I drew and colored a short comic written by @johnathonolyon that @boyroland lettered, please read it, enjoy it and share it!
anyways hermione is a cutthroat bitch and her demonizing divination is due to the fact that she literally #cannot with emotional forms of magic. quidditch? which requires an emotional partnership of trust with the broom? nope. divination? which requires an emotional openness and willingness to forego logical conclusion at the whims of fate? are u fuckin kidding me. patronuses? which require not just technical skill but also a deep connection with your own emotional core? uhhhhh we’ll just let harry handle that one.
movie!hermione, w/ her advanced emotional intelligence and absolute willingness to meet each and every emotional need the boys have, should have of course been good at emotional magics like divination. shes fucking superwoman. but book!hermione? who destroyed a girls face without mercy because she ratted out the DA? who erased her parents memories so she could fight in a war? who solved dumbledores’ mysteries using ancient runes, an art that is practically the math of magic? book!hermione will destroy you and she will do it armed with the cold hard facts and the cold hard facts alone. book!hermione doesn’t give a shit. instead of getting a regular pet, book!hermione was drawn to a magical cat who is self-serving and intellectual and helped her gather clues rather than serving as an emotional companion. i mean fck.
full offense but hermione is so hardcore and logic-driven and she literally could give a SHIT about ur feelings
I was gonna counter this with the fact she gave the boys emotional advice on their love lives, but even then she did it in a very cold, logical way. “Cho is feeling x because y therefore you should have done z.”
yeah i mean i love the movies as much as the next nostalgia fan but MAN the fact that they created this image of angelic “always right, always perfect, always justified” Hermione by placing her on a pedestal was one of the biggest letdowns.
Hermione’s logic was her greatest strength as well as one of her greatest weaknesses. that’s what makes a cool character. that’s what makes people PEOPLE
also ron was not a completely useless buffoon come on guys why you gotta do him like that and give all of his good traits to hermione instead of letting them each be full fledged realistic characters
there are some internet friends where eventually you start calling them by their real name and then there’s times where its like nah son your name is crispy forever
