Harry shows no concern for Malfoy when Neville and his flare goes up. I'm sure he would help out an enemy, in an emergency
Yes, I'd thought of that--though Harry saves Dudley from the Dementors. And of course nobody feels the need to help out in rescuing Montague. I think the difference is that if you're being smug you can still be courageous.
Totally. Even now, I try to avoid outright arguing (wouldn't know it, would you? ;) or discussing anything too personal (I can't bear it when people bring up their life experiences as a way to win unrelated fandom arguments, anyway.) and get nervous doing stupid things like chatting on AIM or writing an email.
This is exactly what I like about this kind of posting--AIM? No thanks. That way even when somebody points out something nasty about me I can deal with it in my own time and come back like I always knew it.:-)
not that I want to criticise the house, lest I be seen to need to discredit a fictional group or anything!
You have no idea how much I love you right now. *Bends Roxie over backwards and smooches passionately*
More balloons for you! And a million baboons. And a bean feast.
