    Harry is a trust fund baby who discovers he’s racially superior to normal people, becomes a sports-loving jock, inherits a slave, and works hard in school to accomplish his goal of becoming a cop.

    Harry Potter, a boy who, despite inheriting a fortune through tragedy, chose humility, valued hard work, cherished friendship and love, played Quidditch for the sheer joy, befriended—more than owned—a house-elf, and became an auror to protect, not to exert power.

        The paragraph after Harry finds out he has inherited Kreacher:

        “I don’t want him.”

        The next page:

        ”the idea of owning him…was repugnant.”

        Did Harry technically maintain legal ownership of a slave to prevent mass murder? Yes.

        While we don’t know, fellow readers headcanon that Harry eventually freed Kreature once he was able without the gravest consequences for both house elves and the rest of the wizarding and non-magical world.

            Are you saying you’d immediately set Kreacher free in the face of Dumbledore telling you not to? Kreacher’s freedom was more important than the world’s?

            Is the decision simple for you?

            Centaur rape is fascinating headcanon of your own! Hadn’t crossed my mind.

                Might you find it personally rewarding to be transparent about the difficulties you would have faced just like Harry?

                Yes, Cap’n Contrarian, the torturer & would-be murderer Umbridge should have had her wellbeing better considered by the child who momentarily imitated a My Little Pony soundboard. It was unkind, even cruel, & vindictive. You’ve got the elves’ rights champion by her bushy hair on that one!

                    Do you wish the Harry Potter series had never been written?
