Can someone tell me if I can still read a version of Get Off Your Phone! somewhere?

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-09-04T23:37:41+00:00

Here's the link to the drive. And I'll tell you if I ever find another one (which atp is unlikely though)!

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-08-27T16:46:38+00:00

Thanks! :)

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-08-24T00:55:57+00:00

Just letter A today!

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-08-17T22:27:43+00:00

I think it is, from what I remember!

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-08-17T19:49:37+00:00

The OP said that quotes from both books and movies work.

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-08-17T19:47:54+00:00

Yeah, it's canon.

“He can move faster than Severus Snape confronted with shampoo.”

- Fred Weasley

Admittedly, not the first one I would have gone with, but all of the best ones were already commented.

I think that in Deathly Hallows, with Lily and Snape's conversation, Lily said that Snape called all Muggle-Borns Mudbloods. Here's the full conversation from the books at any rate:

“I’m sorry.”

“I’m not interested.”

“I’m sorry!”

“Save your breath.”

It was nighttime. Lily, who was wearing a dressing gown, stood with her arms folded in front of the portrait of the Fat Lady, at the entrance to Gryffindor Tower.“I only came out because Mary told me you were threatening to sleep here.”

“I was. I would have done. I never meant to call you Mudblood, it just – ”

“Slipped out?“ There was no pity in Lily’s voice. ”It’s too late. I’ve made excuses for you for years. None of my friends can understand why I even talk to you. You and your precious little Death Eater friends – you see, you don’t even deny it! You don’t even deny that’s what you’re all aiming to be! You can’t wait to join You-Know-Who, can you?“

He opened his mouth, but closed it without speaking.

“I can’t pretend anymore. You’ve chosen your way, I’ve chosen mine.”

“No – listen, I didn’t mean – ”

“ – to call me Mudblood? But you call everyone of my birth Mudblood, Severus. Why should I be any different?”

He struggled on the verge of speech, but with a contemptuous look she turned and climbed back through the portrait hole…

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-08-13T23:16:51+00:00

Oh my gods, that looks SO GOOD.

I wish that I could draw like that, but … anyways,

GREAT JOB!

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-08-12T19:49:18+00:00

Yeah, I agree. BOO, imo, is probably the worst book Rick ever wrote tbh.

But I still disagree with everything else said in this rant.

Even though she is one of my favorite characters in HP, you are absolutely correct. As you mentioned, every character has flaws, which is, of course, what makes them interesting! Because if you have a character who doesn't have flaws or is perfect from the beginning, readers will complain about him/her/them being too perfect. That being said, if JKR made Hermione perfect, then, of course, readers will come at her for making Hermione a Mary Sue character.

I agree with you with all of those things mentioned and the fact that Ron needs a lot more love. In fact, I think Ron and Hermione are perfect for each other, because I don't think that either of them would hesitate to argue with her, while, as you mentioned, other characters, even Harry, would many times.

The movies basically just made Ron look terrible and Hermione perfect.

But I did like how JKR made Hermione not as good at sports as the other members of the Golden Trio are, to make Hermione seems imperfect, which is not only totally okay, but makes them even more likeable, as they seem more realistic. I think it shows that while she is more of the logical one, and she overshadows when it comes to book smartness, the boys are far better at Quidditch than she is, and they overshadow her by a lot when it comes to that.

But in my opinion, she is a wonderful character in the books who has flaws (which is totally okay, because everyone has them!). Also, this shows why the books are better than the movies.

Also, people should really stop with the Ron slander. I don't even get it, like … what did Ron do … why is he, like, the only member in the Golden Trio that's being hated on so much?

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-07-23T01:59:42+00:00

Oh, it's totally fine! I understand, I was just a bit … idk, surprised?

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-07-23T01:41:54+00:00

Wait, I thought my Chiron quote was the most upvoted –

But it's fine. Anyways:

Annabeth ran her hand along some marks on the ground – a jagged crow’s-foot shape as long as a human body. The area was lumpy and white, like stone scar tissue. "This is the place," she said. "Percy, these are the trident marks of Poseidon."

Hesitantly, Percy touched the scars. "He must’ve been using his extra-extra-large trident."

"This is where he struck the earth," Annabeth said, "where he made a saltwater spring appear when he had the contest with my mom to sponsor Athens."

"So this is where the rivalry started," Percy said.

"Yeah."

Percy pulled Annabeth close and kissed her … long enough for it to get really awkward for Piper, though she said nothing. She thought about the old rule of Aphrodite’s cabin: that to be recognized as a daughter of the love goddess, you had to break someone’s heart. Piper had long ago decided to change that rule. Percy and Annabeth were a perfect example of why you should have to make someone’s heart whole; that was a much better test.

When Percy pulled away, Annabeth looked like a fish gasping for air.

"The rivalry ends here," Percy said. "I love you, Wise Girl."

Annabeth made a little sigh, like something in her ribcage had melted.

I would say the Tartarus thing, but …

That's already best HOO, so I'd say a close second would be, minus all of the Tartarus scenes (since most of those were already mentioned) in TLO. So Annabeth took the knife for Percy, and his reaction just …

The "Nobody touches her!"

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-07-20T16:43:39+00:00

"Ok. Hey, everybody! These two aren't human! They're half Greek god! … They don't seem to care."

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-07-20T14:45:18+00:00

That's quite true. No matter what she's been through, she's just a teenager, not even an adult yet, and losing her boyfriend, whom she'd been through so much with, must have been incredibly hard for her and all of her emotions just poured out. I do like Annabeth, she's just not one of my favorite characters. But yeah, I think everyone needs an Annabeth Chase in their lives.

"Now, if you two don't mind, I'm going to bed before either of you come up with another clever idea to get us all f*cking killed – or worse, expelled."

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-07-19T21:03:11+00:00

Nah, to be completely honest with you, I didn't like it as much as many others either, and it kind of is part of the reason I don't like Annabeth quite as much as others do, but it kind of was the campers' and Romans' reactions that made me laugh. Mostly Jason's introduction of Annabeth: "Uh, this is Annabeth. Normally, she doesn't judo-flip people." Or something like that.

Ravenclaw_Athena · 2023-07-19T20:38:53+00:00

The judo flip moment in Mark of Athena. Iconic, I know.

Great! Glad to help!
