for you, what were the most beautiful aspects of SoSoo?
ah, i love this ask and honestly there is so much i love about SoSoo but these 4 are the things that literally make my heart hurt:
Soo picking up So’s handwriting: The drama really didn’t do this aspect enough justice, and it felt like a minor throw in for drama. But to me it was so much more than that. She loved him so much that she ended up having the exact same handwriting. For years on end, she would write out his words to her because even if he wasn’t there physically, his words became ingrained in her soul and part of her being. And I just find it beautiful.
Soo imagining So’s presence: This completely shattered me. She literally went about her last days pretending he was there with her. And if an outsider saw her smiling they’d think she’s happy and has moved on, when in reality the only way she can cope is by pretending that he’s there with her.
So’s unfaltering loyalty: Once he started trusting her, he never truly stopped. Not when she didn’t trust him, not when she lied to him and not even when she wrote in an unknown language. He was completely and utterly devoted to her.
So’s determination to reincarnate and find her: This man has literally gone through hell, and will live his in complete loneliness, but its the thought of meeting Soo again in the next life that keeps him going through the pain.

The most precious place✨️
I have found the most valuable thing.
I think one of the reasons the Harry Potter Epilogue was so poorly received was because the audience was primarily made up of the Millennial generation.
We’ve walked with Harry, Ron and Hermione, through a world that we thought was great but slowly revealed itself to be the opposite. We unpeeled the layers of corruption within the government, we saw cruelty against minorities grow in the past decades, and had media attack us and had teachers tell us that we ‘must not tell lies’. We got angry and frustrated and, like Harry, Ron and Hermione, had to think of a way to fight back. And them winning? That would have been enough to give us hope and leave us satisfied.
But instead. There was skip scene. And suddenly they were all over 30 and happy with their 2.5 children.
And the Millennials were left flailing in the dust.
Because while we recognised and empathised with everything up to that point. But seeing the Golden Trio financially stable and content and married? That was not something our generation could recognise. Because we have no idea if we’re ever going to be able to reach that stage. Not with the world we’re living in right now.
Having Harry, Ron and Hermione stare off into the distance after the battle and wonder about what the future might be would have stuck with us. Hell, have them move into a shitty flat together and try and sort out their lives would have. Have them with screaming nightmares and failed relationships and trying to get jobs in a society that’s falling apart would have. Have them still trying to fix things in that society would have. Because we known Voldemort was just a symptom of the disease of prejudice the Wizarding World.
But don’t push us off with an ‘all was well’. In a world about magic, JK Rowling finally broke our suspension of disbelief by having them all hit middle-class and middle-age contentment and expecting a fanbase of teenagers to accept it.
Also. Since when was ‘don’t worry kids, you’re going to turn out just like your parents’ ever a happy ending? Does our generation even recognise marriage and money and jobs as the fulfillment of life anymore? Does our generation even recognise the Epilogue’s Golden Trio anymore?
