30 Days of Harry Potter: Day Four

[rogueslayer452]

Day 4 - Least fave female character and why.

Ginny Weasley.

She's just so...uninteresting, and bland (became even blander in the movies, but that's another issue altogether.) I just never understand the hype surrounding her character at all, or why I should even care about her in the first place. Also, for a character that I vehemently hated that would go to Umbridge. I absolutely loathed her with every fiber of my being. *shudders*


Rest of the 30 Days of Harry Potter Challenge.

Other things: LJ, why are you being so difficult today? You make it hard for me to check the porns see updated things, also some of my user-icons aren't showing up. This displeases me. :(

JKR did a great job at making us despise and loathe Umbridge, totally and completely.

With Ginny, idk what she was going for. She was mainly a "just there" character until she randomly decided to say that she and Harry ~belonged together, which I still think is randomly contrived and kind of a bullshit excuse just to have that perfect ending for the characters. I just don't understand the importance of Ginny's character in the overall sense. I really don't think she amounted to anything, aside from being involved with the diary in Chamber of Secrets. But that's just about it.

And what is the deal with Ginny/Draco? I know the HP fandom has many obscure pairings but, that? I just, whatttt? *shudders*

Okay HPB drove me NUTS with the way she threw that relationship together. I had huge problems with it and it's one of the reasons that it's my least favorite book.

I'm not even someone who hates the pairing or was all Harry and Hermione need to end up together because it was kind of obvious after GoF that Hermione and Ron were going to be together. It's just... she developed it so WEIRDLY, IDEK. I genuinely did NOT care about her or anything and the way it came about irritated the hell of me. "The beast in his chest" WHAT THE FUCK?


I'm a Slytherin and I have a weakness for Draco (fanon Draco) but yes, it's a serious WTF pairing and then RP TRAUMA makes me shudder at it now.

I know what you mean. I wouldn't have minded it if there was something prior to that, but it was just so....left field and it made absolutely no since. It really was developed weirdly and I still don't understand how it works.

I love JKR and all but, she writes shitty romance. :/ It's a good thing that romance was pretty much background noise in the Harry Potter books otherwise I would have ended up bashing my head against the wall with all the ridiculousness that occurred.

Awww, Draco. Yeah, I find it hard to even fathom how that would even work, it just skeeves me out.
