amataraThings I loved most about the movie:
Neville! Being awesome and yet so very Neville.
McGonagall kicking ass. (Also, Maggie Smith looked great! Wasn't she ill back when they were filming part I? She seems to have recovered splendidly.)
Narcissa! Molly! In general: wizarding mums for the win!
Luna being right about everything.
Ron not being comic relief for once.
The fight for Hogwarts. Every. Damn. Scene. Beautifully put together, and the atmosphere was just perfect all the way through.
Harry calling Voldemort "Tom".
GfgayezahgdgdhffSnape! I'm barely coherent about this part, but... ngh. Perfect. (Though, when Harry emptied the vial into the Pensieve, was anyone else thinking: wow, were there really that many tears? *g*)
So - anyone out there who could rec me some HP fic? Snape fic would be gorgeous, but I'll take whatever good stories that deal with the adult characters, as long as said stories are gen and properly in-character. I'm not looking for any fixits, romance, whump or fluff; I'm just craving missing-scene fic or character exploration that's bitter and painful and screwed-up and real. Only, how does one go about finding said type of fic in the proverbial haystack of h/c, mpreg and underage p0rn? Hmm... *squints and scratches head*

All Save the Good: Snape and Draco Malfoy during the events of GOF. Layered and foreboding.
All the Dreaded Cards Foretell: Snape and Dumbledore - not quite gen, but what slash it contains is non-explicit and portrayed realistically enough that I feel it belongs there. Dark and gut-wrenching.
Oops, I see I don't have a HP icon here on Dreamwidth yet! Will have to remedy this!
