Mandy here:
Very suitable indeed...
My thread about Harry and Bellatrix was laid low because I was
practically lynched, for daring to suggest the existence of sexual
desire between a woman and, what American's consider, a minor.
(Harry, at 16, is still a minor in the US, although a consenting
adult in Britain.) Some members were terrified the site might be
shut down or something, so we dropped it.
But.....::wicked grin::
Well Owl post from Hell never hurt anyone, right?
For those who missed it, I said before that Harry is undoubtedly
attracted to Bellatrix in more ways than one. Not just because she
killed Sirius, which is prime drive now, but he also demonstrated
that the he seemed very drawn to her picture in the Prophet. She
represents all that is dark and dangerous to Harry in a very
different way from LV. We, also know he is not afraid of her, or in
enough control of his senses to stop himself from chasing her down,
and falling right in to LV's arms.
Until Bellatrix, the series was missing a dangerous, attractive,
older woman who represents the darker, manipulative side of
sexuality to the teens. Although we did breifly glimps this in the
Veela and Fleur Delacour in GoF. Every school has that
one `sexy/attractive' teacher, who is the older crush the boys fall
in love with. Hogwarts doesn't have one, yet, so unless the new
DADA teacher fills this vacancy (Fleur anyone?), Bellatrix will do
very well indeed. For Harry if not the others. Very exciting!
We will see a show-down between them the two of them and I think he
will find her irresistible. I personally, would like to see Voldy!
Salazar use Bellatrix to draw Harry in. She is one of only two Death
Eaters left, and she holds Harry in the palm of her hand with
Sirius' death. Why wouldn't a woman such as Bella take advantage of
his youth and vulnerability?
What was it I said Harry would say in my last post? "Shall I kill
her...or kiss her before I kill her."
Thanks for bringing this up again.
Cheers, Mandy.
