92:A memory.

I went to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II at midnight with my now-girlfriend and her friend, and it was one of the best experiences of my life - I cosplayed as Hermione and there were so many other wonderful cosplayers. The reactions in the theater were glorious. When Ron and Hermione kissed, the cheering went on for two solid minutes, and half the people coming out of the theater at the end were sobbing. It really made me think about how much it all means to us, and how much I love it. Fandoms are wonderful like that.
