Well, sometimes we hit the bullseye and sometimes we blow out other people's brains, eh?

I think us fans have blown her ego a tad too much if she thinks the epilogue was actually...even remotely good.

Not that I blame her. :hmm:

But at least with this interview we know that Luna is a naturalist and it proves that the trio did more than just breed.

"Completely revolutionize M.O.M.?"

So now the government and wizarding society is a complete utopia now? That's even worse.

Excuse me while I revel in AS/S. It's the only thing keeping my sanity.

What sanity?

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I, personally, don't always want a sad, (totally) realistic ending. Sometimes the fairy-tale ending is enjoyable.

I agree. i dont like it when endings are sad. who cares if it's realistic? it's fiction!

So?

Most of my ships aren't realistic but they haven't been canonized for the sake of 'fiction.'

Don't get me wrong, I like realism sometimes as well. (Ptolemy's Gate being a good example.) But every once in a million (well, slightly less) I'd like an almost perfect ending.

Never perfect.

And not everyone's ships can win.

Well...if they actually came true they'd be ruined, so bleh.

I was just starting to get over the shock of OBHWF...but please no Ministry revolutionizing. :sick:

I never think Luna will be completely and totally sane.

Yes, I forgot you shipped fanon only. Almost.

I only said starts to go sane. That's bad enough.

People grow up. But I see your point.

But if she hadn't grown up by 17, there can't be much hope for future maturity...

I didn't mind the epilogue. It wasn't the best, but it was alright.

And don't forget, pretty much everyone in the previous ministry was killed, so it can't have been too hard to "revolutionize" it.

I can imagine Luna as one of those Hippy Ladies who lives in a tree and walks around barefoot, humming.
I say night I'm living in the forest of my dream,
I know the night is not as it would seem,
I must believe in something,
So I'll make myself believe it,
That this night will never go.

I always thought she'd grow up and be either a comedian or a children's novelist for the Muggle World.

And the entire time, she'd be entirely serious, and completely surprised that people think she's joking.

I like your alternative quite a lot.

Reminds me of the ending of Elf.
