Welcome to the Harry/Luna Appreciation Thread!!!


Credit to: Ana Luthor

“The Harry/Luna relationship is still quite vague. We meet Luna Lovegood, a dreamy and gullible kind of girl, in the fifth book in the Harry Potter Series. When Harry first meets her, he, like most others, thinks she is a bit crazy. But, as the story progresses, Luna actually becomes a friend of Harry's. She shows her dedication to Harry and his friends in the Department of Mysteries, something that I'm sure Harry appreciates. The Harry/Luna relationship can now be described as a friendship, but what if it's something more? Towards the end of Order of the Phoenix, it seems as if something may bloom between the two. Luna and Harry definitely are alike in some ways, which may help lead them in a path towards not only a strong friendship, but possibly a chance at love.”

[ Reasons ]

1) Harry originally thought she was weird, but now he understands her and knows he can trust her.
2) She has always believed him!
3) He realized he doesn't mind talking to her about Sirius.
4) She can see the Thestrals too.
5) She helped him get his story published.
6) She always told him what she thought.
7) She is not going to flip out over every little thing Harry does *cough*CHO*cough*
8) He's the most powerful wizard, and in case you didn't notice, she is the only one that didn't get injured at the ministry, other than Harry.
9) She is "out to lunch" as JKR put it and that may be just what Harry needs.
10) Harry found that the terrible weight in his stomach seemed to have lessened slightly. And it was because of Luna.
11) Because they both know what it's like to be talked about behind their backs
12) Because he offered to help her get back her stuff
13) Because he'd rather spend time with her than go to the end-of-year feast
14) Because they can ride off on a thestral in the moonlight without any trouble.
15) Because sometimes Luna understands Harry even better than Hermione or Ron.
16) Because he could trust Luna enough to tell her everything that was bothering him.
17) Because she makes Harry see outside his little world of the Gryffindor Common Room.
18) Because her flights of fancy help him to think outside the box.
19) Because her matter of fact manner grounds him.
20) Because Luna needs a bit of taming.
21) Because Luna doesn't need an excuse to use that Lion hat more often, but would be great if there was a special reason for it.
22) Because Luna needs someone who doesn't think she's an idiot and who's willing to stick up for her.
23) Because they're actually very alike in strange ways.
24) Because of the unconscious bond that they've created between each other.
25) Because Harry can't deny the fact that through Luna, he can see himself.

Wonderful job, Ana!!! Great title!!!

God, I can't stop staring at these banners, they are amazing! Now, since our job is done I'm gonna sleep. It's almost 5am here (and since we're on the same time zone, so as there) and I'm tired of typing

It was great to talk to you, Ana, I'm feeling very welcome here And thanks to Stephanie and Sam for the welcome too.

Musidora

Thank you, dear ^^" I hope the other Visionaries like the title too---since no one appeared to vote or anything, I just had to use it, because of our votes

I'm glad you're feeling welcome, this is the place where you belong, Simba I'm also really tired, so I'm off too. But first, from the last thread:



^_____^



Later,

chunkeymonkey1981

Woohooo...I come home from the bar and we already have our second thread!!! what an awesome night...lol...g'night ladies!!

Musidora

Third, my dear. Because we rock

*antarian angel*

hey, sorry i disappeared there for a bit.

i'm glad to see the new thread! i can tell that over time we're gonna have a lot of great titles!

as was mentioned at the end of the last thread, it is amazing that all of our H/L moments come from only one book! i find it really cool that we have such faith in a couple after one book, when all of the other ships have 5 books of "evidence." i think that just makes us even cooler.

*ADARA*

Indeed, one book of "evidence" is pretty cool.

I decided to stop lurking for a moment because I absolutely adore that Luna art and the title Simply delightful.

Luna was brought up at the Dicsussion Thread a while back. Feel free to drop in and bring her right back to the top of conversation. I re-read OotP again just to refreash her in my mind. She's one rad and happening chick and if Harry decides to settle down with anybody, I vote for Luna. They've got deep chemistry.
