I Finally Read That Book--Well, Most of It, Anyway

Jul 22, 2005 15:20

About this time last year, I made a post about how Hermione was almost certainly not going to end up with any boy in the books. Er. Anyway. We all know that love potions work now. :D

A cut-tagged list of thoughts about That New HP Book:

( Harry Potter and His Many Loves. )

I'm willing to forgive the CHEATING and TANTRUMS and GENERAL LOVE-RELATED IMMATURITY because, dude--they're in Gryffindor.

I love you way more than should be allowed. XD XD

No point in blaming them for qualities they were chosen for and that their House (even if unintentionally) nurtured. :D

Oh my god, you're excellent!

Sanguini... Lupin... Malfoy: If I ever found myself in the WW, I would immediately change my name to Aristo P. Lotsagold. (The P stands for "Power".)

I choked on the Sanguini part. But... think of that and Slughorn. Does that mean his penis is like...
*dies*

(no wonder he needs to get lucky, so to speak)

About that whole Potions NEWT requiring a lesser grade. I nearly spat on my copy. Then I ranted at my boyfriend, 'oh, for fuck's sake! This whole series just got rearranged so Harry could stand a chance at becoming a fucking auror! He'd better get his legs blown off or something in the next book, or I'm throwing a bigger tantrum!'

fuckers.

(He's used that very special potion twice in his life! I forget whether he told us all about those times, but I am now imagining one of them had to do with Lily Evans.)

:D As soon as I saw the "...your new Potions teacher!" bit, I was braced for "Whoo, now we can all take Potions! C'mon, Longbottom, you can still be an Auror with As in all your subjects but Herbology! Let's go, Crabb and Goyle! Let's reprise the past five books with a genial teacher!"

Haha. Yep.
Except that he's only going to twist the rules for the Boy Who Fucked Up Potions (again with the bad pun. I'm so tragic tonight).

Once with Lily, once with Tom. *purrs*

Hey. I just got the weirdest idea. Do you remember those Severitus challenges? Um, potions master, being Harry's father? Incesty?

It's so creepy it could just work.

No, I'm not writing it.
