Can you guys suggest me some very good Harry potter x reader writers here? I'm so tired of searching and getting fanfics of every charecter other than Harry 😭

[miraculouslymadsblog]

Few reasons why I don't like the charecter of Albus Dumbledore. I have been a potterhead for an decade, and I don't really like his charecter, and here are the reasons why:-

At first glance, Dumbledore is one of the good guys of the Harry Potter series. He’s the benevolent headmaster of Hogwarts, he helps Harry fight Voldemort, and he comes across as nothing but friendly – for the first few books, at least.

But Dumbledore is actually one of the most complex characters in the series, because if you look more deeply, your opinion will probably change. Mine certainly did. As the books go on, little details are revealed about Dumbledore that suggest he might not be the kindly old grandfather he was portrayed to be at first.

If you’re not convinced, this list will do the trick – I’ve found the 15 top reasons why we should actually all hate Dumbledore. And believe me, the list isn’t exhaustive!

He Took The House Cup From Slytherin

(That was really unfair thing to do for the Slytherins)

For the kids of Gryffindor, this was a really nice move. The supposedly evil Slytherin House thought they’d won the house cup and then Dumbledore swoops in there with some house points for Gryffindor and they just overtake Slytherin. The house points were deserved–Harry fought off Voldemort, he deserved more than house points–but this was an incredibly cruel way to do it. Not all of Slytherin are mean bullies, and there are kids as young as 11 in that house – so to casually pull out the rug from under them in front of the whole school was actually kind of petty and horrible.

This is the only time in the books when I actually felt I was on Draco Malfoy’s side. Dumbledore was definitely biased here, and he could have handled this far more tactfully.

He Lied To Harry Potter himself

Dumbledore knew Harry was going to have to die eventually. Sure, he knew he might be able to bounce back from it because of the Horcrux but ultimately, it was a totally untested theory because it had never been done before. Even then, he was still absolutely willing to bring Harry up and let him go and die without even telling him why. What?!

I can understand this when he was a child. No 11-year-old is going to take that well. But as Harry matured quicker than any child (ever) because of what he’d been through and was forced to become a brave, selfless man, there was absolutely no good reason to keep lying to him. Sure, Dumbledore admitted he’d handled this badly, but there’s not really an excuse for that when it was Harry’s life being lied about.

He Was In Love With Grindelwald

Do people really change their spots that much? Dumbledore was literally hanging around, being best friends with the darkest wizard to ever grace the world, aside from Voldemort and maybe Salazar Slytherin himself. He says himself it was because he was blinded, but Dumbledore’s a clever guy – how blinded could he have been, really? He was willing to pal around with Grindelwald for as long as it suited him, until the duel that killed his sister. It took the actual death of his sister to realize that Grindelwald might not be a good guy after all.

It seems harsh not to give him a second chance, but he was friends with Grindelwald while being fully aware of what he wanted to do. Come on, man.

…And Really Believed Some Of Those Ideals

More than that – J.K. Rowling showed us exchanges between Dumbledore and Grindelwald that make it hard to believe he only loved Grindelwald and didn’t agree with the ideals he espoused. He truly thought that magical people were better than non-magical people. That was something he actually thought, and it’s hard to believe that only Grindelwald persuaded him to think this, because that’s a pretty big deal. Sure, he wasn’t quite on a level of wanting to massacre every Muggle and Muggle-born in sight like Voldemort was, but his morals definitely weren’t as high and mighty as he tries to portray them to be by the time he’s around Harry. 'Magic is might' is nothing short of prejudice and discrimination, and Dumbledore once took his part in that. Ew.

He Handled Harry’s Pseudo-Possession Poorly

Not only did he lie to Harry – he actively kept him in the dark when Harry might have been starting to catch on because he was literally being possessed by Lord Voldemort. Well, kind of. Voldemort was edging his way into Harry’s head and pretty much making him crazy. He was influencing Harry’s emotions to be more like his own, making him angry and spiteful, turning his entire world dark – and how did Dumbledore handle this? By ignoring Harry and letting him spiral because he was worried Voldemort would try and get to him through Harry.

This was seriously selfish AF. Dumbledore might try and say he had Harry’s best intentions at heart, but considering how broken and angsty Harry was in book five, I’m not convinced.

He Was Responsible For Sirius’ Death

Not only did he ruin Harry’s life, he ruined Sirius’. He ruined Sirius in the worst way possible, and was definitely responsible for Sirius’ death.

