Vernon was nothing but an illusion. He could not reveal his true self to his wife in fear that she would leave him and never return. He was a wizard. Of course, he doesn’t use magic anymore, but he still knows how.
He may look cowardly and useless on the outside, but this is all just a charade. He knew all about Voldemort. He was not afraid. Just let him TRY to come to his home and take his family away from him. Let him ATTEMPT to harm Petunia, Dudley, or even Harry.
May God have mercy on his soul.

The illusion was simple to keep up. All he had to do was make believe, like Dudley used to do with his imaginary friend.
He could pretend. Pretend that nothing was wrong; that he didn’t live in a cupboard, that his relatives didn’t hate him with a burning passion, and that he was not completely alone in the world.
The illusion kept Uncle Vernon from hitting him too much; it kept the teachers from looking at his bruises so he wouldn’t have to be sent to an orphanage. He could survive-would survive.
It was all about keeping up the Illusion.

"He's a git," Ron huffed, storming down the Fourth Year dormitories. "A big, fat, betraying git."
Hermione looked up from her Potions essay and frowned. "You're still convinced Harry entered himself, Ron?"
"Of course," Ron scoffed, as if it was obvious. "Harry would do something like this."
Hermione frowned again. "Would he, Ron?"
Ron nodded quickly, and looked at the simmering fire.
Hermione hesitated and muttered, "I wish you wouldn't be under the illusion he did. Harry's our best friend, Ron. If he said he didn't, we should believe--"
"No, Hermione!" Ron interrupted. "I'm not under any illusion."
Hermione sighed.

“It’s... the Grim?” Harry had just taken a look in his teacup in the Great Hall, applying what he had learned in that stupid excuse for a class to real life.
Hermione needed to see for herself, so she looked. “Oh no, it is the Grim! Harry, you know how I feel about Divination, but take care of yourself anyway. Please?”
“You’re both wrong. It’s a tree. See?” Ron pointed out the needles. At that moment, Ron turned around to see Hagrid walking in with a big Christmas tree.
“I guess we know who the Divination Master is.” Ron smiled.

Hermione glared at Ron and pushed the book towards him again, stubbornness written across her face.
“See Ron? There’s an allusion written right there to present day situations and ideals!” she pointed at a line in the History of Magic book, but Ron refused to even glance at the book.
“I don’t care about illusions, Hermione! I don’t see how illusions have anything to do about learning History of Magic.”
Hermione sighed, “Not illusion, Ron, allusion!”
“That’s what I said! Illusion!”
Hermione finally gave up on explaining the significance of History of Magic to Ron Weasley. He would never understand.
