hboscar:spaceandbones:harry-blogger:harry-blogger:Just for a moment, can we appreciate how great Filch is?He’s a Squib so has to remove any mess with his bare hands People call him a Squib and said in a nasty way like the same kind of tone used for Muggleborns as if he has a choice in the matter, as if he chooses to be a Squib. He doesn’t, that’s just him being himHe doesn’t really have any friends apart from a cat, no wonder his shock and horror at her getting PetrifiedAnd in case you didn’t realize, Hogwarts is frickin’ huge!!! And he has to look after all of it, just him and his cat. And even then, he’s patrolling the corridors at night too (when does he sleep?!?!) No wonder he’s annoyed with the pupils. And also, he’s trying to do his job as the responsibility’s all on him and then he has to worry about Peeves. No wonder, he’s bitter. I just feel he gets a bad reputation when we should feel bad for Filch. Poor Filch.It’s good to see many people agree. Look at those notes go.Another great thing about filch is, he could have went to Voldemort and offered to be a spy within hogwarts, who else knew it better than Filch other than Dumbledore? And he had plenty of cause to do it, nobody really appreciated him at Hogwarts, but he didn’t, he stayed with them instead of backstabbing them and aiding voldemort, that’s pretty cool of Filch Why would Voldemort want to deal with him? He’s a filthy squib to him. -- source link
