06. Your favorite character(s):
Luna. Freakin'. Lovegood. I think you knew that. I've loved Luna since she first appeared and she was pretty much the only damn thing that kept me reading through book 5. My mind would start to break and then Luna would appear, so blissfully unaware (or maybe she just didn't care) of how the rest of the school seemed to think of her. If she wanted to do something, she did it. She believed in things no one else did and she was right far more often than most would have ever imagined at the beginning. And yes, she has tragedy in her past and all that. Luna and her funky hair and eyes. ♥
I love Neville as well. He's just adorkable. He's sort of the flipside to Luna. Oh, Nevile knows how everyone else looks at him, and he still tries so damn hard. It would be so easy to just... not try and that's just not an option for him. One of the most awesome bits of the final book was the glimpse at how he'd grown up and taken charge. Dude. I could have accepted Harry dying but not Neville. Yes. My priorities might seem a little skewed.
I love the twins and lalalala-Ican'thereyouwhenyousaythatoneisnomore-lalalalalala! I believe that you don't mess with Mama Molly Weasley, and that Ginny is pretty bad ass at times. I think McGonnagall is sorely underrated and underused. Hagrid may drive me bonkers at times because he has moments where you have to ask yourself, Really?! but he's Hagrid.
And if you insist upon making me pick one of the trio, I love Ron. I get that I should probably pick Hermione but I can't. I like Ron because he gets jealous of Harry's fame and the perks that come along with it. He's a jerk at times, but in the end, he's got your back, even if he's pretty sure you've finally lost your damn mind. I like that he's not perfect, or perfectly accepting of everything. It makes things more realistic.
And a special mention for Oliver Wood. Love.
