novin_ha: Buffy: gotta be a sacrifice ([bsg] roslin glasses)

I thought about it and decided I don't really want to bore you with my lengthy thoughts on DH. I'll just post a couple of opinions under the cut.


1) For the win:

Kreacher! Luna! Phineas! Neville! Harry-taking-charge! Dumbledore backstory. Molly calling Bella a bitch (one moment when I liked Molly). Snape asking Dumbledore whether he wants a couple minutes to write his epitaph. Ron. Neville's Grandma. Dudley! The Centaurs and the Goblins. Hermione as a dangerous psycho who modifies her parents' memory (you think she found them afterwards? XD) and most of all

All that happened to the Malfoys. Humiliated Lucius who yet, survives. Draco alive, still cowardly and learning a lesson. Narcissa lying to the Dark Lord who apparently Doesn't Always Know. And then they all hugging. That was ♥ and even Harry kind of noticed that.

2) Fail:

Lupin as an emotional retard was completely unncessary.
Emo!Snape who turned out to have done that all because of love and stuff. I know he's lame and silly. That's how I like him. This was just, too much. And everything fanon happened. Lily!Love. Protecting Harry. Being killed by Voldemort. Pensieve memories. Harry as a Horcrux. Snape's final recognition as a "hero" or something akin. Harry naming a child after a bully, stalker, known Death Eater and generally a son of a bitch, even if a damn brave one who redeemed himself (hello?).
Mrs Figg never appearing.
Ginny shippy parts.

[Poll #1030030]

And most of all, the epilogue. Because of the name and the fact that it shows me nothing interesting. I see a lot of ships but I don't really know what happened to anyone.

[Poll #1030031]

ETA: Of course it's American baseball. Thinking at 3:00 AM = fail XD

Psst: it's American baseball. Football doesn't have bases either.

Ooops. And I actually know it. Thinking at 3 AM = fail, apparently.

I admire your self-restraint.

And regarding the previous entry... Arrested Development? I think you may have the most amazing taste in... things in general.

Second base, but he'd gone in head-first.

Also: LUNA LUNA LUNA. ♥

Oh, but JKR herself said that Snape was no hero! Which is kind of funny, because she made Harry name his kid after the greasy bit. That woman is the heigh of consistency.

I really don't have anything interesting to say (!!!), because basically I agree with you 100%.

RE: Poll the first: To quote Mel Gibson before he'd gone crazy: "I think it's time for the seventh inning stretch!"

RE: Epilogue: Even more than by Albus Severus, I'm baffled by Hugo and Rose. I MEAN. Weasleys named their children after royalty, so where, for the love of god, did HUGO AND ROSE come from?
But we totally know that Scorpius Malfoy was sorted into Hufflepuff.
Also Draco's receeding hair. Very important.

Draco's receeding hairline was the final straw. Why couldn't he inherit his father's beautiful hair? This just RUINED the book for me.

::dies laughing::

Yeah, and Snape is a Byronic anti-hero.

Not everyone, even his son, can be like Lucius. I bet Draco didn't have peacocks, either.

Oooh. I thought Snape was My Little Pony-ish anti-hero, but you're right. (Seriously, the more ridiculous he gets, the more I like him.)

And was the fluffiest of the fluffy Hufflepuffs.
