Jim was telling me about this thing where all these Snape fangirls started seeing Snape in their dreams or something, and started forming some sort of cult about it. Or something. I'm sure he tells it better than I do. The whole thing's on fandom_wank, which I don't read a whole lot because everyone talks like the Smurfs over there, and I have ( Read more... )

That's quite a franchise empire for a series I haven't heard of. I do like stories about aliens discovering Earth customs. Airi Masaki seems quite fierce, because that was some serious slappage.
