IN THE NAME OF SCIENCE

Today (or was it yesterday?) [livejournal.com profile] shiiki made a post that happened to link to this "HP Companion" thing, and I decided to peruse the whole thing. I'm obviously not into Harry Potter like I once was, but the books -- especially Philosopher's Stone -- still give me a kind of warm squishy feeling (otherwise known as "nostalgia" but stfu, I like "warm and squishy") and so the site made me go "awww". Plus I actually read a thing or two I didn't already know, which is really saying something.

If I was more eloquent this might be a post about childhood and/or nostalgia or something, but I am not, so instead I bring you a POLL. For SCIENCE.

Somehow by way of Twilight and Doctor Who I gathered a lot of people on my flist who ship H/Hr. So I bring you questions. For science, and great justice.

[Poll #1352688]

On a totally unrelated note, look a meme:

THINK POSITIVE MEME

I don't usually do these. I guess I was feeling narcisstic. Link me if you've got one!

I dunno, I mean, harry's clearly behind the Fail of his own kids' names, but I do think Hermione would've been like NO WE ARE NOT NAMING THEM AFTER YOUR DEAD PARENTS GOD.

Then again I think she was behind "Rose" and "Hugo" and.... I dunno, those struck me as almost stranger than Albus/Lily/James. Because you kind of expect Harry to be a sentimental fool, but then it's like LOL RANDOM NAMES.

I think the point of Rose and Hugo was LOL MUGGLE NAMES WITH OUR INITIALS SO THEY'RE NOT ENTIRELY OUT OF NOWHERE and... idk I feel like Harry wouldn't have gone for that.

Yeah I didn't notice the initials thing like, ever. Even after people point it out to me I promptly forget. Like just now, reading that, I was like "oh yeah lol R and H i c wut u did".

I dunno, trying to think of what Harry and Hermioen would name their kids confuses my brain. This is partly because I had coming up wiht names for people's kids, though.
