All Bellatrix ships gross me out because everyone in canon shows annoyance with her and I pity everyone paired with her because they would just suffer her. She's also naive and weird, like nobody cares for company like hers. She's only useful and entertaining, but I bet everyone needed breaks from her. If she died everyone would either don’t care, be happy or be sad a bit and then move on normally. Like that's how tragic she was. Even Voldemort immediately moved on after she died. He got mad for losing his last asset and then his attention focused elsewhere. Didn’t even try saving her. Idk that's a sad existence. Voldemort while being tragic too at least had people deeply caring about him like Barty Crouch, Bellatrix and other Lestranges who'd do everything for him. She had no one like that. Only ship I kinda like is her and Andromeda because it's super tense, like Bellatrix lowkey hated Andromeda and that's interesting and they have that former sisterly bond so some level of care is obvious. But I don't get Bellamione, Bellamort, Bellasnape, Bellarius, Bellucius etc like all these people hated her or thought she was annoying etc
Controversial Take 188
Did we read the same books? She was clearly revered. She cheated on Rodolphus yet he was always with her during every battle they fought and in the Battle of Seven Potters, he abandoned the main mission to help her and even ended up taking a curse. Bellatrix's daughter with another man called him her loyal husband. Voldemort, who was a misanthrope, enjoyed her company and reacted to her death worse than everyone else's, including his last Horcrux's, and put her over his long-term plans.
The goblins who generally disliked witches and wizards treated her with reverence and even bowed to her. Tom the Barman bowed to her as well. Even Lucius treated her far more respectfully than she ever treated him. Travers was practically falling at her feet and embarrassing himself trying to impress her and make her laugh when Hermione was disguised as her. She was essentially the he queen at that time if the Wizarding World ever had one.
Also, your 'sad existence' point is directly contradicted by how happy and joyful she is in the books. This woman spent fourteen years in Azkaban and comes out vivacious, laughing, energetic. Compare that to how miserable Sirius was.
Useful? When was she useful at all to Voldemort in the second war? He rescued her despite her messing up the prophecy mission and left her unscathed for letting Harry escape AND losing his Cup. He was so fond of her that less than a day after his cup was stolen from her vault due to her mistake, she was sitting beside him and talking to him like a lover.
He clearly desired her company and sought it out. The intimacy oozes from them. The way they sit close in the forest, how they often echo each other, how he listens to her venting about Azkaban and told her about his rebirthing journey himself with her recalling details not shared in the graveyard, and how when Neville steps forward after the Forest, Bella clearly expects him to recall details of previous conversations and delightfully brings up her torture of the Aurors, as if they've talked about it before and he was very proud of her.
Bellatrix does not behave like someone who's in unrequited love with Voldemort. She seems completely dickmatised by him lol. That's just not how people in unrequited love ever behave.
Even Voldemort moved on immediately after she died
Are you stupid? Focusing on killing his archenemy does not mean he wasn't thinking of her. Did you expect him to let Harry attack him? Voldemort was so angry and shot an Avada Kedavra at Harry right after hearing the Elder wand belongs to him, when he went out of his way and used to Nagini to kill Snape so the spell doesn't backfire. That's obviously irrational and self-destructive behaviour stemming from grief.
That ask is character bashing and low quality trolling.
