Brain Dumping

and about the character, I think he is truly undeserving of such critics. as someone who had an identical childhood to harry, witnessed civil war and political violence within her country and had to work a job with crumbling mental health in her teens, I can tell you this on valid grounds that Harry had more strength and dynamics than you're giving him the grace for.

I think now that I am an adult, in therapy, i understand him even better. To be suicidal, sacrificial at such a young age and still harbor humanity in you is a hard thing to do. And people who usually seek solace in characters like Harry, happen to have traumatic pasts, like me, so we cling on every single details of the books. We can't ignore the boy surrounding whom the story has been built, a boy we relate to. I can see you don't remember much, so people are allowed to contradict you and on very concrete grounds. He might be a bit simple for some people and I can see why, but using adulthood to criticise his character is pretty flimsy. Every potterhead I know understood not only him, but every character more after becoming adults, especially people like us who experienced similar trauma like Harry. I think instead of going out of your way to hate on a character who is kind, brave and harmless at his core, stay indifferent. Nostalgia and relatability to trauma are also important components because like I said, it helps people remember great deal of details, and the said details when analysed, does say the complete opposite of your stance.

However, I am sorry you're receiving death threats over fictional characters. That is not it. And I also don't support JKR or her views, its horrible to say and the fact she is still using Elon's platform after the disgusting Grok incidents targeting women, children and she did not speak up about it. A vile woman to say the least. I don't like the fact she wrote the character who saved my sanity. I don't engage with her work anymore on any platform that funds her. Just dropped my two cents. Stay safe 🤍

To be clear, I actually enjoyed Harry Potter as a kid, and it really helped me develop my love for fantasy. Those memories are still important to me, and I don’t regret them. What has changed is me: adulthood has given me a more cynical and critical view of the world, and when I revisit the series now, I can see the flaws that weren’t as obvious before. I finally understand why my parents didn’t like it, and that doesn’t take away from my childhood joy—it just puts it in context. There isn’t a huge moral difference between enjoying media from your past and enjoying it with a different perspective; that’s just part of growing up. What becomes a problem is when people turn that attachment into expectations or threats—when others are pressured to see a character a certain way, or fandoms become rigid and only allow one type of fan. That’s how fandoms can become toxic.

I also don’t like J.K. Rowling—I never really did, even as a kid, something about her didn’t sit right with me—but I still respected and cherished the books, and later the films, for what they gave me at the time. What worries me now isn’t disagreement over a protagonist; it’s the number of people whose unhealthy obsession with media is clearly hurting their social lives and emotional well-being. At some point, nostalgia has to be balanced with perspective, or it stops being love and starts to become a problem.

Could i have have thought out that orginal post a little bit more and thinked about the other or more hard core fans, sure but at the end of the day that was my opion of Harry Potter as a hogwarts student not as the boy who lived and i was cyber attacked over it.

From an adult perspective, Harry Potter just isn’t a strong protagonist: he’s largely reactive, repeatedly carried by luck, prophecy, or more competent characters, and rarely shows meaningful growth proportional to the scale of the conflict around him. As a kid, that passivity reads as relatability and wish-fulfillment; as an adult, it reads like narrative hand-holding and missed opportunities for agency, accountability, and self-reflection.

That doesn’t erase what the series meant to me growing up, but nostalgia isn’t a substitute for critique. I’m not here to argue or defend this on a platform built for fandom, vibes and personal takes; if you don’t like what someone says on a fandom app, ignore it like everyone else. If you want to litigate theories and canon minutiae, that’s what Reddit is for. I’m an adult with a mortgage using Tumblr to hang out with I like fandoms, old & new; that was a one-off post, didn't think about it for a while but apparently it kept some off y'all up at night. Some of y’all need to let it go, grow emotionally into understanding the difference between supporting fandom & obsession—even Maggie Smith had to say it out loud, not to mention Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint are actively trying distances themselves from Harry Potter because it was toxic and harmful to their careers after, if the actor/actress can move on, why can't you?

