Okay, so I read the seventh HP Book...in leaked PDF format b/c i'm an HP dork enough to go to the book opening but too cheap to actually buy a book. Yes, I dressed up. As Pansy Parkinson, not that anyone got that... *pout* Anyways, I got home at about 1:30 and spend 7.5 hrs reading the book ( Read more... )

YAY PICTURES. And I agree so much about the Slytherin thing. Thanks for saying it so I don't have to go on about it, 'cause I could probably never shut up. It makes me so mad. I saw someone with an icon that said: "So JKR is mean to the Slytherins...so what? SHE INVENTED THEM." and I just wanted to slap them. :( Her inventing them doesn't justify her awful treatment of them! It just shows how absolutely awful she is at writing, her inner biases, and her epic failure overall in that regard.

::grouse:: But yeah. FRED. ;_________________;

P.S. the_ass_ship. Fo'srs.

I would laugh and laugh if he were in Hufflepuff. But most fics tend toward Gryffindor or Slytherin. I like Slytherin better myself. :D

I think that counts as a drabble, abeit a rather unpolished one. I also could've done w/ breaking up that massive paragraph near the end. Oh well

I was thinking the same thing about hufflepuff. Ravenclaw wouldn't be too bad either, but I didn't feel any inclination towards learning coming from him.
So far, nextgen, I don't really like Lily (personal biase b/c i think she's a little twerp) and James (he shouldn't be so mean! D: Oh well, teddy will help reform him...w/ love! haha, okay, too much sappage)

Albus in Hufflepuff fic, chapter 1. :D

Though someone is trying to convince me of James/Scorpius now. askjflk? I find it bizarre but strangely intriguing. I wish I could write oh god. You should write more!

-Neville! I loved him, too. I always have, but even more now. Wait, how did he get the sword? I was kinda hoping Ron would die so Neville could be with Hermione instead. Oh well ( ... )

the V-man? haha, great.
Neville got the sword...b/c everyone else abandoned it? i don't quite remember...
I didn't really like lily all that much in the book, and Snape's one sided love made me sort of sad. Poor sev, we do love him so...

The goblin got it... and I doubt he'd have given it up.

I've been waiting for a relationship between Snape and Lily to show up... I kept flailing at Max while reading it.

Ah, that's a good point...maybe he did "Accio Sword!" I've always wondered about how explicit you have to be when doing Accio, though. B/c "Accio Sword" could result in about 50 different swords from around the castle hurtling at you...
Probably wouldn't work against goblin magic anyways

^_^ thanks, it only looks good when curled a bit though. I woke up this morning and it was a horrible mess. Guess that means constant use of hairties until it grows more

Um..i wasn't aware that I was saying anything particularly funny. I also realized, upon rereading my post, that I did not seem to finish a sentence...
I stand by my random thought about "Nympho" Tonks. That deserves some sort of ficcage.

Oh, Luna is so much love.

Perhaps Harry was trying to make up for the fact that Sev. never got any love from his mother? AAAAhh, that just lead to horrible thoughts of A. Severus/Lily Potter. Which is wrong. So wrong b/c it's wrong and b/c Lily is a little brat.
I fully support the AS/S though. Although it pains me how quickly people manage to badfic that pairing.

Believe me, you don't want it. Well, it's not badfic so much as bad fic. Just a lower grade of writing. And short. I hate really short fics that accomplish absolutely nothing.
I also hate reading chapter fics for a new ship b/c THEY ARE ALL WIP's and i have the patience of...something really impatient. I suck at metaphors, so I do no use them

stupid brain writing wrong words

efio_47 July 27 2007, 14:20:02 UTC
Does being an RA correlate with you bugging UNC folks?
haha, the nose thing would definitely make a great fic. Ah, i love new fic. Good fics. Yay for fics.
Did you go to the HP opening? I know katherine, emily, and jennifer did b/c i saw pic's on facebook.

dulgor July 27 2007, 17:55:58 UTC
I did, but I played magic over at borders.

oh and I lost to kevin (fiance of the southeast raleigh spanish teacher) XD

It only correlates because it means more money, which means more gass/dinner's out
