I hate, hate, hate post-"Voldemort-attacked-the-wizarding-community and has-now-erected-his-own-lunatic-realm-of-fear" fiction. Harry always ends up prisoner who, despite his initial 'misgivings', falls in love with his captor of choice (pick either Draco, Snape or Lucius here). Makes me want to hurl. Authors, can you say "Stockholm Syndrome"? Well, I can. No relationship starts out like that. Any given 'consent' under those circumstances is just a farce and a cover for rape.

Reading such a story makes me mad and plot scenarios in which Harry simply grabs a handgun and blasts them all away. Yeah, that's sick, too. But way more excusable.

... and don't forget the others in which he was always the big, bad sexy love god of the Slytherins and a veritable poster boy for how to smoke a fag in an extremely erotic way. <eg>

Want to. But so far, I'm horribly, horribly lazy. I haven't update the site in months, and right now, I'm sitting in front of my computer in my pyjamas and still haven't had that shower I wanted to have since getting up in the morning -- can you say 'little self-control'? Well, I can. <sigh> I think I need a good kick in the ass

Re:
KICKS YOU IN THE ASS!

:D

Well, you asked for it.

Mebbe you could return the favor. My 'lazyness' is more like insanity induced mania. The overwhelming need to give every guy an epic. SHould really learn to finish a story before starting a new one.

But Snape is so adorable...

*hugs Viccy*

Hey, I asked for it, didn't I? :-)

And I love your epics! I'm always so disappointed to find a good story only to learn that it... ends! after mere 40 KB! Epics are fine. Epics are glorious.

*kicks Viccy's ass*

C'mon, write more! *g*

And yeah, Snape is adorable. I'll admit I'd have never though that before seeing Alan Rickman on screen, but now... whooo! Dark, mysterious past, mistakes made, prickly character, closed-off hero... mjam. Want that.

Re:
Oh good gods! Epics??? //laughs hysterically// Would you believe my Snape/Harry fic is already 430 K and it doesn't even really have any slash in it yet?

I need help.

Heh. Didn't mean to kick you THAT hard. Hope I didn't bruise you. :P

*regards clearly visible bootprint on her behind*
*sighs*

Nope, wasn't that tragic. ;-)

Anyway, Viccy, you are simply cruel! How can you taunt me with 430 (!!!) KB of an unfinished HP/SS fic, and say it's not even remotedly close to being finished?! That...that...that's just unfair! *pouts*

You know, I wouldn't be completely adverse to reading it beforehand... *whistles innocently*

Have I already said that I envy you your muses? Epics, oh my...

Re:
Muses???

Tormentors, I'd say. I always try to wite simple, shortish fics, and BANG! I keep writing and writing and...

With this fic, I'm just afraid people will drop it after reading a hundred pages of plot and character stuff with no big sex scenes.

HAH! You said it! //dances happily// Want to guess if I'll nag you to read the darn thing as soon as I finish the next chapter?

//kicks the muses//

As long as it's TORmentors and not DEmentors... *giggle*

Drop a hot look or a short kiss here and there, or at least an even remotedly desiring thought, and I don't see any kind of problem. After all, this fandom is not very ripe with plot; mostly it's just concerned with either the past (mostly Snape's) or the development of the relationship. Hence, most stories don't get over the 100 KB threshold. So -- your story ought to be a delightful difference.

*guesses wildly*
*looks up triumphantly*
*also kicks Viccy's muses*

Can't wait to read it! :-)))

Re:
Heh.

Now the muses want to dress up like dementors. I look at them, think of them as the Nazgul, and want to slash them all together. SO there!

And HAH! My Snape is the canon one, so no hot kisses or lustful thoughts. Well... Actually no. Not even one. No one lusts after anyone. Yet.

It's pathetic. I wanted to give them hot sex and low angst, and what do I get? Angstorama with weirdness. A story of true love and not the cotton candy version of it.

//slams head on the wall// ouch. That hurts.

Nazgul-slash? Now I've heard everything. *eg*

No secret lusting? Too bad. :-(

Angst is good. True love is even better. So stop slamming your head against the wall, baby. :-)

So, off I am. Weekend at my parents.