However Clementine has no confirmed last names; Marsh is from living in the Marsh house with Lee (+ Kenny) & Everett is a fanon creation of Clementine honoring Lee as her surrogate father but that only in fanfic (even in the later books if you reference to Lee when offered, Clementine doesn’t call Lee her dad just the ‘man who took care of me’)

For my hc, ‘Clementine’ is her middle name and I got her a Korean first name to show her mother influenced & presence into Clementine naming and gave her a southern black surname, since we know she from Atlanta Georgia

Most parents called there children by a nickname or middle name especially when there young + it’s completely normal for clementine to be a first name but for my hc of her, clementine is her middle name

Her parents name were Ed & Diana; her father full name of Edward & Diana was taken up after pronunciation issues with her birth name Haneul (took Diana cause the both mean heavenly)

Dae-byeok Clementine Crawford

Dae, primarily means "great," "big," "large," or "grand". It is a Sino-Korean root commonly used to signify high importance, excellence, or vastness, often appearing as a prefix in names, titles, or compound words

Represents greatness, strength, power, and excellence

Clementine is a massive drive for the game, when play as Lee that later as her (with the Garcias she more of a passenger but what ever happened to them doesn’t end her story not really)

Byeok, means "dawn" or "daybreak," representing the serene, hopeful moment when night turns into day

It signifies finding hope or vitality within darkness

Clementine, originates from the word "clemency" (meaning mercy or forgiveness). 

That highlighted her when Lee first found her

Crawford, meaning "ford of the crows" or "crow's crossing" has roots in Old English and is strongly associated with Scotland

less common, Gaelic derivation relating to a "crossing of blood,"

Base on how you play her, Clementine can have a high ☠️ count

P.S. I know that on fandom it said different but just like Wikipedia, if you have a account you can edit the information on there & this is my opinion/hc that I’m entitled to have 😛

In any war there is always going to be propaganda so I like to imagine that there’s posters/flyers/graffiti around the galaxy taking about the “The Ghost Artist” or “The Painted Mandalorian” is fighting for you. 🫵

when you die, your gravestone said the truth - how you actually died, who you loved or saw as a friend/family, your deepest serect or worst aspect of yourself, any lies you kept serect, all the wrong/right deeds you did while living.

The Aguefort Adventuring Academy (A.A.A)  is the nations only public high school training ground for would-be adventurers. The Academy is an academic institution that nurtures teens from chosen ones to curse child & everything in between.  

Fantasy High is a 3 way story about 3 groups of teenagers that have to navigate through the hormones & uncertainty of being a teenager while having to fight monsters as a team for a grade. 

“Our mission here is to help each student become journeyman in their chosen field through world-class academics and unique extracurriculars.” – Mr. Aguefort spoken at a Education Board Meeting

Arthur Aguefort is best known as "Eternal Principal"  and founder of the Aguefort Adventuring Academy. Arthur was a human adventurer before the nation of Solace was a nation; he was well known because he mastered chronomancy; a difficult type of magic involving time, he managed to extend his life beyond human years but by doing so he is no longer aware of time itself – regularly forgetting the what present day, so it founded the Aguefort Adventuring Academy to be the ‘anchor’ for the rest of his life to have a place to reference to. Despite being the founder and naming himself principal, Mr. Aguefort isn’t the principal or an administrator in any capacity; he built the school in his image but couldn’t fund the school as whole continuous, he turned the school over to the Solace Educational Department Board and is more a spokesperson for the school.

The purpose of the school is to impart adventure based skills to students in their early to late juvenile years (13-18),  students of many classes and ethnic backgrounds are eligible for instruction and training from the school - It is a school utilizing public funding. There are at least three different buildings that make up the campus, in a rough A shape. This building contains most of the classrooms where classes take place, also houses the administrative offices, an auditorium, a library, the cafeteria, club meeting rooms, and the nurses office.

With four core block classes; 2 for your class (A) & subclass (B) and the other 2 for betterment skill (C + D) subjects. Extracurriculars are for sports or clubs that allows you to practice usually your fighting style & E Block is for extra lessons, teachers meetings or detention.

At A.A.A, it’s a requirement by the end of your first week each year to create an adventuring party which can be 5-8 people. *Solo Adventurer Students can only be Seniors* 

The Bad Kids, during their first week of school, they all managed to get detention and forfeit the ability to choose their party; they were the only freshman left so they defaulted into a party for the year. Name was registered by the detention officer; Arcturus Grix, by the regulations they must have a party name.

The Nixies, are a all girl group of a mixture of Juniors & Seniors that each have been dropped by or left there previous party for personal and/or disclosed reasons & knew each other beforehand so they registered as a new party together under a reluctant Antiope Jones. *Name was a inside joke of the Seniors.

The Bonus Hunters, all of them grew up in the same general neighborhood & already worked well together but all of them have an avoidant attitude but wants better themselves individually for the group, Kipperlily Copperkettle was voted to be the leader due to her type A personality. * Childhood group name.

Note Facts about the Academy inner workings

Party Leaders are important because on Monday during Assembly is when their weekly quests are selected. Divided by Grade, the party leaders each raffle vote for 3 quest they would like to complete for the week (1 quest per week) but other party leaders will be voting for the same quest

Received your quest details by the end of D block, students have technical until Sunday Night  (11:59 pm) to confirm completion but you only get credit when the proprietor  communicates it to the school – the closer to the due date, the least minimum credit is given | 0-4+ ,increases in grade levels

Types of quest assignments per grade:

Freshman = Fetch Quest

Sophomore = Control Combat

Junior = Search & Rescue

Senior = Assisted Dungeon Crawl

There is actually enough quests for each party (ex. 14 parties = 14 quests) most quests are ‘busy work’ given by the community itself

Since the Bad Kids refused to select a party leader among them, by default get the leftover (worst) quests that give little credit

Freshman & Sophomores do “non lethal damage” (to knock out) by default. During the summer before Junior year they are taught how to coordinate “lethal damage attacks ” + start receiving quest with combatants that fight back & Senior year they are put in situations that ends in the field hospital

Majority of teenagers don’t actually know how to follow through with there attacks, that does lasting physical damage

In the summer transition of sophomore to junior there is a mandatory course that preps them mentally for lethal situations encounters

The End of Grade Exam are an individual quest against the teacher | The weekly quest total are worth 40% of your final grade - ex. Sophomore fighter must do an amount of damage to the fighter teacher in a controlled combat environment to pass. This is has to be done this way  because to move to the next grade, all of your current teacher must agree that you are ready graduate to the next level of training

Completing the Weekly Quests are a safety feature so if you fail your end of grade exam, your not expelled from the A.A.A.

Teacher: Student Ratio is 1:21-48 per grade | Every party must have a spellcaster, healer & rouge (because of the surplus & versatility)

The ratio is skewed due to the academy dropout rate plus the transfer student rate | dropouts are not uncommon especially around exam times The school does have a budget but 80% of it goes into the upkeep & the other 20% is payment for the faculty/staff employed by the CoC Student Supplies will only be supplied for core classes but the are generic stock/ mass produced items Ex. The fighters all get armor but its basically ‘stormtrooper armor’ – unisex, one size fits all, its the cheapest in bulk armor the best money can buy Ex. Spell Components are provided up to a certain level (4th) but it’s a ‘first come, first served” situation & only teachers can request the components

The academy is a public school but with the constant influx of students (it’s the only public adventuring school in the country) but it heavily relies on monetary aid whether by government funding, family donations or leasing out students under apprenticeships  Student graduates around level 13/14 | faculty & staff has to be minimum level of 15 but with experience or certification to teach Activities & Extracurricular like sports, band, robotics etc. are available but they are bias to the class that it can benefits the most from Ex. Barbarian, Fighters & Paladin are more likely to get on a sports (full contact) team than a Bard, Warlock & Rouge Ex. Wizards, Clerics  & Sorcerers based clubs are more likely funds for materials than a Ranger, Druid & Monk club There is no uniform but school merchandise (jackets, bags, stickers etc) are given freely & often | Basic Dress code Unisex Rules Elmvile school system is too small for a public bus system however Hudol has their own private bus system

The academy doesn’t have a school bus or parking for students due to the town size & school upkeep budget

I don’t like WolfWren. Long time SW fan, Rebels is one of my favorite animated series and Sabine is in my Top 5 for favorite characters and I don’t have anything against Shin, I just don’t think they work as a pairing.

Mostly probably comes from being in the trenches of Sabine x Kestu vs Sabine x Ezra when the show first aired but I just don’t think that seen enough of Shin by herself to even ship her with anybody let alone Sabine.

Im not talking about it being cringe or the live season for sophomore year, I’m talking about the weaponization of improv instead of actual characters arcs; as someone that loved freshman year because it was light and had individual goals for the characters that didn’t require the other characters to be evolved and they only got involved when asked to & sophomore year was mostly just a wrap up of unanswered questions & plot points from the first season in its own quest.

