Who needs sleep, anyway.

So very behind in:

1. Replying to comments. (You guys are wonderfully articulate and I crave the dialogue, so, dammit, I still want to get to 'em.)

2. Setting up GreatestJournal, InsaneJournal, and JournalFen to be something beyond placeholders.

3. Making new icons. So many DH jokes to be played with!

4. Writing post-DH fic. Isn't that the most heinous of all? Plotbunnies should always be fed. Hey, how about this for a standard disclaimer in the future? "All characters in this story are fictional and thus have no age."

I still have DH meta to spring on you, though. Bits and pieces seems to be as good a method as any, so, here's one: Remember the film of Philospher's/Sorcerer's Stone? Do you think that Columbus and Kloves were told by Rowling, "Listen, you have to make sure Harry really does catch the Snitch in his mouth; it's important later"--or did they just get lucky in choosing to include that in the film?

If we had scene it in the pensieve, you'd be right. Assuming I'm remembering correctly, we mainly just saw glimpses because it was occlumency, so they're still able to say that she was there and just not in those bits Harry got to see.

If I'm remembering it completely wrong, please pretend I never said this. You see, I've only seen the movie once, so I fail as a fan. D:

In the book, Harry sees it when he sneaks into the Pensieve; this wasn't shown in the movie - they changed it so that Harry sees James pantsing Snape through Legilimency. Regardless, Lily isn't seen at all in any of Snape's memories in the movie.

So, yeah. Oops! :)

I suppose there's a way around it, but the Snape/Lily will be even more out of the blue in the 7th movie than it was in the 7th book.

I...think we're misunderstanding each other. This may be partly due to the fact that I confused Occlumency and Legilimency in my first post.

What I'm saying is that, in the Pensieve, Harry could see everything. With the Legilimency (again, assuming I'm remembering correctly), we just saw flashes, glimpses. So she could have been there, and we were just unable to see it because they didn't show much.

But you're right, it will come out of friggin' nowhere in the seventh movie.

And if I'm still not making sense, it's because it's 2 AM and I'm tired.
