A Confession
I have a burning desire to see Severus Snape knocked up. Yes, yes. I know that mpreg is second only to Mary Sue on the list of fanfic sins, but I tend to like them when they are done well. It my not happen a large percentage of the time, but they CAN be done well. Really. I mean it. Really!
This is of course assuming the author comes up with a good enough explanation that I am able to suspend disbelief. This is where HP fandom has the advantage. "Magic" is just such a better explanation than "Ancient aliens decide to leave baby making machines randomly lying around" (*cough* SGA *cough*).
Snape himself though is the real selling point. He is just such an interesting and grey character. He's usually controlled, but can fly into rages. He's intelligent. His has a tongue that can flay your skin off. His motives, while they may stray to good, are by no means pure. He lies so well it approaches fooling all of the people all of the time. I just want to see how he reacts to the the situation. And if I also get to see him in mother bear mode, it's a bonus.
