I know I'm a day early, but I'm off to gigs for the next couple of nights so rather than be really late posting I thought I'd get it done before I went - anything to keep me away from NaNoWriMo (it's not going well) and building a rather tricky TV stand that I really can't get my head around the picture-only instructions for tonight.
So, Fantastic Beasts: Crimes of Grindelwald. What about that ending, eh? Obviously, I'm 'Protecting the Secrets' as most people still seem to be so I won't refer to it directly, but if you've seen the film you'll know exactly what I mean.
The first time we saw it as part of a double bill with the first film, my BFF and I sat there in stunned silence, both absolutely flabbergasted (I love that word) by what we'd just seen and completely unable to comprehend what was going on, whilst around us hordes of Muggles put on their coats and left the cinema moaning about the late hour, as if nothing momentous had just happened.
The following night at the midnight showing the reaction was more as we would have expected as most of the attendees were wizards rather than Muggles, and the discussion in the aftermath as everyone stayed rooted to their seat in hopes there would be a Marvel-type interlude at the end of the credits which explained everything was wild and speculative.
I thought the film was excellent although I'm obviously annoyed that it's going to be another year at least before that terrible cliffhanger is resolved - if it is.
Anyway, back to the reason I'm here and the sixth chapter of Dear Mym.
It's Charlie's sixth year as a teacher at Hogwarts and Severus has finally become the DADA teacher. Will it make him happy? Will a year pass without terrible things happening? And is Harry Potter really the 'Chosen One'?
Although the story hasn't had as many views as I might have hoped, presumably because it's not yet completed (which I totally understand, I hate reading WIPs that might never get finished) the comments I've received have been both kind and positive.
I hope you enjoy this latest chapter. As always comments, reviews and kudos are welcomed.
I hope you have a good week.
