Fandom Discussion -- Unanswerable Questions of the Potterverse!

Okay folks -- so this is where you go if you have a question that's been bugging the shite out of you.

Your fellow Potteraholics can respond or add a question of their own.

Let's begin by asking;

If you look at Sirius Black's wanted posters in the movie (a good close up if you're a dork like me and own the actual poster), you'll notice Sirius is holding a sign with the numbers (presumably) 390 and a bunch of symbols.

First and foremost, are we to assume that 390 is Sirius' prison number? Does this mean he's the 390th prisoner of Azkaban? Azkaban has been around for how long and with such a small number? If this is the case, I am truly impressed by the wizarding penal system.

Secondly, what the FUCK are those symbols supposed to denote? Is it some sort of weird sign language? Might the aliens have constructed Azkaban after baffling the Muggles with Stonehenge? (That was a joke, btw :P)

Have an unanswerable question? Post it here!

That sounds like they'd been planning it over the summer then.
