Harry Potter & the Hair-Brained Plot p. 1 (no, really, David Yates is awesome ILU DAVID YATES)

a very spastic list of things I love about Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, the movie. I was going to insert ~smart commentary~ but it’s basically a free day here at work, i have back eps of Leverage to watch (Leverage! :D ) and i’m feeling lazy, lazy like the writing staff of True Blood, and so incoherent list format it is! :D

Harry Potter & the Hot-Blooded Prince of Slytherin ™

Have seen Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince 3 and 3/4 times now, in theatres. Not counting the skim-throughs of the avi while I screencap moments where Harry and Draco GLARE! At! Each! Other! to show sjkf;asd;j in order to convince her that
a) yes, Harry and Draco are still snarling and angry and obsessed
b) yes, Harry and Draco are still in love
c) yes, Harry Potter and HP fandom and HP canon is still is KIND OF AMAZING AND IT’S OKAY TO LOVE IT

(look, i am telling you, those are some powerful screencaps.)

Dear friends list,

R

Ahhhh, I can’t even breathe right now. I can’t remember the last time I read any fic in any fandom this intensely layered and nuanced.

the game of kings by mercurial_wit

Patterned after the film of Half-Blood Prince, but the emotional impact and elegance of this incredibly intelligent fic won’t be any less taut or heartjerkingly raw if you haven’t seen it. And anyway, if you haven’t seen HBP yet, oh my god Harry Potter fans, you’re missing out on such a beautiful, beautiful commentary on canon. Just. ahhh, this fic is such an amazing exploration of the film and the themes of all seven books and i’m so so so so happy that it exists. And happy that all the fics we’ve been talking about for the last week exist. i love you, h/d. :( ((

SO TO RECAP, THESE ARE OUR POST-HALF-BLOOD PRINCE RECS FOR THE WEEK:

1. if wishes were fishes by . post-HBP, post-film.
2. Reparo, by amalin. Post-Deathly Hallows.
3. Inexpert and Unexpected Things (hug!fic!), by amalin. Post-HBP.
4. the game of kings by mercurial_wit. post-HBP, post-film.
5. a whole cauldron full of classics from around the fandom, courtesy of hd_nostalgia, amalin, and a whole flock of participants on the H/D party post, now with 900+ comments of joy.

oh my god i have missed this fandom so much.

HALF-BLOOD PRINCE (HEY LOOK A FANDOM I ACTUALLY HAVE A TAG FOR

I just actually want to say how FUCKING EXCITED I AM ABOUT HARRY POTTER SIX.

HARRY. DRACO. HARRY/DRACO. TOM FELTON AND DANIEL RADCLIFFE CIRCLING EACH OTHER AND ACTING BADLY AND DELIVERING HILARIOUSLY OVER-THE-TOP MOMENTS OF SUBTEXT THAT PROBABLY SHOULD NOT BE CONFUSED WITH THE ACTUAL HOMOEROTISM IN THE BOOK BY THE SAME NAME. DUMBLEDORE. SNAPE. SDJFKLDJSDJD;KL

I NEED TO KNOW WHAT MALFOY IS DOING INSIDE YOU.

SKJFJD;DKL

YOU GUYS I SERIOUSLY CAN’T FUCKING WAIT, I LOVE YOU HARRY POTTER, I LOVE YOU H/D <33333333333333333
