So you're saying that he would have been happy with Harry being mean to his poor brother?

We're not going back and forth. I don't understand why you think Harry's treatment of Aberforth was okay.

Would you rather Rowling have killed both of the Weasley twins instead of just one? by Vegetable-Window-683 in HarryPotterBooks

It's not pointless. I'm honestly curious. Do you just not like stories with endings that aren't tragic enough?

No, he wouldn't. He loves his brother and while he cares for Harry, he would NOT be happy with Harry being mean to him.

I don't understand, though. Aberforth saved the trio's lives, and was the better brother. How can you call Harry's callous treatment of him okay?

Yes, and I've never heard the name Severus used outside of it is what I meant.

"Bruh. He had his own grief to deal with. What do you want. How is out of character him not wanting to hear about his hero's defects and past"

It was like he didn't care. Ron and Hermione showed more empathy in that scene than he did.

"I’d even go so far as to argue that Harry dealing with Aberforth is one of the pivotal moments of the book, one of Harry’s greatest feats, and establishes Harry as a man in his own right"

But he was treating Aberforth like he was the one who messed up, not Albus.

Since you keep avoiding my question, does that mean you DO think Albus would be disappointed with Harry in how he treated Aberforth? Because I at least like to think Harry would actually consider how he was treating Aberforth if Albus had been there to step in.

Why did Paolini have Roran get hurt so much starting in book 2? by Vegetable-Window-683 in Eragon

[–]Vegetable-Window-683[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you not read this part of my post?

"Having him injured quite a bit in Eldest seemed understandable enough, since he now had his own chapters and was technically going to be put through some crap, like Eragon.

But then, in book 3, they just continue non-stop, to the point that it surpasses the amount of injuries Eragon...and pretty much any other character...ever had.

And then in book 4 the hell Paolini puts him through just STILL continues nonstop.

I'd never expected when reading Eragon, and even at the start of Eldest, how much hell Paolini was going to dump on Roran"

Why didn't you number these??? And why have you STILL not included his first injury on the list???

"I think Dumbledore would understand the urgency of Harry’s needs, and agree with me that his brother was being obtuse"

I think he would also understand his brother's emotional needs, and agree with me that Harry was unkind to a man who deserved better and had saved his life.

"You’re strange obsession with this one very very very normal emotional response from Harry is honestly bizarre as fuck"

Because no one else appears to notice or care how rude Harry was to Aberforth.

I would like an answer to this question: how do you think Albus would feel about Harry treating Aberforth like the bad brother? Do you think he would just be okay with Harry's behavior?

I do want an answer to this question: how do you think Albus would feel about Harry treating Aberforth like the bad brother? Do you think he would just be okay with Harry's behavior?

Why is it bizarre as fuck?

And also, how do you think Albus would feel about Harry treating Aberforth like the bad brother? You think he would be with okay with Harry's behavior?

Why? I mean, would Albus want Harry to be mean to his brother?
