Visionaries [H/L] #42 - WE SURVIVED CANON! ♥
Welcome to the Harry/Luna Appreciation Thread!!! Quote:
Banners by: Ana Luthor "She walked away from him, and as he watched her go, he found that the terrible weight in his stomach seemed to have lessened slightly.” -OotP, p.864 When Harry Potter first met Luna Lovegood in “The Order of the Phoenix,” he silently wished that the "distinctly dotty" girl with the wand behind her ear would not sit near him on the train to Hogwarts. From the start Harry did not immediately take to the girl whom classmates had deemed "loony". Their's seemed to be an uneasy acquaintance in the beginning. But during the year Luna proved herself to be a different kind of friend than he had ever had, one that Harry desperately needed, even if he did not realize it. Harry had "never met anyone like her" before, able to speak "uncomfortable truths", yet seemingly ensconced in her own mystical world, one he was unable to see. Through her whimsy and wild flights of fancy, she brought laughter, hope, and light into his dark existence. She let it be known that Harry was not crazy, and that she too could see the thestrals. Luna was the first of Harrys classmates to profess belief in the truth of his story that Lord Voldemort was indeed back. Through her bold and fearless action she began to slowly turn the tide of doubt and suspicion against him. When her father published the tale of his ordeal in "The Quibbler" she was able to give Harry back his credibility within the wizarding world . She continued to prove her importance in Harry's life by fighting bravely alongside him and his friends during the battle at the Department of Mysteries. With nothing but pure motives behind her, she risked her life to help Harry, simply because it was the right thing to do. After the tragic death of Harry's beloved Godfather Sirius, he found that Luna was the only person he felt comfortable opening up to. She helped to ease his pain and despair by relating the untimely death of her own mother. She seemed to fill the spiritual void in his life, tantalizing him with the prospect that our loved ones never truly leave us, they are just waiting for us behind the veil. With Luna, Harry feels comfortable and at ease. He does not have to worry about being judged or called strange, as both know the pain of being outcasts. Through Luna he is able to feel something other than sadness and grief, thinking of someone other than himself for the first time during the year. He feels pity for those who mistreat Luna, and is amazed at the calmness she has about her situation, the antithesis of Harry and all of his rage. At the end of "The Order of the Phoenix," Harry and Luna cement their bond though shared tragedies and a mutual understanding of one another. This friendship continues on into the next installment, "The Half-Blood Prince" where she continues to make him laugh and feel at ease while accompanying him to Slughorn's party. Together, with Harry's braveness and loyalty, and Luna's spirituality and selflessness, they make one complete soul. They are ying and yang. But what the future has in store for them is unclear, simply friendship or perhaps true love? Regardless of the outcome we will be left with two amazing characters with a deep connection that moves and inspires us all. ~*~ Written by Stephanie (chunkeymonkey1981) 01.

Daniel Radcliffe { download his interview supporting H/L here } & { his second interview AGAIN supporting H/L - it's near the end - here } 2. Peeves, the Poltergeist (the first to see that Potty Loves Loony!) 3. Betty Crocker (that's right, the cake lady) 01. Harry originally thought she was weird, but now he understands her and knows he can trust her. 02. She has always believed him! 03. He realized he doesn't mind talking to her about Sirius. 04. She can see the Thestrals too. 05. She helped him get his story published. 06. She always told him what she thought. 07. She is not going to flip out over every little thing Harry does 08. 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. 09. She is "out to lunch" as JKR put it and that is 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. 