DH Thoughts and Whatnots

[tea_elle]

I had a three hour nap, so I think I've calmed down some.

Warned for "OMG"s "Can you believe...?"s and "lol, she didn't just...?"s and other Spoilery-type nuggets. (rather large spoilery nuggets)

Lupin and Tonks dying sucks, and yeah it was pretty anticlimactic, but I get why she'd do it for the sake of the story - now things have come full circle and Harry is godfather to an orphaned baby boy. There's a ring to that.

Fred, though? Fred died out of bloody nowhere purely so she could kill a Weasley. As easily kill off Bill or Charlie or, hell, Percy! Fred has been my favorite character since I read the first book ten full years ago. I was CRUSHED that he died.

I totally, completely saw Lily/Snape coming, and even though it's not my 'ship I have to say I loved it.

I was surprised that Molly killed Bella but that "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH" line just. Yeah. Oh, I loved it so much.

And yes, I caught the Hermione Jean Granger bit as well. Am wondering if that was perhaps merely a typo - it's the same four letters after all.

I know, Tonks just died out of absolutely nowhere. I mean, out of the 50+ other deaths during that battle, Fred was the ONLY ONE who got what even came close to an explanation of how it happened.

OMG Fred SHOULD have made me start bawling. I should have been a literal weepy mess, but by the time I realised he'd kicked the bucket, I also realised I was still laughing over him teasing Percy about making a joke. It was weird. I LOVED the twins. I wanted some for my own.

Apparently Jean was not a typo. *points to hp-lexicon link*

Oh, I was still giggling over the teasing as well - and then all of a sudden I went, "Wait, what?!" Because, um, NO. You do not get to kill off my Fred. (My best friend and I have had a running joke since we first met that while everyone else was all, "Oh I love Harry!" or "I'm going to marry Ron!" she and I were going, "Psh, wtfever. It's all about the twins, yo." So George was her boyfriend and Fred was mine in all our silly little fanfics.)

Ahh, I suppose the Jean thing does make sense now. I wouldn't want to have the same name as Umbridge either, ick! I was really impressed with her portrayal in the movie - I think they actually managed to make her even more repulsive than in the book, and I didn't think that was even possible. XD

I'd always liked the twins, but I fell in love with them when they escaped Hogwarts in book 5. Probly like everyone else did, but still. :D

Still want a Ron of my own, though. ;D

For us, it was the crack about toilet seats.

"If I get one more letter telling me you've-- you've blown up a toilet, or anything--"
"We've never blown up a toilet!" said George, looking affronted.
"Great idea though. Thanks Mum!"

hahaha, they were/are so brilliant.
