He's a no hero.
There's much doubt about it. He seems like every bit of a hero that a hero can be! Harry, I mean. Of course it's Harry, who else could it be? He's charming, handsome, so much like Lily and James, and has such a 'saving people thing'. Or so they think.
Of course, Harry plays the part quite well, always laughing and smiling, doing what everyone expects. But, they are so blind.
They want him to be a hero. They want to be able to look at someone and not fear anymore, because they're protected. The Wizarding World needs a hero. Too bad they picked the worst possible guy.
Oh, sure, on the outside, he's the perfect little Gryffindor, always doing what Dumbledore asks, being so, so brave. On the outside.
Because, on the inside, Harry James Potter is cruel, sarcastic, selfish, has a major inferiority and superiority complex. Yes, he has both. See, at the Dursleys, he felt inferior, and needed to prove himself. But, later, he decided that he was too good for them, and he stopped caring. So, he's the perfect Slytherin, don't you think?
And everybody knows that a Slytherin can't be a hero.
So, all I can tell you is, when you're in the battlefield, about to be killed, don't expect Harry to come out of nowhere and save you.
He's no hero.
Tired of people depicting Harry as perfect little savior. Angry that people don't get that his life at Dursley's wasn't great. And very, very bored.
Those are the components of this little story.
