HP stuff

I remain further convinced that JKR is reading too much fanfiction.

Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince???? Oh, that's possibly even funnier than Occulemency. I mean, I read the title, and immediately thought of all the contortions fandom is going to go into to make sure that's Draco in fics until we know more. (I'm sure a close runner up in random bad!fic will be having it as Snape's kid, followed by the ultimate bad!fic theory: some Mary Sue girl pretending to be a boy for some reason I can't figure out even as half-awake as I am).

All of that said, JKR has confirmed the individual in question is neither Harry, nor Voldemort, which I suppose doesn't rule out the return of Tom Riddle. Although I'm currently leaning towards it being either a) a new random character courtesy of Durmstrang, b) Dumbledore or some relation there of, c) some new nightmarish first year pain in the ass.

I have to go get ready to go to a casting in Brooklyn now. Color me underwhelmed.

Amusement: I heard about this earlier today and have been waiting until now to hear what you--and a few others I know--have to say about it. You're so right though. If that title doesn't just cater to bad fanfic... Okay, enough, before I start giggling out loud.
