Psychological warfare

Harry: I know how to keep Voldemort out of my head!

Hermione: You finally mastered Occlumency?

Harry: No.

Ron: You found a potion?

Harry, proudly: No. I think really stupid shit, he doesn't want to hear.

Snape, walking by: There is no way this will work, Potter. The Dark Lord is way to determined.

Meanwhile at Malfoy Manor:

Voldemort, in a slurred voice, banging his head against a wall, while Bellatrix and Rodolphus try to comfort him: Hamsters are like ironing boards: Completely useless, if you have to fight submarines.

When Remus had first met Harry he, like everyone else, saw James. Saw the same square jaw and messy raven hair, but when he looked closer he found less of James.

Harry had not only his mother’s vivid green eyes, but also her nose, eyebrows and freckles. He gave the same fond look to his friends as she once had given Snape, but his grin was all his dad.

He held himself with confidence both his parents had possessed, but it lacked the arrogance that was James’. When laughing he would lift a hand to his mouth just as his mother had, sass and stubbornness all her.

The first time Harry had ever handed an essay in Remus had to do a double take. There was a bit of Lily’s writing sprinkled in, it clear in his g’s and i’s, nowhere was there any of James to be found except the last name written at the top.

It’s what scared Remus away, seeing so much of the woman that would tear him apart for abandoning her son. He was a coward, a fact that had long been proven.

And when he stared into emerald eyes he felt his chest constrict and guilt devour his soul.

I read a fic that had multiple Robins in one area (2) and realized my own idea for the Robins was a bit underdeveloped.

Dick, Jason, Tim, and Damian are all robin and will all be Robin for a year at the same time until Dick becomes Nightwing.

Their outfits are only slightly different from each other. They have pants. Dick got pants when he turned 11 and bruce couldn't deal with the kid freezing anymore.

They run around and pretend to be shapeshifters some times or just cause mass confusion (its effective)

Harry did not want to be Robin he thought the outfit was to bright to work even if it somehow does. And he like Cass's and Bruces suits better. I'm thinking of how to make his out look different but simialr at the same time. He's Blackbird so mostly black, black cape black mask you know. Maybe a dash of green to tie to the robins. Like he a green belt or his bird symbol is green.

Cass is Batgirl she has her suit with the stiches because i like that one. and the newer member I remembered existed Duke who become Signal (and I need to figure out when he enters the Brood and whether or not Bruce will legally Adopt him or just keep him as a Foster.) But his suit is good no changes.

I want them to go to Batburger and have half the kids mention they haven't had one before. (is dick from gotham? does batburger exist ouside of gotham? Is batburger cannon??)

Anyway thats my update

"Harry Potter is such a boring guy". Maybe you just can't relate to him.

Harry is for the ones who have been treated horribly by family members.

He is for the ones who were told to always be quiet and act like they didn't lived there and do all the chores around the house , to a point that cleaning now gives you some peace.

Harry is for the ones with a savior complex even if no one saved them.

Harry is for the kids that had an adult in their life, that had a vendetta against them for no known reason. (Harry didn't know it for years.)

For the ones that are a physical copy of one parent and get nonstop compared to them or even expect to replace them.

You make friends as easily as rivals. Even if you don't understand why they want to be friends with you or seek rivalry.

Harry is for the ones, that had parental figures that only used you for their own sake/glory but you made peace with it.

Harry is for the ones who had to carry the responsibility, the burden

Who always has to lead and hates it but still does it.

Is for the ones that are/were very angry teenagers and crashes out on adults without caring for consequences.

Harry is for the ones that were trained/raised for sacrifice.

He is for the ones that have so much emotions and have no chill about anything. If he hates you, you will know. If he loves you, you will know.

Harry James Potter is for the ones who don't know how societal rules work.

Harry is for the ones who love their friends aggressively.

He is for the ones that seem so confident and skillful but are so insecure and believe they're so evil but no one caught up.

Harry is for the ones that had to grow up early.

Heard Remus' argument with Harry yesterday (audiobook) and fuck did that break me.

He's just there literally pulling at his hair and I just... felt that.

The one time my guy shows something more than repression and it's because he's well and truly lost it.

