I never read the ending. I just know that once I read Neji died I was like, "so, I'm not reading this anymore... I'm done." Granted I was always a Kakashi girl, but Neji held a special place too. And I agree. Great world builder, terrible writer. I mean, people have told me how stupid it got, and I am just like... wow.
I was never on the official Harry Potter boards. I was told wonderful things about it though, and of course some people were just like, "it's not broad enough." Well fucking obviously you twit, it's for Potterverse!
Anyway... I don't have friends to do that with. I do have a sister that, when I need a distraction from planning my wedding, we totally geek out. Its gloriously awful.
AND FUCK YEAH!! OMG. Its all sweet and innocent and... wow. So just reminded.me of a meme I saw on Facebook that I now find true. Smut is good, but you totally have a fangirl meltdown at the sweet little things, like the first kiss or something.
Slytherdor is the smutty stuff, Slytherpuff is the fangirl meltdown. Ha ha.
Fan fiction helps me when I have really bad writers.block for my Original stuff, jut like rping. The universe is there, it's solid, so just twisting in your own thoughts is therapeutic. I mean Fuck, I have been writing a novel for a year and a half now and just started the fourth chapter. >>
And I know. It was so fucking depressing. I mean, the movies were great, but they left out so much. Peeves being left out still pisses me off. Winky too! And, and, UGH! Okay, book!Ron was way different than movie!Ron in how he acted. So much... but I get that each movie would have been like five hours long, but Fuck, I could deal! There is a pause function when it comes to DVD.
Lee was well casted. Charlie on the other hand. I always imagined him more... chunky and rugged, not.nerdy.
