Ron:
You're a parselmouth! Why didn't you tell us?
Harry:
I'm a what?
Hermione:
You can talk to snakes!
Harry:
I know. I mean, I accidentally set a python on my cousin Dudley at the zoo once. Once. But so what? I bet loads of people here can do it.
Hermione:
No, they can't! It's not a very common gift, Harry. This is bad.
Harry:
What's bad? If I hadn't told that snake not to attack Justin...
Ron:
Oh, that's what you said to it?
Harry:
You were there! You heard me!
Ron:
I head you speaking parseltongue. Snake language.
Harry:
I spoke a different language? But I didn't realize... how can speak a language without knowing I can?
Hermione:
I don't know, Harry, but it sounded like you were egging the snake on or something. Harry, listen to me. There's a reason the symbol of Slytherin house is a serpent. Salazar Slytherin was a parselmouth, he could talk to snakes too.
Ron:
Exactly! Now the whole school is gonna think you're his great-great-great-grandson or something.
Harry:
But I'm not! I can't be.
Hermione:
He lived a thousand years ago. For all we know, you could be.
