Gee, I wonder, who could we possibly have been talking about for the last page?

 

I sincerely believe you are not a high school student, an actual high student at their laziest would have settled for using a random racial slur before throwing out something as painfully cringe worthy as Dumb-old-dork.

 

Moving on from the "Dumbledork" debate...

Dark But Not Evil Harry. With the strict exception of the Denarian Renegade series, every single Fic that ever attempted such a thing either:

1. Make Harry not especially Dark.
2. Make Harry more than a little Evil.
3. Make Harry an Asshole.

 

To be fair Harry is a pretty big asshole in the Denarian series, he's just an enjoyable asshole.

 

True. I'll take that back: all Fics without exception do at least one of those three things.

 

Out of the Night by Raining Ink seems to be an exception.

 

Wait a minute; are we talking about Harry Potter, or Harry Dresden...?

@Krogan: No bother. T.B.H, I wonder, if it all came out, assuming Harry ever revealed what happened, would Dumbledore's reputation go straight down the toilet, or would there be Dumbledore apologists galore, like the rash of Nazi apologists in modern society...?

 

Hang on. Did you just compare defending Dumbledore to Nazi apologists? Because as a Jew who lost some relatives to the Holocaust, I found that a rather, interesting, comparison to make.

 

1) I echo @Rhaegar I words
2) If you wish to explore Dumbledore actions and motives in canon, make a thread in fanfic discussion and put your claims there.
Don't just put them, also explain and justify your claims.
While taking into account the difference between various books.
I recommend you to go through the Book club sub forum were we did a re-read of the books.
Much of fanon portrait of Dumbledore is mostly shit. (most characters as well).
If you won't put the effort, at some point you will draw the gaze of the site moderators.

 

O.K, I'm assuming that not a restricted-access sub-forum? If yes, I'll check it out later, although I may wait 'til we can tidy things up here, and I'm able to pull out my copies of the novels again...

 

Why would I need to "chill"? That wasn't written in anger; my stuff really is up in a heap, plus, when I wrote that post, I was playing an MMO at the same time, hence my - minor - relcutance to read it immediately...

 

... that's the name of the sub, dude.

 

Thanks, but now I feel like a real idiot... *facepalm*

 

Only just now?

 

LMAO. I seem to remember someone saying this was a kinder, gentler DLP.

 

Umm, Harmony or as they know it, HP/HG pairing.

 

Very well, I don't like portmanteaus or exclamation points in the description.

 

Do you mean descriptions of fanfictions, AKA summaries? You do realise most sites are stingy as hell in terms of the character limits for those kinds of things, hence the arguable need for portmaneaus...?
Mind you, that said, I do take your point about exclamation marks...