Look. Harry might blame himself for this one because Sirius was rushing to save him, but what was Dumbledore thinking when he made Sirius stay in the home that he was neglected in and probably abused in for his entire childhood? The Black family were not good people. They were insane blood supremacists. Sirius ended up being murdered by his own cousin. And yet, here’s Dumbledore, thinking it’s okay to lock him up in that house 24/7. Did he seriously believe that it wouldn't drive him to do anything rash or self-destructive? Do you know Sirius, Dumbledore?!

Sirius, was notorious for being impulsive and passionate. Thanks, Dumbledore.

He Let The House-Elf Enslavement Continue

Wow. Dumbledore offered to pay the house-elves a tiny amount for their service and give them bare minimum work vacations – therefore, he’s a saint, right?

No. The house-elves were still slaves and Dumbledore was doing very little to try and change that. You’re the headmaster of a magic school. Magic doesn’t allow food to be brought from thin air. I know, this is canon – but is Dumbledore trying to say it couldn’t have been used for food preparation or cleaning? Or that a school with that much money couldn’t have paid the house-elves a living wage or employed actual people?

Sure, the house-elves would have refused, initially – but Dumbledore wasn’t willing to try very hard to change the slave culture surrounding them. Clearly he had more important things to worry about, like lying to Harry…

He Left Harry With The Dursleys

I can hear Dumbledore's excuses already. He would probably say that Harry was only safe under the roof of a blood relative... that they were his only blood relatives left.

The thing is, though, he wasn’t safe. Not by any stretch of the imagination. He was neglected and abused until he left that house, and for the first 11 years of his life, he felt completely strange and unwanted. That’s damaging to any kid, and Dumbledore is lucky Harry turned out as selfless as he did, or all of his plans to defeat Voldemort would have been dashed.

Anyway. Sure, Voldemort couldn’t hurt him under their roof, but Harry went wandering off on his own so many times because he hated that house, and Voldemort could have easily snatched him off the street at some point. The only thing putting Harry did was keeping order in the magical world -- it literally had nothing to do with Harry's own wellbeing.

He Didn’t Protect Harry From The Triwizard Tournament

I want to know what Dumbledore was thinking when he decided to let the Triwizard Tournament run its course and let Harry compete, rather than pulling him out immediately. It was clear that Harry didn’t enter himself. It couldn’t have been more obvious—even in the beginning—that there was some serious dark magic at play. Like, literally, this has *never* happened before in the history of Hogwarts, so what the hell was he thinking? Dumbledore is supposed to be hella smart and know tons about magic (both dark and good). And what does Dumbledore do? Shrug and sit back, almost as if he’s too curious to see what will happen to actually bother protecting Harry.

Nice. This really showed us who actually cared about Harry, Dumbledore. Look at how this one turned out in the end.

He Lets Dangerous Things Happen At Hogwarts

Via: Giphy

Dumbledore doesn’t seem to give a sh*t that his school is overrun by dangerous things. It’s right next to the Forbidden Forest, which is known for werewolves and other dangerous creatures that could kill someone – and yet, at no point ever does he attempt to clear out the forest. In fact, he actually lets a detention happen IN it... at night. Um, what?! And this isn’t all. Hogwarts repeatedly proves itself to be an excessively dangerous place, with Dumbledore doing absolutely nothing to protect the students. At one point, there are Dementors around it. Yes, he’s furious, but he doesn’t seem to have argued against it particularly hard… And all of this combined makes it seem like Dumbledore doesn’t really care too much for the welfare of his students.

He Employed Snape And Refused To Hear Anything Bad About Him

Okay, okay, okay. I know. Snape turned out to be a ‘good’ guy in the end. He actually killed Dumbledore on Dumbledore’s orders, and he was in love with Harry’s mother Lily the whole time. I know.

But he was still a terrible, abusive teacher. He crushed Neville’s confidence repeatedly. He made fun of Hermione for being smart. He unfairly picked on Harry for reasons we didn’t find out until book seven. And yet, he was fine to his own students in Slytherin, even favoring them often. You can argue that Snape was a good guy, even a hero (bleh), but you can’t argue that he was a good teacher. He was absolutely terrible, and to let him teach in Hogwarts for all those years knowing just how spiteful he could be was nothing short of unforgivable.

Kids Figure Out Stuff Before He Does

For someone so clever, why does he seem to be so ignorant to things?

It goes back to Dumbledore seeming to be more curious about how things will play out than actually willing to protect his students. People figure out things before him all the time – most notably and embarrassingly, when Harry, Ron, and Hermione discovered the Sorcerer’s Stone was in danger before he did. They were wrong about who it was in danger from, but they still knew something was up and got to it moments before Dumbledore himself did.

