I am so shallow. I mean, it's too much bother to stop reading (and taking copious paper notes) & post about the less... uh, predictable things, but. Well.


It is canon, folks:
Harry, however, had never been less interested in Quidditch; he was rapidly becoming obsessed with Draco Malfoy.
:D :D :D

Okay, no, I changed my mind.
'The Boy Who Scored' would be much better to inscribe on someone's forehead. Say, Harry's. By Draco. *whistles*

...He... he stared down Draco's "girlfriends", and was left "infuriated", and then snapped at Ginny. I mean. Yeah. Do the math.

I myself was totally like... I know this isn't the 'monster' of his jealousy/lust for Ginny, but. It's some kinda monster, all right. It's just an even more repressed one. (Actually, he's not really repressing his feelings for Ginny-- they seem... normal enough, if confused and sudden). But this-- this is so... all-consuming he doesn't even notice it, because it's just part of how he thinks and who he is, man. It's. *sigh*

I actually think H/D is now more 'canon' preslash (I say this pointedly in quotes) than S/R ever was, I think. Mostly because we have firsthand evidence of Harry's state of mind here-- we have the smoking gun, basically. Whether it comes to anything or not is another question, but at this point I am seriously saying it's right there, in the text. I'm just being bludgeoned to death with it. I mean... yeah, Harry's paranoid, and yeah, it's necessary to the plot, but....

He's -way- over the top and into outer space. Way, way. way.

Ah, but he wasn't leering, he was staring them down, 'infuriated' :D

I think Harry had always thought Draco had a 'harem' or a 'court' and would never really believe Draco was lonely or... um, human. Though I definitely snorted mightily at the bullied!sensitive!crying!Draco bit.
...Sometimes I think I'm really not a nice person. ^^;; Well, definitely not when it comes to Draco ^^;


...Nah, I'm reading -for- (instead of?) 'work' :> I take it v. seriously, y'know :>

not nice to Draco when you're using the cutiepie icon? Never!
The whole book is just H/D all the way, but who cares! Draco's in it. He can sleep with Harry or Snape or Goyle if he wants to, now that our boy's a real boy!

Draco was in all the books, wasn't he :>


I really am mean to Draco :P Not when it counts, I guess, but. I feel like an older sister who loves to torture her younger brother to tears, sometimes -.- Not so that I'd enjoy his misery, of course, but definitely so I'd enjoy his annoyance, frustration and discomfort. And I also have quite harsh views on whom he should be playing around with, and tend to get quite pissed if he's seen with anyone but my chosen companion for him. After all, if he went to someone I didn't approve of (anyone but Mr Potter), that'd make him an ungrateful brat, wouldn't it, & I might have to give him a piece of my mind and/or torture him with visions of Harry mooning over Ginny & making happy red-headed children with her and forgetting all about him, now wouldn't I~:))

OMG you're perving over your younger brother, OMG... whatever, the fandom loves incest and voyeurism, so have at it.

And Draco's a masochist - why else would he run after Potter? But didn't you already torture him with cute red-headed babies and Harry forgetting all about him? Or was that some other mean sister?

Ahaha, well, that's why I said -sometimes- I feel like his older sister :> :> Usually when I perv it's from Harry's pov, though. I've got an excuse, they can't get me!!1 :D

And yeah, him being a masochist was actually what drew me to him at first, in fanfic. Otherwise the whole thing kind of loses its lustre for me; setting him up with someone to make him -happy- makes me as bored as fluffy!H/G. Hahah, I think I've written a number of triangular-type H/D/G fics in my time, though all I can think of you meaning is this one (http://www.livejournal.com/users/reenka/192638.html) :-?

you had this coming

He wouldn't be tortured, he had bigger things on his hands than Potter! Like Myrtle.

God I can't believe you like the Harry/Ginny Sue.

Actually, I can.

I guess it's good Harry has someone whose hair he likes?

If you start shipping H/S you're dead to me.

I don't like it, it just makes sense to me on a meta level, plus... I can't stop liking Ginny no matter what. Once I wrote her with Pansy in my long fic (prolly the only successful romance I'd ever written), that was set in stone. And I can see how she's good for Harry in an archetypal sense, though it wasn't written well in actual canon, which is what I said, pretty much. It's like, well, -most- things (even the Draco bits) weren't actually written that well and/or were predictable (to me). I only liked the Tom bit in the orphanage, the cave & the last confrontation of Dumbledore & Draco and the funeral as far as execution, so.

And I've always liked Harry & Snape's dynamic, not really in a sexual way. But even if I sexualize H/D, I don't necessarily like -them- in a sexual way either. Agape rules all.

I think Snape is Harry's Dark Father.
