seananmcguire:camwyn:waffle-sorter:camwyn:graphicnerdity:It’s all Harry’s fault. Well, partially. I suppose Voldemort can be saddled with an equal portion of the blame. The point is, the Dursleys were just minding their own business when a horcrux was dumped on their doorstep. For the next decade it proceeded to warp their minds, turning them from your garden variety insufferable human beings into horrible, heartless monsters. The fact that they survived such prolonged horcrux exposure without delving into insanity or abandoning a helpless child only solidifies their place among the pantheon of noble and virtuous heroes in the Harry Potter universe.*Mic drop*That… actually does kind of explain an awful lot, dunnit.Mind, what we see of Vernon before the timeskip is not exactly a pleasant person. That said, wow.True; still, he didn’t strike me as the full-on Roald Dahl-esque monstrosity we saw when Harry was ten, just a standard variety self-absorbed jerk.That’s…huh.This makes WAY too much sense. -- source link
