Harry Potter

Warning! Serious spoilers, if you haven't read the 7th book or watched the 5th film and don't want to know about them please don't read under the cut!

( As I read the book the terrible knowledge sat in my mind: whether Harry lived or died, he would be gone )

*sigh* I'm glad you enjoyed the movie that much. You're totally right; I wouldn't be able to if I kept comparing them to the books!

About the book...I happen to disagree about Hedwig. There must have been another way; even setting her free would have been less cruel. Poor thing didn't even get to procreate.

I didn't notice the Firebolt thing until you pointed it out...

About Fred--I think she knows how much us fangirls overanalyze and dissect her work; there was nothing else shocking enough to surprise us. Didn't we already know Snape was good? And that Lupin had to die, finish off the Marauders? That Harry was a Horcrux (OK, you didn't agree, but lots of people did.) So she probably thought "Here's a little something to remind you WHO THE FUCK IS THE CREATOR, BITCHES" Or somethiing of the sort. >_>

As for The Lovely Thing You Sent Me, I somehow love the meeting. Poor Harry on all fours. That's as far as I've gotten, though; please remember I'm working on borrowed computers.

I know setting her free would have been less cruel, and I'm not saying it wasn't horrible that she died, but can you imagine a scene in the book where she was set free? Or even sent to live with Hagrid or Lupin or someone? It would have looked slightly too easy and contrived and a bit nice in the context of the rest of the book ( ... )

I actually thought that considering he was the last of them he might stay alive! Kath: 1 Me: 1

bringing the books full circle by creating another orphan Kath: 2 Me: 1 JKR: fucked up.

Yeah, I checked my gmail first and am currently the prowd owner of your printed-out work. SUCK ON THAT, BIATCH! >_>
