meoraeI feel so strange today. I've spent a month creating my masterpiece *ahemloadofshitcoughcough* and my mind keeps telling me that I should be writing. Instead, I've been "studying" for science and surfing the net.
Pam came over to my house after school because we both wanted to study and she didn't want to go home. We came up with different ways to remember the different equations. I'm probably going to forget them all by tomorrow. My favorite one was for pressure. Pressure is equal to a force over an area. That can be simplified to P=F/A. I came up with Pam = Friends over-annoyed.
The one time I actually put an effort into the history homework and he doesn't collect it, how stupid can I get?
The people on mugglenet annoy me and I have no idea why I even went there today, but I was bored and yeah. That's my story and I'll stick with it.
"No writer in their right minds would kill off the whole world!"
I did. I'm not too sure that I've ever been in my right mind, but I killed off basically everyone and allowed Napoleon to take over the world in my novel. If it's written tastefully, allowing evil to win is a wonderful way to end. Allowing good to always triumph is way too overused.
"There are no indications that a homosexual character will be introduced in later books."
Does it matter? People are allowed to talk about Asians, Africans, old people, young people, heterosexual people, whether or not J.K.R has introduced any of these characters, why can't they talk about homosexual people?
"Homosexual coupling has not been introduced by JK, so for the time being, no homosexual fiction will be allowed."
Has the Half Blood Prince actually been introduced in a book by JK yet? No, yet we're allowed to talk about it. They should change it from homosexual to anything else and realize how wrong it is. Something involving homosexual characters or talking about homosexuality and how it might show up in later books is no different from anything else that might show up later in the books. We're allowed to speculate about Harry becoming Quidditch captain or whatever, but we aren't allowed to talk about Draco coming out? A homosexual story does not have to include any sex whatsoever or even hint at sex, just as a heterosexual story doesn't have to. Why can't mugglenet realize this?

"Homosexual coupling has not been introduced by JK."
That we know of.
"There are no indications that a homosexual character will be introduced in later books."
And how do you know one hasn't already been introduced? *coughRemusandSiriuscough* But seriously, not allowing it at all really sounds homophobic.
And slash is no less canonical than anything else discussed. If you think the character's straight, fine. But don't impose that view on everyone else unless it's been explicitly shown otherwise.
If you want to ban slash, ban noncanonical het too. Like Hr/H, or mutual H/G....
