    It sad really. Author could at least little explanation, well like this : "Gods/Spirits of Ancient wizards/Powers That Is, etc. gives Harry SUPERpowers and mission to kill Voldemort. After that powers WILL be taken away."
    Not like "OMG! :shock: :shock: :shock: I became a GOD!!! I can finally seduce Ginny/Hermione and play pranks and other stupid things!"

    Its annoying, boring, disgusting. :puke:

    Because Merlin is some kind of God to the wizards and therefore God!Harry is the heir of Merlin.

    About cliches: these endless fics where Harry is "Heir of Gryffindor". :cry:
    Harry is Heir of Gryffindor, gettin trained by Order, falls in love with Ginny/Hermione because they are "gorgeus, amazing,etc." and finally defeats Voldemort on some strange way. :puke:

    Another cliche: Auror! Harry. He and Ministry dont like each other, so WHY Harry will work for them?:!: :shock: :!:

    I can see Harry as an Unspeakably because they dont answer to the rest of the ministry. Other than that, he would not have any other job there. He would be a bounty hunter or something.

    I don't see why Harry would work an actual job at all. He's a celebrity and assumedly rather rich, especially after inheriting Sirius's gold. Even if not, he could just make appearances and endorse stuff to make piles of gold.

    Thats what i've been saying all along, but for some reason ppl don't agree *evilglare* lol. Him working for the Ministry makes no damned sense, I'd believe Quidditch star more then anything.

    Let the boy take his cash and relax with freaky chicks on the Riviera!

    In canon Harry wants to be "normal". Its the reason for his desire to be an Auror,
    to have a job like everybody, not to be rich, lazy bastard like Malfoy.
    His desire to create an illusion of normalicy, to fool himself in thinking that there is no difference between him and others.

    Not really, he has no desire to be an Auror, it's just something he pulled out of his ass for the Umbridge/McGonnagal interview.

    If I was him i'd still work anyway. You'd get bored after awhile just sitting there and throwing money at everything. Need some action.
