Hi!
I wanted to say that Im obsessed with H/Hr and HP in general..Im always reading H/Hr moments in all books...if you ask my sister she'd just tell you how it is to have a someone like me! lol...I'm always telling her about why Harry and Hermione are perfect for each other and also saying why a R/Hr relationship wouldn't work..she's always like: " Yeah...sure, sure" I always get mad at her when she doesn't listen! Lol. Every romantic song I hear I relate it with H/Hr in some way. And sometimes when I get bored or can't sleep, I start daydreaming how Harry and Hermione will get together. Lol.

And about my computer...well...I have lots and lots of HP photos( that could be the reason why my computer is going so slow...hmmm...)it's full of them. Really...I think is all I have in My Comptuer...I have lots of icons and videos and when im bored or something, I watch them...they all make me so happy! LoL.
And When I get to internet, first, I go to mugglenet.com to see what's going on in the HP World and then I come here to PK to see if the fanfictions I read are updated...hehe.

When I get to know someone that likes Harry Potter the first thing I ask is: Who do you think is going to end up with Hermione? Harry or Ron? and if he/she answers Harry, it means that we're going to be good friends...if he/she answers Ron...means that instead of talking about general HP, I'll have to spend all my time asking: WhY RON? and trying to convince them inyo HHr, of course.

The obsession, which has lately been consuming, has led me here: Portkey. Oh it started innocently enough, my brother urging me to take up reading the HP series. From there it mutated into something...well, monstrous. To the point where I began my Harry/Hermione crusade; sure that my ship was the one and only!

Well, damnit, you can only go so far with the fantasizing and wishing. So from there, you go on to reading fanfiction. As much and as often as you can, you steal into your room to read more and more stories. Between meals, classes, bathroom breaks...it's viciously captivating.

Months later...

What now? What now that I my eyes are sore and red from reading well into the wee hours of the morning? Write my own...naturally! That brings me to the present date.

Now, in classes, I spend the hours jotting down notes and ideas for current projects. But, alas, I am still somewhat of a newbie in the writing department. Currently, writer's block has taken over. After 2 diet cokes and a bag of chips, I am still stumped.

What's got me blocked? After Harry/Hermione's first *ahem* love-making...what would their words to each other be? Oy, I would want to say....well, nothing. But readers just won't be satisfied with that....would you guys....

Wish me some luck....hopefully HBP will be the cure...

My obsession has grown in leaps and bounds since I last posted in this topic. In the girls locker room at my school we have one bathroom stall and the paint easily chips so obviously all the girls have carved things into it like I love so and so, blah blah is a slut and things like that (except without the blah blah and the so and so but you get what I mean). Well today after Gym I was the only one left in the locker room and can you guess what I carved into the stall? That's right... H + H. Sad, yes? Most definitely. But I just couldn't help myself. It was calling me.

Another tale of my crazed obsession - I have this notebook that I write all my plot bunnies in so I can keep track of them. I have 17 !!!! Can you believe that?! And only 2 of them are not about Harry/Hermione (they're about Lily/James and Tom Riddle but you didn't need to know that, did you?). And I was listening to music last night and got two more plot bunnies about H/Hr. From one song! I have to stop listening to that music. Too bad I love that CD.

I watched West Side Story the other day (and I listen to the soundtrack all the time cause it's my favorite musical) and all I could think about was H/Hr (with a little bit of Draco/Ginny but that's irrelevant isn't it?). I tried not to but that was it. Me and my one track mind.

Pumpkinly Yours,
Lily <-- I'm insane. Or so I'm told but I'm pretty sure they're right. Always trust your best friends and your mother, right?

Miss Rowling was right. . . We are scary.

"unable to stop thinking about something; too interested in or worried about something"

Yap, according to this, I am definitelly OBSESSED. Before I fall asleesp my last thoughts are at H/Hr; when I wake up, my thoughts are at H/Hr; during my free time I think at H/Hr; when I walk I daydream at H/Hr.

I read all the ff I can get my hand on that envolves H/Hr. Lately I have began my on fic.

