was treated like garbage his entire childhood and still has an inexhaustible capacity for love and forgiveness

u can talk shit abt him but if u talk shit abt his friends he’ll launch a brutal verbal tirade against u

god tier sense of humor. sarcasm level 100 never misses

bravest boy on earth??? this kid found out he had to DIE to get rid of some crazy ass evil dictator and literally walked stone cold to his own death to save everyone else??

let’s not forget he liked his lightning scar at first before he found out what it rly was :( he thought it was cool :(

unheard of emotional maturity for a teenager. instantly understood that ron was insecure abt being the youngest boy in his family and not having a lot of money and always tried to find ways to make him feel better abt it

had cute lil daydreams abt being the triwizard champion before he got forced into it for real

UNmatched bisexual energy, literally always sizing everyone up and declaring them attractive or monstrous, no in between

so so humble abt his talents and abilities yes but also SO arrogant abt his moral code. he said my moral compass is the correct one and i will follow that and ur rules and laws can truly eat my ass and honestly that’s so sexy of him

animals always like him 😔

literally BORN to wield power and not abuse it. boy destroyed the elder wand bc he liked his old one better

drinks his respect women juice every morning and every night before bed rmr when he got so righteously offended that hermione suggested he thought the prince couldn’t be a woman bc he didn’t think a woman could be that smart

also rmr when he choked out mundungus for stealing shit from grimmauld djebfjnwbfne

literally so stubborn that the imperius curse barely works on him lmaoooo

successfully used crucio to defend mcgonagall’s honor like?? ok king go off!!

Literally came back from the other side and then called Voldemort "Tom" and then made him kill himself ayshdkekgsgs

HELLOOOOO saves draco’s LIFE in the ror even tho he relentlessly tormented him for 6 years previously

rmr how he offered voldemort a chance at redemption through remorse HDNSBDNWBDJ like…….wow. the bde is off the charts here

he is so forgiving and good because honestly if i was alienated and accused of being a liar for two years straight i would hold grudges the size of shell cottage

real talk tho he was mocked by nearly the entire school body on a yearly basis and in the end was still willing to die for them, to the extent that his sacrifice gave all of them protection against voldemort

idk if this is endearing to anybody else but pre-eleventh birthday harry having the most insane things happen to him and just shrugging them off? “yea i was running away from my cousin and his bully group and suddenly i was on a roof… it be like that sometimes” or “ohh that big snake talked to me and i really wanted him to be free before the glass trapping him mysteriously disappeared… hope he sends me a postcard! :)”

he canonly called lucius malfoy a loser

not only that but he dared narcissa to hurt him and said “why not have a go? they might be able to find you a double cell in azkaban with your loser of a husband!”

he met a lanky kid on the train to his magical school at eleven years old and when he saw said kid had a lunch he didn’t like bought out the entire candy cart to share

when he stayed at the burrow and saw all the oddities that come with living in a magical household he still thought that the most unusual thing was “the fact that everybody there seemed to like him”

i know somebody already said this but the way he hangs out with hedwig is truly the sweetest thing to me because wizards seem to treat owls more like their living email address rather than pets and on top of that harry was making sure to give at least half of his rations of food to hedwig while he was being starved by his uncles

he talked to myrtle because she was lonely when literally everybody in the school treated her existence as a minor inconvenience

he was genuinely friends with luna, he genuinely liked her even when everyone thought was was weird and “loony” he had nooooo prejudice towards her, he saw her as somebody who understood him and if anyone messes with her? i would not want to be you

harry is good at dark arts, not just defence. he resisted the imperius at fourteen and soon learned how to throw it off, at fifteen he cast a briefly effective cruciatus and at seventeen he cast an effective one. at seventeen he cast a successful imperio on his first try and used it multiple times, he cast a patronus at thirteen and learnt how to use a powerful accio at fourteen. harry is powerful and he is perfectly capable of becoming a terrifying dark wizards and there are moments in which he seems alarmingly close to doing just that but each of those times he has a choice and he chooses not to. he is not saved by casualty and “the power of love and friendship”, it’s his ability to love and accept love and understand love.

harry trying to give his winnings of the triwizard tournament to cedric’s parents and when they refused he gave them to fred and george for their joke shop

told Neville he was worth 10 Malfoys

saved Dudley's life from the Dementors even though he was bullied by him for years...

