Don't think he'll care.

Good is not contrary to chaos. You mean orderly.

No, he's definitely one of the worst.

No. Not "it is what it is". By giving up their experience, this thing here cannot happen. This is quite literal cheating. This violates cause and effect and seeing as there's nothing given thus far that would suggest this ROB skips causality, it is impossible, in this story, for him to have the emotional baggage of characters whose experiences he does not have.

You know, IQ has a specific scoring scale.

Yes, but there is a ton of evidence that Rowling ignores the context of what she had written. She wrote what she felt like. Which is why, for example, she caused Dumbledore to look downright evil or like a complete moron.

More than that, too.

Let me guess, it’s another one of those “the villains are actually good guys” nonsense takes. I hope not. Why is it so hard for some people to accept that bad people are, in fact, bad people? Few bad people have any sort of traumas or pressures or conditons twisting them to be that way. Many good people do and yet are good. We are not the product of our environment for the most part. Mostly, it is our environment that is a product of us.

How do you separate lines in a comment? Everything I try just smashes them together when posted.

That is very expensive.

I could see goblins caring only in that it endangers a source of a lot of money. Same for Dumbledore’s shenanigans making Gringotts look unsafe and incompetent.

Galleons are worth a lot. They’re not one USD or something like that.

True, but with Potterverse magic knowledge is literally power. So, its STRENGTH isn’t necessarily high, but the POWER of what being able to cast it implies about his mental capability for magic is a lot.

Ugh, the stupid binding nonsense. The only limitation on Harry that ever makes sense in fics is the wards drawing heavily on him due to how little he sees the Dursleys’ house as his home.

Don’t blame Ron for your cowardice in the face of peer pressure. Yes, I dislike him, but that doesn’t change the fact that following his lead was YOUR CHOICE.

To be fair, she should have at least told him they should get it examined for safety. And, well, make sure it’s even allowed in a school quidditch match. The Firebolt is pretty OP, after all. She could have brought up what happened in first year with the attack on his broom and point out that someone against him could use that as inspiration.

That would apply if they didn’t think a madman out to kill Harry was on the loose. A very rich madman, mind. For Hermione, I would feel disappointed in her and lose some trust towards her, but I would appreciate she was willing to risk our friendship for my life. For the teachers, well, they’re personally responsible for the students’ safety.

Get revenge.

Oddly specific.