Guess what my greatest fear is (ta ta ta taaam):

I'd say that we would have a mass suicide on our hands. Though this seems to be a good way to control the overpopulation problem that we will be facing soon. Get people into a good book that gets people so obsessed with the shipping aspect of it that they commit suicide if it doesn't happen. Talk about the genius and evil of this idea.

Urazz, I'm shocked! Although I can see the genius in this....


I've been trailing Urazz in the Duelling Club forum...eh hehe...I'm a stalker

~J

Oh God, I've started dreaming about H/Hr together. They are so happy dreams which always have happily ever afters.

Man, I now have 30 songs that I hear just because they remind me of H/Hr, I'm officially obsessed.

This will open another chapter in "Harry Potter Bashing, A History"

Mod Note Deleted comments ~Mirtilla

Hahahaha Lol! This is great! With this many people sharing the same thing with me, at least my obsession is justified!

Anyway, this is probably off topic, but can someone point me into a website where shipping arguments (preferably h/hr against r/hr) is available. I've found fiction-alley..., anything else? I would be grateful for any lead from any of you, thanks.

Hurray to the obsessed people!

Wow! Now I know what Emperor Palpatine in Starwars felt like starting the war between the Separatists and Republic in his goal to rule all. Dance puppets, dance.

Mod NoteDeleted offensive comment ~Mirtilla

I'm horrible! Every time I do soemthing I always think of Harry Potter. Every minute of free time I have I'm on reading fanfiction, chatting here or anything to do with Harry Potter.

Well, okay, let me put it this way: when my mother once threatened to cut off the Internet because I spent hours upon hours reading H/Hr, I cried. Once, she even went so low as to hide my HP books. I am that obsessed. But wait, there's more! I have even crossed over to the D/E shipping. I am truly an insane person...

Let's see...I have dreams about them (living happily ever after with 2 kids, of course), I write about them (currently, I have over 25 fics, 23 of which I am scared to post), I daydream about them in class (it's gotten to the point where I'm falling 3 of my classes), I have 4 notebooks filled with fics, I've gotten my dear friend Patricia to draw pics, I have a shirt that has "H/Hr: The Only Ship That Makes Sense (besided L/J)" which I am going to wear to the HBP midnight party (along with my S.P.E.W. badge), um....need I go on?

And if H/Hr doesn't happen? Well, like Urazz said, we will gave a mass suicide on our hands. Considering that I know people who threw OotP out their windows and cried when Sirius "died", I think it is possible

Teehee, Harry Potter Bashing, A History Chapter 40 will be entitled, "Why Over Hundreds of People Are Dead: The Harry and Hermione Romantic Relationship That Didn't Happen"

Well, I think that pretty much sums it up...it's 12:29 am where I live and I've been online since 10:30 am....on PK, where else?

OMG My friend and I are nuts about them.
I once went to the bathroom and came back to my seet and she had written a little note in the top right hand corner of my refil saying 'Are you thinking Harry?".
I then turned the page and in the corner it said 'Harry loves Hermione' Next page: "Hermione needs Harry"
Next Page :" 'Harry needs Hermione'
Next Page: "Ron is jealous".

We always do crazy things like that and daydream about how they'll get together and realise they NEED eachother. Sometimes in class one of us will say 'JKR could be writing Harry and Hermiones first kiss RIGHT NOW!' and we'll squeal silently and grin all day lol.

We also think about how the scenes in the next movie will be played out with H/Hr and we'll re watch scenes in the other movies that have Harry and Herione in it for subtle hints.

We're mad...for Harry and Hermione

Aren't we all?

Lisa xoxox

p.s KEEP THINKING HARRY PEOPLE!

Obsession...ehm I don't think so...
I'm not obsessd with them,I just like them very much.
Since I'm reading the books Harry and Hermione are my favourite characters.
And after the third movie and reading OOTP twice I tought for the first time that they
also would make a cute couple.
I enjoy to take part on shipper disscusions and I love it to draw Harry/Hermione fanarts but I will not suicide me when they will not come togehter!^_^
They will still be my fave characters,no matter wath happens.

