This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I thought the problem with that was that the side effects and duration are a bit unpredictable, so you can't optimize use where you can be sure you're acting under Felix and going with the flow is optimal vs it having worn off but you're still giddy and reckless and going with the flow is fatal.

Though ocme or think of it I may have got that idea from a fanfic.

Oh I like that nerf! I think when it’s wearing off of Harry he just feels less and less lucky until he returns to normal. I only remember abuse leading to giddiness and recklessness. But that’s fun and appropriate!

Yeah, it was something like feeling less lucky and being less lucky not necessarily happening at the same time and if you think you're under Felix you'll roll with it because rolling with it is the best possible thing to do while the effect lasts. Until it doesn't. Doing things like you're under Felix when you actually aren't is basically the epitome of being reckless, depending on scenario.
