day infinity of being tired of everyone always tagging OT3 fics with every single sub-pair when the fic does not take dedicated time to explore that sub-pairing as its own individual relationship with dedicated time spent to that dynamic, instead of solely examining it within the throuple, because it makes navigating AO3 tags a fucking nightmare where a significant chunk of the fics are not actually spending any time on A/B as its own relationship and it's just overtagged A/B/C

Bad jokes HATE to see Vi R. Cane coming
sometimes I’m reminded that ceret and terec are canonically trans/nb and were mainstays in ongoing the comic runs. I know I talk about them a lot already, but the fact that they are canonically trans makes their places in the comic and relationships with keeve even more special to me.
#post inspired by TDOV but I wanted to wait a second before making my own post about fictional characters#the only reason the above is in the past tense is bc they haven’t showed up in FotJ (yet?)—I hope that I can mentally amend that to present#also sorry if you’ve seen this post in multiple places. I really like these characters. fork spotted in kitchen.#star dorks#Light and life

and the thing about HP is, before JKR went full terf, and I was in the fandom/still loved the original books, I remember fewer people being interested in her intent to expand the HP IP in general because it ranged from “okay” to bad. Like I know we make fun of Star Wars the MCU, and the DCU, but people are still invested in those, and people are actively still into the Riordanverse and Suzanne Collins’s new Hunger Games installments—people will be invested in new IP additions if they’re compelling or good. Conversely, I’d dropped keeping up with the Fantastic Beasts movies bc the first one was that mediocre and just. dull. I’d heard nothing but “blah” from the Cursed Child, and iirc this was all before she went mask-off terf. Point being, I don’t think a new TV show is needed to either improve bad movie adaptations (they weren’t) or to expand on existing ideas/correct flaws in the books (she won’t), but because her writing track record just can’t provide anything of equal caliber.

The thing that gets me about the impending Harry Potter show is like. I'm able to, for entirely hypothetical purposes, put aside my disdain and disgust for the author's full-tilt bigotry and put myself in the shoes of someone who's still a Fan, like I would be if the author hadn't doubled, tripled, and quadrupled down on being a full-tilt bigot, and even then, imagining the alternate universe where JKR remained a staunch ally and well-meaning if clueless liberal philanthropic darling, I still can't quite wrap my head around why I'd want this show to be made
Everyone keeps saying it's going to be a Faithful Adaptation Of The Series and I'm just like... okay? This isn't A Series Of Unfortunate Events that got a bad adaptation and they had to go back and try again to get it right. The majority of fans liked and continue to like the movies, a lot, and despite some minor quibbles here and there, they're considered incredibly faithful adaptations. The Fandom isn't exactly divided on this, either.
Like, I imagine a nearby alternate timeline where JKR was never hit by the Idiot Stick That Makes You Hate Women and remained normal, and I remained a fan of a flawed but influential children's fantasy series, and I can't really think of a reason why I would be excited about them trying to make lightning strike a second time. Are people really that mad about Michael Gambon saying "Harry did you put your name in the goblet of fire" animatedly instead of calmly? Or is WB just worried that the incoming demographic of theme park attendees have nowhere near the nostalgic link to the series that millennials would, and that if they don't inject the series back into the zeitgeist, the golden goose might stop laying eggs?
If JK Rowling hadn't gone full terf and this remake was happening then we'd all be wearily rolling our eyes at yet another carriage being hitched to the endless train of unnecessarily remade hits that nobody wants. People would be joking about "they're making a live action Harry Potter now" (the joke of course being that the previous one was also live action this time so they don't even have the normal excuse). People would revive old comparisons of Lion King shots and Mulan shots and put up Harry Potter ones next to them and joke about how expressive the animation is in the original. I can't see any world in which anyone would want this.
