The Great Big Harry Potter Squee Bonanza

[sophieisgod]

This is it, my friends. The end is near. In a fortnight, it will all be over.

Basically, my Harry Potter Hysteria is reaching unchartable levels of nostalgia and squee, so I thought I would do the decent thing and encourage my fellow fanatics to engage in a wise and nuanced exchange of ideas (and SQUEE) about this monumentous literary occasion (I told you I was getting excited. This isn't healthy).

Basically... I want theories, I want memories, I want fic and video recs, I want favourite moments, favourite characters, thoughts on the films and any other jazz that might apply.

Please, guys. If I don't have an outlet for my excitement my head will explode and I'll die. Do you want that on your collective conscience, flisties? DO YOU?

Yours in pathetc desperation (and SQUEE),
Sophie

*runs over with Prongs icon galloping alongside*

I'm here for the HP love!! I don't want it to end :o( AND I WANT SIRIUS BACK. I think JK needs to write more Marauder scenes, personally. Preferably an OOTP-sized gargantuan scene.

Btw, did you see JK Rowling on Jonathan Ross on Friday? She seems so nice :D

You made it! I don't want it to end either, I love them too damn much!

Do you think if we sent her enough strongly worded letters she would write a bid big big Marauders book? And that Jonathan Ross interview was so cute. Although she worried me with her use of the word 'bloodbath'...

Come on, then! Favourite stuff! Fond remembrances!

*pets Prongs*

A Marauders book would be the most amazing thing ever. She would never refuse the requests of Strongly Worded Letters, surely?

Favourite stuff and fond remembrances... SIRIUS BLACK. :D Who is not dead. I never actually finished POA on my first reading of it because HP gave me nightmares. *blushes* It was actually more through fic than the books that I fell in love with the Marauders.

Surely nothing is beyond the power of Strongly Worded Letters?! We can and must do this!

Yeah, from what I've been reading (and personal exoerience) most people fall in love with the idea of the Marauders and then use fic to flesh out the characters a bit more (SHOEBOX OMG &HEARTZ!!!) I do love Sirius a lot (but Remus more, I'm a geek and I loves him), he's like a film star. Even after his death and I do think he is dead the stuff JKR was writing about him shaking his dark hair back and so forth made me swoon a little bit. Plus he's got that whole arrested development thing going on, like Peter Pan but sexy, which is heartbreaking. And Gasry Oldman is awesome. And you know what happens in this film...

Dear Ms Rowling... We have some Strong Words for you.

A sexy Peter Pan? Haven't heard him described as that before. :P

No, I don't know what happens in this film. I don't. I don't. Nuh uh. *not in denial*

[sophieisgod.livejournal.com]

Maybe even stronger than that! *pauses as if expecting somebody to cry "surely not!", a la Ernie Macmillan in OotP*

I can't think of good words for him, he's too cool!

So what do you think he is, if you don't think he's dead? Are you clingiing to the mirror thing?

[clouded-logic.livejournal.com]

SURELY NOT!!!!11111111!!eleventy!!!11

Er... he's just not dead. And he'll be back! (I'm not very good with theories.)

I'm off to watch Life On Mars! Thank God for BBC4 repeats. :D
