YESSS FLEUR
Oh JKR, I love you and your three-dimensional characters. And your willingness to have your main characters act like total assfaces.

Have some Holly gifs:

I like the Weasleys but I always thought they were being so obnoxious about Fleur, especially because I don't like Mrs Weasley that much in the first place. So Fleur pwning Mrs Weasley was the greatest moment. As was the confirmation that JKR had not, in fact, just created Fleur as a totally vapid hot girl. IN YO FACE.

HOLLY YESSS. Omg the Kevin thing is so amazing.

They totally were. Molly Weasley sit down. And stop being a mother-in-law from hell.

IKR? Oh Holly, I love you. (Although I am nervous about her ~return~)

I am wary of Holly's return as well. I am so tired of love triangle shenanigans on this show and Jan and Holly returning suggests maximum love triangle. Also I will be irrationally offended if Holly/Michael isn't endgame.

I didn't like Fluer at first because I was mad at her for being kind of rude and dismissive of the Weasleys, but then when she was like "I'm hot enough for us both!", she won me over.

And I bet Holly will be back by the end of the season because Steve Carell is leaving and she'd be the perfect ending for him.

I found I was just as annoyed with how the Weasleys were treating her that I didn't mind. Plus I find Molly kind of annoying, so it was awesome to see Fleur defend herself and do it awesomely.

She is coming back actually! I suspect she and Michael will go off into the sunset together as well.

Noooo. I love Molly. After Hermione and Luna she is my favorite female character in the series. lol. ILH. My mom is a lot like Molly, and I actually probably have a lot of Molly-ish traits. I did think that Fleur was being a bit of a brat in the beginning of the book, but so were Molly, Ginny and Hermione. Both "sides" were in the wrong, but my love for Hermione and Molly swayed me to their side.

Molly is such a... mom... that it was hard to take at times, and I think I've actually grown more irritated with her now than I was during the books themselves. I don't hate her by any means, but she's not my favourite.

You actually made me read Harry Potter fic! Nostalgia feels weird... XD

*Pets Fleur* I didn't really have an opinion on her until that scene about Bill, which totally rocked.

I love that fic, it is still one of my favourite fics in general. It is the sort of fic that I miss from HP fandom.

I sort of liked her from the start, I'm not sure why. I think part of it was a GIRL POWER solidarity thing with her being the only female champion, and I was always a bit irritated that she came in last. But then she went on to be awesome in HBP so I was okay with that.

FUCK YEAH FLEUR.

Ohhhhhh, Holly. I still remember the moment I realized that I was not a Pam looking for my Jim, but a Holly who would end up with a Michael. They rapped and I was like "YEAH I WANT... THAT... relationship.... oh nooooooooo."

Fleur is kickass.

LIRL OH MY. I liked Michael with Holly but beyond that I find him more annoying than anything. I want them to be endgame, though, so I can live in the knowledge that maybe he will carry on being the less-annoying version of himself that he was around Holly.

I love Holly though. Her interactions with Kevin in her first episode were hysterical.

I do not know, when I tried to google fanart of Fleur I had a hard time finding ones I approved of and I generally approve of Makani