Ron and Hermione were 12 at this point and Harry was 11. Two of them had been part of the magical world for less than a year. And yet, they were all more tuned into things in Hogwarts than its headmaster? Seems suspicious…

He Kept The Sorcerer’s Stone In A SCHOOL

Speaking of which, why did he decide to keep the stone in the school in the first place? This just seems like a bad place for it. Hogwarts may be the safest place in the Wizarding World, but it’s also one where the entirety of Britain’s magical youth resides for most of the year.

At no point did Dumbledore stop and think, “Hey, maybe I’m endangering them by keeping the thing Voldemort wants most below the lake”?

At this point, it really is as if he wants to see how things will unfold if he mixes them up a bit and throws in some drama — which is a dangerous attitude to have for anyone, let alone someone with so much power. What was he thinking half the time?

He Didn’t Recognize That Alastor Moody Wasn’t Alastor Moody

We’re told Alastor “Mad-Eye” Moody and Dumbledore were old friends. Mad-Eye Moody was a well-respected Auror (dark wizard catcher) before he retired, and Dumbledore was also a champion against dark wizards – snort. For the later part of his life, anyway. So it did make sense that he’d hire him to teach Defense Against The Dark Arts at his school.

But how did he not realize that he wasn’t actually Moody?

Barty Crouch Jr. couldn't have been that good of an actor. He seemed insane, so to fool one of Moody’s old friends–let alone the most clever wizard in the world, supposedly–seemed downright unbelievable. And yet, he managed. He even managed to get Harry away from him when it became apparent someone in the school was working for Voldemort.

Really, Dumbledore? You need to pay more attention. WTF are you even doing?

He Kept The Elder Wand

When Harry gets the Elder Wand, he does the right thing. To prevent more bloodshed and more people who are desperate to get their hands on it, he snaps it. Good on you, Harry! Someone had to do it.

But why didn’t Dumbledore?

Because of Dumbledore, Voldemort ended up with his hands on it. It all worked out in the end, but Dumbledore couldn’t have known it would come to that for all the decades that he held onto that wand. He would have done so many people a favor in the past if he’d had the guts to snap it; but he didn’t because on some level, he wanted the power.

This goes back to him once having the ideology that magic trumps all else. You were shady, Dumbledore. You were shady at best.

I've taken the reasons from this link. And I think the same too.

Sorry to any Dumbledore fans, I'm sorry if I've hurt your feelings.

Mills Reading List

In Oz they write differently and the closest thing Zelena can find in this realm is manga. She stumbles upon it by accident because she thought it was a comic book and she bought it for Henry. The layout makes sense to her and is easier to read. Henry snubs his nose at it and declares American comics are better. Regina just smiles and makes Zelena an authorized user on her Visa so she can buy more. Regina knows a lot about comics thanks to Henry. She doesn't read for plot, exactly, but she does like to follow characters. She likes Mystique, Emma Frost, Black Widow, Huntress, and Scandal Savage. Deep gray charecters who are both good and evil, who are independent and break the rules. When she has a spare moment to herself, she likes to read mysteries and crime thrillers. Maleficent doesn't like comic books. She prefers novels. Artists cannot produce what she sees in her. She has made her way through most of the clasdics and has delved into modern novels. She likes most genres of both fiction and non. Except she loathes the Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones books. She set them on fire. No one owns a dragon. No one can control a dragon. Also the King in the book reminds her of Leopold. Whether she destroyed the novel for that reason or dragons, she won't say. Henry is done with fairy tales. Really and totally done with magic, adventure and knights in shining armor. He found a bunch of old Star Wars novels in the back of the library and has started reading about a galaxy far away. When he found out Disney eliminated the extended universe, he asked his mom to curse them. She did not. Lilly, on the other hand, can not get enough magic. She has plowed through every book she can find. She's even convinced Belle to teach her Elvish so she can read more. Everytime she learns something new, she either compares it to Harry Potter or a Disney movie. It amuses Belle. Robyn can not read. She does like being read to, though. Henry reads A Series of Unfortunate Events and does silly voices. Her favorite is Sunny. Lily reads her books about American Girls. Her favorite is Felicity because she has red hair like Mummy. Auntie Regina reads Madeline to her and does it in a silly French accent. She's the funniest. Mummy does not read to her from a book, she tells stories about Oz. Someday Robyn wants to go see Oz.