My Mom has also thretened to take away Harry Potter. It was a shame really. I was reading the OotP for the like, 6th time ( )and she came in and said that she would take it away if I didnt stop. She ALSO one day looked into my computer history and saw I was reading fanfiction. She actully disconected my internet from my computer. Haha, guess it didn't work now did it? ]
That's all for now!

Well, I for one can happily discuss HP with my best friend Becky for hours on end, either over the phone or over endless cups of frappucino at Starbucks ... ah, bliss! ... guess that must make us just a tad obsessed!


EDIT:

Mirtila, I understand ... Now, can anyone give me a tip on how to deal with caffeine overdose? When I'm talking HP, the coffee's really flowing! I seriously wish it was July 16 already. And BTW Kelsey, you are not alone ... I've read OOTP more times than I can count, and my mom's beginning to think I'm kinda flaky for watching my HP DVDs every other weekend! Hang in there, pal ... HMS Harmony is sailing on course!

Mod Note I deleted all the comments about the Pope and the Catholic Church. They were offensive to those that, like myself, are Catholic. Neither the Pope nor the Catholic Church has ever, ever called the HP series evil. I come from a Catholic country and no priest has ever spoken against the HP books. ~Mirtilla

My mom is grounding me from the computer every other week. She once grounded me from Harry Potter altogether and was mightily pissed when she didn't succeed (as you can obviously see). My sister rippped my GoF in retaliation to something I did (she really knows how to hit me where it hurts) and I cried for like 20 minutes and then she promised to buy me a new book (still holding her to that). I bet my mom's going to go mad when I disappear for like three days (I'll be locked in my room reading HBP) in July. I'm so glad it's being released in summer otherwise I would have to skip a couple days of school.

I also have dreams about H/Hr and just Harry Potter in general. It's often the last thing I think about before I go to bed because reading ff and the like is often the last thing I do before bed. They're all pretty happy as far as I can remember. I've got I think 17 story ideas for H/Hr and all end happily. They're all pretty fluffy (because that's what I like to read. When H/Hr are happy, I'm happy). I have a 5 subject notebook filled with drawings all cleverly disguised so no one in my classes knows I'm drawing Harry Potter instead of learning social studies or English. They just think I'm drawing other things. I've ripped out all the pages in my science notebook that have to do with science and now write ficlets in it.

I didn't throw OotP out a window when Sirius died but I did throw it against a wall. I flipped ahead a couple hundred pages to read something else and I flipped ahead too far. All I saw was "She killed him! She killed Sirius! I'll kill her! (hard to miss since it was in ALL CAPS! (but you see I've got it memorized that's how traumatic it was))" but that was all I needed to see. I slammed the book shut and threw it down at the wall and watched fall down and flutter open. Then I ran to it, said sorry, gave it a kiss and kept reading where I left off while trying to forget the horrible (x 700) thing I had just read. That's why I'm not talking to anyone while reading HBP.

P.S. You have SPEW buttons, J. Michelle?!?!?! Where did you get them?? Where can I get them??

Yay!!! I'm not alone! I am unhealthily addicted to H/Hr. At least in my opinion. I stay up all night (to 4 in the morning-ish) reading fan fictions and essays, looking at fan art, watching fan flicks, I've filled all the space on my computer with fan art, fanflicks, etc. Whenever I watch an Harry Potter movie, I run up to my room not looking at anyone so I have the image of Harry and Hermione fresh in my mind, and I bury my head in my pillow and start imaging fluffy little H/Hr scenes. It's become a nightly ritual. I think of H/Hr until I fall asleep and then think of them again when I wake up. I waste all my thoughts in the day time, I don't have any thoughts left in my subconcious to dream about them.

I hate it so much, because I am basically all alone. My sister and 3 friends are the only Harry Potter fans I know that are close to me, and they are all battling against me and my ship constantly. But I stand strong against them. I always get all excited when our family has pumpkin pie, I doodle pictures of pumpkin pie all over my stuff because I can't draw fan art.

I'm so completely and utterly mentally set on H/Hr happening. I am one of those people who has to be right. I want to badly to prove wrong all the people who don't believe me when I say it will be H/Hr. I'm so set on it, I might never get over it if they don't. I'll die an unhappy woman. I guess it's because so many things I want to happen so badly in my life never do nor ever will, and so I'm hoping this won't be the same as all those other things.

I wouldn't say that I reached the 'obsessive' level until just recently. About a month or so ago, I grabbed the books from the library and re-read them all, and now I'm trying to read them again before they need to be returned. I got into HP on the net since then, and now I'm hooked. Of course, I had no idea about shipping or fanfiction when I started, but I have learned a great deal in a short time and I now end up spending hours on Portkey's fics and forums. So far, I have yet to come across a HP site offering anything better in terms of what I want. Keep it up! I also thought I'd mention that I had my first H/Hr dream last night. I don't really remember what it was about but I think I was in the role of Harry and I definitely liked Hermione.

Glad I'm not alone

*gets down on her knees* What has happend to my life? I cant stop thinking about H/Hr.

Okay...that felt good, all better now.

Waah! i think that i'm already to obssesed with H/Hr that i'm already dreaming about it! *sigh*

i think i will have nightmares if H/Hr doesn't happen.

May I ask permission to join the obsessed H/Hr shippers club? Day dreaming about them, night dreaming about them, not being able to sleep whenever I fear R/Hr has the lead... well, you get the picure, all of you practically said everything there is into an obsessed fan!

Although being this obsessed, I do like to read fanfiction where either Harry or Hermione dies in the end. It makes me cry a whole river...

Anyway, I've gotten to the point where I try to engage my closest friends into discussing HP ships all the time (I even did it with my Philosophy teacher!), although, to my disappointment, they either couldn't care less or are too afraid that I might bable on for hours.

Welcome to the club, here is you member ship card


Me too I love stories that make me cry.

*holds membership card high in the air so that everyone can see it*

thanks!

I'd like to write some fanfiction aside from just reading it, but I suck at writing so every idea I get goes down the drain...

Well, maybe one day I'll get there.... or not... lol

I think my friends are close to committing me to an institution of some sort. Which is why I have learned to shut up about H/Hr in their presence.

My only hope is that HBP will be so satisfying in H/Hr respect that I won't have to be in such limbo and uncertainty but can then just relax and wait for book 7.

Then, maybe this obsession will stop.

I don't think my obsession would end if H/HR happened. Well, at least not as fast as it would if *slaps self around a bit with a large and very stinky trout* Ron was the one to be with Hermione. I wouldn't stop sailing this ship, but my passion would be at an all-time low... maybe I'd read some fan fiction until I realised it was no good and that it wouldn't bring Harry and Hermione together...

Ok, before I go way too

I don't think JKR is going to let the secret out until book 7. That is my opinion, but of course, I do remember JKR saying something like "Harry may get a kiss or two in this one". I wouldn't like it to be any one else than Herms (nor would I like Herms to start with another guy before Harry, even if they did get together in the end) but I think JKR wouldn't open pandora's box until the last one, 'coz then interest would be lower.

Shipping puts the stakes higher and people get interested even more.

ok ok, I know,

Maybe I'm a masoquist but mayb eit would be better to have just a bigger build-up for our favourite pair than actual romance between them...

Anyway, obsession is at an all-time high and keeps growing every day until June 16th! Then, hopefully, our obsession will grow even more!

Chickabiddy Made them myself of course! *smiles proudly*

And you wouldn't believe how dorky I am! For my Sweet 15 birthday, which was a couple of years ago *sighs*, my dress was...Red and Gold. *shakes head* That's how I knew that I had HP-OCD. Honestly, Red and Gold!!

Alas, my friends rolled their eyes and they said that it wouldn't be my party if there wasn't something Harry Potter related. I am truly a sad person!

Hey, I didn't get a membership card...*pouts* Okay, off to read more fluffy H/Hr fics that warm my heart and made me wish I had a relationship like Harry and Hermione's...

That's so cool. I'm getting new Converse and they're going to be red with gold laces...*facepalm* I love it though. Yeah all my friends know that my Birthday/Christmas list is not complete unless I ask for/receive something Harry Potter. And don't worry I've got HP-OCD too. Have for awhile. I think it's incurable (but who'd want to be cured??)

