I need a show about a boy witch being friends with a girl wizard. We need to stop falling for the JK Rowling propaganda that they’re just opposite genders of the same thing because NO THEY’RE NOTTT Stop treating JK Rowling like she’s smart or knows thingssss

So we are getting a Harry Potter reboot, but I actually want a The Marauders movie. I need to see young Sirius, I need Regulus and Marlene on my screen. I need the Black Brothers, I need Wolfstar

JK Rowling doesn't care about women, but some of you aren't ready for that conversation.

I have a fear that, like, I accidentally reblogged H'rry P'tter stuff, or that I accidentally reblogged from a Harry Potter fan and didn't know, or that there's some post BEFORE I knew the whole deal with H'rry P'tter, so like, if there's any of that, do tell me, and I'll just delete the original post I made, and make a replacement post about something else, or that includes something iconic I said, if the original had some iconic stuff.

Vent about people still supporting H'rry P'tter or something:

Also, no idea how to convince some not-exactly-supportive people why NOT to buy Harry Potter stuff, and I hate that, like, my (former-stepbro-but-still) bro's sister, like, came to my birthday, and like, she's young and all, and she had a H'rry P'tter shirt, and I don't remember which year I learned that "death of the author" can't apply when it comes to Harry Potter, but at least I knew by THEN, so THAT'S fecking awkward - also, like, how Youtubers still post about it or reference it, and how my younger brother has a second-hand H'rry P'tter Lego castle (or HAD - I don't really know) - AND how there's still talk about H'rry P'tter and use of ChatGPT and a H'rry P'tter puzzle a place that I go to for, like, school/job purposes, not saying which - (it's my last year today by the way though) - so THAT also sucks, but also my younger bro, is also a FNAF kid, and the creator of THAT voted Trump in at least 1 year, so, like, I don't really know what to say, but I do have 1 person who would listen (not that I expect them to be a H'rry P'tter fan), so yeah I'm telling them (my window-homie), once we meet, that, like, just DON'T support Fnaf and H'rry P'tter and ChatGPT, so yeah - I mean I guess people in this country are just generally unaware - and I somehow was too, for long - (I mean it doesn't help that I didn't fully know/that some people could swear on their life they enjoy H'rry P'tter and don't support the JK person, and that it's possible and whatnot - and man, I do be having a fear that people would think it's NOT possible to be this unaware, or to happen to not have done enough research, or to just not have thought/not have been able to think about it enough - I don't know what is up with me - but like, yeah) - and, like, I was never a P'tterhead, but my opinion on Harry Potter doesn't matter, it matters that feck it, I don't support it.

do you guys think if I was in Harry Potter my name would be Lee Faggót or would she go with Trannie Crosslove?

Rant about Peter Pettigrew and JK's Shit Writing

I hate how he is portrayed because, in my opinion, it just doesn't align with the backstory we have.

Let me preface, I am not a Golden Trio HP fan, but a Marauders fan. So, a lot of my takes and characterisations are heavily fanon-influenced, especially since a lot of the characters I write/read about we know very little of. To add, the characters we do see and interact with in the books are the grown, traumatised versions of themselves. Naturally, as adolescents, before the first war, Azkaban, the death of all their friends, the birth of their children, etcetera, they'd behave differently.

Onto Peter. Peter is one of the biggest cowards and lowlives in the HP universe. He's so heavily devoted to Voldemort despite being pissless-scared of him and doesn't hold a damn candlelight to nearly any of the characters in terms of bravery, strength, or the ability to hide his intentions and cowardice.

On that note, we're supposed to believe he managed to trick two of the smartest students at Hogwarts into changing him to Secret Keeper over Sirius or Remus, who we see as much more competent, brave, and intelligent as well as loyal? Really? That he'd managed to trick so many people into believing that Sirius betrayed them?

It would make more sense, then, to have Peter be a much more secretive, deceptive character. To be written with a backbone. (I read once that someone envisioned Peter to sort of be like Oliver from Saltburn. Mousy, quiet, but incredibly smart, sly, and manipulative.)

This is just one of my many gripes with JK Rowling's writing, though. If not for the nostalgia, or had I read Harry Potter at this age, I doubt I would've liked it as much. The world-building is poor, the characters' ambitions are screwed, and Harry, for some-fucking-reason, chooses to become a Wizard Cop despite all the atrocities he went through. He names his kid after SNAPE?! All because the man loved his mother? And then DUMBLEDORE?! Who is as awful, if not worse, of a villain than Voldemort.

It's a kid series, I understand, but I wish there were more consitencies with the characters.

Edit:

It's been so long since I read the series so I've been corrected. Again, I'm a Mauraders fan so I have a different perspective and analysis of the characters.

It was Sirius who made the decision to switch the Keeper to being Peter. Golden Trio fans see Peter as a character that just never resonated with the Marauders and used them as shields, but I find that narrative hard to believe simply because of where I am in the fandom.

I like how @fanfic-lover-girl explained it in their reblog.

I still don't like how he was written. I do think his appeal is in how weak he is, but I feel like that weakness only falls into cowardice. I think I'm also being hypercritical because I don't like JKR and the plot devices/holes.

Still agree with the sentiment of fuck JKR, though.
