You: Henry Viii

There are only a few things I won’t stand for in hp fanfiction, but goddamn it, it infuriates me when I see it! As follow:

a) Severitus. Anything in which Severus Snape, the disgrace of the Wizarding World, is even remotely nice and/or supporting and/or decent. It stinks. He’s the worst. Let’s not pretend he’s not shit at everything except evilness. Make this stop.

b) Drarry? What the Hell? In what universe would Harry Potter be romantically interested in a nasty, jealous bigot that has done nothing but torment him and insult his friends? What kind of hipster mating ritual is that? Why would he even want anything to do with the son of the man that facilitated the opening of the Chamber of Secrets? The same man that willingly served Voldemort? That thought Harry’s mother and Hermione were scum? Who passed down his beliefs to his son? The son who, at twelve years old, gloated about how the muggleborns at his school were going to be petrified? Who wanted to have a clearly intelligent animal put down because he couldn’t listen to his teacher’s instructions? Draco Malfoy is the racist rich frat boy of Hogwarts and he would’ve voted for Trump and you will never convince me that garbage kid would ever amount to anything good.

c) Petunia secretly loving Harry or anything that even suggest the Dursleys were under a spell. Ok, there’s like this theory that since Harry is a Horcrux, the Duesley could have been influenced by it like Ron was and that’s why they were hippopotamus dung. I don’t buy it. In the Philosopher’s Stone’s beginning, we follow the Dursleys in the first of November for the day. And not only McGonagall describes them as horrible people, we also have a rundown of their opinions about several stuff, including what they think about magic and the Potters, which is nothing good. And that’s a full day before Petunia finds Harry at her doorstep, so they can’t have been influenced by the Horcrux at all. And then there’s the fact that, when Ron had it, he was only affected by it until he left. When he came back, he said he had wanted to come back as soon as he left. If the effect of a Horcrux ends when the person is not in the vicinity of it, then how are the Dursleys not kinder to Harry after he spends TEN MONTHS OF THE YEAR at school and other people’s houses? How come Ron, Neville, Dean and Seamus, all sleeping in the same dorm as Harry, are not affected? Or Hermione? As for Petunia being only pretending to hate Harry, she sure is a great actress, hiting him in the head with frying pans and talking shit about his parents. Because her pretending about all that stuff without ever giving Harry a kind word sure makes the physical and psychological child abuse so much better and acceptable. Not.

d) Remus being a great “uncle” and loving Harry as his son or something. Also known as “if I ever have to read Remus calling Harry his cub and saying he is pack again, I don’t know what I’ll do but it’ll be bad”. People. Please. Unless this is a pre-Hogwarts AU in which Remus’ behavior is different, that’s bullshit. Motherfucker was probably aware of Lily and Petunia’s relationship status. Dude was lounging around wherever he was, probably unemployed, for twelve years and didn’t bother writing a single goddamn letter to his dead friend’s son. A friend that risked expulsion and prison time to become an illegal man-deer to help him with his lycantrophy problem. Something I’m guessing most people wouldn’t have done. Now I’m not saying it’s Lupin’s job to do that. He was under no obligation except that it would have been considerate. The only thing I hold against him is not telling Harry about his friendship with James when he taught defence. That was a dick move. Because if anyone deserved to know he and his father were friends with an allegedly dangerous convict hell bent on killing him to avenge his fallen cult master, it was Harry. And considering that Harry straight up ASKED, it was a super dick move of Remus not to tell him. But the point is, Remus was never involved in Harry’s life. He didn’t write him before Hogwarts, he didn’t visit. Considering how the Order was able to follow Harry around, it’s more or less safe to say there was no wards repelling magical people around Privet Drive. But he didn’t go, he didn’t write, not even a birthday card. Not before he was a teacher and not after. He wasn’t involved. He kept his distance. And that was fine, I guess, it wasn’t his job to do that, it doesn’t mean he doesn’t like or respects Harry, but it does not a family makes. Makes this pack shit stop, if Harry was so important to him, he would have been in touch. It’s not like apparition costs money. “Oh” you’ll say, “but Remus is a werewolf, he was afraid of hurting Harry”. That’s a shit excuse. The only way he could hurt Harry by being a werewolf was if he was stupid enough to show up at his doorstep on a full moon, two minutes before transforming, something he knows not to do. Otherwise he has to consciously want to hurt Harry, as a wizard. And quite honestly, if Remus Lupin went about his life constantly afraid of hurting people when not on the full moon or having any reason to think he would, he had no business going to the farmer’s market, let alone teaching at a boarding school. So, no excuse. He just didn’t have that relationship with Harry. Which is fine. I just can’t stand when people disregard all of his actions and pretend like he did.

