Nineteen years later...

The date of the epilogue at the end of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was last Friday. (I actually discovered/realized this a few days ago, but I kept forgetting to mention it.)
So li'l Albus Severus will be finishing his first week of Hogwarts today.

Doesn't matter if the fandom things it canon or not, JK says it is and signed off on it.

Ah, you're on the "Word of God" side of the "Word of God"/"Death of the Author" divide...

I think it's her universe and she just let's rest of us play in her sand box. I haven't read cursed child and everyone I've heard says it's not a great read and reads like mediocre fanfiction. So I get why the fandom is upset.
If I remember correctly, she didn't write it so it's basically published fanfictipn.

It was nineteen years ago today
Albus Severus went to school to stay
He'd been worrying 'bout the House he'd get
When on his head the Sorting Hat was set
So may I now present to you
The after-epilogue that you all want:
Albus Severus Potter's sorting's done!
Meh. Needs a better choice for the last three syllables.
