"It's a dream -- Rose, listen to me! You're /dreaming/. Whatever it is, it's not /real/ -- wake up!"
Rose shifted slightly in her sleep. How could something so amazing be fake? After all the doctor had shown her, it wasn’t hard for her to believe that what she was seeing now was real too. @talktoten

“Wake up! Wake up! It’s just a dream!”
“What were you dreaming about…? You were shouting…”
“I woke up because you were screaming so loudly.”
“Shh– No, no, don’t panic, love. You’re safe now.”
“It was so real! I swear! He/she was here!”
“I don’t ever want to sleep again. What if– what if I dream about that again?”
“If you tell me, it’ll go away. That’s what my mum/dad always told me and it’s never failed me.”
“Do you want to go back to sleep, or shall I make you a cup of tea?”
“I don’t want to go back to sleep…”
“I’m so scared… I can’t stop seeing what I just saw. It was so vivid!”
“There’s really nobody here, okay? Do you need me to show you around to prove that to you?”
“How do I know I’m not still dreaming? You’re acting really strangely.”
“Let’s get you to the shower, you’re covered in sweat.”
“There’s really nobody else here.”
“You’ve got a really bad fever. That must have caused those weird dreams.”
“I don’t even know what a peaceful night’s sleep is like anymore.”
“I can’t do this anymore. These nightmares have to stop…”
“Shh, it was just a bad dream. Just a dream, okay? None of it was real.”
“I can’t go back to sleep after that. I need coffee– no, I need a drink, a stiff one.”
“How long have you been having these nightmares?”
“I’ve had nightmares all my life, but they’ve been really bad recently.”
“You get so worked up before you go to sleep, maybe you should try to relax a bit more. Maybe then you’ll get some rest?”
“I’d kill for a peaceful night’s sleep.”
“A dream catcher? Honestly? I’m not a child.”
“Nothing’s ever helped this. I just need to learn to live with the fact that sleeping will always be a nightmare, literally.”
“I’m so tired… but there’s no way I’m going back to sleep after that.”

These are some facts that J.K.Rowling let slip in numerous interviews. Facts that tell us what all happened nineteen years later, with our three heroes, Harry, Ron, and Hermoine and other wonderful characters,

~George Weasley married Angelina Johnson and had 2 children named Fred and Roxanne.

~Members of the DA still have their coins, as they are like badges of honor.
~Neville Longbottom worked as an Auror before moving on as the Herbology professor at Hogwarts.

~Luna Lovegood married the grandson of the Newt Scamander, author of ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’
~Firenze survived his wounds and was welcomed back into the Centaur herd.
~Harry will never become Headmaster of Hogwarts since an academic career just isn’t him.
~Hagrid was still working at Hogwarts by 2017, at 88 years old.
~Draco Malfoy really cares about his son, Scorpius Malfoy. He is growing him up to be a better person than he was.
~Centaurs realized that “pro-human leanings were not shameful.
~Draco and Harry never became friends, but they did come to understand and appreciate each other better.
~Hermione tells Scrimgeour that she is not planning to embark on a career in Magical Law. Ironically, that’s where she ends up.
