I don't believe it. I'm listed next to the utterly brilliant 'Mirror of Maybe', my all-time favourite [livejournal.com profile] somnisperus's 'Tea Series', the gut-wrenching [livejournal.com profile] wikdsushi's 'Civil War' verse, [livejournal.com profile] miraminx 'Lost Feeling' series (gosh, when I started reading Harry/Snape I gobbled up everything of hers), beside Jade whom I mostly know from the 'Boozefest', and [livejournal.com profile] cybelesan's mesmerizingly cathartic 'If You Are Prepared.'

I am completely. blown. away.

Primer to the Dark Arts
You are Primer to the Dark Arts, by Icarus!

You're a relatively new story, but you have a large
following. You can be found on pretty much any
archive, which has also helped your popularity.
However, you deserve your attention--Icarus's
writing is tight, and her characterizations are
solid.

Well, did you ever do the SnapexHarryML chats, way back (relatively) when Obscurus modded? The only new fics we had to talk about were yours and the Paradox of Existence. So, for a lot of "new" fans (*cough* me *cough*) you were the biggest story out when we started reading. Perhaps it's there in homage of that...

Or just maybe 'cause it's good. Can't forget that. ;)

Oh, is *that* why Obscurus kept sending people to me to beta read? I kept getting these emails begging me to beta, and people were treating me like I was Cassandra Claire or something... "If you would deign to read my lowly fic... Obscurus sent me to thy temple..." (okay, I'm exaggerating here). I'd read, and re-read, thinking WTF? And respond I'd be happy to beta, I'm nothing special just a Joe-blow fanfic writer no doubt your story's a hundred times better than anything I'd write please-let-go-of-the-hem-of-my-wizard-robes-I'm-not-wearing-anything-underneath-and-you're-pulling-them-off.

Wow. That explains it. I miss Obscurus frankly, and sorry she got blasted. Being a moderator is hard.

The Obscurus reference was just to give you a time frame...we all liked it. (All eight of us that chatted, anyway. :))

Yeah, I miss her too. We had fun Meyers-Briggs Personality Indicator discussions. (Remember those? I think we settled on Harry-INFP, Sev-INTP.) Ah, those were the days. lol.

Harry, INFP... that makes sense. *nods* That would have been back in February/March/April or so. Gosh. That seems so long ago.
