Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (novel)/Heartwarming
- In Prisoner of Azkaban, when Harry says that of course he wants to move in with Sirius, and Sirius beams.
 |
"...for a moment, he was recognizable as the man who had laughed at Harry's parents' wedding." |
 |
- In that same book, after they have rescued Sirius from the Ministry of Magic, he says goodbye to Harry and flies away on Buckbeak.
|
"You are...truly your father's son, Harry." |
|
- Also from the same book, Harry had believed that he had seen his father that night, when he had actually seen himself. He told Dumbledore that it was stupid of him. But then Dumbledore replied that his father did appear that night.
|
Dumbledore: "Your father is alive in you, Harry, and shows himself most plainly when you have need of him. How else could you produce that particular Patronus? Prongs rode again last night." |
|
- And in the same book, when Ron and Hermione fling themselves onto Sirius unarmed to protect Harry from him, and Ron tells him that if he wants to kill Harry, he'll have to kill him and Hermione too. Made even more poignant in that Harry observes something flicker in Sirius's eyes at Ron's words, no doubt because they reminded Sirius of how he was willing to sacrifice himself for James.
- Also, Fred and George making Harry feel better with some expertly-placed humor when Malfoy is taunting him about fainting around the Dementors.
- In The Prisoner Of Azkaban, Sirius mailing Harry a Firebolt and signing his permission slip to go to Hogsmeade, which is accepted as even though Sirius is a wanted criminal, he's still Harry's godfather.
- The part in Prisoner of Azkaban when Gryffindor wins the Quidditch Cup. The way everyone is cheering for Harry, and Wood crying. If that isn't Heartwarming to you, you're a sociopath.
- What's particularly heartwarming is the fact that they were doing pretty badly before then, and they would only win if they beat Slytherin by a certain number of points. Wood was half convinced that he would leave Hogwarts with no Quidditch Cup. And yet...they did it...
