First Auror Potter I have ever painted was on his birthday, July 31st, in 2016, and it’s the first of this collection. I think that’s why I started to think of him as an +20 yo auror. Somehow, it’s like he’s growing with me in real time. My vision of Harry Potter has matured over the years. He’s no longer a young boy in my mind as I’m no longer a child or teenager. What motivates me is to think he’s got wiser and more serious and all shit he’s been through since he was a kid made him even more sarcastic then he was. “No need to call me sir, professor” would turn into something like “You need to call me sir”.
not to be Dramatic or Anything but lin manuel miranda insisting that nina from in the heights didn’t have to have some traumatic, abused backstory to give her depth and personality and acknowledging the hardships of college and academic stress and culture shock as enough to warrant struggle is honestly the best character-writing to happen in the 21st century, thank you
