Episode 86: The J.K Rowling Observation Interface

Half-Blood Prince chapter 4. We have some news cleanup to attend to after Wizarding World Gold ate up the whole segment last week, as well as some exciting advances in the field of A.I to reveal. Then we chat about Professor Slughorn, zombies, and the continued nu-Dumbledore that is puzzling us so much. Finally, we take a trip to fanfiction.net to explore some exciting crossover content.

i'm super late to the party but i've just realized. it's so weird and maybe even unsettling that the book with the Ginny romance also has the chapter where Lily suddenly becomes the sassy Cool Girl in Slughorn's memory. I think Lily was just Belle from Beauty and the Beast before (smart pretty kind disney princess who sees the best in everyone), and suddenly she's extroverted, energetic, funny, even talks back to teachers who still adore her. You guys already talked about Lily and Ginny being similar in their superficial traits and it's probably not intentional but still weird how they get the same personality this close in time.

I might be misremembering but I'm pretty sure the Inferi were created and introduced entirely to set up the cave bit at the end and literally nothing else - I don't think they're even mentioned in book 7 and there definitely aren't any more clashes with them. I never even thought about how underutilized they are until this episode pointed it out bc they're such a non-entity I honestly forgot about them entirely lmao
