I was browsing a consultant's FB page as a means to avoid: 1) completing on my nurse practitioner homework & 2) attaining a full night's sleep, when I came across a "Thank You for my Patronus Leggings" post. I stared at the shadowy doe leggings--which up until this point I had interpreted as designed for hunters (looked like deer on bullseyes to me on first go-round)--and thought, "How on earth are these Patronus leggings?"
My daughters and I have been working our way through the Harry Potter series. It's taken awhile, considering I also work a night shift in the ER--which interrupts our ideal family reading schedule at least a couple times per week. The journey has been wonderful, though. Two summers ago, right after we finished the first book, we took a family trip to Universal Studios and enjoyed Harry Potter land weeks before the Hogsmeade addition opened--with the intent to return the summer after we complete the series. After each book, we plan a HP-themed dinner party and watch the corresponding film. We are now about a quarter of the way through the final book--and very excited to see how things pan out.
Google got the better of me, and that nagging question regarding Snape's character was resolved about 194 pages prematurely. On the upside, the plot spoiler compelled me to immediately order a pair of what I now clearly see as adorable and sentimental Patronus leggings and to join the LLR team. What I felt in that moment was the creativity LLR offers everyone who loves it--and my mind has brimmed with ideas and untapped potential ever since.
In loving memory of Alan Rickman and his wonderful portrayal of Snape
And, might I add, I LOVE the idea of a dementor tunic. It captures the dark mystery of Snape and contrasts strikingly with both his true character and the fun spell/charm tank.
