Another Potter Just Got Sorted Into Gryffindor at Hogwarts. Find Out Who

Tuesday morning, Harry Potter fans didn't need to smell the coffee and kickstart their day, thanks to this JK Rowling tweet which got them all jumping out of their beds in delight:

I'm in Edinburgh, so could somebody at King's Cross wish James S Potter good luck for me? He's starting at Hogwarts today. #BackToHogwarts

It was, it appears, Day 1 at Hogwarts for James Sirius, the eldest of Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley's three children. Presumably 11 (as Harry, Ron and Hermione were in their first year), James Sirius caught the Hogwarts Express from Platform Nine and Three Quarters on September 1, the very date that his dad had caught it in 1991. Potter fans will know that there's still a year or two to go to the '19 years later' epilogue, in which it is James Sirius' younger brother Albus Severus being seen off at King's Cross by his family.
 
JK Rowling was silent on whether there was a farewell committee for James, but thrilled Harry Potter fans leapt in to fill the gap:

Now worried that he'll be irritated by the number of people saying hi. https://t.co/6keaEOsKS0

Thanks! Say 'hi' back, but only if it won't interrupt any burgeoning friendships. https://t.co/Al54tGHvWK

Just in case you were worried, James Sirius was safely Sorted into Gryffindor, just like his parents, which was not to the liking of Teddy Lupin, son of the deceased Nymphadora Tonks and Remus Lupin and, it appears, Head Boy of Hufflepuff.

Have just heard that James S Potter has been Sorted (to nobody's surprise) into Gryffindor. Teddy Lupin (Head Boy, Hufflepuff) disappointed.

What we really want to know is, if Gen Next are going to Hogwarts, are there more books in the making? Here's how Twitter exploded with excitement from Potter fans:

@jk_rowling My heart!! Teddy must be devastated. But I'm sure he'll still keep an eye on James.

@jk_rowling Too bad James can't tweet about his own Hogwarts experience... all that magical interference with technology and all.

@jk_rowling I'm sure Albus Severus' house anxiety has only increased because of this.
