have i mentioned youve got a great tagging system for these?
Years of biting her tongue and putting up with this shit had worn her down to the point where her temper final snapped beyond repair. while i can see how the boy who lived not attending hogwarts might be a bit disheartening, after the way harrys acted in the fic thus far, i think mcgonagall would be glad to see the back of him. and in canon shes put up with far worse shit than this, frankly. amycus spat in her face for crying out loud, and harry had to snap for her!
I would also like to remind staff that their contracts stipulate that three reprimands is an automatic one month unpaid suspension and a mandatory review by the board. why would she need to remind staff of this? that seems like pointless exposition.
Albus picked up the broken wand and noticed that Fawkes feather still held the two parts together, i think phoenix feathers are just as strong as other feathers, and thus this wouldnt be possible. i also think that when harrys wand broke in canon in deathly hallows it was completely snapped in two, feather broken and everything. but correct me if im wrong, its been a while since i read the books.
Canon-wise, Ron is no less intelligent than Harry, who could himself have gone into Ravenclaw. thiiiiis. rons not a total idiot, he just doesnt always apply himself. same could be said of any student; who wouldnt slack on homework when it just keeps piling and piling up and you have to worry about other things about whether hermione like likes you and the state of weasleys wizard wheezes and the current stock of zonkos?
He's utterly convinced that, for the greater good of the magical world, I must walk up to Voldemort and let him kill me, so he managed my entire life towards achieving that goal." PROPHECIES. ARE. NOT. CONCRETE. you are accusing dumbledore of having voldemorts reasoning, believing that prophecies absolutely must for definite come true. that is a new low.
"Bugger that Mr Potter, you have a wife to consider now!" i stand corrected. look, when it comes to my girl i put her above everyone else, i admit this, but if hitler+stalin came back from the dead and tried to take over the world, i think stopping him would take greater precidence!! is the author just... not human in this regard?
"My parents loved you before and will fall in love with you all over again, how could they not?" *makes wobbly film brain fingers* FOREshadowing!
The goblin method of forcing the horcrux into a pig, slaughtering the animal and then roasting the carcass for a feast is not only brilliant but poetic justice." okay. if there was a 'goblin' method of dealing with horcruxes, dont you think that would be common knowledge? dont you think that more people would have done that to horcruxes in the timeline before this?! dont you think that voldemort would have done research on this and ordered the exterimation of all pigs during his first regime to prevent this from happening?! ...are you sure harry isnt actually truly dead and in his own personalized heaven where everything is conveniently laid out to go his way, like at the end of 'the most adequate christmas ever'? that would explain why we never see hermiones pov directly.
at the first sign of not being able to handle something I'll pay for first class tickets on the next available plane. our gryffindor-ian hero, ladies and gentlemen!

I'm not sure there's any significance to this. I think the author just wanted an image of the broken wand being like Ron's wand in Chamber of Secrets, held together by the unicorn hair. The difference there is that unicorn hair is like horse hair only (per canon) even stronger thanks to magic, not, you know, a feather.

Not to mention that Harry blames Dumbledore's "arrogance" for never having been told about the pig method of Horcrux disposal. I'm pretty sure Dumbledore didn't write "Secrets of the Darkest Art", from which Hermione learns about the creation and destruction of Horcruxes at the beginning of Deathly Hallows. (Yes, I have just passed that chapter in my re-read. :D )

I know, right?

Glad you like it. I think it really took off during the Deserving review, where I started using it for tropes as well as just fic and fandom titles and random jokes.
