A Harry Post!
Mar. 14th, 2007 10:19 amBrought to my attention by a fandomy post on ![[community profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png)
heidi8's journal, here be some Harryness.
1. How do you feel about Dumbledore's avoidance of Harry in OotP?
I thought Dumbledore made a huge mistake in avoiding Harry. I've said before that Harry's biggest bane is not knowing. He jumps to false conclusions and risks himself unnecessarily, taking Ron and Hermione along with him, when he doesn't know what is going on. Dumbledore had good reason not to look into Harry's eyes...but he wasn't the only one who knew why that was necessary. *Someone* should have told Harry.
2. Name a favorite crackpot Potter theory.
I'm rather fond of the Ron is Dumbledore theory, especially because it involves time travel, a favorite theme of mine! EVen though...well, after HBP...*ahem* ANYWAY, that's why it's called a CRACKPOT theory. LMFAO. I haven't been very fandom-minded in a while, though, so other theories escape me.
3. Do you think Sirius (consciously or not) mistaking Harry for James actually caused more harm than good?
In a way, yes. But honestly, you can't blame the man for wanting to see certain characteristics in Harry that he missed in James. In the end, Harry IS a lot like James, in all the good ways that count, and I think Sirius understood that.
4. Tonks: Love her, hate her, or somewhere in-between?
I'm in-between. I WANT to love her, but the losing of the powers thing really bothers me. Get it together, girl, you're a professional! People have been known to fall apart due to stress and unrequited love, but she barely had a chance to show that she could be KICK ASS before she fell apart.
5. What Hogwarts house would you definitely NOT belong in?
Maybe Gryffindor. I like the idea of it, but I can be real chicken shit sometimes. Not brave or whatever.
