Someone pls explain to me …

sig146… what’s the point of Twilight* fanfic without vampires?

*Please note, while I’m not wild about Twilight, I’ve had it with the all the bashing, so I will delete any and all comments that diss the series or the movie.

I simply don’t understand that phenomenon. Isnt’ the supernatural element that which makes the series different, exciting, entertaining? I mean seriously, if you take away the vampires and the werewolves what is LEFT?

Two completely ordinary teenagers falling in love.

(Wait, didn’t someone write that story already?)

It’s like HP without magic, wizards and witches. Or as my husband summed it up: like The Godfather without MAFIA.

I’m honestly and completely confounded and confused by the very concept.

But of course now I absolutely have to think about HP without magic, without witches, without wizards, without Muggles.

… Voldemort would be a drug dealer getting out of prison.

Snape is a chemistry teacher at an American High School and in the witness protection programme after his contribution to Mr. DeMort’s erstwhile prison-sentence.

Mr. Albus Dumbledore is either the prinicpal of the school or maybe even better, in charge of the special investigation against Mr. DeMort.

Mr. Lucius Malfoy is a rich Republican and religious fundamentalist trying to get books that contain references to Darwin, the evolution and homosexuality removed from the school’s library.

Hermione Granger as the chairwoman of the school’s Amnesty International group. Lavender Brown as cheerleader. Ron Weasley as what? Baseball champion?

And Harry’s the son of one of Mr. DeMort’s victims.

Oh. My. God.

I think the heat is getting to me.

A lunch to die for …

… as in, I’m pretty sure that various cultures of this beautiful world would love to burn me at the stake for what I just ate. *evil*

  • a small Indian Naan bread, toasted
  • slathered with low-fat cream cheese “Philadelphia Yoghurt”
  • covered with lox
  • slathered with Franconian horseradish-cream (think Wasabi, only cream-coloured)
  • heaped with roe of the Cyclopterus lumpus
  • with copious amounts of Gari on the side

… I iz in your foodz, appropriatin’ ur cuizine.

And if you feel the need to unfriend me now, I totally understand. *crazy*

While I scored 8 stars (the maximum, go me!) for posting at least 4 chapters and leaving more than 140 reviews during the month, Gryffindor is still losing spectacularly. *sigh*

The really bad thing is that I have to admit that this scenario is fairly realistic (without Quidditch, and thank goodness that in this game idiot!Gryffindors can’t lose points or get detention…): Gryffindors don’t have the talent for strategy that Slytherins have, nor are they as dogged in the pursuit of their goals as Hufflepuffs, and last but not least they are most certainly not as smart and studious as Ravenclaws.

But still, this stings. Gryffindor!Fail. *sobs*

Now, if I were allowed to comment on my own story. Or if my replies to comments were counted, too…

Some offline life stuff and BoD spoilery ramblings under the cut.

BWHAHAHA!

“Folks say that if you listen real close at the height of the full moon, when the wind is blowin’ off Nantucket Sound from the nor’ east and the dogs are howlin’ for no earthly reason, you can hear the awful screams of the crew of the “Ellie May,” a sturdy whaler Captained by John McTavish; for it was on just such a night when the rum was flowin’ and, Davey Jones be damned, big John brought his men on deck for the first of several screaming contests.”

—David McKenzie

In other words, the “Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest 2009 Results” have been announced.

In terms of fanfic, I’ve managed to secure 324 points towards the OWL House Cup 2009. But the rest of my House are being lazy slackers so Gryffindor is totally losing this year and by a wide margin, too. It is also quite obvious to me that people have discovered that “Apprentice” is a great way of earning very many points. Not that I mind. *smug*

Concerning BoD, I’ve decided that I must re-read Beedle. Maybe that will give me an idea concerning Augusta Longbottom and summer solstice 2003.

Back to work now.

Monday.

25What I like best about my Twittascope is that they tell me that I’m Scorpio. Everyone else tells me I’m libra. Which I’m really not. Like, no way not.

My Twittascope: Scorpio Although this might be your day to return to work, it also offers you a bit of solace that may have previously been elusive. You might have a feeling of isolation, even in the midst of others. Fortunately, your current aloneness can be reassuring, for it offers you space to think about an unresolved issue without having to report every thought back to someone else. Enjoy the solitude while you can, for it won’t last very long. Monday, June 29, 2009

Huh, work?

… oh. Work.

*sigh*

Have a bit of cuteness to get started this week: The Itty Bitty Kitty Committee.

That is all for now.

Pervy!Fan Fic Fancier

sig122

As per Mia’s suggestion, I’ve nominated myself as “Pervert of the Week” over at the [lj comm]hp_perv_awards. Cheers and whistles welcome.

In other news, I have some serious plotting to do. Somehow BoD has decided that the first climax of the story will take place within the next four weeks of story-time. (Note: in the story it’s May 18, 2003 at the moment, and the weeks until midsummer on June 24 will be absolutely effing CRAZY.)
