So in the Changeling you describe how Ginny keeps the DA safe in her sixth year as part of her role as the Slytherin leader. In canon, however, Ginny is a Gryffindor like Neville and there are in fact no Slytherin leaders to advise caution. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on how that changed the situation.
I don’t really, honestly. I made a decision with the Changeling to keep everything basically the same in terms of general events and deaths and outcomes. I wanted to show that it actually makes sense that Slytherin must have been part of the DA, that they would have been vital. And to show that canon wouldn’t have to fundamentally change to encorporate school unity. I wanted to give alternate explanations for how things could have ended up that way. Like the fact that it’s Ginny’s legiliemncy that keeps Neville from being killed. That it’s Hannah’s loyalty that keeps the room of requirement safe. That it’s Luna and Terry’s creativity that drives the DA’s successful rebellion. We knew the role Gryffindor leadership and drive and bravery of would play from the text. But the others are missing. I suppose I’m questioning the viability of the outcomes with a DA that wasn’t unified when it comes down to it.
Pip Pip! Flibbertigibbet! Boop! Kawaii!
After the sorting is finished during Harry's first evening at Hogwarts, Professor Dumbledore delivers a four word speech, "Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!" Silly as they undoubtedly are, these words cast a spell of fun.
Much later in the series he says about the magic of words, "Words are, in my not so humble opinion, our most inexhaustible source of magic, capable of both inflicting injury and remedying it."
Learning from the very best, I'm trying to conjure up a home for myself, here. A home made of words. And so, fittingly, the welcome mat to this home is my assortment of silly words. Here's hoping it works the same magic!
it never sat right with me that sirius was all for harry signing up to be a child soldier just like he and his friends did which ultimately got most of them killed and himself imprisoned like??? “here is a picture of the original people who fought for dumbledore, yes these are my friends who are now either dead or insane. aaa good times now go follow in my footsteps and lose all the people you loved!” in what fucking world does that make sense. fuck cannon sirius. WHY WOULD HE WANT TO LOSE THE ONLY REMAINING THING OF JAMES AND LILY??? WHY WOULD HE WANT HIS GODSON TO GO THROUGH THE SAME TRAUMA HE AND HIS FRIENDS DID??? anyways stan molly “he’s just a boy” weasley xx
