one heart above and one heart below

So pottermore has the patronus test up, finally. it's something we've been waiting for for a long time, and I'm glad it's available. It was kind of a disappointing quiz; it seems quite a few people were disappointed by it, myself included. I've taken it a bunch of times, on multiple accounts, and I've gotten a different result each time.

My results were as follows:

• bay mare
• deerhound
• salmon
• black and white cat
• rhinoceros

I think of all of these, the cat is the one that I connect to once. They're my comfort animal, the one that I feel most connected to. My daemon is a sand cat who sometimes also takes the form of a grey tabby house cat. (His name is Caladon, Cal for short, but this is neither here nor there! I have thought about it a lot, though, ever since I have first read His Dark Materials, and it has changed many times over the year - from raven to wolf to chipmunk to lion before finally settling on sand cat.)

Anyway.

So the cat is, I think, what I will settle on as my patronus. It probably also would be my animagus form. And I am satisfied with that.

(I love to think about what all of my partners and powers and things would be if I were in those worlds. Here are a few:
