#stun!

cheers, anon!

i say a lot that voldemort is canonically a simp for wee jamie p - and i'm right to - but i should probably clarify that i'm being slightly facetious when i do.

it comes from the fact that, in philosopher's stone, voldemort really gasses up james when telling harry how his father died:

Yes, boy, your parents were brave... I killed your father first, and he put up a courageous fight... but your mother needn’t have died... she was trying to protect you... Now give me the Stone, unless you want her to have died in vain.

he then repeats this in goblet of fire:

“Very good,” said Voldemort softly, and as he raised his wand the pressure bearing down upon Harry lifted too. “And now you face me, like a man... straight-backed and proud, the way your father died...

except we know from deathly hallows that what actually happened is that james ran into the hallway without his wand, flailed around uselessly, and then immediately died.

why would voldemort say he fought bravely, then? easy! because he thought james was hot and would, therefore, do anything to help him beat the flop allegations.
