension: Harry points out that Ron and Draco'due south rivalry looks suspiciously similar this (Hermione finds it hilarious while it goes correct over Ron's head). He later thinks Ron and Hermione's relationship clearly falls under this equally well.
