I guess the only problem I have with people making certain characters POC in HP, is that they don’t take into account that these characters were born into huge families (that are inbred). So I guess the bottom line would be….make the entire fucking family (all the families in the sacred 28) POC.
Well, why not make them all POC? What's stopping us from assuming that any of the families were non-white, making any number of their descendants mixed race?
I most certainly did take into account that the pureblood characters are born into huge families and that there's certainly intermarriage between them, but I think it's naive to assume that the only way for these families to stay completely "pureblood" is for them to exclusively marry each other/inbreed. If there are pureblood families in England I'm sure there are also pureblood families in every other country in the world. Nothing is stopping them from marrying purebloods from other countries/nationalities?
Also, the Potters aren't technically part of the "sacred 28.". I think it makes sense that if the Potters -- notably referred to as purebloods -- aren't a part of this group because they came to England from another country.

Questions:
1. If you have a favorite video game, whats one thing special about that video game to your heart?
FFXII's gambit system is the best thing the franchise has come up with, and that includes Kefka. I will seriously fight anyone who says otherwise.
2. What is one thing you’d change about your favorite show, or how your favorite show is currently running (like any problems as little as budget to major like sexism or racism)?
I'd take out the panty shots from Sailor Moon. There's no reason for them, and they ruin an otherwise perfect show.
Or I'd take the massive amounts of stupidity out of DC's management.
3. What is one thing you wanted to watch, try, read but never did so even if you’ve been meaning to?
I keep meaning to watch Once Upon a Time and catch up w Game of Thrones, but I haven't gotten to it just yet. Maybe this summer.
4. If you made a motivational quote to people what would it be? (if you can’t think of anything or if you want to post something funny you can be witty as well)
Dude I can't even motivate myself how the hell am I supposed to motivate anyone else?
5. Who are your role models in life? Specific people don’t have to mentioned, or you could even say fictional characters or things that make you comfortable.
Meenah Peixes 38D
And Ten'oh Haruka
Also Akuma Homura, just to show you how skewed my priorities are.
6. If you were a character in a fictional novel what would be your motivations, goals? Hero? Villain?
I'd be the villain, trying to take over the world.
7. What fictional character or real life person if you prefer, do you relate to the most?
I relate to the Strider-Lalondes from Homestuck to an unhealthy extent, which is the only way one can relate to them, tbqh.
8. What is your favorite video game song or soundtrack song from any media such as movies or television?
"Magia" from Madoka Magica is stuck in my head rn. Also "Candles and Clockwork (Alpha Version)" from Homestuck is gorgeous and absolutely worth listening to for days on end.
9. What was one thing that truly made you happy, like as happy as you possibly could be?
My cat
10. Favorite underrated character or person?
Suzy Turquoise Blue from the Keys to the Kingdom series. Or Faith Lehane from Buffy.