26. Because Harry needs a bit of taming, too. 27. Because these Ravenclaws keep sucking him in. - Poems & Stories by *antarian angel* (Sam): A Birthday Kiss + Harry and Luna Watch a Porno + Peace + Precious Days - Stories by Ana Luthor: Sitting on a tree + It feels like happiness + Words fail you + Dancing when the stars go blue + Go, Go, Harry Potter! - Stories by Tonya: Company in Solitude + Say Goodnight, Not Goodbye + Lose to Gain + In your darkest hour (finished) – Chapters #1, #2, #3 & #4 - Story by chunkeymonkey1981 (Stephanie): A kiss to build a dream on The Visionaries: 25 Threads of Memories by Sam (*antarian angel*) After 25 fantastic threads Of crazy, Visionary fun There just had to be a poem To celebrate all we’d done. For 25 threads, we’ve been together There have been a lot of laughs So many memories we’ve created So let’s take a quick look back. Once upon a time When the Visionary threads were first started There were four posters called the Fantastic Four Whose love of H/L got this glorious ship started. Gabi, Steph, Ana, and Sam What posting whores they were! All at the same time they would fill the threads Making the pages pass in a blur. Ana had teh gift of art Her banners made us *squee* She also had the gift of writing Remember when Harry and Luna were stuck in that tree? The Princess of Randomness, as she was also known Was a title well deserved You could always count on Ana To be funny and absurd. Dear Gabi was teh Queen of Quotes For whatever subject, she could always find The quote that it related to She really was divine! Oh, Gabi, how we love her She made every day so fun She was a great friend to us all We all miss her when she’s gone. Now Sam had teh gift for catching up She did this with long posts She also became known as the poem bitch, Although why is still unknown. One day she got some exciting news That really made her *squee* She was to be the board’s new mod And everyone shared in her glee. Now Steph had teh gift for many things She could take an idea and give it wings Whether dirty plot bunnies or catchy thread titles She kept us laughing with a devilish smile. Most of our titles are in credit to her As most of our uses of As the Funniest Person in Fan Forum The Thread Title Whore is superb! And then there’s Jess who proudly owns An intimidating pimp cane of her own. The Queen of Randomness she was crowned We’re all glad when she’s around. And while she may have teh gift for crazy There is something else we’re thankful for She was the one who gave us *bob* Now we’ll be smiling evermore. Amanda was the one to start the campaign On the UC thread To get us threads of our very own So the Visionaries would have a home. She was also the one to name us And for that we are quite grateful For without her we would be The Quibblers or Beyonders. There is a Visionary pair That stand out from the rest Ana and Gabi could take up pages Just between the two of them - no jest! Always arguing over who was pervier Or who had corrupted the other Always having the most fun Whenever they were together. Now, among the Visionaries, there are two special girls Evanna and Rachel, they’re named And while one came first and the other will last, We love them both the same. The Visionaries share a special connection That nobody can deny All the “coincidences” could make your head spin You can’t understand it, so don’t even try. Then came a gift beyond our wildest dreams “Dan is a Visionary!” we all joyfully screamed How excited we were How we *squeed* with such passion When we heard Daniel say He wanted H/L to happen! Vicky was the one who made for us Another lovely gift A magazine interview of our couple Too lovely to forget It had manips and quotes To make our heart melt It really was divine. Our couple at their cutest It really made us sigh. And then there was the group fic A fabulous writing idea Each would take turns to write a chapter Harry and Luna could go anywhere! It’s had a rocky history The fic’s still incomplete That dreaded “work in progress” That we must defeat! If you’re looking for a plot bunny You’ve come to the right thread. It’s practically a breeding ground The ideas just never end! One plot bunny that comes to mind Is one we had fun with for quite a long time It involved Harry and Luna and, oh my, a porn Would Harry get caught when Luna walked through the door? Or would they watch it together Maybe have a little fun The possibilities were endless The ideas were such fun! Then came the Power Rangers phenomenon It took us by surprise! Out of nowhere we were suddenly obsessed The mighty morphin’ powers could not be denied It inspired plot bunnies and icons Even titled a thread It made other shippers wonder “What’s wrong with their heads?!” The officials list was started Out of our great need to know What Harry and Luna would like the best From breakfast cereal to TV show. And then there were the mysterious stars Oh, the confusion they caused We turned 21, we had to have fun We got star-shaped, one and all. The Visionaries aren’t just famous on Fan Forum, oh no Just do a quick Google search and then you’ll know Type in “bazoogas” and what do you get? Visionaries, right on top of the list! 25 threads of Visionary madness And there’s so much more we could say. It couldn’t all fit into one mere poem And this is long enough, I’d say! You can see that we’re cool And random and crazy We’re fun and we’re talented too We’ve got the best ship in all HP fandom And can’t wait for the day when H/L comes true!!
