i'm still waiting for someone to write a really good snape/harry fic. i want to be really convinced. i want to sink into the world, and totally buy it, and be satisfied with it after i'm done reading, not going, 'well, it's lovely, but it's a big departure from canon, innit,' or 'the tone's just so.' or 'if only harry were a little more ___.' there's an excellent point to be made about the canon improbability of the pairing. well, at least, there're all these obstacles in the way. but people keep coming so close! it's a genre with such potential! unfortunately, a good one is rather a lot to ask. i'm not even quite sure what one'd have to do to convince me. but i want it, yes, precious, very much.

fred saberhagen, how i <3 thee. he'd better not die without writing another dracula novel. ::rubs temples:: ::refuses to slash saberhagen and zelazny::
