Thread response post #3
A LOT of interesting storylines have been running lately. Anyone who has a second, link to a thread or two of interest, and a comment about it, and I'll copy it into the post.
Here are mine:
-Whoever guessed the Mirror of Erised would be in Buckingham Palace was correct. We still need to figure out what Harry saw, though.
-The kids wonder how Muggles ever got along without wizard favors. That's like taking the wands away from wizards and then wondering how they ever got from place to place without cars.
-I cheered at Tonks breaking free of the Crouches.
-The sympathy between Pansy and Sirius is great. "Hello, dangerous criminal." "Hullo, rabble-rouser." I hope they get a chance to meet in person someday. Also, Remus and Sirius's interactions are so sad.
-Amycus's evil Christmas message made me laugh.
-At 11, shouldn't Harry be too old for "let's be friends because our parents are friends"? It struck me as another example of how he is oddly childish sometimes, which I suspect is due to an upbringing where he was rarely encouraged to think for himself or take care of himself.

-I found Draco's Christmas post very interesting: "Mostly, I wish that things and people would just let Harry alone! He's never done a bad thing to anyone and he's a much pleasanter person than me, so, I wish that... they would just let him be." For the most part, Draco's been staying in his canon character, and I found this outburst of genuine empathy touching and intriguing. He must mean all the, ah, attention Harry's receiving after bumping into the Mirror.
