Harry Potter Article: Bellatrix X Voldemort WON'T work out

Bellatrix is so gorgeous, but Voldemort is so ugly :/

Hey! I'm back to writing after a small break. This time, I'm focusing on fandom shipping.

So the half of the articles that I wrote in this club are about shipping. I ship Hermione and Harry, like Hermione and Ron a bit, and find Ginny bad about relationships. I also remember I wrote about Albus X Minerva, and I said they won't work out. Okay, if you have noticed this is all about the hero shipping. What about the villains? They can have a love life too. If you know me, you know I mostly hate villains. But people ship Bella and Voldemort together so much, that I had to share my opinion on it.

So I don't wanna rush this, but I don't think they will work out. I dislike the relationship, cause even though Voldemort seems liking Bellatrix, he only uses her just like he does to his other servants because Bellatrix is a powerful witch. (Mostly about shouting crucio, though lol.)

Plus, Bella is already married. Her original surname is Black, but then she marries someone with the surname 'Lestrange' and becomes Bellatrix Lestrange. Even heroes cheat, so Bellatrix could cheat. But with their 'lord'? No, I don't think so.

A love life is nice for every villain, every death-eater should have a point where they become softer people. Narcissa and Lucius have their son, Draco, Bellatrix has her husband, Peter Pettigrew literally died because of the moment he thought about Harry saving him...

Yes, and this made the plot thicker and nice, but Voldemort was clearly shown to be careless about anyone or anything, and love would ruin his personality. As much as I don't like his personality, I have to admit that without him, the books or movies aren't just interesting.

Like imagine Voldemort crying because Bellatrix died. Imagine him being sad. I cannot.

Love isn't for Voldemort, its his enemy. Voldemort couldn't defeat Harry because of Lily's love for his son, and plus, a quote is that:

"The people that cannot love, are the people who never received love."

This fits Voldemort perfectly, as he never received love from his father, because Tom's relationship with Merope was fake. It was based on love potions.

Bye bye <3

LowriLorenza89 Good arguments against the Bellatrix/Voldemort ship. I don't ship them myself, but I don't think that those who do ship it see it as a romantic or loving relationship, really, at least not on Voldemort's side. I think it's more about physical attraction and maybe "rewarding" Bellatrix for her loyal servitude. Didn't Voldemort react to Bellatrix's death? He didn't cry, true, but I think he shouted out or something. Maybe just in the book and not in the film? He also does comment on her loyalty, calling her his most loyal servant and generally trusting her more than any other Death Eater. Another reason I'd have against shipping them is that JKR has stated that she chose Molly Weasley to kill Bellatrix because she wanted to compare Bellatrix's obsessive loyalty/love for Voldemort with Molly's love for her children. To me, it feels a bit weird comparing maternal love with a romantic or sexual pairing.

elsafan1010 I don’t remember Voldemort shouting out in the books, honestly he was a bit stressed about losing his death eaters but anyway, that didn’t stop him to try to end it all till his last scene.

LowriLorenza89 I can definitely remember that he does react, whether it's shouting out or freezing for a moment or something else I'm not sure. I think half of it was just shock though. Bellatrix was one of his best Death Eaters and he wouldn't have really expected her to be defeated. He also tries to kill Molly afterwards but she (and everyone else) is by then shielded by Harry's sacrifice.
