Anyone know where I can find some good Torchwood icons?
There's stuff all over the place about the new Supernatural characters, they're pushing them really hard this time. There's some pictures and interviews here and video links here. Okay, I'll admit it, with the altered character description making her look like a British antagonist AND a mercenary, and with how pretty and unboring she looks, Lauren Cohan/Bela is starting to grow on me. Ruby still smacks of bad Mary Sue, though - THAT GIRL is supposed to be a better hunter than Dean and Sam?
In the same vein as AfterEllen's hot 100 girls list, AfterElton's Hot 100 Men. And again, does better than the straight lists usually do. I mean, hello, of course Jake is the sexiest major star. Also, GALE HAROLD! And Gael, guh. Not happy that Welling scored higher than Jensen & Paddywhack, though. Most of the Heroes are on there, but no Masi :( And, at 99 and just scarping in, SETH GREEN.

ack_attack made totally awesome Deathly Hallows quote icons, and so did phuck, here. They are, of course, HIGHLY spoilery. Rachel also made a poll about naming the kids. Personally, I think Albus Severus is much worse. Scorpius is just carrying on the family tradition.
How did Dumbledore know the plan for moving Harry? If he'd told the Order what to do before he died, Snape would've been in on it and they'd have had to change the whole plan. Does he have a portrait somewhere?
Why didn't the trio summon Kreacher while starving and miserable on the run? He could cook for them at least.
Why don't we find out about Luna? Feels like an oversight. Also, what did everyone DO? Surely their lives weren't defined solely by how many clones of pre-existing characters they were able to produce? The only person who seems to have landed themselves a job is Neville. I suppose we all knew Neville was the most awesome, though.
I never really liked Dumbledore as much as everybody else seemed to, and this book didn't make me like him any more or less than I did already. He's always struck me as a bit distant and occasionally callous, as overly intelligent people tend to do. The backstory was interesting, but not earth-moving.
OK, this is a list of complaints. I actually quite like the book (did I mention the Silver Doe scene yet? Because OMG. And NEVILLE!) but these things have been bugging me.
IN HI-RES. Can't wait to see this. Is it just me, or does James Marsters look hike he's doing his best Blue Steel? He poses like Zoolander a lot, actually.

Didn't snape find out from mundungus and confound him to make him suggest multiple harries? also, there is a dumbledore portrait in the headmasters at hogwarts office.
"Why didn't the trio summon Kreacher while starving and miserable on the run? He could cook for them at least."
They sorta explained this because they gave up the secret of the house to a death eater and they didn't know if they summoned kreacher if someone might come with him.

I assume she left this open either a.) so we could fanfic whatever we wanted and not have canon-wank or b.) spin-offs.
I'm hoping for b.)

Word on Dumbledore. I feel the same way.
Mmm, interesting question. I'm like... inside a bubble and can't think. There's a portrait in the Headmaster's office, maybe McGoogles talked to him? It's the only thing I can think of right now.

So the Death Eater was holding on to Kreacher all year?! That's a devoted Death Eater. LOL.

Personally, I think Scorpius is a horrid name, but it just fits that Draco would name his child that. Albus Severus is just silly.

I feel we were completely ripped off with that epilogue. It's the only thing about the book that I didn't love (well, that and Lupin's assy behavior).
James Marsters can't help doing Blue Steel. LOL He's just made that way!

No, I don't think there was a death eater hanging on all year, but they had no way of knowing if he was by himself and or under the imperius curse. (Can you put a house elf under the imperius curse?)

2. They didn’t call Kreacher thinking that a Death Eater could have hold of him at any given moment, and that calling him could alert them to their whereabouts.
3. I also want to know about Luna, goshdarnit!

Yea, I've always been interested in Snape as a character. The ones like him are always most intriguing.
