so i just started reading the silmarillion and let me tell you, i was not expecting this much drama. the very first chapter is about ilúvatar and the creation of arda and it honestly just reads like a bunch of students arguing over who gets credit for the group project
“fuck off melkor you didn’t even help with the powerpoint”
a concept: Harry Potter with his mother’s hair and father’s eyes instead of vice versa.
Harry with fiery dark red hair and soft hazel eyes please and thank you
i imagine this is how harry and draco’s first meeting would have gone then haha
can you imagine how much more confused arthur would have been in that scene where he first meets harry 😂
his eyes would probably sweep right over harry at the breakfast table, and then he would freeze and have to do a mental tally of his children
I can see Fred and George really going with it too…
“Come on Dad, don’t you remember Harry?” “Next you’ll tell us you don’t remember Craig” “Or Ethel” “Or Annie“ “Or Ryan”
there are so many important elements to this. the slow-mo. the sliding on snow in trainers?? the string classical music. the knowing glance towards the camera. the slight raise of the mug in salutation. the book. the red dressing gown. the snowflakes falling past. the hair? the blink as they turn away. who are they
humorous existential despair peaked with matthew gray gubler’s tweet “i’ve got one foot in the darkness and the other one in a hello kitty roller skate” none of y’all will ever be able to top that
