||Harry is the answer!



The last time I made a post about the most sought after wizard of all times, Harry Potter, I promised I'd write more about that world of magic. Considering the fact that I've watched The Prisoner of Azkaban about thrice over this weekend, courtesy the Warner Bros. Channel, I thought it rather apt to bump the topic. The third part in the series, it features Sirius Black as the main character and quite appropriate to be showing around fathers' day. Because according to me, he's one of the most awesome dad-figures ever to be created in the history of fiction.

Right now, I'm on the scene where Hagrid introduces Buckbeak to the whole class. The scene where Harry takes a ride, the scene of Buckbeak's flight is exhilarating! Anyway, I digress, well we all know that. The expression on Harry's face every time he hears something about his parents shows so much longing, so much love! Near the end of the movie, (now I'm not speaking of the books here because a lot of people choose movies over the books, God knows why!), right when we've started to loathe Black for being a traitor, when the madness in his eyes is rightly interpreted as vengeance, only against the wrong person, the revelation that he's actually a pretty-goddamn-badass-but-awesome Godfather is mindblowing.

The idea itself, of Harry finally having a family, a home is so appealing. What's more than cruel is Rowling's decision to finally kill it in the next part after giving him a close save in this one. Its heartbreakingly unbearable! Yet again, I thought I'd post this as a tribute to the best Godfather ever.

Sirius Black,
      We love you.

Sincerely,
      Potterheads all over the world.

:)


PS : The title signifies Harri is the answer to my mood lifts!

||Tell me why..

He nudged her to bring her out of her reverie. She was lost again, zoned out, overthinking. "Penny for  your thoughts? Or do you want it to be punny?" She laughed in that way she only laughed with him and broke out of her spell. It was easy being around him, effortless. It didn't matter what she had to do to be near him or how many intolerable yet genius puns she had to endure to hear him giggle at his own damn jokes. Maybe that's exactly why she couldn't describe what about him made her happy. She had been asked that often, a lot, really. And she couldn't figure out how anybody who knew him even the tiniest bit couldn't understand it. It felt natural for her to gravitate towards him because he was it. Not in the epic love story and grand gestures way but just the I-can-just-be-myself-around-you-and-you-put-me-at-ease way. She was wound up and every year of her life and every incident that came along with it had built her up a nice, cosy layered wall tha...

Welcome to this stupid post

  It has been a year and a half since I last wrote anything, well, significant. (Coincidentally, also the exact age of my dog.) So I figured it was time to get out all the stupid. Here goes nothing. He’s twenty eight, almost twenty nine. January has always been a difficult month, it’s been the month of departures in his life. Most people are excited about the hope January brings with it, he’s terrifyingly cautious of the signs it brings - of people leaving, of things changing, and basically everything going to shit. His fears are not unfounded, he’s not a vague person like that. He’s seen things happen, he’s felt things hurt and he’s experienced darkness in its complete, mystifying totality. People think he's naïve, his problems self-made but tell that to the spiraling tornado in his head that won't quit screaming. Fast forward to two years later, it's his thirtieth birthday eve. He grew up celebrating and anticipating this month, now he plans to sleep well before midnight....

||Friends? Sure..

I woke up this morning thinking about writing this post because I couldn’t fathom how one year we were going crazy with friendship bands, everything was simpler, love was friendship, movies were influential and then I wake up today and it’s a pretty normal day. Also I wanted to try out my cute new keyboard which otherwise seems like money not so pragmatically spent. I wanted to reminisce a little bit about all the different kinds of friends I’ve had over the years. The one you rang first on the landline every time you got the tiniest bit of gossip. The one you went running around the school playground with, jumping off corridors as your fancy birthday dress flew up in frilly cuteness. The one you spent hours with coming up with numbers to cryptic-name your multiple crushes/persons of interest. The same one you found sitting on the first bench after assembly, new to school but so old and wise beyond her age (still). The ones you keep thinking you’ve said goodbye to but they keep coming ...
