I cannot fucking stand the invincible fandom. Why is it cool to be racist to Amber?? Why are all the female characters just objects to them??? The shit I’ve heard about Amber and Eve is ridiculous and those are the same people defending Anissa and claiming they’d want to take Mark’s spot I CANNOT FUCKING STAND YOU PEOPLE
That infamous prison escape.
Something you only realize when reading the book first is that the people who watch the movies first are so misled on many characters ( mainly Ron , Sirius, James and Snape )
I'm gonna take Snape as an example first because I believe he has the most noticeable change. Snape is not a buff adequately attractive male dilf with a tendency to bully Harry , with a deep voice .
Bro is a thin, scrawny, girly pop with long hair with feminine handwriting, an almost unhealthy acquaintances with rich death eaters. Snape was never a purist, and even his love for Lily being romantic is questionable ( I personally think it's more of a siblings like attachment thing ) . Bro just wanted to get powerful, and Malfoy was like, " Let me just take this socially dumb boy to shower him with fake praises and tell him that joining the death eaters will give him powerful ). Snape didn't go around killing muggleborn people. He barely hated anyone, and the group he was mad at had 3 people who tried to kill him. One almost succeeded ( Read the books. Sirius mentions this in the Prisoner of Azkaban and the Order of Pheonix )
Snape is like the transcoded tragic genius who is being played on the string like a puppet and gets so cranky because of it that he ends up snaping on children and gives out mean comments.
I’m ovulating so damn bad !!! I’m horny as fuck for Viktor rn. I need him to put me through the mattress or a black hole in space to reach The Final Glorious Orgasm or whatever he said.
Snape was looking as though the first person to ask him for a Love Potion would be force-fed poison. (CoS, ch. 13)
Honestly, this seems like an appropriate facial expression to have after your colleague announces to a whole room of minors that you're the person to go to for learning how to make consent-impairing drugs as part of "the spirit of the occasion" of Valentine's Day. Props to Snape for being ahead of his society on the whole Love Potion issue (I don't think Lockhart thought the implications through, but Snape definitely did). We don't learn until Skeeter's article in GoF that Love Potions are banned at Hogwarts, and no one brings that up here, despite the teacher-wide dislike of Lockhart — I think there might be room for a headcanon that Snape was behind the ban...
I don't know how this went down in the comics, except that Conquest didn't get as much development into his emotional state as he did in the show. It would be a waste if the TV series didn't take this opportunity to expand on his character further and create the most toxic Old Man Yaoi that the world has ever seen.

when i’m at a haunting the narrative competition but lily evans shows up
i like the lore that piandao trained zuko but i don't think it was exactly the wholesome adoption that people like to do with zuko and any father figures. like in my mind piandao receives a letter from the fire lord like "the crown prince sucks at firebending and you're the best swordsman in the nation so we are sending him to be trained. this is non-optional" and piandao's legitimately contemplating committing treason rather than compromise his values and then the end of the the letter is like "we know you're usually selective we'll pay whatever" and piandao's like. okay FINE please pay me an absolutely ridiculous amount. and ozai agrees bc anything to get his failson out of his hair and piandao sends the money to the white lotus to fund a resistance group in the earth kingdom
and baby zuko, that turtleduck-loving mama's boy theater nerd, arrives on his doorstep and this is where most people would have him change his tune but piandao's just like "sure he seems cute now but he'll grow up to do imperialism". he teaches zuko the dual swords, a commoner's weapon, bc the ideal path for this kid who seems way too nice to be part of the royal family is to give it all up. but he doesn't think that's gonna happen. like iroh comes for a visit and he also seems nicer than the rest of the royal family but he did the siege of ba sing se so like. what does it matter that zuko likes theater and turtleducks and his mommy? he can still hate the earth kingdom and water tribes.
all of this is going on in his head, of course. in his actual interactions with zuko he's a very kind and patient teacher. he knows ozai's a bad dad and he wants to at least try to help this kid onto a better path. but it's not until he hears about the banishment and reports of a guy in a theater mask with dual swords committing treason that he's actually like "oh shit maybe there's some hope for this kid after all"
and he only really adopts him post-canon when iroh fucks off to ba sing se and SOMEBODY needs to help this poor kid navigate fire nation politics and i guess that's gonna be me. okay actually i like him now :) maybe i'll set him up with sokka
