HarryMort Prompt Night 31.5.13

Falling in love through books.

People think they know Harry, just because they've read about him in books and magazines. They act like they understand who he is. It takes Harry a long time to realize that people are most often blind to the truth and easily manipulated - and wonders, what if everything he knows was wrong too? About the Wizarding society, about Voldemort?

History is Written by the Victor

"I'm Ron Weasley," Ron muttered.

"Harry Potter." Said Harry

"Are you really?" Said Hermione. "I know all about you, of course—I got a few extra books for background reading, and you're in 'Modern Magical History' and 'The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts' and 'Great Wizarding Events of the Twentieth Century'."

I am just so sick of it! Sick of people who think they know me, just because they read something of me. I mean, honestly, most of the stuff written about me, be it in books or papers, is wrong. I am not some fucking hero! I am neither a liar.

I mean, honestly, is this the way they treat the one who is supposed to save you? Those hypocrites who have to hide themselves behind a fifeteen year old boy?! Them, who have finished their education, those, who are all mostly working, be it as a barmaid or an auror, they are even too scared to say a name! Or even write it down!

There are a ton of books mentioning my so-called heroic action, or the people who died for the light side during the first war. But there are no reverences to what the dark lord Voldemort was actually fighting for, there was no reverence what-so-ever of anyone falling for the dark side.

Which leaves me wondering about what could have been worth fighting for all those rich purebloods, that they lowered themselves to follow a mere halfblood. Because I can't believe that they are doing it for the destruction of the muggleborns alone. There has to be a catch somewhere.

And how comes, that no one I am asking this, can give me an actual answer?

Okay, that Ron won't be able to answer my question, this I could have predicted. But Hermione? What was her answer again? "Of course does he want nothing else but to kill all muggles and muggleborns. After all, professor Dumbledore told us this, and he has to know it best. Also, there is not a single book in the whole library, and, as far as I know, neither is one at 'Flourish & Blott's' that even mentions the slightest hint of another airation of You-Know-Who; therefore, there cannot be one." There it is again, one believes what is writen in books and doesn't queation if there even might be another side to the whole story. And the likes of her gets called the brightest witch of our generation. That's just sad and another proof of how feeble the British Wizarding World actually is.

But actually, I really shouldn't have expected anything else from Hermione, after all, the first thing she said to me after hearing my name, was, that she read all about me.

If I really think about it, I have to ask myself, who actually sees the real me, 'just Harry', and who sees 'Harry Potter', 'The-Boy-Who-Lived', the supposed 'Saviour of the Wizarding World'.

After all , most of the professors ignore it if I talk in class or don't do homework corectly, or even break a school rule, no, they sometimes even reward me for stuff with points, where every other student would loose housepoints, if not even get one or more detentions. There is only one teacher who doesn't treat me this way. Severus Snape. The obviously dark inclined Head od Slytherin House. Though he sees me as a carbon copy of my bully of a father, maybe asking him about more informations, or at least a tip about where I could find some more information. If I am lucky, he 'd actually lower himself to listening to me before sending me away.

Well, at least it would be worth a shot.

And the only other students I can be sure about that they see 'just Harry' are Fred, George and Luna. And eventually Neville. But I am not completely sure about him. He is way to shy to analyze him acordingly. Well, I'll have to meet up with the other three and ask them what they think. And if any of them know a way for me to get more information and their opinion of me asking Snape,

But I'll do this tomorrow. And after I met with my true friends, i'll think of a way to question Snape about the real reasons for the first war to actually start. And why politics was not enough to reach their goals. Because now I'll have to try to get some sleep, after all, I will have to be awake enough to put my plans about learning about Voldemort and the dark side into action.
