Some people really do get a bee in their bonnets about it, but I feel like- I'm going to see it anyway.
Exactly. I mean, for the most part, it probably works, because a lot of the scenes feel so fresh and edgy. But at the same time, everyone *was* a teenager at some point, and the the emotions the kids go through are universal...IDK,I'm just sad it's not going to end well for Naomi and Ems, sad that Katie and Panda were largely underused, and upset the the finale is going to be worthless in terms of tying up plot points.
Definitely a Harry Potter fan! I need to read you Ginny/Luna, though I'm a diehard Hermione fan. You know, if you squint, your icon looks like Naomi and Emily.
Bee in my bonnet? God, I go absolutely insane if I get spoilered on anything at all, especially the things I love. It's not pretty ;D
Agreed, on everything. Where was Panda this season? She barely had 10 lines in the whole thing. And Katie? Admittedly, her episode was the highpoint of the season, and she looked rather fab randomly dressed as an angel and saving Effy in Freddie's ep, but other than that, just wasted. And that's what makes me so sad: so much wasted potential, all because the writers were just so inept :(
Oh, I adore Hermione; in canon she's my favourite character by far. I started out as a Hermione/Ginny shipper, but I got lured to Ginny/Luna somewhere along the line. Bizarrely, I also ship Hermione/Pansy with a passion. Obviously, canon Pansy is horrible, but there's something about the dynamic between the two that just seems to work for me. Mind you, a lot of people seem to see Hermansy in the light of distinctly dubious consent, which I'm not comfortable with at all. I prefer the whole idea of a mutual attraction that neither wants and both struggle agains, but in the end is just inevitable.
I'd not thought about that, but you're right, there's a definite Naomily look to it. I love that picture. The original's here (http://thilia.livejournal.com/167197.html). It's so pretty.
