swatkatSo. Am done. Computer is broken and I failed to copy my really long DH post to a CD, so this short reaction post will have to do for now.
Non-spoiler-y reaction: Um. Wow. That was epic. More epic than OotP and HBP and a wonderful, fitting ending to the series.
I was spoiled by a so-called friend (I don't blame her now, anymore, because this spoiler was posted in the front page of a newspaper, and was making the rounds everywhere), who said: Ron will die. And I went into the book wholly expecting it to happen. And it didn't. And I'm SO HAPPY, God. Because I've realised now - the Trio is THE best part of the book for me. Oh, Ron. *huggles him*
HERMIONE MODIFIED HER PARENTS' MEMORY. All by herself. Because she wanted to keep them safe. She had a handbag. A HANDBAG. And then she helped rescue her friends while being HORRIBLY TORTURED by Bellatrix Lestrange. I... I don't think I have words for how much I love this girl.
I love Harry Potter.
Dumbledore. Oh, Dumbledore. *whimpers* Dumbledore/Grindelwald is my new OTP.
And Snape. Snape/Lily! It made me so very happy - that Harry didn't know about Lily's best friend because he was right there, in front of him, loving her and hating James and lovinghating Harry for such a long time. Oh Snape. Dumbledore's man through and through.
NEVILLE LONGBOTTOM. Leader of Hogwarts resistance! Killed Nagini with a sword! NEVILLE!
'NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH.'
Remus. Tonks. I *wish* their plot had been better handled, even though I enjoyed that
Harry/James/Lily/Sirius :: Teddy/Remus/Tonks/Harry
Trio :: MWP(P)
And Harry won't be what Sirius was, because he has learnt to recognise that Sirius was a reckless (awesome) man, and the Trio won't be MWPP because they've learnt better than that.
The epilogue was... actually cute (I like cheese. More wine, everyone?), and of course we shall ignore it forever.
