Am 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?

Unfortunately. :/

After all, IITS. ;-)

I think I've reached the point where I just throw up my hands. I can accept a certain amount of confusion about what really happened and characters making a few egregiously obvious mistakes - people do - but this whole mess is just too much, and too obviously contrived.

I think I'm going to assume that Voldemort's "memory" of that night is actually the way he reimagined it because he's such a narcissist that he doesn't even want to remember anything halfway smart the Potters did. That clears up a lot.

0.0.

Holy shit...that actually makes sense. After all, Harry *was* in Voldemort's head when he was having that vision; Voldemort was probably just using their bond to f*k with him. (He did it to lure Harry to the Ministry of Magic in OOTP, so it's not far off)

And all I can say is that Spock icon is gold. :3

Even if Voldemort didn't know Harry might be watching, he could still have rewritten it for himself because he's just that disdainful of everyone else.

It's a very useful icon! I got it over at fantastipink somewhere, can't remember the details.

That too. :)

Awesome! :D

I just love the look on Spock's face. ^__^
