Cocoapaw: oh, I don’t like this one
Glasspaw: oh, because Dumbledore died?
I just started the book…. I started crying infort of their eyes. They were so confused

I honestly don’t like Dumbledore, but it was still kind of sad. Also, why is it so latee where you live?

Sad and sad
Would it hurt J.K to give Hermione (and the other girls) A LITTLE more backbone????????????????????? I mean, REALLY??????? What I’m reading enrages me!!!!!! If you’ve ever read the books you’ll know what I mean!!!
EDIT: But now that I think about it, this might be her man editor’s work!!
While I have issues with Rowling and her writing, I do think Hermione was a character with a lot of agency! The movies tend to gloss over it, but she was really ruthless – I mean, she captured Rita Skeeter and kept her in a jar for who knows how long 😛 . She’s incredibly stubborn and often refuses to take no for an answer. While this is more a character /flaw/ and often means she does less than moral actions, it does mean that she doesn’t accept anything without putting up a fight. And she’s dedicated as heck! C’mon, the girl took double the amount of classes as expected when she was 13! All 13 year old me wanted to do was doodle in class
I think that there are other female characters that do get messed up by the narrative, most notably Cho Chang, Ginny Weasley, and the Patil twins, but I think Hermione turned out okay
Yea 😛 I mean, while J.K. describes Ginny as “hardened by her brothers” or something, that shouldn’t even be noted! Females cry so much it’s not even realistic. Ginny cries as much as any of them. But yes, there are many times where I’m like, “GO HERMIONE, YOUR’E DA BOSS!!!!!” 😛
And other times where, for example, when she says (I just read this part);

“Oh, Harry, you do it, my hands are shaking!”
Me: ..she’s been saying that a lot lately.
Personally, I have the headcanon that Ginny got so tough from /defending/ her brothers from ridicule/fights, though that’s never directly said in the books if I remember right.
Haven’t read the 7th one in about 8 years, so I can’t say what that one’s like in terms of its female characters, though I do think that crying is not inherently a sign of weakness. Some people cry it out when they have a problem and some people don’t. Both are okay and neither makes a character – or person – more or less strong. It’s more how you deal with your problems and work past them that truly determine your strengths 🙂
Though I haven’t read the book in a long time, so I’m not sure how it’s handled^^
oof hermione’s the only character i like in the protagonist trio
interesting!
I quite like all three of them, and I personally feel like Ron deserves more love, but yes Hermione is awesome 🙂
I was annoyed by how often in the movies she grabbed Ron or Harry’s arm and sort of hid behind them.
oof hermione’s the only character i like in the protagonist trio
Oof 😛
Btw, spoilers on the comment below that I forgot to put dots for so I’m putting them now as a fair warning 😛

Does anyone else think Harry just brushed aside Hedwig’s death? I mean, I haven’t finished book 7, but so far it seems that way…

Spoiler alert for the deathly hallows and the order of the Phoenix
.
.
.
I cried when Lupin and Tonks died, they were some of my favourite characters
I cried the most when Sirius died though, he’s my favourite character, when I read the Order of the Phoenix, I was just wailing why, why did Sirius have to die ..
I cry a lot over books. I cried when Cinderpelt died and when Bluestar died.
Same, same :'( It was so sad, why………??????????????????????????? All the people that matter most!!!! At one point I was like, “Not Hagrid, not Hagrid!!” I was so scared he would go too, it was a massive relief that he didn’t. Everyone who where closest to Harry seemed to by dying left and right. I still don’t know how J.K had it in her to stand putting all her characters to their deaths 🙁
(Also Fred Weasly and Dumbledore and Hedwig) :'(((
I usually only cry when
1) The character was not human (ex. Dobby)
2) When other characters grieve for them (ex. I didn’t cry at Sirius’ death, I cried when Harry was grieving him in Dumbledore’s office)
And also the Forbidden Forest Resurrection Stone scene made me cry?
I have never cried over a book or a movie 🙂 I was really sad about their deaths though.
Especially
*Spoilers*
Snape’s he’s one of my favorite charecters but his death was lame.
*End of Spoilers*
I also recently watched Titanic. (Which all my friends before it started were like “Ha now we’ll finally break Flamecloud!” By the end of the movie, I was bored and mildly amused 🙂
Sooooooo
I started the first book so I’m officially part of the Harry Potter fandom
hello
(also try not to spoil me plz lol)
EDit: too late
im going to have to shield my eyes
Rip Shadow 😛
indeed
aH wElL, wElCoMe tO tHe fAmIlY
thAnks
*flops down on couch*
*tosses a chocolate frog to you*
So what are y’all houses? I took the quiz and according to it I’m Hufflepuff, but I think I’m a Ravenpuff
I’m a Ravenpuff 😀
Yaaaay Ravenpuff buddies 😀
Gryffindor 😛
Niice
Ravenclaw/Ravenpuff
trIple Ravenpuff :O
same I haven’t taken the pottermore test but the one test I have taken said Hufflepuff, but I identify as a Ravenclaw, so RAVENPUFF YAAAA
QUADRUPLE RAVENPUFF :O
:O
slytherin or ravenclaw
Slytherclaw yeet
old quiz says hufflepuff, new one says ravenclaw. ravenpuff then 😛
Ravenclaw 😀
Hufflepuff!!!!!
I also have some Ravenclaw traits, and a tiny bit of Slytherin.
I’m all done Harry Potter 🙁 Sad, sad 🙁
Fantastic Beasts and where to find them?
It’s amazing!!!
It’s definitely a unique experience reading them the first time, but they’re still there for you to read again 🙂
Rip 🙁
You can always reread them, and the fandom’s still here so you can make fanfics and all that 😛
Btw I’m a Ravenclaw and I know it has to be done for a movie, but it’s still kinda annoying how much they cut out. SPOILER ALERT STOP READING IF U HAVENT READ BOOK 3 I THINK OR LATER like, S.P.E.W. I haven’t read the books in a while but I’ve been watching the movies, and I had completely forgotten about that until recently. Also HARRY’S FIRST DATE that’s not a small detail like Dudleys hair going from blonde to brown, Harry or Voldemort’s eye color, it’s an important part of the plot! Also my fav scene from the 3 movie that’s not in the books is:
Harry: *trips and summons knight bus*
what’s-his-name pimple dude: “why are you down there?”
Harry: “I fell over”
Pimple dude: “What’cha fall over for?”
Harry: “I didn’t do it on purpose!”
Yeah, it’s annoying to see how much they cut out, especially in my favourite book (5).
I love that scene too 😛
Stan Shirly??? Stan S-H-SOMETHING??? Idk, but Stan is the pimple-dude’s first name 😛
Shunpike.
I like how we identify him by his pimples 😛
😛
istg i Dont fit in any of the houses lol
