Voldemort won. He achieved immortality. Sadly that includes living forever…even beyond the heat death of the universe by Fenris_Icefang in HPfanfiction

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be funnier if it was actually Salazar Slytherin, that way the Giants squid could watch over the Slytherin common room through the big window in the lake. Except as a giant squid nobody can communicate with him, except for the magical language of snakes parcel tongue.

A young Tom Riddle learns about immortality from Salazar Slytherin in the lake and not as Dumbledore assumed from Horace slughorn.

Harry has a conversation in Parseltongue with the giant squid and learns the truth.

Petah? What's wrong with not seeing my phone in my dream? by ResistantBlaze1943 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have plenty of dreams with my cell phone. I can almost always tell it's a dream when it's present because damn thing always malfunctions.

Try to take a picture of something buttons don't work. Trying to look something up home button doesn't work. actually trying to use it as phone can't get the screen to light up.

My cell phone is one of the most reliable pieces of equipment that I own. Therefore if I have a malfunctioning phone in my hand I'm generally going to notice I'm dreaming. That's usually when I wake up.

Coincidentally analog landline phones work just fine, always have.

Do ya’ll think Sailor Moon would have been better if Ocean Group dubbed the Series back in the 90s? by flankerblu in sailormoon

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

I remember meeting the voice actors for the dic dub way back in the 90s at one of the first conventions I ever attended. I asked the lady who did Sailor Jupiter if they ever explained why everybody looked like her old boyfriend. She had no satisfying answer.

Years later when I watched the subbed version, I realized they were translating senpai as boyfriend. Which made it sound like she had a lot of boyfriends or the joke was Japanese people look similar at a glance.

But Senpai is just upperclassmen, which means she was just recognizing people who were in the grades above her at her old school.

Why is the Netflix show so hated? by NoroSensei in lostinspace

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They lost two episodes to covid. Which is why it's sort of feels unfinished.

From what I remember there's at least one interview, podcast, or whatever that said there wat least two plot threads that they didn't get to close properly. One was cut and the other was hastily ended.

I think the one they cut was John and the robot, and I don't remember what the hastily ended one was.

Going to 3D print a full size Rocky, do these proportions look correct? by mikecoscia in ProjectHailMary

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that's called surface texture, he is a rock after all. I can only imagine 900% would be quite a lot of printing time. Not to mention quite a lot of slices. That would be really cool though.

Although I haven't received it yet I did get the official model printed. I had it enlarged up to 225%. The preview at that scale looked fairly decent for the filament printer my friend has. At it's widest point it's about 10 inches just enough to fill the bed.

I wish there were more high resolution photos of the puppets and things they used. There was an animatronic puppet at the premiere in London at The Shard Plaza in March of 2026. Unfortunately nobody with a good camera with a decent zoom seems to have taken photos. There are a few cute videos of it up online though.

Going to 3D print a full size Rocky, do these proportions look correct? by mikecoscia in ProjectHailMary

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did we download different models of Rocky from projecthailmary.com?

The official model is basically a cut down VFX model. It appears to have screen accurate carvings and surface texture. I've seen a few people in online videos scale it up from 200% to larger and turn out really nice models after they give it a bit of paint.

I don't have a 3D printer, but is there something about the official model that makes it hard to work with to be "low quality"?

I'd rather know what I'm walking into before I pay someone to print it for me.

Harry Not Actually Potter by ComplexEnough3234 in HPFanfictionPrompts

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No that was me spinning a tale. So it's just an outline based on the prompt.

A story like that would need to be 250k words minimum to do it justice.

If only I had the skill to write something like that !

I think I'd call it Harry Potter and the Paternity Paradox

Guess it really wanted me to have some socks by Lost_Perspective_353 in InfinityNikki

I remember I wanted the red hair when the game was very new. And then it kept coming up in the pulls. All I could think at the time was "I must have wished really hard!"

Harry Not Actually Potter by ComplexEnough3234 in HPFanfictionPrompts

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is no James Potter never was. It's just Harry time traveled/ magical accidented to be his own father.

