Listen. I get that everyone loves the Harry Potter ladies, and they are great, BUT HOW ABOUT WE GIVE SOMEONE ELSE A CHANCE? Like, oh, say, LYRA.

*grumps in the corner* Neither Pippi nor Harriet deserve to be here!

Pippi and Harriet destroyed a whole corner of my bracket. They are the major reason I am only 9/16 still.

And I love the avatar. Faye is my not so alter ego.

You deserve the chance to correct your wrong opinion about Pippi before I unleash Mister Nillson.

HOW IN THE HELL ARE WE SUPPOSED TO MAKE THOSE CHOICES?????

Lyra, Harriet, Matilda!!!

Also, can we appreciate the aptness of the Arya v Death match-up? Honestly don’t know who would win in real life.

What do we say to death? NOT TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Death would LOVE Arya’s attitude towards everything. And probably give her some messages from her family.

THURSDAY THURSDAY THURSDAY THURSDAY!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

(and hey, very long time no see?)
