Sue profiles #1

Some of you might remember that at one of the HP conventions, [livejournal.com profile] gmonkey42 and I put together a Snape and his Mary Sues presentation. In order to put the presentation together, we had to read a bunch of HP fanfics featuring Sues who were paired with Snape. The other night, I was scribbling notes on scrap paper, and realized that the paper in question was from a printout of the spreadsheet that we built to house the data. And then I started laughing at the quote, and I thought that we really should share the profiles because they're just too much fun not to. So here's the first. I'll try posting them every so often.

  • Name of Sue: Serina Torrington

  • Eye color: Twinkly sapphire blue eyes

  • Hair color: Black bouncy curly hair, shoulder length

  • Other: Soft, sultry voice

  • Curves in all the right places: "Shapely form"

  • Exchange student or DADA professor?: No

  • Outcast or beloved: Beloved, I think

  • Further education: Double major in Potions/Muggle Studies

  • Past relationships: Guy who was killed by DEs

  • House: Ravenclaw

  • Related to canon character: Lucius's favorite cousin

  • Unique magic ability: Receives unicorn-transferred energy, meant to kill LV. Ends up with super-powerful Legilimency. Sends special healing spell to Severus during a DE meeting. Can "send" telepathic messages to everyone she wants.

  • Wandless magic: Hells yes

  • Special pet: Forbidden Forest unicorn named Starlight shows up and speaks to her telepathically

  • Special possession: Rock that is imbued with Snape's lifeforce, and glows to let people know he's all right.

  • Moment of totally overblown temper?: Yes

  • Totally uncharacteristic Snape moments: Chapter one: Snape allows her to brew in his lab, and offers to imbibe first potion she makes.
    Chapter two: Snape apologizes for being gruff with her.
    Chapter three: She knows about the Shrieking Shack incident (even though she wasn't attending Hogwarts at the time, apparently) and insists that he face his demons.
    Chapter four: She caresses Lucius's locks.
    Chapter eleven: Snape proposes to her at Christmas.

  • Relationship with Snape: Yes

  • Sue House: sounds like a Sparklypoo

OMG yes. This makes so much sense. Because someone with an interest in Muggle Studies would totally be a favorite cousin of Lucius'. ::eyeroll::

Isn't that the way it always works? *snort* And he definitely would want to be groomed by her as well. *eyeroll*

I had one of those when I was little. It was called a mood ring. I live in hope that out there is a Sue with a t-shirt that magically changes colour when her body temperature changes too. :-)

Why are unicorns always called things like Starlight? Why not Derek?

hahaa! We used to have those shirts in the early nineties. They were called Hypercolor or something like that.

*giggle*

Yup, those were Hypercolor shirts.

Great Sue-ness.

I remember them vividly. A friend wore one for AGES, until it could no longer change color, lol!

I'm getting My Little Pony x-over vibes here, but probs that's just me.

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
hahaha! Yes! I never even thought of it, but it really makes sense.

LOL

Now I've spilled tea all over my keyboard - but it was so worth it.

You know what really cracked me up? The telepathetic telepathic unicorn.

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
hahaha! So glad you enjoyed it. And this was one of the tame ones. SERIOUSLY.

telepathetic! rofl!! omg. Awesome.

Is this from an actual fic?
*mind boggles*

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
Absolutely! I don't know if I even have the link any longer, but it was an honest-to-goodness fic.

And this was one of the least awful ones! seriously!
ext_14568: Lisa just seems like a perfectly nice, educated, middle class woman...who writes homoerotic fanfiction about wizards (KKM - Gwendal - Oy)

*DIES*

I...really hope this was written by someone very young.

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Y'know, I don't remember any longer--this was nearly two years ago at this point! And I don't think I have the link. But yeah, I'm sure it was a younger writer.

I remember that talk.

LARFED MY GUTS UP.

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
hee!!!!!!!! I'm so glad you liked it. ;)

[identity profile] vampireanneke.livejournal.com 2010-03-21 10:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, post more of these. Wow, this is worse then the Mary Sue I came up with for my BJD Mary Sue.

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 12:54 am (UTC)(link)
This was one of the tamest. Seriously. I can't wait to share the others.

[identity profile] tjs-whatnot.livejournal.com 2010-03-22 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)
hahaha!

I ♥'d that presentation!

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-03-23 12:43 am (UTC)(link)
Aw, thank you so much!! I was just looking at the artwork [livejournal.com profile] gmonkey42 made, and it's so hysterical. Seriously. She's such a genius!

[identity profile] mariannelee.livejournal.com 2010-03-26 06:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Please tell me that Phoenix is not mixed in there. Although she deserves to be...

[identity profile] valis2.livejournal.com 2010-04-01 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, no, of course not! :) Wait till you see the rest, though. They're incredible.