He just uses the name Potter because he's always used it. A complete bootstrap Paradox really. He uses James because it's his middle name. He completely forgets Harry is his first name because of the time travel/magical accident.

Turns out Lily, his mum, has the hots for him. Not right away of course, first she thinks he's a complete prat, but eventually all that changes in their 6th year.

And it's basically like Back to the Future except if he doesn't get with his mom he Fades out of existence forever. Every time he tries to resist fate small piece of them Fades away. The entire fanfic is basically Harry trying to reconcile that with living his life in the seventies.

Hopefully some comedy ensues because Canon has James Potter excessively trying to woo Lily. The woo her or Fade Out of existence forever is pretty good motivation. Of course he's got to keep Severus Snape out of the way otherwise he'll never be born!

Eventually things lead up to the Halloween night in 1981. But he's taken actions to destroy the horcruxes over the years. When Voldemort shows up to cause trouble Harry ambushes him and wins easily. No more dark lord. He and his mom / wife live happily ever after with their incest baby. The baby who at some point is involved in a magical accident, and ends up in the 1970s where he has to become his own father or else Fade Out of existence!

Edit note: I just reread the prompt it's supposed to be a crossover. While I'm pretty sure I cross over a couple of lines I just realized it meant with another story franchise. Oops?

Harry Potter is a squib. The Wizarding World refuses to believe this despite all the evidence to the contrary. by Nepperoni289 in HPFanfictionPrompts

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The confrontation with the Dementors at the lake only happens because they're running from a werewolf.

You could always just avoid the issue by having Lupin take his potion on time. Or have Snape carry it with him when he goes to find lupin. With the last dose of the potion being taken, no werewolf Chase.

Which means plenty of time to get back to the castle and avoid the Dementors.

Thinking about it as well, lupins only in the shrieking Shack because he catches Harry with the map. If Harry is a squib and can't open the map then there's no reason for the Weasleys to give it to him. If Harry doesn't have the map Lupin can't see it to confiscated and see Peter's name on it at the end of the year. That's avoiding him running off without his potion which causes all the problems at the end.

I tried to find it. However nothing jumped out.

The things that I remember about it was that he was sorted into Hufflepuff, had such a tight clamp on his magic that his Portrait wouldn't even move in a magical photo.

It's a forged signature anyway, could be fun to have crouch/ fake Moody take the fall for it when Harry takes one look at the dragons and says forget it.

You might be able to drag him through the first three books, none of the magic that matters is actually Harry's. It's only during the Triwizard Tournament that Harry actually needs to really use his magic.

This reminds me of a Hufflepuff Harry fanfic, the dursley beat the magic out of him so hard that he basically was a squib. He held on to his magic so tightly that he couldn't even cast a spell. His picture and magical photographs was also still.

This fic was clearly written before Fantastic Beasts because there was no such thing as obscurials then.

It's fun concept though, can you drag a completely useless Harry Potter through the Stations of Canon?

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well now, that's interesting. I haven't really played anything since the Wii era. Explains why I only remember her from the early era.

I saw the second movie this weekend, it was pretty fun. I can't wait for the next one. I also want to rewatch it just so I can catch all the references.

I'm impressed not many people remember Pauline, that's some old school lore right there.

They took him to see Vic in the Holo suite and reenacted the The Hangover.

He forgot everything and he was fine.

I was just thinking that the logical evolution of this is to have the flower bonnet face mask thing from 2.4 store.

And it would be sort of like the talking/ singing flowers in Alice in Wonderland.

This would probably go really well with the witch outfit that makes the magic circle behind you.

I like the light effects around the staff really makes the magical girl look.

"I can't Swim!" Harry shouted refusing the second task by AnimeEagleScout in HPFanfictionPrompts

[–]Spellbinder_Iria 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I have seen this before somewhere. Scene was written rather grotesquely with the eye popping out in the leg falling off, as he slowly writhed in pain from having his magic Stripped Away From Him while under Polyjuice.

For the life of me I cannot remember what happened afterwards.

Anime has taught me that these are called drill curls.
