Harry Potter:To the End

[tsukinofaerii]

Posting from my phone at the theater for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. We caught a double feature, yay us, and my cough has managed to not be too disruptive. But I think I'm going to cry. You just don't get huge Fandom events like this often. I'm going to miss it more than I thought possible. Even if I can find people to go see Cap with me next week, it won't be the same.

I'm holding out hope that we get some decent gay text for Dumbledore and Grindelwald. The movies have made their fortune, maybe the director will make my night. (If we do or don't, regardless, I will post it under a spoilers cut I promise.) It would be nice for the movies to be better than JKR.

I'll pour out a shot for everyone tonight. Here's to the end of an era. To steal a line from the Brits on my circle, cheers!

I went to Wincon when it was Winchestercon, the year it was in LA! I was very tempted this year but a) it clashes with connotations (cheap plug!) and b) I can only afford to go if it's a city I can get cheap flights to. New Orleans is surprisingly costly to get to. Dammit.

But, yes, Connotations has exactly the same thing! It's AWESOME. And not just Dumbledore vs. Gandalf but Dumbledore/Gandalf and who'd top and what they'd do and how staffs and wands would be involved. And which of them would get pregnant and which of them is secretly an elf and how they'd get stranded in a Canadian shack.

Wincon has gotten only better in the years since LA. Perhaps you can make the next one. D: I suspect it's the international aspect? New Orleans has always been relatively cheap to fly in from every time I've needed to. (This year I am driving, FTR.)

YES. I would ship it. Though I ship Grindelwald/Dumbledore more. ¬.¬ Angsty love. All over the place. Wincon is lovely that way too. All comers welcome!