I didn’t like Junior year; i liked some of the new mechanics like the rage tokens but the actual story just made me think if Tubi made riverdale instead of Netflix, it even made 13 reasons why look good (another rant for a different day). I couldn’t even finish the season by myself, i had to introduce fantasy high to some of my friends & rewatch it from the start with them to make sure this wasn’t me just being biased as a writer. I believe it made me feel this way for multiple reasons

It has been years since they played these characters and i know that they were happy to be playing as these characters again but to much times have past and they have grown past these characters, everything felt forced. CR typically gets comments of being scripted but this felt to giddy to be honest

They did start with a great concept of as juniors you need to lock in & decide what you going to do after school. We don’t see or meet any professional adventuring party, so we have to assume that the Aguefort Academy is a trade school and the graduates are put immediately into the workforce like military, law enforcement, private services. But instead of continuing the role play of dealing with the consequences of two previous seasons of attending a school but but never going to class, you put them in a combat that of course we know that they are going to pass

Making an entire new student party just to act as foils to the players but actual is just t pushing the argument of XP vs Milestone leveling and having the player not know them is insane. That’s small town 101, everyone knows everyone and the Aguefort Academy is the only public adventuring high schools in the nation but the school it’s self seems tiny so you how everyone in your graduating class

The jokes specifically about Kipperlily Copperkettle name and the dismissal of previous character arcs. First of all as someone that was born with a very ethical name watching players that have become one of my comfort show openly & repeatedly mock & jeer at a obvious ethical name for the entire season was disappointing and disheartening and that alone is what cause me to DNF the season the first time. It freshman & sophomore year the character arc’s progression in a way that made sense in the situations but since we don’t know what BLM determines as enough for a level up, it gives of the impression that the characters can regress in there arcs & then be rewarded for it, like we didn’t just watched an emotional experience is there past that explained why they know/can now do this

This all stems from having the setting be in a high school but doesn’t actually take place in an high school. Why make an entire adventuring high school and not stick to it from the jump. Why try to make the power rangers but not to give them the “with great powers come with great responsibility and consequences” speech. Yes that are teenagers but even teenagers have basic common sense, have complex feelings, knows that actions have consequences of they get caught, knows that parents & teachers may not like or care about them

Does this mean I don’t like D20 Fantasy High, no. Before D20 I was mostly watching Critical Role, Motherland and High Rollers; D20 was recommended from a friend of mine - I loved the Seven and i rewatch freshman & sophomore year and like many i was excited for junior year but seeing how it played out I’m not excited & probably not gonna watch senior year which does make me sad but i have nothing to look forward towards with Fantasy High Senior Year.

I believe if they would have done a Never Have I Ever, On my Block or even Cobra Kai style of story telling putting the being in high school element truly in the background; maybe there is an episode where they needed a teacher to point them it the right direction but have most of there NPC interactions being with people not connected to the school or them personally.

I first fell in love with the warriors game by rockstar which lead to me reading the books and comic; it was one of the first videos games I played with the unique “beat ‘em up” fighting system so I’m gonna apply each of LMM & Davis warrior with there own fighting style.

P.S. they are all the informal/street versions with some headcanon backstory added in

But Ah-Duo is a mother at heart and is just smothering Suirei with love, effection and support, something she never got from anyone other that loulan/Shisui and Suirei is just standing there like 🧍🏻‍♀️just doesn’t know how to respond cause this is actually new for her. Her and MaoMao would have been bffs for life, birds of a feather fly together if they met under different circumstances you can convince me otherwise.

I am a believer in found family in fiction especially in teen & young adults, so trust when I say; when Mel came to piltover at 15 with basically only Elora (another teenager) the Kirammans took them in because of course they would.

I know that are are technically medarda’s in piltover already (Jago & Jae) but they were never mentioned at all in arcane and the relationship in LoL is nonexistent, so we’re assuming that they medarda house is empty placeholder at best & straight up abandoned at worst. We learn early in the show by kid Caitlyn that it’s an open secret the council is ✨corrupt ✨ this includes her parents AND Mel. In Mel’s flashback we have no hint that she anywhere near corrupt but is used to a life of luxury; she could learn to tolerate/swallow this, from one of the oldest, influential & wealthy house it piltover, Let me paint a picture 🎨🖌️:

Idk why but Rumi feels like an caffeinated drink like Red Bull or Cold Brew to me and Zoey seems like one of those trendy seasonal drinks but I have no clue for Mira 😭 I wished she saw more of there singing specializations, like Rumi basically just belts every song Zoey has to little rap solo and then Mira gets almost nothing. I know that each moment in golden and in this is what it sound like but I just wish that we had more of their having their own song instead just a moment a couple seconds in the bigger song.