I'd like a membership card too!! Oh how I wish I could read fanfics but I have a social studies paper to write! *cries*

I really think the idea and find myself noticing H/HR intances while re reading the books. And, it makes me feel all fluffy! But I don't think I'm obssesed! Maybe more on D/G, but definatly reaching it on H/Hr!

I WANT RED AND GOLD CONVERSES!!!!!! Right now I'll settle for gold pants and red shirt! *sigh*

Oh, that is sooo cool. I hope you don't mind, but I am totallly steeling your idea!!

-J. Michelle

Geez... I just read a few posts here... and I thought I was obsessed when I used to think about H/Hr 24/7. I mean, I used to think I was obsessed, but I can't hold a candle up to any of the people here. I don't think I'm even going to try.

- Mark

[/I]Obsessed? Maybe just a little. *winces under glares from family and friends*. Okay, maybe alot. I don't dream about them at night, but I do daydream about them all day! My mother has threatened to send me to a phycologist (jokingly!). My father once took my Hp books away and forced me to go outside, with other people. I have the protective-hug-from-the-werewolf picture I found in the newspaper taped above my bed. I read fanfiction nearly everyday. If a song comes on the radio that connects to the ship, I atomatically make it one of my favorites. I got excited when I watched Disney's extra scenes of A Wrinkle in Time, and heard Mrs. Who quote Albus Dumbledore (though I guess that just HP obsessing, not H/Hr).

Ben: "When you're one step short of crazy what do you get?"
Riley: "Obssessed."
Ben: "Passionate"

~ Ben Gates and Riley Pool in 'National Treasure'

Hehehe I think that little exchange sums up us H/Hr shippers quite nicely. We're not obessessed we're passionate. hehehe I'm deftinately in that category. I swear it doesn't take much for me to start thinking about them. I even compare other characters in other books/movies to them! And I'm guilty of the song thing. Whenever I hear a song that even remotely suggests H/Hr I immedietly love it. My friends think I'm nuts. So do my parents. Though I have managed to convert two of my friends into H/Hr shippers hehehe. One of them was a R/Hr shipper *shudders* Mind you I have nothing against Ron. I like him. I just think the idea of him and Hermione together doesn't fit right. He and Luna I think are a much better pair.

I can't even read fan fic that isn't H/Hr. I write it myself (though I don't think it's any good but others say otherwise). Heck I even have a pumpkin pie scented candle (And yes I thought of H/Hr when I bought it too!) So if this is obssession or just being passionate then I'm guilty as charged!

For some, like myself, its already happened....

Not that its a bad thing.

Well, I am pretty obsessed too! Altough I haven't read all the books more than 5 times each.... I've read #1 like 2 times (spanish and english), #2 the same, #3 like 5 (4 in spanish), #4 im reading for the 3rd time (2 in spanish), #5 like 4 times (3 in english)... so I am pretty sure I am not really 'obsessed'!

I have like 10 links to HP related sites.... I have hundreds of pics on my files, write fanfics, had a special section on my website for fanart - and well, everytime I talked with 2 of my best friends, we end up naming harry potter related stuff in our conversations.

I even turned my friend into a Pumpkinpier coz I kept talking about them, so once she just said "u know what, u are right... i always pictured them together" - my other friend is a Good Shipper.....

To most my friends, yes - i am obsessed.... to some people around here, i am normal

Muahahaha I'm so obsessed with H/Hr! I'm always on the computer reading fics and looking at pics, its pretty bad for my eyes but the hell with it. I actually tried to read a R/Hr fic just 5 minutes ago just to try and see their point of view, well that didn't work out a read a little bit and was seriously considering writting a very angry letter to the author, but then decided to leave then alone in the dark, hm YA H/HR RULES!!!

On a scale of 1 - 10, I'd put myself at about a 7. Since I saw the light several months ago....

I check these forums every day and am a determined sailor on the HMS Pumpkin Pie! I truly hope we get more pumpkiny goodness in HBP! 46 more days? Oy!

Pyg

Hm...scale of 1-10, you say? I'd be a 45. That many days until HBP!

Yeah for the completely and utterly obsessed!
