The origins of Aragog

moony-and-the-starboy:

okay so imagine:

•dumbledore brings newt on to show the kiddos at hogwarts some beasts (much to the displeasure of headmaster dipit).
•a young rubius hagrid is fascinated by this strange man with a tailcoat.
•he spends hours talking to the man, picking his brain about these beautiful creatures.
•before his unit is up, newt pulls an enormous baby spider out of his pocket and entrusts the young man with his dear acromantula.
•hagrid never wants to let go of his dear aragog.
