~~ i can't talk about anything but ootp, i swear to god. scary.

before-ootp: everything is h/d. post-ootp: everything is h/d, except it's also ootp. sigh. i'm out of hiding, and i can't shut up. don't expect anyone to discuss with me or anything (though that'd be nice), it's just i have so much to respond to, and i feel nothing more is to be gained by abstaining from seeing others' views. so.

( ramblings on the new definitions of canon-vs-fannish shipping post-ootp.... and of course, how ootp affects the canonness of h/d. inspired by ivy )

( ramblings on draco's development or lack thereof, inspired by aja.... )

( ramblings on dark!harry-- how i lurrrrve thee-- and his new status as antihero and pissed-off teenager at large. inspired by silvia. )

( ....EDIT... and, of course, couldn't help pasting in my two cents on why i think sirius ended up the aristocrat while snape got taunted, and yet sirius somehow became the good guy.... inspired by penelope. )

( ...and finally, a few fanart recs... i'm sure there's a load i'm missing, but this was just a preliminary skim of the fandom, a response to a few of the more recent posts. )

P.P.S.... all else aside, cassie claire's post on the meaning of death & harry's journey as a hero during and after ootp basically said everything i wanted to and didn't, about the book. wah. yes.
