Snape Manor

[icarus]

Woah. I've just spent the last [insert ridiculous number because I lost count] of hours talking to cordelia_v about Snape Manor. She now knows the entire plot as it stands now, and why I've been struggling with it.

Do I want to write this story? Even after two years it continues to haunt me.

Am I the last person to read In Between Days by atrata? Because if I'm not and you haven't, you must read this, as it's the finest, most uncompromisingly relentless characterisation of Snape I've ever read. Snape/Harry, NC-17.

For the time being, I'm off to write Percy/Snape. Or perhaps Jack/Daniel, I'm not sure which, but I'm writing something today.

Transparent, yet effective!

That's usually one of my most effective strategies, in terms of bending authors and readers to my will, in fact.

You'll like that essay on fanfic reviewing and sex, when I get to it.

And repetition works with... me... too.... *pauses as the imagery gets more and more sexual*

I think I'd better stop while I'm behind.

Oh, I think you missed the discussion on my lj last week, when a passing comment caused this essay topic to spring into my mind, almost full-blown. I spent the rest of the day crossing my legs, and refusing to write it.

The parallels between fanfic reviewing and seduction/sex are very erotic, so much so that the main argument against writing the essay at all would be that it would make every person I've ever reviewed blush, and then re-evaluate our online relationship.

Even more reason to write it, as the power to make someone blush is absolutely intoxicating.

And they do blush prettily, don't they?

Mmmmm. But the challenge would be to see if I could make you blush, sugar.

You can try.

And the gauntlet is thrown.
