I’m glad there were just 3 Hallows, and rather wished there were about that many Horcruxes.
Shortly after I arrived at SHU a student compared me to Lupin, so I’ve followed his arc through the books with interest. Lots of subplots to tie up. The “WTF was that all about” King’s Cross info-dump was nicely mixed with character development; very glad there wasn’t a cringe-worthy “deus ex midi-chlorian” moment, though the many cameos during the battles were a bit like the “At the Dance” ballroom skits from the Muppet Show — couples whirl into frame, exchange a few lines, then whirl out of frame to make room for another.
Never could figure out what Hermione sees in Ron.
Overall, though, yes, that was satisfying.
Weirdly beautiful. Wonderful bit of game history exploring why the code for the 1993 game…
I guess now we know why for the past decade or so Google doesn't seem…
Enjoyed making a 3D print of the captain’s chair from the #steampunk bedtime stories I…
This actually happened the other day when I was offline.

I LOVED Ron and Hermy! Their opposites are what make their relationship for me. The balance between her seriousness and intellect vs Ron's playfulness is perfect.
I somewhat agree re: Ron and Hermione, but I wouldn't want anything to screw up Harry and Ginny, which is one of my favorite romantic relationships in fiction. They're just terrific.
I always liked the relationship- she recognized in him someone who would love her fiercely and completely.
Agree that the Weasley family is wonderful, with flawed but loving people.
Just a little trivia. Rowling has stated that she made Hermione like Ron for personal reasons back when she first started writing the series but if she had to do it over again she would have put Hermione with Harry. Oh well.
Ron is the skinny version of the Default Sitcom Husband.
Read the play. He gets more... how he is.
Default sitcom husband *wizard*.
I SOLEMNLY SWEAR I AM UP TO NO GOOD
Apparently there would have been a lot more allusions and symbolism to the series if Jerz was the editor and creative consultant...rosebud...?
"Pumpkin juice is made of people"??
THAT'S why my pumpkin juice tastes like it's missing something. Next time, I'm using real humans instead of imitation humans.

Well, not all the spoilers I had heard turned out to be accurate.
I don't think anyone but JK Rowling can figure out what Hermione sees in Ron.
Glad to know I'm not an outlier there.
