#quirrellmort

"I'm gay!" "I'm straight!" Okay well I'm as happy as a squirrel? Long as I'm with Mr. Quirrell? We'll lead him to the slaughter and we'll murder Harry Potter? We're different? Different? Different, different? As can be?

Now, can anyone tell me what foreshadowing is? Foreshadowing is a dramatic device in which an important plot point is mentioned earlier in the story to return later in a more significant way.

do y’all ever think about the implications of quirrellmort not seeing each other’s faces for the entire year they were getting to know each other and falling in love, & then finally getting to look at each other and the first thing they want to do is dance together, only for that moment to be cut short by betrayal and heartbreak? because i do

You know, I get that not all Starkid fans have chosen to make the leap over to join the Tin Can fam as well. A lot of the newer Hatchetfield fans in particular are just here for that one particular tiny town in Michigan. And that's fine! Like what you like! Fandom how you want! Still, I would like to say two things:

1) Now is the perfect time to give all the awesome stuff TCB has to offer a chance, and

2) Starkid, and therefore our beloved Hatchetfield, owe so much specially and specifically to Joey, Corey, AND Brian.

Obviously Joey is one of the main Faces of Hatchetfield and his performances as Ted, Wilbur, Pete, Ethan, and Dan are all so iconic and beloved. Seriously, can you imagine Ted being as watchable in the hands of someone else? He’s also done great work in so many other Starkid projects.

Meanwhile Corey has been so vital behind the scenes. He designed the iconic sets for TGWDLM and Black Friday (the mind-blowing moment when the set BECOMES Wiggly? That was HIM)! Over the years this man has designed most of the sets, he has directed (VHSCC! ❤️), he has assistant directed, he has overseen social media and massive kickstarters, he has produced. As one of Starkid’s main behind-the-scenes creatives, Corey has done a huge amount of the extremely vital but not particularly fun or flashy work. His job is traditionally a pretty thankless one and we should pour gratitude in his direction.

And Brian. He gave us the Award-winning sound design for TGWDLM, but also I personally think he is one of the main actors responsible for Starkid existing the way it does. This whole company and fandom all go back to AVPM, that lightning-in-a-bottle show that was so strangely magnetic we’ve been able to build everything else on top of it. I’ve seen a lot of Potter parodies over the years, and I genuinely believe that the number one factor that gave AVPM its unparalleled magic was the Voldemort and Quirrell storyline. Without Quirrellmort, I’m not sure AVPM would have taken off as it did, and it’s quite likely Starkid would never have existed. And Brian, as Quirrel, was essential to pulling off and selling that extraordinary bit of plot.

So, yeah, even if you’re only a Starkid fan, or even just a Hatchetfield fan, you’ve benefitted massively from the tireless work Joey, Corey, and Brian have put into those things we love. If you can, giving even 3 or 4 bucks to their Tinlightenment kickstarter would be a lovely way to say “thanks” for bringing us fifteen years of Starkid magic and especially that Tiny Town of Hatchetfield.

TLDR; The Tin Can Bros have all specially and specifically contributed to the existence of Hatchetfield and Starkid as a company, and, if you can, giving to their kickstarter is a great way for Starkid fans, even those who don’t follow TCB, to say thanks!😊

Theory as to why Harry couldn’t see thestrals after killing Quirrell

So, I have been questioning for a while now why it is that Harry could only see thestrals after Cedric’s death and not Quirrells. However, I have a theory after rereading the Philosophers Stone.

We know in order to see thestrals you have to see someone die, that is set in stone. The reason why Harry couldn’t see them is because he didn’t actually see Quirrell die.

In the book as he was fighting Quirrell he couldn’t see due to the extreme pain in his forehead not allowing him to. He was also quickly losing consciousness during the encounter.

We also were never told if Quirrell even died when Harry was conscious. Dumbledore says to Harry that Voldemort had left Quirrell to die and Dumbledore had to pull Quirrell off of Harry meaning he was very much alive while he was awake, meaning he died after Harry passed out.

It is probable that Quirrell died shortly after due to the injuries he sustained from Harry touching him since it’s confirmed he did die. However, it all happened after Harry passed out, so thus, Harry didn’t actually see Quirrell die which means no thestrals.

Harry jumped to his feet, caught Quirrell by the arm, and hung off — the pain in Harry’s head was building — he couldn’t see — he could only hear Quirrell’s terrible shrieks and Voldemort’s yells of, “KILL HIM! KILL HIM!” and other voices, maybe in Harry’s own head, crying, “Harry! Harry!”

He felt Quirrell’s arm wrenched from his grasp, knew all was lost, and feel into blackness, down… down… down…

[thatscrooge]

Now's your chance to find a new path. Maybe you're not supposed to live your life consumed by darkness. But that's all I know. Well it's time to go out there and learn something new. Something you can't learn in a classroom. Tom, it's time to go home.

[yuttikkele]

finally finished watching a very potter musical for the first time.

I was expecting Draco to act like a gay little boy, I was expecting Dumbledore to be a nuisance in the ways we know him best, I was expecting Hermoine to get clowned on

but as I’m sure hundreds if not thousands of people have already experienced and said, I was never expecting, anticipating, or even imagining that I would witness the heartfelt love story of QUIRINUS QUIRRELL and TOM MARVOLO “VOLDEMORT” RIDDLE. I never would have guessed even a SPRINKLE of that would be present. With all has been talked about of this musical, someone forgot to inform me that THERE IS A QUIRRELLMORT SUBPLOT.