I didn't even get time to appreciate that the kids actually called him Remus for a change. Absolutely wrecked.

if I still feel this depressed tomorrow I might write a remus-returns-to-tonks oneshot unless someone wants to recommend one (I'll search. It'll probably exist)

[dobbysimp]

im aware I’ve talked about this before but

REMUS AND PANDORA POST FIRST WAR

i cant stop thinking about them getting close

remus all alone, no sirius, no james, no peter, no lily, no marlene, no mary

pandora all alone, no evan, no barty, no regulus, no dorcas

its just THEM

both of them grieving and just GETTING IT bc, okay yes, a lot is bc their friends died or got imprisoned but also the fact it is ALL their friends, they are so lonely

remus that wanted as an 11yo starting at hogwarts, just fucking wanted NAY HOPED nobody would get close to him, people would stay away and not get hurt by him

remus who spirals over what ifs for months after Halloween 1981

what if they had never gotten close? never even met? maybe sirius and james would have given peter more attention; maybe he wouldn’t have gotten bitter and betrayed them; maybe he would have done it anyway but without remus in the way, without sirius and remus wasting months suspecting each other, they would have realized what peter was doing before it was too late

maybe remus would have found james as annoying as lily did for years; maybe he would have told her to not give him a chance no matter how much he changed; maybe they would have never gotten together and the prophecy would have never existed

maybe they would have all lived

and he sits and goes on rants to panda, asks her, was it worth it to be happy for a little bit even tho it ended up sad, or would it have been better if the whole thing never happened?

and pandora sits with him, lets his mind go on these other realities to cope, sometimes even lets herself consider them too, all while knowing damn well it was always going to be like this

their friendship grows with time out of genuine care for each other but also out of pure need to just, have someone

Pandora names Luna (if you didn’t know, it means Moon) after Remus, and Remus loves that kid so much, sometimes when he babysits he thinks about Harry and hopes he’s alright

Pandora and Remus starts to feel some ease. life kept going and yes its different and they miss how it was every single second of the day, they’d change everything if they could, but they’re alive, and they have each other, and there’s no war.

NOW. definitely do not think about Remus also losing Pandora, or Remus being forced to not only face Harry as his teacher rather than Uncle Moony as he should have, BUT ALSO face Luna who doesn’t really remember Remus at all same as Harry

remus watching people call Luna Looney Luna same way he was called Loopy Lupin and wanting to cry for her, because at least he had the boys. and he thinks about Pandora and how she was just as odd but people had this weird let of “don’t hurt Pandora” unspoken rule, and he feels like shit about seeing how cruel the world has gotten

plus!! remus seeing harry and luna be friends and being reminded of himself and dora

I don’t normally post about Harry Potter fandom stuff on ANY platform because I’d like to keep my head, but someone on the clock app got me FIRED UP so I present a series I’d like to call 🥁🥁🥁

Reasons I hate certain Harry Potter characters:

Part Serverus Snape

Neville Longbottom. This child has been relentlessly bullied by his peers, and instead of trying to intervene and put a stop to the bullying (like a good teacher would) this man ALSO BULLIED this child. From first year until 6th or 7th this kid was treated TERRIBLY. And to put the cherry on top of the shit sundae, in the infamous boggert scene, guess what form the boggert took when Neville had to face it? Not the woman that that tortured his parents into insanity and took them away from him when he was an infant. No. HIS TEACHER. This child’s greatest fear was a TEACHER!

Shockingly (even for me) I hate this man significantly less than I hate other characters, but I still hate him. Yes, he protected Harry in multiple scenarios, but by god he made sure to project that hatred for his dead father towards him at any chance he got. Plus, the only reason he protected him was because of his unhealthy obsession with Harry’s dead mother. To any Snape lovers that might be reading this: I respect your opinion and I’m not saying you can’t like Snape. What I AM saying is that I don’t want to hear about all the reason why I should become a Snape lover, because I promise it’s a lost cause. I loved Allen Rickman as an actor for him, and I think he played the character very well (may he rest in peace) but that is the extent of my love for Snape.

describing harry as "an insanely athletic man" while all he does is sit on a flying broom is crazy work

Harry Potter and Albus Dumbledore

[hollowed-theory-hall]

What are some of book Harry’s shining traits as a character that the movies seem to gloss over?

I haven't watched the movies in a while, but I'd go with his cleverness, intuition, and ability to stay cool externaly being the most overlooked. Movie!Harry is still a resilient character, if more passive and in a different flavor than book!Harry, but it's there. In the first 3 movies, there are some moments of Harry's iconic sass as well, though the later movies forgot his sass altogether. But what I think bothers me the most are the first two traits I mentioned: his cleverness and intuition.

