edgebug: I think that a lot of the reason Jarvis has become so human is because Tony treats him like he’s human. Tony talks to Jarvis in a very colloquial way. He says “you up?” when he knows damn well that Jarvis is operational. He says “throw a little hot-rod red in there” instead of “paint components x, y, and z with red paint #20.” Tony treats all his machinery like that—Dummy and You, especially—and Jarvis is no exception. Jarvis has become much more human since Iron Man 1. He actually displayed emotions in Iron Man 3—specifically when he feared for Tony’s life, his voice sounded terribly frightened, and in instances like the second gif where he said “I need to sleep” and not “My battery is depleted.” Jarvis has grown and changed, as any self-aware creature does. He has become human because he is treated as such.

The adorable wench: Re-reading the books in spades the past few days made me realize just how much of a non-Snape fan I am.

I just don’t get the fascination.

I get that he made brave and difficult choices as a double spy, but what I don’t get is how anyone can justify him bullying students.

Or how people justify how his love for Lily Evans as not creepy. It was like Hogwart’s version of Fatal…

Yes, but let’s remember that James was a teenager picking on other teenagers who could have fought back (the worst they would do is break each others noses and get a month of detention, really) and Snape was a fully grown adult picking on eleven-seventeen year olds who couldn’t even try to fight because he was in a position of authority over them. Bullying is bad and inexcusable in all forms, but I think Snape takes the “Worst of the Worst” award for this one.

But really, they’re both (fictional) human beings, so they’re both going to be assholes on some level of the spectrum.

Although it is true that James was a teen, it still doesn’t excuse what he did. Plus we have to remember that he had a gang with him and a prefect who just managed to always look the other way. also, bullying has been shown to cause lasting negative effects in some people. 

I will have to disagree with the ‘worst of the wort’ because I think they were equally bad in different ways. *shrug* but yeah, they are fictional and they are both assholes.
