You know what I've noticed?

Tonks and Luna are the new Ron's and Sirius's. As in, authors like to make them complete idiots.

Granted, Ron still gets the brunt of it, but Sirius seems to have escaped that fandom fate (for the most part). Remus, however... he's treated badly as well. And both Tonks and Remus suffer in many R/T fics - Tonks as the ditzy girl who doesn't even know Sirius's name, but still magically gets rid of Remus's tears, Remus as the angsty chain smoker who is on the verge of suicide.

Maybe I should start SPORT: Society for the Protection of Our Remus and Tonks.

Yikes.

What gets me is the part about one of the kids randomly throwing coke at  the NO ones.

What is it with some people? It's like the stories you hear about kids dying of leukemia or AIDS being teased. Is disaster funny? And how do these kids live with themselves later in life?

It just bugs me.  (Granted, this was also the topic that inspired a fic I wrote months ago).
