Harry Potter Challenge Days 23 & 24

Day 23: Parts of the books or films that made you cry?

Oh god, okay.  Well let’s start with the books…

Cedric’s death.  Sirius’s death.  Dumbledore’s death.  The entirety of Deathly Hallows.  Not fucking kidding on that last one, guys.

Movies, it’s pretty much the same scenarios.  I don’t always cry at these moments with each rewatch, except one in particular.  Every time, and I mean every single time that I watch Deathly Hallows pt 2, I ball like a baby when Harry sees Lupin, Tonks, and Fred.  Like, hysterical can’t breathe crying.  I’m a very emotional person, okay?

God, I’m tearing up just looking over Tumblr for these pics.

Day 24: Any particular scene you wish was in the movies that wasn’t?

Well, like previously said, there are things missing that bum me out.  The Department of Mysteries and Peeves especially.  But if we’re talking one specific scene…

That one.  Also, all the sass was missing from the movies.

Harry Potter Challenge Day 7

Favorite Female Character and Why

I think it’s probably what a lot of HP fans who are a girls would say, but Hermione.  I dealt with loneliness and isolation when I was younger.  When I started reading Harry Potter, I identified with her.  And I still do.  She’s smart, strong, selfless, brave, and will do anything to protect the people she loves.  She freaking wiped herself from her parents’ memories to protect them.

If I were to pick someone other than her, I would pick Tonks.  She’s funny, a Hufflepuff, and falls in love with Lupin to make the cutest couple ever!  Her untimely end still kills me, and I wish we would have gotten to see more of her, especially her family dynamic.
