My English teacher keeps making comments about ‘losers who post essays on the internet’. It’s starting to annoy me, since I am a loser who posts essays on the internet, and off the top of my head I can think of several non-losers who post essays on the internet. I think I’ll call her on it next time she says it.
There weren’t any answers to anything! We still don’t know what the Veil is, or what answers the two-way mirror holds, or anything else about the Prank…it’s driving me nuts. Instead, we’ve just got more questions. (I, like everyone else, reckon that R.A.B is Regulus Black, but…I dunno…we might all be thoroughly wrong. I guess we have been before. ;) )
Shipping -H/G: was expecting that, really. -R/H: Okay, so it’s not canon canon like H/G is…but I did like ‘I love you, Hermione’ :) (Can’t honestly say I liked a lot of the rest, though) -B/F: Oh, I love. I hope we get the wedding at the beginning of Book 7. -R/T: Dude! I wasn’t expecting that, but I like it so very much. They deserve each other, you know? (Not in a bad way). I hope we see more in the next book. Congrats, fernwithy and co. :D
Quibbles -Ginny…she’s pretty and popular, and all the boys fancy her and now Harry loves her. I hope that whatever fatal flaw she has, we get to see it at some point. -Marietta apparently still has SNEAK on her face. I remember people saying they’d start to get angry with Hermione if that turned out to be the case…and I was probably one of them… -Still hardly any Peter. (Actually, almost less than in OOTP) -And hardly any Luna, either -My prediction didn’t come true. :p
The Rest -I’m very impressed with Draco not killing Dumbledore-possibly he’s no longer my least favourite character. :) -I’m not as annoyed/upset about Dumbledore’s death as I was about Sirius’s, mostly because I saw this one coming. -Voldemort’s mother! We have a name for her and everything! And Voldemort’s uncle, a Parselmouth (he was a great character, by the way) -Narcissa has a nickname in canon! (Actually, she was very close to fanon!Narcissa) -Oh…I love the utter irony of the Vanishing Cabinet being the thing Draco was fixing. And it was Fred and George who pushed Montague in there…that’s disturbing for two reasons: one, if not for that then Draco might not have realised the cabinet could be used, and two- Draco said Montague nearly died, so Fred and George nearly killed someone. Gaaah. Never going to look at those two in the same way again. -EDIT (This is the fourth edit, believe it or not): Is Zacharius Smith related to Hepzibah Smith?
The Theory That I Can’t Remember The Name Of Said theory goes like this: POA mirrors OOTP, COS therefore mirrors HBP, and PS will mirror book seven. (GOF stands on it’s own.) It’s bugging me how HBP was originally the title for COS…there must be a clue in there somewhere.
And HBP does mirror COS in a sense, because both books are where we learn more about Tom Riddle and what he became- and POA and OOTP both feature revelations about the Potters. So- book seven- well…my one thought on what might happen is below somewhere…
The Really Big Spoiler I don’t think Snape is evil. It just…doesn’t sit right with me. It was someone else Polyjuiced into Snape, or some cunning plan between Snape and Dumbledore we know nothing about, or something to do with the Unbreakable Vow, or something. It just…well, in PS, we’re supposed to think he’s the villain when really he’s not, right? So this might be the same trick. Same trick by the author, I mean.
That’s my theory and I’m sticking to it. ;)
One Other Thing Dude, we have zombies in Harry Potter now.
This can be read on it’s own, but recently it and some of my other fics have become parts of a series. :D The first one is Not The End Of The World, and the second is So Are You, and the third is this one. The series is called The Website Stories, or at least it is until I can think of a better title.
It can be read on it’s own, too. All of ’em can. :)
Title: It’ll Be Alright
Fandom: Doctor Who
Rating: PG
Length: Er…I don’t have a word count…it’s quite long.
Characters: Trisha Delaney (remember her- Mickey’s new girlfriend?), her family, Mickey, and Shireen.
Timeframe: Aliens of London onwards
One other thing: Most of this was written before the attack on London…one little bit of it freaks me out a bit now.
The other day I lost one half of a pair of earrings that I liked. So today, during school lunch break, I went down to the store where I’d got them to see if they had any more- they didn’t, and when I got back to school I found my Doctor Who badge was missing from my bag.
…is probably the most terrifying film I have seen all year…
That scene with the car is probably the scariest…when they drive the car through the crowd of people and everyone attacks it -ripping the glass out of the windows with their bare hands. It freaked me out because, you know, humans doing the attacking now. You could just feel the sheer panic…
The train shooting past the station on fire also scared the hell out of me. What was it doing on fire? Did the aliens do that, or what? And the clothes falling from the sky- and the dust- and the bodies in the river- and the tripods. That noise they make. I think I’ll freak out next time I hear a car horn or anything resembling that sound. They were terrifying- I’m so glad I didn’t see any pictures of them beforehand.
I know people have criticized the ending for being too sentimental, but I swear, all through the film I was really, really hoping they’d get a happy ending. So I was really glad when it came, although I’d love to know how Robbie made it home. Guess he’s more resourceful then he seemed…(As for how the aliens themselves ended, I think that could have been done better…it seems a bit adrupt if you never read the book (which I did. Er, sort of. The ending, anyway. :p))
So yeah. Go see it. It’s good. :p
And in the spirit of LiveJournal, does any kind soul want to point me towards fics, or a commumity? I was thinking the potential for fic was enormous, really…
(Oh, and I went shopping beforehand…the LEGO shop does Anakin Skywalker LEGO keyrings. *dies happy*)
Today has not been a brilliant day. I had a feeling something was going on around midday, when teachers started ducking out of the rooms with their mobile phones, and then I heard about the bombs. Me and some friends tried to get on the BBC News website -some kid gave me the password- but we weren’t allowed to in the end, because apparently no-one was supposed to go to any news websites in case it panicked people.
So…a bunch of classes were meant to be going to London tomorrow, and now they’re not, and there were people getting annoyed about that, which sounds somewhat petty but there you go. I texted my parents at home and they texted back and said it was probably al Queda (or however you spell that…I ought to know, really).
I hope everyone’s okay, and their loved ones, too. :( And to think yesterday everyone in London was partying about the Olympics, and now…this.
