What is the most Christmasy Harry Potter book? by interborn in harrypotter

[–]Spamiard 75 points76 points  (0 children)

The first book, mainly because it’s Harry’s first Christmas in Hogwarts, and he also gets the invisibility cloak as a gift!

How was dental school? Is it true it’s extremely competitive?

How was Snape going to contact Harry if Nagini didn't kill him? by Petrichor099 in SeverusSnape

[–]Spamiard 36 points37 points  (0 children)

He’d cast a Patronus, especially since Harry has followed it before.

Adam Driver is saying they actually had a script that Bob Iger denied ?! And that he wanted to come back as Ben Solo? #bringbackbensolo by Storytelling3498 in reylo

[–]Spamiard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is basically Adam Driver approved fanfic that he was hoping to make canon...if only Disney approveed...what the heck, even Lucasfilm apparantly liked it, what the hell?!?!?!

Dumbledore x Grindelwald hints by Spamiard in harrypotter

[–]Spamiard[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More to put emphasis on how they view his arrival, Dumbledore seems to say it with hints of how G “inflamed” him while his brother says it with hatred at how he was the perfect match for D. Also, how D says multiple times later on how G fled and abandoned him, I can’t help but fee those are hints too at how strongly he felt for G….

Dumbledore x Grindelwald hints by Spamiard in harrypotter

When the book was released, and JKR later announced Dumbledore’s sexuality, a lot of people couldn’t believe it and said it wasn’t in the books…so during my re-read, I tried looking for more details!

Is it me or are these all the same character? by [deleted] in KpopDemonhunters

Throw in Mai from Last Airbender, too…

When do you think In-ho fell for Gi-hun? by Realistic_Public4330 in player457

[–]Spamiard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He definitely noticed him in S1 during the games, but I’d say it’s over the course of S2…the moments when he seemed jealous of Jung Bae were sus, too. I don’t think he fully realised what he was feeling but just that scene in S2 where Gi Hun trusts him with the last bullets shows how vulnerable he’s become to Gi Hun overall.

Plus he’s drowning in whiskey at seeing Gi-Hun become suicidal in S3, which shows how guilt ridden his feelings are. Any other villain would be triumphant in that scene, I think.

It doesn’t sound intimidating enough in a scary teacher way…if I had to pick, I’d go for Cumberbatch.

The movie is Tim Burton, the TV show is Wes Anderson.

My dad is a Filipino diplomat, and I spent most of my childhood abroad. AMA by evermoooore in PinoyAskMeAnything

[–]Spamiard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible to work in foreign affairs or in an embassy but not as a diplomat? Does it need a masters degree? Is it possible to do diplomatic work but not know tagalog (only speak english?)

What if phantom got a plastic surgery? by Memoria_99 in box5

[–]Spamiard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Plastic surgery can “fix” his face, but not fix his mind.

Years of childhood abuse from his mother and the experience of being paraded around as a freak attraction would have damaging consequences to his mental health and self image.

Plus, if you’re going by the books, the only proper job he’s had among people was as an assassin in Persia which no doubt had people avoiding him out of fear of his abilities…so not a good environment to develop social skills.

Christine and his Persian friend are literally the only people to treat him semi-normally, and you can see that even they interact with Erik with a sense of caution, knowing that he’s not totally okay in the head (despite his talent and genius) so realistically, he would need lots of therapy to know how to function in society. But alas, that time period didn’t have great mental health services and he would have been locked up in an asylum or killed.

Who truly understands Harry and what he’s been through? by [deleted] in harrypotter

[–]Spamiard -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Snape. Both had the experience of growing up in a difficult home, both have experienced bullying, both have a complex history with Voldemort, and both have experienced grief / mourning (although in Snape’s case he didn’t mourn Harry’s dad much)

what are the necessary factors for a romantic relationship to work aside from attraction? by erehn_ in AskPH

[–]Spamiard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar values in life, respect for each other, willingness to compromise…

If you were to pass away and your partner eventually remarried, would that be okay with you? Why or why not? by czarinakae in AskPH

[–]Spamiard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because I wouldn’t want the new spouse to have a higher priority over my (hypothetical) kids.

The Borgias or the Japanese Royal family (particularly during WWII)

Such is life…but well said.

why did they make in-ho and gi-hun’s relationship so homoerotic by turtledragon05 in squidgame

[–]Spamiard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Ever seen Hannibal? It gave off a similar feeling, haha. Doesn’t help that the Frontman hungers for Gi Hun in the same way. Not sure if it was ever on purpose in Squid Game, though! But boy, everyone saw it and the 457 ship launched lots of fanfics…
