harry potter and the trying to come up with a title for this trans!dudley fic



Going through the Harry Potter book names and realizing I didn't remember the name of the 5th book, going through my head like "what's the main quest in in that book" and what's the storyline, what is the main force of the plot, what's the macguffin so I post this just to see how long it takes for me to remember...

harry potter and the dystopian ministry
harry potter and the torturous detentions
harry potter and the banality of evil
harry potter and CAPSLOCK
harry potter and i think this is the book where sirius dies
harry potter and the something something something
harry potter and lots of stigma
harry potter and the major theme change of the books
harry potter and i literally do not remember the overarching plot of this book
harry potter and the four books that needed heavy editing
harry potter and no honestly I truly do not remember what this book is called or about
harry potter and the goblet of filler
harry potter and the need for a secondary villain because the quest to defeat voldemort can't fill seven books at this rate
harry potter and scope creep
harry potter and i truly cannot remember what this book is about
harry potter and trying to think of what the book acronym is... is there any chance this is harry potter and the order of the phoenix??? yes, that's my final answer, hello google, please provide

yes! I eventually remembered!

yes, this did honestly take me 20ish minutes to recall.

This is overwhelmingly not my fault. What does the order of the phoenix actually have to do with this book other than the begining and end of it?

Slightly more than the Deathly Hallows have to do with the final book, which are even more McGuffin-ish. Except for it giving rise to some interesting stories where Harry is the Master of Death.

700 pages of filler BUT it also gave me the first hearty laugh of the morning, since without its obvious flaws (or existence) you wouldn’t have fumbled so magnificently for the title, any title really, so: purpose fulfilled!

I'm inclined to think that 'Harry Potter and CAPSLOCK' was a better title anyway.

Just dropping by to say: I haven't even read the books, but was highly amused reading your post! XD

I will forever remember the fifth book as "Harry Potter and the Big Blue Brick," given its size and (US) cover design. "Harry Potter and the CAPSLOCK" is also valid, however, as is "Harry Potter Unedited." :D