I wrote whole posts about Harry's cleverness and intelligence (here & here & here) and his intuition (here). Harry is the one who figures out a lot of things in the books. From the Philosopher's Stone and that Dumbledore was led away by the thief (even if he was wrong about the thief) to figuring out the Horcruxes locations and that Voldemort is after the Elder Wand. He is far from stupid and his intelligence and quick wit are the source of many of his wins in the books.

Again, I haven't watched the movies in a while, but scenes like Hermione hitting Harry with a paper because he's being an idiot in HBP is so far from who Harry and Hermione are in the book — mostly because book!Harry isn't an idiot and book!Hermione knows that!

Book!Harry is calm under pressure and comes up with plans when shit hits the fan. In OotP in the ministry, everyone (including Hermione) looks to Harry for a plan. Because Harry is witty and good at thinking on his feet. Something I don't remember getting from movie!Harry.

Movie!Harry also lacks the cold facade book!Harry has.

In the HBP, movie!Harry struggles to awkwardly manage the Quiddich tryouts. Book!Harry shouts at the girls that shouldn't be there to fucking leave, and he's not awkward about it at all, just annoyed at them. In OotP, movie!Harry spits on himself when Cho waves at him, book!Harry is covered in mimbulus mimbletonia juices and still keeps his chill:

“Oh ... hello, Harry,” said a nervous voice. “Um ... bad time?” Harry wiped the lenses of his glasses with his Trevor-free hand. A very pretty girl with long, shiny black hair was standing in the doorway smiling at him: Cho Chang, the Seeker on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. “Oh ... hi,” said Harry blankly. “Um ...” said Cho. “Well ... just thought I’d say hello ... ’bye then.” She closed the door again, rather pink in the face, and departed. Harry slumped back in his seat and groaned.

Harry is annoyed at the impression it created, but he isn't showing it to Cho, he doesn't act awkwardly at all. Cho is the one acting awkwardly when meeting Harry, not the other way around. Even when Harry is awkward, it's not the stumbling over himself awkwardness, it's the "I don't know how to comfort Hermione so I'll just throw Ron's blanket on her and not say anything" awkwardness. When he's embarrassed or awkward, he just stays cold and silent and a bit robotic for the most part. At worst he'd go: "Er..." blush a little and look at you blankly, but more often he'd just get annoyed. He isn't going to spit on himself. God, that one gif is the bane of my existence.

Movie!Harry does not have the coolness under pressure or wit and intuition of book!Harry. These are the first that came to mind, but there are a lot of other traits that are different or missing. These are just the traits that would be very obvious to someone looking at Harry from outside (like the movies do). And these are the traits I find missing most often in fanon interpretations of his character.

[wisteria-lodge]

I do think it is cool, in a story kind of way, if the Elder Wand has a slightly different mechanism for choosing it's master than your typical wand. (also yeah, the wand lore stuff in Book 7 is a mess, the movies try to explain it/make it clearer but kind of don't, and... the mechanics of wand lore is not especially what I want Harry and Voldemort talking about during their big confrontation.)

But I also like finding alternate ways of making it work, and here's mine. I do think it's interesting if the Elder wand goes to whoever is the most powerful person in a conflict, because "power" can be an interesting, nebulous thing, and that can get into, idk, themes and stuff. My very first HP meta was a kind of Grindeldore thing, where the wand's power shifted to Dumbledore because he was the one willing to imprison the man he loved for the rest of his life... and Grindelwald wasn't. I also think this is fun to examine when it comes to Dumbledore's extended, planned, suicide-by-Snape. If that had worked, then I think Dumbledore would have broken the power of the wand: if his murder was actually just an extension of his own power, he would have died uncontested, and I think that was the plan.

The transfer over to Draco is by far the messiest, I am not even a little surprised that there are a ton of theories about how he was never the master. I don't mind that: I think it's funny if both Dumbledore and Voldemort were blindsided by... underestimating Draco Malfoy. Also I think it's funny that Draco realizes he was the master of the most powerful wand... immediately after he isn't anymore.

