I did not miss shippy drama

Dear JK Rowling.

What's that you said about poking a sleeping dragon in the eye?

Oh yeah.

I still love you, though. And Ron/Hermione. I'm not even convinced this isn't being taken out of context.

Love,

Me

No matter what Rowling says, I'll still ship Ron/Hermione. I'm just hoping this doesn't start another shipping war in the HP fandom.

I really hope this leads to fic. The underdog ship and canon? Bring on the fic, fandom!

I admit, even though I was losing my mind (still am), I still think there's a very good chance it's taken out of context, misrepresented, or just plain made up. This may be delusion.

If shipping R/Hr is wrong ...

I'll chose to think it's out of context until I know otherwise.

It's really pissing me off, esp when its creating a lot of unneeded drama, and bringing out a really ugly side to people I previously respected (in terms of giving them license to bash Ron).

IT HURTS IT HURTS

RON IS THE BEST AND THIS SUCKS.

Well, the thing is... that it is what it is. She can't take it back, no matter what she says now! It's written in the books. The book series is done. I've always shipped Ron/Hermione.

Tbh I just kind of found this all amusing, haha. It doesn't change the books or what I came away from canon with, though it does make me a bit puzzled as to why she thinks H/Hr would have been more logical... We'll see what the actual article says when it comes out.

I still ship Ron/Hermione :)
