So, as usher on duty as ticket-taker, I have the job of dealing with families that are waiting in line for Zookeeper. This includes answering questions for young children who are curious about the giant Harry Potter standee depicting Harry and friends battling Voldemort.

Six-year-old: Why is his spell red and his spell green? Is it because green is evil and red is good?

Me: ("I got this.") No, different spells are different colors. Harry's casting expelliarmus and Voldemort's casting avada kedavra.

Six-year-old: Why doesn't Voldemort have a nose?

Me: ...he thought it looked cooler that way. Some people get tattoos, some people get rid of their noses.

Six-year-old: Why is there a snake there?

Me: That's Nagini. She's one of Voldemort's horcruxes.

Six-year-old: *blinking confusion*

Me: It's like a Pokemon.
