![]() ![]() Your Federal Agent mention in the summary made me think of this copypasta: Ok, this has been driving me crazy for seven movies now, and I know you’re going to roll your eyes, but hear me out: Harry Potter should have carried a 1911. Here’s why: Think about how quickly the entire WWWIII (Wizarding-World War III) would have ended if all of the good guys had simply armed up with good ol’ American hot lead. Basilisk? Let’s see how tough it is when you shoot it with a .470 Nitro Express. Worried about its Medusa-gaze? Wear night vision goggles. The image is light-amplified and re-transmitted to your eyes. You aren’t looking at it–you’re looking at a picture of it. Imagine how epic the first movie would be if Harry had put a breeching charge on the bathroom wall, flash-banged the hole, and then went in wearing NVGs and a Kevlar-weave stab-vest, carrying a SPAS-12. And have you noticed that only Europe seems to a problem with Deatheaters? Maybe it’s because Americans have spent the last 200 years shooting deer, playing GTA: Vice City, and keeping an eye out for black helicopters over their compounds. Meanwhile, Brits have been cutting their steaks with spoons. Remember: gun-control means that Voldemort wins. God made wizards and God made muggles, but Samuel Colt made them equal. Now I know what you’re going to say: “But a wizard could just disarm someone with a gun!” Yeah, well they can also disarm someone with a wand (as they do many times throughout the books/movies). But which is faster: saying a spell or pulling a trigger? Avada Kedavra, meet Avtomat Kalashnikova. Imagine Harry out in the woods, wearing his invisibility cloak, carrying a .50bmg Barrett, turning Deatheaters into pink mist, scratching a lightning bolt into his rifle stock for each kill. I don’t think Madam Pomfrey has any spells that can scrape your brains off of the trees and put you back together after something like that. Voldemort’s wand may be 13.5 inches with a Phoenix-feather core, but Harry’s would be 0.50 inches with a tungsten core. Let’s see Voldy wave his at 3,000 feet per second. Better hope you have some Essence of Dittany for that sucking chest wound. I can see it now…Voldemort roaring with evil laughter and boasting to Harry that he can’t be killed, since he is protected by seven Horcruxes, only to have Harry give a crooked grin, flick his cigarette butt away, and deliver what would easily be the best one-liner in the entire series: “Well then I guess it’s a good thing my 1911 holds 71.” And that is why Harry Potter should have carried a 1911. Now I want a fanfiction where this happens. |
![]() ![]() ![]() You are flinging the character around willy nilly, with no rhyme or reason for it. There is NO reason for his "family" to show up while he's in the hospital, while he was helpless, claiming to want him back. You had him say he'd have no say in them taking him back against his will, but he doesn't seem to be doing anything to counter any such future move. You also had someone try to KILL him along with two collegues, yet he's not acting like he has anything to fear from that and he hasn't even been questioned by the police, which is weird, considering that theory. Is this going to make sense soon? |
![]() ![]() ![]() Dude you are fucking pathetic at writing dialogue and interactions. You seriously have Harry obeying Catherine and Grissom when it goes against all that he worked for? He’s magical, he’s a prodigy, there is no where he can’t go and work if they pissed him off to the point of leaving. |
![]() ![]() ![]() Great chapter. I hope you keep up the great work and update it soon. Cheers |
![]() ![]() ![]() An odd and very chaotic story but it was an interesting read. Thanks for sharing it. |
![]() ![]() ![]() This fucking story is jumping from A to F and then to Q constantly. Jeez louise this is a mess |
![]() ![]() ![]() This story is pure fucking chaos |
![]() ![]() ![]() oh it's supposed to be house? that show sucked. shame |
![]() ![]() ![]() what are you talking about, in 2006 Harry would be 24 or 25. |
![]() ![]() ![]() hmm, considering the barkeep asked if he apparated that makes it known that he can do magic, and knows about it. though there isn't much else about it at all |
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm still getting over the fact that Dumbles and Minerva are Harry James Potter's grandparents! Nuts. |
![]() ![]() ![]() I read your profile and I can see where you are upset with JKR. Don't let her views on life affect yours. You already show that they don't because you write fanfiction. You took her work and made changes to make a new story yours. The same can be said for transfolks. They took an original, made changes and made it theirs. To let others affect whether you write is giving them power over you and that is exactly the opposite of your stand. You want to show your stand, write a Harry Potter story that shows it. On another note, I love your profile name. I chuckle each time I open a new chapter. Your writing is very good. I don't know if you had a Beta for this story or not. If so, they did well. I only found a couple of spelling errors, but that may be the program and not you. It has happened before and will happen again. You show great imagination and know what it takes to keep your readers going. I appreciate reading good work. Good Job. |
