Another Reptilia28's reaper challenge featuring Hermione who also remembers but isn't allowed to meet Harry till he's completed his main task or till their first train ride.

Harry sent back to 9 yrs old with Ignotus as guide in dreams giving him 2 yrs to get rid of horcruxes and basilisk, save unicorns, and woo Hermione with wandless magic.

Harry tried to remember the reason why he was sitting, apparently waiting his turn, at the longest line he had ever seen. The long headcount behind him made him realize something was amiss. Then he heard it, "Not you again!" The death angel yelled. "Oh, gods, please have mercy, I'm going to lose my job, Potter, this is the seventh time!" A fic for Reptilia28's reaper challenge.

You know whike I do have favorite scenes I can’t say necessary there are a ton of lines that stick out. But that being said, there are a few. I think everyone likes to bring up Goku’s speech to Freeza and it’s with good reason. Though it has...multiple versions.

Yes, the original dub version is cheesy and very hero-ish but there is a lovable quality to it. I understand why most people hate it but this was the first one I heard

Then there’s the manga version which is significantly shorter but direct and to the point. I always loved Goku’s cocky “I think you know,” when Freeza asks who he is:

Then there’s the anime version which is nothing short of awesome. I adore Goku’s “Son Goku!” when declares himself with pride and confidence.

One of my other favorites and one I really think speaks volumes is Goku’s response to Gohan’s struggle against Cell:

Gohan: I haven’t changed...not at all!

Goku: Will you stop attacking yourself? I don’t know where you got it in your head that there’s something wrong with you cause there’s not!

I adore this line. It’s also a really good reflection of the self doubt Gohan struggles with when he and his father re-enter the world outside the time chamber. When it was just him and Goku, Gohan’s confidence grew and truly blossomed. Once he’s back in the real world with all those expectations and honestly, the rather mixed messages Gohan receives sometimes, it’s no wonder his pride took a dive. But Goku’s faith in his son never wavers and he can’t even fathom why Gohan can’t see how powerful and amazing he is. That phrase “stop attacking yourself” is so poignant because that is, effectively, what self doubt is.

But honestly? My all time favorite quote is this one:

It’s very different from the original dialogue which was Goku telling Gohan that that to reach Super Saiyan he had to “let himself snap,” but I prefer the English dub because it really makes Super Saiyan something special, something deep and spiritual and not something easily reached.
