Oh wow, that’s a lot. Thanks for caring! 😉
1. Which Hogwarts house are you?
Ravenclaw or Slytherin. Slytherclaw?
4. Favourite character and why?
I think Hermione used to be my favorite character because she was me, and now McGonagall is my favorite character because she is me. Plus
ça change…
7. Favourite book and why?
Prisoner of Azkaban, for a variety of reasons. It’s a good length; it provides a genuine connection with an older generation and starts showing adults who are neither evil nor saintly, but flawed and human; it involves a time travel story that doesn’t make any of the more obvious mistakes (though don’t think about it *too* hard); its ending involves a partial, inconclusive victory over a messier assortment of villains. My next favorite is Half-Blood Prince, for similar reasons.
12. Thoughts on Severus Snape?
He’s complicated and I feel bad for him. I don’t like the way that “friendzone” discourse has made the ranks of The Woke reluctant to sympathize with characters who have a bad case of unrequited love and don’t handle it very well.
24. How do you feel about Cursed Child?
Uh… I read it once and I don’t remember much about it. I think it was kind of interesting but also kind of far-fetched?
