TEN?


I'M WITH YOU! HARDCORE!

Well, he may have disliked them in general due to the way he was raised, but he fell for Lily, and she's one of them. There may be hope for him. He was essentially a "good guy"
And as far as her falling for him, I'm just repeating what I read in a JK interview.

[batmarg.livejournal.com]

I realize that, as I said, just repeating what I read. Besides, he was an awesome character, whether or not he loved Lily.

I sorta agree in that I would hit Donald like whoa. And I can see the appeal in Mickey even if he does nothing for me.

Checking in. Princess Tutu desperately needs more love. But unfortunately, people tend to run away when I try to explain the premise *sad face*.

4. That's a legitimate bit of personal canon and I can see some of its plausibility but given how little we know about that time, it could just as well be likely that Snape was revelling in the attention he was getting from the DE and Voldemort. He did after all spy on Dumbledore and Trewlawney during the prophecy and went away to tell his master about it, knowing that the logical conclusion would be death for if not the entire family, then certainly the chosen baby. That doesn't really speak to me of a man who's realised it was a mistake and is trying to downplay his helpfulness in the systematic persecution and segregation of muggles.

And well, we probably just have different outlooks but I don't think the crappiness of his childhood particularly absolves him of his actions - our upbringing and growth extends well into our the last stages of our lives, so at that time, teenage/young adult Snape can't hide behind an unhappy household because he's had other experiences in life. I get that people feel sympathy for him but having a reason for being a arsehole doesn't make someone any less of an arsehole in my opinion. Until they acknowledge it and genuinely try to change, that is. Which Snape never did until it was too late to save the girl he loved.

Adding to the love for your responses in this thread. :) I've been nodding my way through it and wishing that I could write with your clarity. Also, since reading DH, I'd agree that while Snape sort of is situated between Harry and Voldemort on the scale of the different choices orphans with bad pasts can make, I'm more and more inclined to see parallels between Dumbledore and Snape. While Harry and Voldemort embody a straight trajectory in the kind of polar opposite lifestyles they choose, Dumbly and Snape serve as a reminder that we are not the people we were at the age of 18 and that growth and a sharp change in the kind of outlook we have is always possible. The difference being that while their motivations both stem from the traumatic death of a loved one, Dumbledore channelled that change and epiphany outwards to reach as many aspects of his life that he could whereas Snape constantly seemed to internalise it, couldn't move beyond it and saw his own good work in protecting Harry as further reminder of his failure to do the same with Lily. Which made him a bitter bitter old man.

OR maybe I'm just babbling. I think my friend put it best after we both read it when she said that Harry Potter characters really don't know how to let anything go, do they? =D

Is he really that bad?

I know, but I feel that Utena helped Anthy to see that she has a choice: either stay in Ohtori, or leave for the outside world. The same sort of choice is within me, but it can be very hard to make that decision.

On the upside, I've started going to therapy, so at least the door is open.

15 is Koromaru from the PS2 game Persona 3. Sooo cute, I agree xD

[(Anonymous)]

I understand the physical game is difficult to find, but emulators are pretty by the dime nowadays, especially for something as high-demand as FFVII. Don't get me wrong, anyone who came in after Advent Children and bothered to play the game is fucking awesome in my book, because they resisted the temptation of an easy and shallow fix---and that temptation is exactly why I wish Comp. (and especially Advent Children, since the others are at least GAMES) didn't exist.

...Oh my god I think I just need to write a dissertation and get it out of my system.

Stupid question: What does GAR mean?

15. In the game he is a character that can join your party, so when a monster you are fighting hits him, he yelps (even when the monster's attack doesn't do any damage).
