No, of course there's nothing wrong with being emotional. People have emotions and that's okay. It would be hypocritical of me to say otherwise, because I'm not a replicant, and I wouldn't say it anyway because I'm not a Dark Lord. It's just that you get emotional over weird things, and - come on, let's be honest, you have a complete tendency to overreact. I don't think there's anything that bad about my situation. I'm well aware that it's not perfect, but I wouldn't want to trade it out for anything else.

And what exactly is so great about Sirius Black, anyway? You're not telling me anything at all, so it sounds to me like you want me to meet the lunatic that murdered my parents. By your own admission, you also want me to meet him for hugs.

Forget everything I've ever said about Dumbledore, you're the crazy one.

P.S. Look, no offence, but if you actually start crying about this, then I'm leaving.

...yeah, that would probably make Hermione and Ron's bickering look positively tame in comparison.

[rationality]

I'm forcing them into an alliance, it's just... challenging. And Draco's challenging enough on his own.

[dickandharry]

Good luck with that I guess. Just make sure Hermione doesn't punch him in the face. I'm not even joking about that.

[rationality]

The three of us lead armies against each other in mock battles every month. She could probably do a lot worse than punch him in the face.

[ like attempted murder, but thankfully he's not up to that point in canon yet. ]

[dickandharry]

Mock battles? That's a new one on me.

[rationality]

Professor Quirrell's idea. I think it's great. Our whole Defence Against the Dark Arts class is just Battle Magic now, because it's a lot more useful than anything the Ministry had us learning. I'm reasonably confident that my Chaos Legion will be able to take down the Death Eaters someday.

[dickandharry]

Huh... I had sort of a similar idea with the Titans but...nevermind.

Does your Quirrell wear a turban that smells really, really bad?

[rationality]

... No. He doesn't, but root-Hermione said the same thing.

[ he doesn't like the sound of "original". from now on, it's root and branch universes. ]

[dickandharry]

Good to know. Reason I asked was because Moldyshorts was leeching off the back of his head in my universe and he used the turban to disguise that particular fact.

[rationality]

[ something in the back of his mind bristles at the blatant disrespect to voldemort, but he figures it's probably just because he considers voldemort to be genuinely terrifying and worthy of that terror. ]

... Wow. That's... definitely not true for mine. Professor Quirrell is trying to help me take over magical Britain in the name of Light and Good. Or, really, logic and reason, but I'm putting the Light and Good logo on it.

[dickandharry]

...I'm not certain that's the greatest idea.

[rationality]

I haven't decided whether it comes before or after the part where I rewrite the universe, so that might change the greatness of that idea a bit.

[dickandharry]

Rewriting the universe is a TERRIBLE idea.

[rationality]

I have some objections to the way things work right now, and I don't see a way to fix them that's better than going to the source.

[dickandharry]

As a duly designated representative of the superhero community, I should point out you're talking like a supervillain.

[rationality]

Excuse me, I'm the hero. Fighting You-Know-Who? Saving all ofhumanity from death? Going to use my powers for good and become a Light Lord? I've got this whole Anti-Dark Lord Harry program worked out, and it's going just fine.

[ apart from the mysterious dark side, but that's totally not his fault. ]

[dickandharry]

You're also eleven. Am incredibly intelligent eleven year old with no common sense. That's like a breeding ground for terrible decisions.
