i love this photo because there’s a guy pretending to be a snake and Emma is like ??? bish whet and Daniel and some guy are gonna make out next to them and behind them there’s another guy being angsty on a ladder like “when will the old pottermore return from the war” and Tom is trying to flirt with his arm or some shit and is that a dementor in the back???? anyways
concept: a TV show runs for a decent number of years. More than four. The characterizations stay consistent. The writers don’t do anything wildly inappropriate like excuse rape or abuse. No one you’ve invested hours upon hours of your life into has their story reduced to a “shocking” death scene that has no meaning beyond that shock value. The quality of the storylines don’t take a sudden, strange spiral downward. When it ends, you leave it feeling bittersweet. Sad that it’s over, but glad you got to experience it and take a journey with some people who you came to care about.
Schrodinger’s fanfic: the fic you leave open waiting in a tab over and over; while it remains tabbed and unread it continues to exist simultaneously as potentially wonderful and potentially disappointing