"it's time you EARNED it (respect)" ???!!!! straight in the face of the freaking Minister of Magic ahghdftjkkii

felt a rush of gratitude and affection (sobs) towards Luna when he discovered her drawings of their gang in her room

figured out that Luna has been missing for weeks (boy has brains and serious observation skills which ofc isn't enough appreciated)

supported and defended Hagrid till the very end

literally caught a snitch with a broken arm

defeated a freaking DRAGON and went on to actually RIDE one (it was his idea not hermione's yes movie watchers I am looking at you)

oh and shielded Hermione from Nagini's bite in Bathilda Bagshot's house

was LITERALLY the one who recalled Hermione was still in the bathroom when the troll attacked (oH bUt hE wOuLd'vE diEd wiThOuT hEr iN tHe fiRst yEaR !!)

remembered his potion lesson from six years back and fed Ron the bezoar when he was poisoned

loved ginny weasley so much that his thought before dying was HER ??!!!! LIKE HELOOO ????????

pretended to be dead in front of a crowd of death eaters while he was being cruciated by Voldy and absolutely nailed it

i know we have already mentioned how harry is basically born to wield power and not abuse it but there’s so many instances of it and all of them make me love him more and more; like the fact that he could retrieve the philosopher’s stone from the mirror because he wanted to take it but not use it

the fact that his hair is a fucking mess all the time is very important to me and it’s a very high point on my “endearing harry potter things” list

a part of him wanted to let love potioned ron go and embarrass himself but then he remembered ‘they were supposed to be friends’

when hagrid was yelling at the dursleys about harry “not knowing anything about anything” harry felt offended because he went to school and his marks were not bad so he says “i know some things. i can, you know, do math and stuff”

“this is the copy of advanced potion making that you purchased from flourish and botts?” “yes” “then why does it have the name roonil wazlib written inside the front cover?” “that’s my nickname”

and then he goes on to explain to snape what a nickname is “that’s what my friends call me” like hes just assuming snape doesn’t have friendhsvss

he still managed an exceeding expectations on his potions O.W.L. while snape was making that class hell for him and while actively training a small army and trying to overthrow the government and the year after he became a potions prodigy simply by following a better book

when he was under the imperius for the first time in his life by none other than a death eater, non moody ordered him to jump on his desk and harry resisted it by thinking “that’s stupid why would i do that ‘jump onto the desk’ no i don’t think i will thanks”

he literally does not care about authority when he thinks it’s being unfair like the boy will do what HE thinks is the right thing no matter what

he loves flying and quidditch so much i never shut up about it because it’s so endearing. when he sees the firebolt for the first time he thinks he has never wanted anything more in his life

he beats up draco with george after a quidditch game in fifth year and gets banned LMAO and he’s like #noregret

he cast a patronus during his DADA O.W.L. by looking at umbridge and thinking about her being sacked

this

•He threw a “Potter Stinks” badge at Ron’s head when they were fighting in the fourth book and said “If your lucky it might leave a scar, that’s what you want, isn’t it?” Like omg

•He told Hedwig to bite at Ron and Hermione’s fingers until it looked like they had written enough in there letters to him in the fifth book because he wanted to know more about what was happening in the wizarding world, but when he actually arrived at Grimmauld Place he felt bad 😭

•He didn’t want to learn the Patronus charm because when the dementors tried to attack him he heard his parents voices and that was the only time he was able to hear there voices LIKE 😭

•Are we going to ignore that Harry literally got tortured with the cruciatis curse just for Fudge to NOT BELIEVE HIM?!

•Everyone was sad when Dobby died, but Harry SAT AT DOBBYS GRAVE FOR HOURS IN THE DARK SOBBING. Not to mention HE WAS THE ONE WHO BURIED DOBBY😭

•Harry had to force Dumbledore to drink poison, and could have been killed by inferi since he went down to the edge of the island to get him water :(

•Harry was FROZEN UNDER THE INVISIBILITY CLOAK and was FORCED to literally WATCH DUMBLEDORE DIE :(

•Because of Harry’s natural kindness and need to help people, he saved Fleur’s sister along with Ron, helping them before he got himself out of the lake. (During the second task)

•That moment where Harry found a letter his mom had written to Sirius I think and started crying when he noticed they wrote there ‘J’ the same 😭

•I know this doesn’t really matter but I just love the fact Harry has green eyes- like green eyes are the most gorgeous things ever omg 💗

•Harry was sassy towards the Dursleys even though they abused and starved him- like what

•I don’t know why but I honestly love any scenes where Harry accidentally uses magic. Like obviously on aunt Marge, but I feel like it definitely happened more often then that. Like my magic would be going crazy all the time if I was locked up in the Dursleys house and wasn’t allowed to do magic-

•Harry has CPTSD (Complex post traumatic stress disorder), severe depression, and suffers from imposter syndrome. Tell me that I’m wrong.

•Harry never fully understood Ron’s insecurities because Ron was his 1# from day one.

Anyways to whoever’s reading this have a good day/night 💗🫶
