Harry Potter - Granger Geeks: Because she's wonderful just the way she is!

*antarian angel* · 07-11-2005, 11:16 PM

Brunette, bushy-haired and formerly bucktoothed, Hermione was at first a bossy know-it-all who irritated Ron and Harry tremendously, that is until a shared traumatic experience with a troll. After that, she became an appreciated and vital part of "the trio". Though often referred to as "the brain" of the outfit, she is also "the glue" that holds the three of them together (especially when Ron and Harry fight)

Hermione was born to muggle parents who happened to be both dentists, oblivious to the excistence of the wizarding world until the arrival of her letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But her muggle upbringing did not hinder her from being the top of her class, knowing charms above her level, and casting jinxes that even highly trained witches can't counter.

As the best student Hogwarts has seen for many a year, she can be uptight about rules and school work, she often chastised Harry and Ron's constant and often careless rule-breaking. But although she has "loosened up" a great deal in recent years, she has kept a gooin thd head on her shoulders. Now, she doesn't hessitate to "bend" a few rules if she knows it's necessary for a good cause. She has also developed a social conscience. During her fourth year she makes great humanitarian efforts towards house elf liberation.

The years have been kind to her as well. Though often at times dismissed by Ron and Harry as "one of the boys" by her fourth year, she has proven that she is indeed a pretty GIRL, catching the attention of famous international Quidditch superstar, Triwizard champion and hero of the Quidditch World Cup, Viktor Krum.

However, Viktor Krum isn't the only one to have paid her some attention. As the most 'elidgeable Bachelorette' of the series and basically the only girl around tons of available guys, Hermione became known as "the most shippable" HP character. Fans have been known to read and re-read the books numerous times and spot these so-called "Hermione's shippy moments".

Justin Finch-Fletchey : "And you're Hermione Granger, always top in everything"

Terry Boot: "With a mind like yours, you should be in Ravenclaw"

Oliver Wood: "He could have kissed her."

Neville Longbottom: "She's always been really nice, helping him out with work and stuff- "

"Professor" Remus J. Lupin: "You're the cleverest witch of your age I've ever met, Hermione."

Viktor Krum: "He'd never felt the same way about anyone else."

Harry Potter: "But I don't think you're ugly."

Ronald Weasley: (When she kissed him on the cheek) "he seemed to come to himself slightly as they walked back across the Great Hall. He touched the spot on his face where Hermione had kissed him, looking puzzled, as though he was not quite sure what had just happened. He seemed too distracted to notice much around him..."

Sounds like she has quite the impact doesn't she?

But the most popular thus far is pairing her with everyone's favorite Blonde, raven-haired and red-head.

Miss Emma Watson

Ms. Emma Charlotte Duerre Watson's first foray into the world of professional acting came at the tender age of 10, when she made her superb debut in Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone, though her natural ability has been evident since an early age with highly praised performances in several school productions.

Inspite of her inexperience as a professional actor and the fact that it's often said she's "too cute" to play the "supposedly" plain Hermione, Emma portrayed her adorably, making it possible for us all to see a litle of ourselves in her character, and earning rave reviews from critics and fans alike.

TRIVIA: Although she played the part of bosy know-it-all quite effectively onscreen, in real life, Emma is a bit shy.

Thank you to Sade for organizing the opening post...and to Intrceptr350 (Kathy) for having the patience to do it. *wink* And to Ana Luthor for giving us some fresh banners.

Scabbers9 was awesome enough to open her own Emma Watson site filled with tons of amazing pics. You can find them at www.emma-watson.net

If anyone else has some great Emma Watson sites to share, by all means send 'em, and I'll see if I can add them to the opening post. (as if it wasn't complicated enough

Hello people.

Okay, people, let's get this thread movin'. How about a song?

Here's version 2 of a song I posted over at the Auror thread, but I have decided to present it here for all Emma fans to appreciate.

*puts on cowboy hat*

*sings*

[To the tune of "People Will Say We're In Love" from Oklahoma!]

Why do they think that Daniel's hung up on darling Emma?
Why do they say Katie's okay, but Emma's even betta?
There is a way to prove what they say is quite untrue.
Here is a list of things Dan and Emma shouldn't do.

Don't smile cutely at Dan
Don't always stare too much
Don't laugh at his jokes too much
People will say you're in love!

Don't look up and down at Em
Your excuses are the same as hers
Your eyes mustn't glow like hers
People will say you're in love!

Don't start holding hands please
(To us its nothing to get sick of!)
Children, they're suspecting things!
People will say you're in love.

Don't praise Dan's charm too much
Don't be possessive of him
Don't stand too close to him
People will say you're in love!

Don't take Em's arm too much
Don't keep your hand in hers
Do please keep your hands off her!
People will say you're in love!

Don't dance all night with Dan
Till camera flashes fade above.
They'll see it's alright with Dan
People will say you're in love.

Apologies to Rodgers and Hammerstein.

**heaven85** · 07-12-2005, 08:13 PM

Cool song!!!
Welcome to the thread pride_and_prejudiced!

pride_and_prejudiced · 07-12-2005, 08:16 PM

Thanks...love the song by the way!

jennifer8 · 07-12-2005, 08:23 PM

Beholder - I like your version better.

It would also help if Dan did't look her up and down like a starving man about to have his first meal in a week.

Actually, I hope they don't stop, but you know what I mean.
