Khác biệt giữa bản sửa đổi của “Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dudley Dursley”

Harry steps into a cold cup of tea outside his bedroom door as he goes to the bathroom to clean an injury he has received, and he believes that this is Dudley playing a trick on him. Dudley, however, shows his real feelings towards Harry when he reveals that he doesn't think Harry is a waste of space, and that he would miss Harry in his absence. Although this seems very faint praise to [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Dedalus Diggle|Dedalus Diggle]], who is present to assist the Dursleys in making their escape, Harry recognizes this for a marked change from his earlier treatment of Harry, and makes Harry re-assess the meaning of the tea outside his room – perhaps it was a peace offering from Dudley? While we are never told the full reason for Dudley's change of heart, it is probably the result of Harry's saving his soul from the Dementor attack two years previously.

 

Having discovered his skill at boxing, Dudley is evidently able to stick to it well enough that he manages to lose a significant amount of weight over the course of a year. Our impression is that he will always remain stocky, and likely will have to fight a weight problem all his life, but he seems to have the willpower to bring his weight down at least once.

Dudley is spoiled and self-indulgent. Before he takes up boxing, he is a couch potato who overeats and has become obese. Once he is forced to start losing weight, he uses his new-found strength to beat up smaller children. He bullies his parents with tantrums and whining to get what he wants, lies to them about what he is doing, and has little concern for the feelings of others.
