In This World and the Next Chapter 14

Jun 25, 2015 00:40

ITWATN has no surprises left, or so I thought. We've had Percy being fed to Fluffy for nothing at all. We've had Ron (but not Ginny, Neville or Luna) being inherently prone to blood supremacy, which justifies a group of nominal adults victimising an eleven-year-old. We've had, of course, a "shit wizard" being somehow able to overpower Hermione ( Read more... )

show don't tell, percy is evil, draco is evil, informed wrongness, expospeak, ron is evil, pov!fail, reading the books is a good idea, fucking self-awareness how does it work, are you a witch or not, badfic:in this world and the next, sentences are not minivans, damning with faint praise, hermione in name only, ineffectual villainy, double standard, anticlimax, epic fail, hollywood law, i still ship percy/penelope, everyone is evil, a description would be nice, conflict be damned, i can has characterisation, ginny is ooc, sexism, you call that pacing, disembodied dialogue, harry potter, muriel is evil, idiot balls for everyone, dumbledore is evil, it's full of filler, approved hogwarts exposed dialogue voice

Nice guys like Neville were extremely hard to find

Just look for the trilby, you dumb broad.

Why do so many fix-fics futz around with the house system, anyway?

I've never completely understood where the House system comes from, anyway. I've never really paid it any mind, really.

Not reading. I don't have time to read a self-righteous atheist's rambling attacks against Rowling and her series using flimsy logic and an unhealthy dose of self-aggrandizing smugness.

Then you have no right to defend Rowling's writing as flawless and all-knowing.

The only table not to participate was of course Slytherin, it remained exclusively attended by students bearing green on their robes.

Because all Slytherins are eeeeevil and are never decent people!

I hate this fic.

And why's that supposed to reflect badly on Ron rather than on all the judgemental arseholes?

Because everyone's favorite Self-Centered Bellend deems it to be bad not to show proper table manners. So decreeth Lord Potter!

Neville though was totally unaware that Millie, being a very smart girl

Wasn't her, y'know, ONE canon appearance supposed to imply that she's unintelligent, seeing as she went for the fisticuffs in a Dueling Club meeting against Hermione?

And I can't even tell whose POV this is meant to be. Good going there.

I honestly don't get how so many authors seem to think that giving regard to POV is optional...
