    I think this topic deserves it's own discussion, Nuit and Exiled Rain get the credit for this, I just couldn't move the posts out of the thread due to replies without taking alot, lol. I think this idea has serious credibility, but knowing JKR it'll just be some utter bullshit


    EDIT_ this has been mentioned several times in the past day or so, so I'm stickying it for further discussion in this thread. It's a damned good explanation for what happened, and I praise the 2 posters for bringing it forward.

    Indeed...from that we could fork many neat story ideas, especially Ginny using love potion on Harry. Then he could fall to the dark side. :twisted: :twisted:

    He is so over come with rage because she was playing playing with his emotions that he snaps! Maybe Hermione and Ron helped her with it so it really ticks him off. Dark!Harry goodness!

    It would make sense. Harry in Gryffindor, friends with Light family and muggleborn and in the end Harry+Ginny= Completly Lightsided Gryffindor Harry. Another pawn for Dumbledore.

    Dumbledore:"Harry say NO to your inner Slytherin and Dark Side"
    Harry:"What! I am Gryffindor and Lightsided ONLY!!!"

    it gives dark harry writers everywhere a good way to make a decent post-HBP story.

    but knowing JKR she will probably pull some bullshit to where ginny tells harry it was a love potion and harry being so nice will decide to stay with her. The reason JKR will do this to parralel voldemorts mom and dad thing where she used a love potion and then stopped and told tom about it and he got mad. Only with the whole ginny harry wont.

    but if JKR does make him get mad at ginny thats the only way she can redeem herself.

    You notice at the end of the book when he broke up with Ginny, she was really surprised?

    The irony of a Dumbledore's pawn Harry is that according to the existentialist philosophy espoused by JKR in the form of Albus Dumbledores statement on choice in the first book, is that by not allowing Harry to make a choice, but rather be guided 100% by the choices made for him she is countering her own philosophical argument that it is our choices that shape us, by having her main character shaped not by his own choices, but by Dumbledores.

    And damn that was a long sentence.

    Harry will never go dark. Ginny would never do anything so underhanded. That's the way JKR is going to go with this.


    But if I were writing a book 7, I would totally play this up.

    You could even say that maybe Ron and Ginny were slipping both Harry and Hermione love potion. Thats why she turned into a girly-girl chit in the sixth book. See her jealous rages? It was kinda like what Harry was keeping inside.

    ITS POISON!!!

    I sometimes wonder what JK is thinking. How could Harry be a virgin at this point? WHy isn't he more angry or independent? JK blows off all these questions with "because he loves" I HATE this response. Its like saying "It just is."


    FUCK YOU JK!!!! ARGHGHGH The first four books were good but non she can't write for SHIT!!! (just realized that the first 4 books were good WITH the exception of Secrets)

    I think I can handle CoS alot better then S's Stone. Trials a 11 year old with no prior magical experiance can get through and it's supposed to stop the baddest sum bitch ever in recent history?!?!?!?!?!?

    that's true. I feel like SOrcer's Stone only sucks if you think the end was REALLY meant to keep Voldemort out (it wasn't) it was meant to give Harry and company a chance to succeed. OTherwise, why not just have a password protected thing like THE HEADMASTER'S FUCKING OFFICE!!!


    Make it some random word. Harry couldn't break through that shit in his 4th year (remember him Randomly guessing as Barty Crouch Sr. went ape shit with Krum Cake?)


    The Sorcer's Stone tasks were designed FOR Harry. (its the ONLY logical conclusion when you think about it.)

    Yep, thats the reasoning I'm using, that Dumbles was there the whole time, and forcing Harry to face Voldemort, trying to have Harry kill him while Voldie was weak.

    Otherwise.. "You think I'm a bit touched do you? You could of easily Fidelius'ed the damned hiding location and stuck it in the middle of the Great hall and it'd never of been found. You fooled only the foolish Dumbledore, and I stopped being one of those some time back."

    Aye
    -> they learned how to harm the plant in herbology
    -> flying is the only thing Harry cares about
    -> chess is the only skill Ron has
    -> the troll was defeated by Quirrell
    -> the riddle just screamed Herman
    -> and Dumbledore introduced the mirror to Harry

    aye it was so horribly transparent by the time I got to it I didn't need to read the book to figure out what happened. It wasn't until the first movie came out years later that I bothered finishing book 1, just to see how different it was from the movie.

    Back on topic! How could ANYONE fall in love with a girl who literally couldn't be around you without making a fool of herself (remember the butterdish, the countless times she squeaked and ran away?) I would say that this girl is a bigger pussy than her ACTUAL pussy, but I know that's not possible as she's fucked every hogwarts guy at LEAST 3 times.
