The things I've found
Dec. 19th, 2005 04:52 pmI've been working my way through search engines, plugging in phrases about Severus and hurt/comfort, in order to find more fics.
So far my mind has boggled more than once.
What is going on with Firefox? This is really getting to me. It won't let me cut and paste text, it cuts and pastes as a link, with all relevant HTML coding. Nice, but I want to paste the text! Strange. And irritating.
So far my mind has boggled more than once.
- Snape is pregnant with triplets. The fathers are Harry, Sirius, and Remus.
- Snape is having an affair with Orophin and a completely mental Rumil. No, wait. He's in a relationship with Haldir. Oh, who cares. I thought it was crack!fic but to my greater horror it is not.
- A Marauders fic where James becomes waaaaaaay too involved in Severus. Severus, in fact, becomes a girl. Well, not really. But he might just as well.
- Sneezefic archive. One is called Aconite and Pudding, which made me snort. It's not bad, actually.
- Overanalyzing the Text: Hurt/comfort thoughts. Interesting, too.
- More Overanalyzing the Text. Including "Why D/HR is Possible" by tripzy. I'm very sorry, Tripzy (if that is your real name). You have little chance of convincing me.
- Well written but ultimately Sue-centric chapter of a random fic. I am glad to read things like this. It goes to remind me about how the character of Severus can so easily get distorted by the pull of wish-fulfillment.
- The Seven Deadly Fanons of Characterization: a Spotter's Guide by Dorothy Marley. It's slash-centric, and thought-provoking.
- Fic where Severus dresses as Alice Cooper.
- Severus Snape de-aged stories: Here you can find some stories where our belived Poiton Master, Severus Snape was deaged by one way or other (spell, poiton). Belived! hahaha
- Interesting commentary from 2003 about GoF. My favorite line: I am really hoping that the order of the Phoenix is a Nicholson Baker-style masterpiece of minutiae which takes 800 pages to describe the act of Harry ordering two pints of Phoenix Butterbeer at the Pointy Hat
- A fanlisting archive. I never understand fanlistings. Is it a show of support for a specific character? A way to list fen so that the outside world can mock them with the click of a button?

Haven't had the cut/paste problem though...yet.
I knew I shouldn't have upgraded.

Date: 2005-12-19 10:11 pm (UTC)The author is entirely too unimaginative. The norse god, Heimdall, had nine mothers. Go figure as you guys across the pond might say.
Snape is having an affair with Orophin and a completely mental Rumil. No, wait. He's in a relationship with Haldir. Oh, who cares.
Certainly not this reader. next!
Severus Snape de-aged stories: Here you can find some stories where our belived Poiton Master, Severus Snape was deaged by one way or other (spell, poiton).

Perhaps we can perk him up. I'll bring him some rat livers...you bring the shredded boomslang skin.
I just had to share these links. They were too insane to pass up.

Date: 2005-12-20 02:00 am (UTC)Okay, I actually tried reading this one. It read like a really bad doujinshi. But unfortunately, I think it qualifies for your list.
(BTW, I've noticed that doujinshi are all about the James/Snape and the feminized, sexually exploited Snape. This is very curious to me; James/Snape is super rare in Western fanfic.)

Date: 2005-12-20 02:17 am (UTC)The few I've seen have Lucius/Snape and feminized, sexually exploited Snape. It is rather interesting, isn't it?
I love how as soon as the Marauders realize that Snape is "the Toy" they suddenly rescue him and treat him completely differently than before. He was an object of hate and scorn, and then he is immediately an object of suffering and pain and needs to be protected.
Yeah, I've seen so very, very few James/Snape fics.

Date: 2005-12-20 02:23 am (UTC)I know. "You suck! ... Wait, the other kids are raping you? Here, come sleep in my bed and let's kiss!" It's like the characters all get possessed by the spirits of sexual hurt/comfort fic...

Date: 2005-12-20 02:26 am (UTC)And I love how Sirius is beating Severus up until James tells him, no, wait, he's the Toy!

Date: 2005-12-20 06:00 am (UTC)The Sneezefic Archive is just--weird. Harmless, but weird.
Tripzy is the batshit insane fan who wrote a letter to JK Rowling explaining why she was teh ebil for not writing Hermione/Draco.
And that you've read all these things just goes to show you're a far braver and more dedicated fan than I am...

Date: 2005-12-20 11:16 am (UTC)Heh...they'd have to call Severus the "greasy cat" instead of "bat".
And I am quite single-minded in my pursuit of h/c. ;)
