Oh, I like this one even better! its my new vote.... only properly formatted like so:[x] Give him a sandwhich and invite him into your room.
-->[x] Pretend to be a Bond Villain caught in the act just like in one of those movies Daddy likes to watch
--->[x] Tell him everything.
And what do we do here? We subtly undermine the argument Harry that we are stupid,Dudley easily deceiving Harry. And destroy his stereotype of Dudley and if all goes well no one gets hurt.Hey guys, wait. Isn't this a good opportunity to confront him? We could turn the tables on him.
Possibly. I just think that the most successful 'gamer' stories are the ones that use in-universe powers.
You can go outrageous and have them excel in wandless magic, or have an ability to turn on a dementor's aura or learn drain hp from a vampire. Those things exist, to a degree.
But if you give them the kamehameha and shadow clone jutsu, it just... Ruins things. Why not just have god itself step in and mess with whatever universe you feel like writing about today?
Wouldn't that naturally slot Harry into the position of James Bond and guarantee our ultimate failure? I don't see the appeal to emulating losers and I don't see why Dudley would either.Or, with our newfound intellect and self-control, we could rise above it and demonstrate our Utter Superiority...
...like a Bond Villain.
The problem as I see it, that Dudley in the canon is not very attractive character. Vindictus to do a great job of making Dudley less bad character, focusing on all the bad things about Harry. But Canon has gone off the rails, and I see no point in trying to live in the past.I don't see the appeal of most of these votes, bond villain one included, no matter how you try to spin it.
Harry's been through our stuff, he's confronting us, insulting us, and we're responding... By goofing off, confessing, and apparently trying to scare him?
No. Harry is right, you guys have killed Dudley and replaced him with a SV hivemind. There are a few of those quests out there, but this wasn't supposed to be one of them.
There's a difference between sticking to canon and sticking to character.The problem as I see it, that Dudley in the canon is not very attractive character. Vindictus to do a great job of making Dudley less bad character, focusing on all the bad things about Harry. But Canon has gone off the rails, and I see no point in trying to live in the past.
The way I see it, playing as a 'not very attractive character' is part of what makes this quest fun and unique. You're essentially telling me that you don't like Dudley, so this is no longer Dudley quest.The problem as I see it, that Dudley in the canon is not very attractive character. Vindictus to do a great job of making Dudley less bad character, focusing on all the bad things about Harry. But Canon has gone off the rails, and I see no point in trying to live in the past.
