    Ceebee you forget that after 4th year Victor is gone from Durmstrang and will most likely fade into the role of a minor character. This means one of three things for Kira's character.

    1) Kira also fades away into nonexistence like her boyfriend.

    2) Kira joins the Calypso Harry Superfriends group!! (sniggers)

    3) The thin piece of tissue paper (Viktor) holding back that racist little bitch disappears and Kira's last year in the story becomes a constant fight with her juniors.

    To me 3 is the clear winner on what I want to see happen. So you will have to forgive our "Slavish devotion to canon" just this once.

    Plus Kira getting dumped, without notice, for a muggleborn two years younger than her would just be copious amounts of gasoline added such to a confrontation. Calypso would never let her live it down.

    4. It's an AU story that you're trying to force canon upon for no reason.

    Perhaps I wasn't clear the first time. Here is the reason as stated.

    Clarification: If Kira remains in the story after the fourth year it would be without Krum separating the three who are already at odds with each other. Canon here (Hermione dating Krum) would serve to increase the tension since Kira harbors a dislike for muggleborns and she got dumped for one. Calypso would rub that in her face igniting a whole shit load of confrontation.

    Where do you guys see Kira's character going if she continues to date Krum?

    Obviously all this antagonism between Kira and Harry is a red herring, and once Krum leaves she's going to start banging Harry until his dick has callouses.

    "Eins! Zwei! Drei!" Hermione chanted with each successive thrust.

    I'll be honest; it feels like it's been ten pages since the last update, which is a lot of annoying.

    At least five of which are people bitching about the amount of pages in the thread.

    Yeah, I wonder why the discussion and story haven't been separated into different threads.

    Oh.

    Wait.

    Hear hear!

    ... Hear!

    Btw the Expendables is an awesome film. Totally worth seeing, especially if you can sneak half a litre of vodka in. Drink every time something blows up and someone says something really cheesy. You'll have a lot of fun.

    Completely off topic, but most of the people posting in this thread won't notice so fuck them.

    Have to respond here. Don't bring more vodka than that, or you're perfectly liable to kill yourself.

    And on topic: Whine about update rate, Apply canon unnecessarily, theorize about romance for no fucking reason, completely disregard the fact that everything I just said was said two pages ago. AmIdoingitrite?

    My point was more that it would be nice if people quit beating dead horses and just waited for an update before contributing further to the thread. Like, when there is something new to discuss. I don't mind lots of pages if it's actually contributing to something, which in this case it's not. Pointless conjecture that can wait until the story comes out is silly; better to respond to what's actually written, not what may one day be written (or not written, as the case may be.)

    Dude, Oz is Irish. If he drinks less than that, he's liable to spontaneously drop dead.

    I knew there was a reason why I kept reading this thread between updates. Thank you for the new drinking habits Oz.

    I was going to post a few thoughts about this story, and potential paths it might take - but then I actually read the fucking thread, and, unlike the majority, realized things had already been discussed.

    And the cycle was broken.

    I think part of the reason is that the thread is so long. 74 pages is a lot to go through to catch up. When people see that I think they just blow off reading even the last 5-10 pages, because it just seems like a lost cause.

    And :facepalm:, the thread is now a discussion thread about the discussion thread for the story.
