heee.

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.



Also: Er-my-nee <3<3<3<3 :D

Have you got to the part where Harry is like "I want to know what Draco does inside you" or something? that one's my favorite. XD

No,though Aja was already telling me about it for days, and I'm still pretty WTF??! at it :))

.....oh that.
I just finished the book & was like, um, wtf, and then I realized that was the Room of Requirement thing ^^;; *laughs* I'd totally sailed right past that, my mind not being given to puns at the best of times :>

[two-if-by-sea.livejournal.com]

it was completely the one part where I had to put down the book and calm my laughter.

That and the part where Seamus is forced to write "I am a wizard and not a baboon brandishing a wand". JKR is sometimes millions of times better than we are.

I totally laughed a number of times :> ...Though usually not at the puns, which either zoom right past me or make me groan. There were lots of cute little moments which made me giggle, anyway. Heheh, Crabbe & Goyle as 11 year-old girls >:D

And really, this book drove home to me that JKR is -often- millions of times better at we are, at plot-twists & characterizing her own characters, that is. Somehow, I feel we shouldn't really be surprised~:))