e) Daphne Greegrass. That’s it. I hate that character in fanfiction. It’s the worst. All the Slytherins are a bunch of childish bullies but somehow every single fic with Daphne she’s this girl with the personality of a Martial Arts Dragon Lady that never shows pain (or any emotion) and it’s superior to everyone else. And she has that stupid nickname “The Ice Queen of Slytherin”. And she’s a shit character. I don’t even think she had a line in any book? She’s the Blaise Zabini of the Slytherin girls, except Blaise has different personalities in fanfiction. Can we kill this fucking trend?

as a hairdresser who sees very diverse hair on people of all races, it's kind of ignorant to put people in a box by saying that only poc have a certain kind of hair. i've had white women with hair curlier than the poc in my chair before. also "poc" is a very broad term in the grand scheme of things so if you mean black then just say black because i've had every race in my chair and all their hair is not the same. so just saying if you're gonna make a comment about something make sure you're fair

If you bother to read what I say, you’ll see me agree with one of the people that replied to me post when they said white people can have all types of hair. Which is someyhing I would know, coming from a very mixed country.

And if you knew anything about me, you would know I’m mixed race. My mother is black, my father is so white he’s ginger. A have a full brother and a half brother and sister. I have black cousins, white cousins and mixed cousins. I am perfectly aware that people have a wide array of hair types. My hair is pretty much straight and I even have a tiny speck of freckles, but they’re hard to see. My brother’s hair, who is mixed as well, is perfectly curled. His hair curls in little tubes and when he has a full beard it sparkles in the light, because he has natural blond hairs intersected. But his skin tone is darker than mine. I have a cousin, her name is Laura, she’s also mixed and her hair is pretty bushy. And we are not black, per se. But we are poc and we all have different hair and that’s why I say poc instead of black. I’m not going to erase myself and my family just because you believe you know everything because you’re a hairdresser that had black people sitting in your chair. I am perfectly aware all people within an ethnicity can have traits. I lived that reality in my house for 20 years growing up with my brother. So maybe instead of making shitty comments about how biased I am because I want one half of my family to be as represented in the media as the white half is, you can maybe realize you don’t know anything about me and can’t possibly know that when I speak about what I want for me and my family I have two different set of people to care for, people that experience things differently, and I do my best to think of both of them.

tl:dr Yes, I know white people can have different hair types, my dad’s white, I have white friends, I have met white people before. And black people are not the only one who aren’t white and that’s white I say poc instead. See former Grey’s Anatomy star Sanda Oh and her asian self with her curly hair.

But then somehow he was back at Winterfell again, in the godswood looking down upon his father. (Bran III, ADWD)

Christmas was coming. One morning in mid-December, Hogwarts woke to find itself covered in several feet of snow. The lake froze solid and the Weasley twins were punished for bewitching several snowballs so that they followed Quirrell around, bouncing off the back of his turban.

KIM TAEHYUNG’S BIRTHDAY COUNTDOWN: D-3

letters to taehyung ©©

It always pissed me off that Ron didn’t believe Harry didn’t enter himself into the Triwizard Tournament. I mean, this is the guy who defended him from Malfoy in the Express, who fought a troll and smuggled a dragon with him, who shared what he saw in the Mirror of Erised with him, went through the challenges to save the Philosopher’s Stone from Quirrel and that’s just in first year! And that little shit had the gall to turn to him and call him an attention seeking liar and a glory hound? I still can’t believe Harry forgave him. That kid has no self-esteem. If it was me, I would have kick Ron in the balls and refused to even look at him again.

I don’t know if it’s just me but up until the sixth episode or so I thought Margaret Beaufort was just some crazy religious nuts... and then I started to kind of agree with her? ‘Till this day, I can’t tell if it is because she got better or everyone else got worse.