Which gets into my own headcannony interpretation of the duel on the tower, which almost certainly isn't intended by the text, but which *is* fun to think about. See, I think it's kinda cool that Dumbledore dies in a three-way duel, just like the one that killed Ariana which he was never quite able to process. I do think Dumbledore puts Harry and Ariana in the same category - the innocent he has to protect but possibly sacrifice. And if that's the case... then Draco becomes Aberforth - just here to protect his family but completely out of his depth and kind of a liability, and Severus is Grindelwald - dark, brilliant, and one of the closest relationships Dumbledore has. I think there's a lot going on in his head at that moment, and it would be cool if it (unintentionally) bled into how the Elder Wand perceives the situation.

So when Draco disarms him (when Dumbledore lets Draco disarm him...) there's a lot going on with Dumbledore's angst about not being able to protect innocents, about Aberforth really never forgiving him, about if how Draco will just agree to be saved that will mean something. So maybe in a weird way Draco does have power over him, in that instant, in that moment.

And then Malfoy Manor is easy. Even though Harry physically took Draco's wands from him, and didn't magically disarm him - Draco is lost, conflicted, and seems to want Harry to win. (I mean Harry defeats Voldemort with Draco's "friendly" wand, and unicorn cores are loyal, I don't think he could have done that if Draco hadn't wanted him to win.) Harry is clearly more powerful. Same thing with his confrontation in the woods - Voldemort is scared, of Harry, of death, of all sorts of things while Harry is at peace, surrounded by his loved ones, not scared of Voldemort even slightly. So the wand perceives him as more powerful.

(and I have no idea what was going on with Grindelwald and Gregorovitch. Grindelwald/Dumbledore/Gregorovitch love triangle??? :D)

How the Elder Wand Choses its Master

So, this is a short theory, but it is an interesting one and I kinda wanna make note of it anyways. And that is:

I don't think the Elder Wand allegiance works the way we're told.

To clarify, I don't think the Elder Wand passes to whoever defeats its master. I have a few reasons to think that, and I'll cover them here.

Firstly, it doesn't make sense. Like, the legend of the Elder Wand is that it's udefeatable. An unbeatable wand whose wielder can never lose. Except, the wielder does lose, and often. It's how the ownership supposedly transfers from one master to another. We're told Dumbledore won the Elder Wand when he defeated Grindlewald in a duel. We see Draco win its allegiance when he disarms Dumbledore.

It just doesn't make sense for both legends to exist simultaneously. How can an unbeatable wand be won in a duel? The whole point is that it's impossible to win against it.

Secondly, its allegiance clearly doesn't work the way the legend says it does. So, if we look at the ending of the books, as an example, Dumbledore was the master of the Elder Wand, and then Draco disarmed him, becoming the master. Harry disarmed Draco from a different wand and became the master like that. Then Voldemort kills Harry in the forest, but Harry is still the master of the Elder Wand?

I mean, Voldemort killed Snape to become the master of the Elder Wand (when he thought Snape was the master), but when he killed Harry, it didn't help him. So killing Snape was useless?

Like, we outright see that defeating the master doesn't make you the master when Voldemort kills Harry.

(And if it was because Harry threw the fight, then Draco shouldn't have become the master after Dumbledore because Dumbledore didn't fight Draco by choice)

So what does? How does the allegiance change?

Well, Ollivanders tells us exactly how: "the wand chooses the wizard"

This is just as true for the Elder Wand as any other wand.

What I think the Elder Wand does is that it chooses its wizard. Essentially, in a duel where one wizard has the Elder Wand, the Elder Wand chooses its preferred owner and then chooses who wins. If it wants its current master to win, it's unbeatable. If the wand decides it wants the opponent, though, it chooses who it wants to madter it and throws the fights it's in.

It's why Dumbledore defeated Grindlewald and won its allegiance — the Wand chose Dumbledore.

It's why killing Harry in the forest didn't make Voldemort the master of the Elder Wand — the Wand already chose Harry, so Voldemort was never it's master. It's possible Draco was never the Elder Wand's master either and that it was Harry since the moment Dumbledore died, we can't tell for sure.

So that's it, kind of a short theory, but one I find interesting nonetheless.

[solosolace]

How many of you enjoy the Whistle chirp and click language headcanon some people have with the batfam.

Also can Parsletonge be learned, 'cause Dumbledore understands it and Ron and slightly speak it to get into the chamber.

Idk just like the Batfam having their own language no one else can speak and Damian and Harry just chirping or hissing in the common room to the shock of their fellow Slytherin.
