Yes! Romione And Dramione, Mostly Because Of The Bickering. This Is Why Harmione Gives Me The Ick.

Yes! Romione and Dramione, mostly because of the bickering. This is why Harmione gives me the ick.

If your reason for not shipping Ron and Hermione is because of all their bickering... you have a child's grasp of their characters.

Ron has five brothers and a little sister. You have to be quick witted to keep up with the amount of friendly fire going on inside that house. The loudest gets heard. He's always ready for a fight.

Hermione secretly judges people by their ability to keep up with her intellectually. Condescension is a reflex. It pushes people away before they can actually match her (because god forbid she lose).

Unstoppable force meets immovable object. Ron can't stop once he gets started and Hermione is too stubborn to admit she's wrong. And, the thing is, they both clearly love it.

Hermione wouldn't want a "yes" man and Ron wouldn't want someone who can't handle teasing. He challenges her intellect, and she gets an intellectual challenge. It's a win win.

What people think why i became a bookbinder: Oh she wants to explore her artistic horizon with those pretty leather bound books of hers. She even gives them out as gifts to her friends. It most likely helps her with anxiety or maybe she just wanted a more special costume made notebook.

Why I actually became a bookbinder: I just illegally downloaded and printed out several of my favourite fanfics and books and started binding them into books cuz I love reading them but looking at screens for too long gives me headaches.

A two panelled image of Terence McKenna sitting in the drivers seat of a car. In the first panel, McKenna says "Write it badly, dude" and in the second panel he adds "but write it" with a radial blur and zoom effect. I edited this image - the original version said "take it easy, dude. But take it". Now in slightly higher quality

This story did make me cry with laughter. Mostly because I remember going to Little League games and this is scarily accurate.

The Malfoy-Potter Quidditch Rivalry Continues.

10/10 agree. I got recommended this book from a friend and I had to message her and be like, "Why do you hate me?! You only told me to read the first book, so that's all I've bought and now I've got to wait on the Shipping Gods to get it to me quickly!"

The Shepherd King duology showed me what reading top notch quality fantasy feels like. From the world building to the the absolute beauty of every single character. There was not a single flaw in it. It's a masterpiece that should be talked about so much more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
