What's a mistake?

A mistake is trying to write and instead installing one of your Harry Potter games onto your laptop.

*sigh*

You know, I was going to put them on my desktop for a reason, because the desktop runs a wee bit worse and I'm not as tempted to use it too much. But now I've got the "Prisoner of Azkaban" on my laptop, which was my favorite out of all of them, and ... well.

It does make me think of the upcoming end of the book series, anyway. Not that I care quite so much, because I love the mythology and characters and whatnot but I'm also not quite so attached to the characters that I would be depressed if the books were to end with a gleefully bloody massacre in which no one made it out alive, and the happy ending for the adult audience would be that at least we don't have to pay for the therapy for millions of small crying children. On the bright side, there'd always be wank over whose mangled, mutilated body parts Hermione's remains will rot happily ever after with.

Er, it's possible I'm enjoying the thought of the total destruction of the Potterverse a little too much. Heh.

Personally, I think Snape's for it. We may be allowed a moment of heroic, post-modern anti-heroism where Harry Realises That Snape Is Just Misunderstood and the rest of the world use their remaining IQ points to, I don't know, realise they're all stereotyped and try thinking outside the House box for once.

But then all I really want is for Draco and Harry to realise that they're madly in love with each other, someone to ask Voldemort whether he thinks he'd be more scary if he had a nose, and Ron to overcome the 'angry redhead' cliché. Oh, and somebody to tell the Gryffindors that they're prejudiced bigots. I'm satisfied in simple ways.

I have no real attachment to the characters, either. This makes me sad. J.K. put all that effort into making a wonderful, consistent, beliveable world, and none at all into her (main) characters. I have a soft spot for Luna because I was a lot like her as a kid, though.
And it's just occurred to me that Harry/Ginny inspires in me the same level of "but neither of them has a soul!" as Anthony/Elizabeth in Lynn Johnston's cartoon For Better Or For Worse.

I tend to think Snape's for it as well, which makes me sad, because Snape and McGonagall (and the Weasley twins, but don't tell anyone) are the only characters I'd lose sleep over. Ah well. Dramatic imperatives and all that.

And, I was wondering about that tshirt fic challenge, I know the posting date is tomorrow, but where should one post?

If just the ship-wars would STOP if everyone died *cries* But alas, as you said, it's very probable that they won't...
I am SO hoping for the three-four-five-sixsoms of H/R/Hr/G/N/L who all get seduced by Draco at the same time. Now THERE would be a happy shipper-ending :)
