What they mean:Hermione ended up with Ron,who i hate for reasons i blew severely out of proportion or made up,and i think so lowly of her that i believe she wants to be with someone smart rather than someone kind so i’m going to justify it by using abuse terms that i don’t even know the meaning of and say i’m progressive for shipping her with people who canonically want her dead because of her race(Draco,Pansy,Bellatrix,Voldemort/Tom Riddle,my blood purist essential-ocs)while making her black or adults while potraying her as a minor(Sirimione,Remione,Snamione)
What they SHOULD mean:Hermione’s character was completely destroyed in the film adaptions,which is sadly the version most people know of the series.Her flaws were all removed to make her into a sweet,gentle wonder woman who can do no wrong rather than the aggressive,spiteful,closed minded yet still kind hearted and justice driven girl she is.While many may say this is an improvement,it is in fact quite regressive.Raerly are female characters given the chance to be just as flawed and angry as their male counterparts without being an antagonist.The idea of a flawless woman often leads to the demonization of real women for not being soft 100% of the time.In addition,this causes the majority of the fandom to potray her as something she’s not for the sake of shipping-she is not anyone’s shoulder to cry on,an empath,emotionally mature or incredibly obssessed with the intellect of others,even if she does strongly appreciate it.The constant and long-running ruining of such a strongly feminist character is gross,stupid and straight-up evil
“Hold still, Daddy!” Hermione cooed as she attached yet another adhesive bow to Ron’s forehead, careful to avoid the mess of paper and ribbon lying atop his hair, while their fifteen-month-old daughter giggled on her lap.
“Daddy!” Rose squealed in agreement, swatting at his wrapping paper covered leg with a tiny fist.
“What does Daddy look like, Rosie? Does he look like a present?” Hermione encouraged. Rose had started to say words like “Mummy” and “Daddy” just before her first birthday, and ever since they’d been trying to get her to say as many as possible. Ron was determined she would be the cleverest in her year when she got to Hogwarts, just like her mummy. While Hermione might have scolded him for saying so, she still insisted they read Rose no less than three bedtime stories every evening.
“Yeah, Rosie, what do I look like?” Ron asked, pulling a silly face for his daughter’s sake. His heart felt fuller, somehow, when she giggled even louder.
“Blue!” she exclaimed, batting at the ribbon Hermione had stuck on his right forearm.
“That’s right, Rosie, the ribbon is blue!” Hermione gushed, planting a kiss on the top of Rose’s head.
My brother saved this document and everytime he gets angry at our neighbours for being loud he prints it to their wireless printer and you can hear the wife shout “Why the fuck would you print this AGAIN?!” to her son.

Harry getting hurt in one of his mission and waking up in St Mungus only to find Ron staring at him, worried.
“Ginny was here until now” he says. “She had to leave for lunch”
Harry’s brain focusing on the thought of Ginny crying over his body, unable do eat or sleep, completely in love with him, wondering if he would survive, while Ron was giving their blessing……..
when he frowns feeling absolutely silly. “what am I dreaming we’ve already had 3 babies”
