Rachel Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I was wondering what you all would think if J.k.Rowling suddenly came up with a slash Harry Potter?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZombieDuke Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I'd probably squeal and buy whatever book came out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madlodger Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 JK would be writing fanfiction then, hehe! I am sure she reads it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest darma Posted October 2, 2007 Report Share Posted October 2, 2007 I'd buy that book as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnOfTheDead Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 I highly doubt she would make Harry Gay- how absurd... Although I do love to read slash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystiedaze Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 If she wrote it I would buy it. I love these stories. So until then I will continue to read what everyone else writes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mourningstar Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 Well, I'm sure it's of some exciting little tingling now, that we have the first gay canon character. Rowling outs Dumbledore While Dumbles isn't quite the popular, dashing romantic hero, he's still a very rich character. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vampirezdarkgurl Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I'd be one of the first people on line to get the book. As for all of the slash fiction...well that's what happens when all of the guys in the books are too HOT to resist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic Bitch Posted May 18, 2009 Report Share Posted May 18, 2009 As I am rather cynical person and also rather aware of J.K. Rowling's attitude towards some kinds of fanfiction based on Harry Potter, I personally think that telling about Dumbledore's sexuality that much later (especially as Sirius/Remus was practically canon until she broke both Remus' and Tonks' personalities to get them into proper heterosexual marriage), it was only rather pathetic attempt to cover her arse against people possibly thinking she has an anti-gay attitude. Maybe it is just me (being an ardent slasher) but it just feels like the most believable reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Girlycard666 Posted July 20, 2009 Report Share Posted July 20, 2009 Actually, I tend to believe Rowling only announced Dumbledore's gayness as a means of boosting sales after the end of the series. It had no bearing in the main story plot, so there was really no reason to come back (what was it, six-seven months?) after book 7 came out, just to tell everyone that a dead character was in fact homosexual. Either that or she was getting flack from certain groups about not having any homosexual characters. Or, again, she wanted to boost sales and saw how popular slash fanfiction was. Personally I love slash, can't write a story without it, but if she ever came out with a slash tie-in to the Harry Potter books, I wouldn't read it. Not unless I heard smashing reviews and knew what the pairings were. She would seem way too desperate to me if she ever did something like that. I'm actually rather curious if she'll try anything with the Bard book(s). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
