Draco having an extensive amout of knowledge about Harry is my fave thing, like some Slytherins will go "Potter looks too cheerful today" "well, maybe it's his birthday", and Draco is casually like "nah, his birthday is July 31st", and everyone is like "what" and Draco is like "what?". Gryffindors passing him in the courtyard, Neville be like "Harry, wanna some strawberry gum?" and Draco mutters to himself "he's allergic to strawberry, Longbottom, Merlin..", and the Slytherins like "not AGAIN"
Oh my god this is so real and powerful and canon
I love this
I feel like the problem ppl have when constructing redemption arcs is people make 'the character realizes what they've done is wrong' the end step instead of like...one of the earliest ones. a satisfying redemption arc doesn't resolve when the character first feels sorry, it resolves when a character has really journeyed towards atonement and made enough change in themselves to achieve some kind of symbolic victory over who they used to be

Please ask before using.
What if instead of gilly weed Harry had showed up to the black lake challenge in muggle scuba gear like “like where’s your advanced magic now bitches? Got me a free fishing knife with this thing”
the older i get the more i realize what it meant for lily and james potter to die at 21. when you’re 11 and you’re reading the books, watching the films, 21 feels ancient. it did to me. even the actors they picked looked like they were in their thirties, because actual 21 year olds standing next to harry in the mirror would have been an excruciating sight i think. actual 21 year olds lined up in the photo sirius shows harry would have been horrible to see. they weren’t adults. i look at 21 year olds now and most of them are still teenagers. and i’m so sad because you know harry turns 21 and then 22 and then 28 and 29 and realizes how terribly young his parents were, how brave they were, how exceptional they were, GOD I’M SAD IM GETTING A BEER
