Remember when I used to write filks based on Harry Potter/fandom stuff?

[author_by_night]

Yeah, so, I did that again. "Let it Go - Harry Potter Fandom Style."

(Note: One True Way = Remus/Sirius.)



My twitter is on fire tonight
So many trolls to be seen
JK Rowling is tweeting
This just cannot be unseen
My flist is lukewarm but no, they are not surprised
We've seen it all before, for us it's gone on a long time

Why can't she get, why can't she see
What she did to my OTP
The books have been sealed, no more to know
But more we'll know

Let it go
Let it go
Can't take the wank anymore
Let it go
Let it go
I've had enough of Pottermore

I don't care
That Dumbledore's gay
Let the wank rage on
I always did prefer The One True Way

It's funny how nostalgia
Makes everything seem fun
But the rules that once controlled me
Are rules from which I have run
It's time to see what I can do
No more fear of silly Mary Sue
No stupid litmus tests for me
I'm free

Let it go
Let it go
'Cause it has eight whole years
Let it go
Let it go
Say goodbye to obsessive tears
Yet here Jo stands
Yet here I stay
Let the wank rage on


Jo's writing flurries through what we once called the web
Back in old times when Hogwarts was in my head
But one thought keeps me going like a Death Eater in a duel
I left, must not look back
This wank must be my fuel

Let it go
Let it go
The series has past its dawn
Let it go
Let it go
It's time to just move on
But here we stand
Maybe part of us stayed
Let the wank rage on
It makes for some good lulz anyway

Nice!!!

while there's some things I'm not happy about (ex. Will probably always remain bitter about her throwing the good ship under the bus/specially poor ron)

is there's really the fact we're still getting stuff really that bad?

like save one or two turns of phrase in pottermore- i like the stuff she put there (ex. loved McG's bio & Lupin's bio!)

plus the Fantastic beasts and where to find them look fun! and we get brand new stuff!

that's good right?

(her twitter is getting super annoying though- she keeps indulging the trolls NS It's getting pretty toxic- like I get it, a lot of SNP people are obnoxious but why can JKR pay attention to the Fans and ignore the trolls?!)

I actually like a lot of the backstory myself! Should've put a disclaimer that not all of these opinions are mine. ;) It's more based on the general reactions I've seen, and a lot of people do wish she'd write less backstory. (I have mixed feelings. Some of it's seemed very half-hearted. But McG's was amazing.) Also, I didn't really ship R/S, I just threw that in there. So there you go. (I did, however, write OCs but very careful, and when I went into original writing it took a while for me not to be afraid of Mary Sues.)

And yeah, I had to unfollow JKR on twitter - I love following her normally, but it is getting excessive.

which ones seem half-hearted? i'm curious

(personally I didn't liked the QWC much- except for the teddy/victoire confirmation--- like it was very badly researched in terms of patagonia people/culture and as someone who has dear friends there- it made me mad)
