on my knees for u….what thoughts about fleur

hello my beloved!!!!!

me and kara got into her narrative in goblet of fire, and how everything we’re percieving about her is from harry’s pov. like i remember reading the books and being so like.. shocked ?? when it was revealed she was engaged to bill. because it didn’t really make sense to how she was introduced, and molly sort of mirrors that confusion with her anti fleur agenda. it’s such a leap !!! harry views her as this representation of feminity but in the weak sense, disregarding her as a component almost immediately. she’s so effortlessly beautiful and lovely and girls hate her and boys objectify her so people (harry) literally forgets that she was the chosen one from her school out of everyone who entered their names into the goblet !! + contrary to the film’s depiction of beauxbatons, it isn’t actually a girls school in the books. but still, harry looks at her and all he sees is girl. like harry doesn’t even really speak to her in gof and everything we know about her so far is his observations, men fawning over her how beautiful she is and girls hating her. <- harry your sexism is showing..

and then at the burrow, harry actually gets to know fleur first hand, and i think that’s why it feels like such a leap narratively that she ends up with bill. because it doesn’t fall in line with how harry thought of her in gof.

i think fleur has a lot of rage on the inside, very fiery and a lot more competitive and more of a threat than people actually understand. she’s canonically a quidditch player and still she’s described as this frail beautiful thing that’ll surely break if you’re too rough. people don’t view her as a person even, which is also interesting because she’s quite literally part creature !!! in all honesty, she’s probably a lot like book!ginny and the two of them would probably get along really well if ginny’s could get past her own internalized misogyny

which is why i think fleur & butch post-war ginny end up having an affair behind bills back :~) 💖💖
