I cant stop thinking about The Boy and the Heron.
It's horrifying. It's fantastical. It's tragic. It's beautiful. It's hopeful.
It's about grief. It's about family. It's about war. It's, "You don't have to walk the same path your ancestors did." It's "Your lived experience builds a world as deserving of your attention and care as your inner world" and "You inherited a flawed world, and you are flawed, and that is still beautiful" and "I made this beautiful thing and it's ending and that's just how it goes, but wasn't it beautiful?"
It makes me think about the worlds we make within ourselves and how they can be entrancing and wonderful even as they lead us to walk deeper into ourselves and away from those around us. It makes me think about connection, about how love can be so flawed sometimes but it is still something we need to hold onto. It asks "What if the monsters never asked to be monsters?" and "What if things can die before they're even born?"
It's about not being afraid of fire, not being afraid of endings, not being afraid of the world falling apart, of pain, of walking away, of reconciling, of finding new family and new love even as you mourn and miss what you lost.
It says, "Beautiful, wonderful things end, but afterwards, you can go home."
I'm going crazy.
Gabriel a few minutes after meeting Nathan:
(in his head: "If he doesn't talk he won't annoy me like his friend here.")
Gabriel after a few days with Nathan: *Lets him rant about something he knows nothing about*
(in his head: "never stop talking, please and thank you.")
The books are centred around Harry and we don't get much insight into either Ron or Hermione's inner struggles. But we get insights into Ron's character four times and 3 of them are from Hermione's perspective
“Look,” said Hermione patiently, “it’s always you who gets all the attention, you know it is. I know it’s not your fault,” she added quickly, seeing Harry open his mouth furiously. “I know you don’t ask for it…but - well - you know, Ron’s got all those brothers to compete against at home, and you’re his best friend, and you’re really famous - he’s always shunted to one side whenever people see you, and he puts up with it, and he never mentions it, but I suppose this is just one time too many…(GOF)
.
“You know,” said Hermione, as she and Harry walked down to the pitch a little later in the midst of a very excitable crowd, “I think Ron might do better without Fred and George around. They never exactly gave him a lot of confidence.” (OOTP)
.
“Take off the locket, Ron,” Hermione said, her voice unusually high. “Please take it off. You wouldn’t be talking like this if you hadn’t been wearing it all day.”
“Yeah, he would,” said Harry, who did not want excuses made for Ron (DH)
Look here. Harry doesn't understand him even one bit. But Hermione does. She knows he wouldn't have acted that way it werent for the locket.
And ofcourse the 4th one where Ron deals with the locket and destroys it.
i fully believe that James could not tell McGonagalls animagus form from any other cat so he just treated every cat like it was her
