Steal my heart and hold my tongue
1. Squee: There is no way Dan and Bonnie will ever look this good together. Oh, you pretty, pretty things. *pets* (why yes, I am filled with OTP gooeyness at the moment; feel free to ignore me. ♥) Y'know, I may love a lot of other pairings. I may write more of them. But I will always come back home to you, BBs. ♥♥♥
*makes a few icons* ETA: nabbed this from ONTD. See for more HBP pics, especially Luna, Ron and Draco. *g*
Side note to WB hair ppl: Stop lightening Emma's hair.
Not yet sure I'll watch the film; we'll see.
2. Pimpety-pimp: We're always on the lookout for characters at
road_ahead and I've got a couple recent openings to pimp. Pardon me while I jack Inell's post wholesale:
Millicent Bulstrode (about to finish her NEWTs, trying to figure out what to do with herself after school, and dealing with a widowed father who has recently started dating again), Penelope Clearwater (trying to find her missing family, figuring out what to do with her life), Anthony Goldstein (about to finish his NEWTs and figuring out what to now), Augusta Longbottom (Neville's gran!), and Zach Smith (finishing NEWTs and figuring out his future). All of these characters have in-game interaction and friends around for playing, so there's no worries about not being able to be active.
road_ahead has been going since mid-October last year, and it's active and wonderful. In-game, the students in Harry's year are preparing for NEWTs, which they're being allowed to take in the next two weeks after a vigorous class schedule to prepare them. The Ministry is finishing up trials and investigations into war-time events, and the world is slowly rebuilding and changing. However, not everyone has changed, and there are still problems and concerns in the world. It's especially a great time for a student Harry's age to come into the game, since there are many things changing in the upcoming weeks for them.
The players are a mixture of new to RP and old pros, which provides a great environment for everyone. The emphasis is on characterization and interaction, so it's a wonderful opportunity to develop a character post-DH in a canon-plausible setting. The game focuses on realism versus crack or simply smut/shipping, which isn't for everyone. The Mods are actively involved, so if you prefer an environment where they aren't, it's not the game for you. The Mods will totally help get you up to speed, as will other players! It's really is an amazing cast, and just a lovely creative environment. The application is here, and just needs to be sent to rarmods@gmail.com once complete. I'm at hnicole83@gmail.com if you have any questions.
3. Oh, I dunno. I have to get back to work. :P

OMG. you're asolutely right, Dan and bonnie would never be that good together. H/Hr for life. Thank you. lol.
I have been debating about the films as well. Meh, iono, the last movie I bought was GoF and I saw a bad quality of OoTP [because i was in camp, shhh]. Je ne se pas.
no subject
Chances are good that I'll cave and watch it, though.
no subject
And yes, yesterday I was just telling my friend how I want to buy OoTP. I think its because its Harry Potter, that's all. hahaha.

There's a spread in USA Today and a couple other things. Some good ones of Ron and Draco, too. :D

she is getting blonder and blonder for sure, the emma haters will have a field day.

Yeah, the Emma haters will definitely be making noise. She does get blonder with each new film. :P

But I will bitch and moan after/during, lol.
Neville now being included in Slughorn's potions class (as per the picture) just one in a loooooooooooooooooooooooooong list of gripes I have about the movie, though surprisingly, one of the least important. The other movies never bothered me that much, this one and DH it seems - they aren't going to even resemble the books. Grrrr. Not that I don't have gripes with the books, but...they are canon.
Sorry. Back to your regularly schedule programming. I still can't stop snickering at the picture that makes Ron look like he's mentally handicapped, lol.
no subject
And yes! Neville absolutely did not take NEWT Potions. -_-'
*snerk* That pic of Ron had me giggling, too.

And...apparently not. The movies are the entity onto themselves, especially towards the end of the series. I'm surprised enough they're keeping the couplings the same, given how they muck around with other major canon events, never mind that tiny little detail of how old everybody is.
no subject
I've given up trying to figure out what the movie makers are thinking. If I didn't, my head would explode.
no subject
Or perhaps really nobody cares about that subplot except me and never bothered reporting on any changes, ha.
no subject
Why don't they just say "Hey guys, consider this like the James Bond movies....we just take the title and throw away the rest of the book"?
Seriosly thinking I won't go see the last movies unless I start to see some signs of Matt or Alfie goodness.
And I don't hate Emma (it's not her fault Steve Kloves makes Hermione a one note shrew) but come on....at least make some gesture towards Hermione not caring about her looks. In all the promo's she looks like she just came from a Vogue shoot.
no subject
NO WAI!
LOLOLOLOLOLOL.
no subject
And yeah, they took a LOT of liberties with canon (all the Gryffs in Potions, the love potion thing with Ron, the utter lack of any substantial plot that I've heard of so far, which was the only thing the book had going for it) but that's not too surprising I suppose. I'm probably still going to see it so I can bitch about it after. :P
Hee, I'm looking forward to Matt and especially Alfie as well. Also, yes, Emma looks probably a little (a lot) more gorgeous than she should. LOL. Not to mention how relatively unattractive they made Lavender look. But maybe that's just the nasty expression on her face.

I can only imagine the kind of icons that'll be made once that scene is screencapped. :P
