I think a better question to. Ask is if there are leather bound hardcovers. Are there?

You're delving into one of the biggest issues of the information age. The fact that with expanding population and connectivity that there is more content then any one person can ever read. More good books then any individual can follow. For every good book you read there are three more that you would have liked that you will never even hear of. Thats why fanfiction is so popular. It boosts your chances by being associated with a known successful series. MoR is pretty idological. But its still an author doing a marginal job of expressing his view. Which in my opinion is better then ten good writers writing for the current NYT best seller roulette.

Or maybe it was just that there was enough of Voldemorts signature on harry for it to "pass" him and identify Dumbledore as an allowed companion.

Paragon8 posted:The whole World Cup segment I find extremely problematic. Mainly due to the attendance numbers. 100k wizards throws so many other calculations off. With regard to logistics it seems very strange that with port keys, apparition and floo powder you'd need people to camp out for weeks prior to the match. Muggle sporting events easily deal with those crowds in a day. Ever been tailgating? Wizard tailgating. Plus its this big international wizard party. They have tent houses. Why not camp out for weeks?

I have to assume it falls under some pretty strict legislature the world around. Same way building youre own guns is regulated. I just assume that most of the Auroras out there are more like ATF then direct combat with evil wizard types. No you can't build enchanted weaponry at home. No you can't have a chest of holding filled with automatic rocket launchers. No you can't redirect meteors in orbit.

GodFish posted:He didn't even love Lily, he loved the ideal of her he put on a pedestal, but the fact that he was fine with her being heartbroken by the death of her husband and son as long as he could swoop in afterwards to comfort her shows he didn't care or understand about who she really was. Snape grew up a friend of Lily's. Sure he eventually grew into a huge Jerk over his years at Hogwarts and subsequent years as a deatheater, but he still had his love of Lily that had grown for years. The moment Lily is threatened Snape throws away all of his friends, power, etc to run to Dumbledore, prostrate himself at his feet, and beg to save her. Not to mention that Snape's love of Lily is why he begged Voldemort to spare her before running to Dumbledore, and that request is what caused Voldemort to pause long enough for Lily to choose to die for her son. Personally I think Snape's love for Lily was also part of the love protecting Harry throughout the series. Sure he may have idealized her in the years after her death. He risked everything for that memory though, says alot about the guy. Still a selfish Jerk.

Piell posted:Snape is the worst. You can't one line of the most important moments of his character. He went to Dumbledore before Lily was killed. He didn't tell his boss not to kill her and then flip sides once she was dead. The death eaters were the closest thing Severus had for friends and he betrayed them all as soon as Lily was in danger. Snape still had a heart. This doesn't absolve him of his other horrible qualities but its a definitive example of how objectively bad people can still have good in them (Eg Vader) and can still find hope.

TheModernAmerican posted:Of course he loves Lily, that's pretty hammered in through the course of the last few books. His patronus changed for her, the vanguard of his soul changed formed because he had that much love for one person. He's still a terrible person that no one should idolize. Also he was only able to cast the Patronus because of that. It relies on happy memories and every one of his happy memories was with Lily.
