Mar. 4th, 2011 12:36 pmAm I the only one a little bothered by Dumbledore? Not only with the fact he could end up in the Guinness Book Of World Records for "Most Incompetent Headmaster of All Time" (though I'm sure there's worse. :P), but also because...he just bugs me. I know JKR was trying to write him as the "flawed Yoda", so to speak (and to be fair, he's nowhere near Yoda. XD), but it's also how...preachy he gets. Towards Fudge, for example. You know, in Goblet of Fire, with, "You place too much importance on purity of blood, yadda yadda et cetera et cetera" -- which considering how he treated Tom Riddle and the Slytherins is...slightly hypocritical isn't it? Probably bad writing on JKR's part, though. :/
Anyways, sorry 'bout the rambling. Thoughts?

Me as well. :)
"I don't want the part about burning a world retconned over, because it does testify to the fundemental flaws of the Jedi, and that they can act with great cruelty, too. It's a common theme in my fics. I have my OC in my fics telling the redeemed Revan that the Jedi can be cruel when they see fit too, after she questions him about the Jedi brainwashing and reprogramming him, which to me is a deep violation of an individual being, no matter how evil he may be."
*Is interested*
I'll definitely take a looksie when I have the time.
And you're welcome. :3 (Seriously, I should really make an Atris +/Kreia icon with: "Rhyming scenes: Not just restricted to the PT anymore." *Beat* Okay, I know how horrible that suddenly sounds. XD)
