The Dursleys Make Sense Now:
We Know From The Trio's Experience With The Locket, Ginny's Experience With The Diary That Being Around A Horcrux For A Long Periods Of Time Has Severe Side Effects In Regard To Mood. It Takes What Is Inside And Makes It Even Worse.
The Dursley's Never Wanted To Take In Harry, And Wanted Nothing To Do With The Potters. They Take Him In, And Are Now Around A Horcrux Constantly. Feeding Him, Cleaning Him, Dressing Him. They're Constantly Exposed, Day In And Day Out. This Is Going To Take Their Already Existing Resentment And Turn It Into Near Hatred. They Lock Him In A Closet As Much As Possible (Similar To How The Trio Put The Locket In Hermione's Pouch). After Even Multiple Days, Their Mood Lightens Enough To Unlock The Door And Once Again Be Exposed To The Effects Of A Horcrux.
One Last Bit Of Evidence Is How The Dursley's Seem To Become Slightly Better People, Even To Ths Point Of Dudley Shaking Harry's Hand, The Less They See Harry As He Gets Older. They're Recovering And Healing.

People like to speculate on what the series might have been like if Neville was "The Chosen One" instead of Harry.
Well, he was.
Harry was chosen by Lord Voldemort for their own private war.
But by taking away his parents, Bellatrix and the other Death Eaters chose Neville to fight them.
While Harry was off fighting Lord Voldemort with no one to protect or think about except Ron and Hermione, Neville was battling for the soul of Hogwarts with the entire student body as potential collateral damage.
While Harry was alone in the forest, Neville was at Hogwarts fighting the Death Eaters with Dumbledore's Army, the Order of the Phoenix, and the remnants of their families to worry about.
Note:- Harry was chosen for a solo mission. Neville was chosen to lead an army. ❤️

I've been re-reading the Harry Potter Books and I got to Prisoner of Azkaban and, at Christmas there's only 12 people around the dinner table.
Trelawny comes along and Dumbledore stands up to draw her a chair.
She freaks out, I must not! When 13 people dine together, the first to rise is the first to die!!!!!
Except.
Ron had scabbers (Peter Pettigrew) in his pocket.
Which means that there weren't 12 people when Trelawny arrived. There was already 13.
And Dumbledore stood up.
Note:- Of All The People That Were Dinning Together That Night On Christmas Dumbledore Was The First One To Die. 💔

You wanna know what i can't stop thinking about???
Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy didn't even have wands when they were running around looking for Draco during the Battle of Hogwarts.
Voldemort broke Lucius's and Narcissa gave hers to Draco.
And more people probably want to kill them than ANYONE else there, they're hated by both sides at this point.
Lucius, one of the most well known and hated death eater and Narcissa, who Voldemort now knows lied to his face about his arch enemy being dead, just to run into the biggest battle of the wizarding war screaming and drawing so much attention to themselves and they can't even defend themselves, but they literally don't even care because all that matters to them is finding their son.
Like damn the Malfoy's have some of the strongest most devoted love in the entire series.
THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE WANDS. 💔
