Well JK also created Dumbledore and people think he's the greatest. Lol Now that I'm older, i see the shades of grey in some characters. Yep yep. Like when I realized Molly Weasley was also very flawed. That's what I've come to really appreciate about stories the more I read them. Things aren't so clear anymore. She treated Hermione abominably.

I love watching Tom Felton's live videos on Instagram. He's always so beachy and singing with his guitar. Always smiling and charismatic. Opposite of what I imagine Draco to be. Lol I love how when he took the sorting quiz he got Gryffindor I'm literally laughing. I always imagined him as a hufflepuff because of how I see him in his videos. Sometimes I go on YouTube tom Felton holes and he cracks me up with his commentary of fanfics. He loves it.

She treated Hermione abominably. And fleur after bill was attacked, and her poor squib accountant cousin ("but we don't talk about him")

She treated Fleur terribly up until the wedding pretty much. There's a fic that I love. It's Scorpius/Rose, but it plays into that really well. It's a one shot for a larger series. archiveofourown.org/works/6522373

I liked her in Broken. Someone here recommended it. I forget who. I liked how loyal she was there to Hermione. One thing I like about the Slytherins in the books and the fics is that they really are loyal to one another. I felt like both harry and Ron deserted Hermione at different times for very stupid reasons. She was a bit too mothering with both of them too. But still.

Yeah, I got tired of the CW DC shows, but I almost kept watching that just for him. I couldn't finish this last season of the flash. It was just so bad and I stopped caring ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Im so far behind on DC shows but Im so meh on them anyways. LOT was doing so good but then killed off you know who and I was like NOPE!

Ive also come to love Theo Nott so much, I really enjoy how across most stories his personality is very similar no matter the author. Secrets doesnt have him in it except for like two mentions and I miss him terribly. I have 15 chapters left to go but Im struggling to finish. But I love the Snape redemption arc in it.

It's my favorite Dramione fic. I reread it often. And yeah, she's awesome there.

His snark and sass was amazing even st his deathbed. I loved how much his sazzes Snape in Marked.

To go back to Molly and the other Weasley's for a minute. They are just as racist as the Slytherin's, but because they are on the "light" side, it's never addressed. They see the Muggles as less than too, but more as children that need to be protected. That has bugged me for years.
