AD-SS time again!

[snapes_nightie]

Back again with this Snape/Dumbledore thing! I have been thinking about some titles so I thought I’d share them and see what people thought. Feel free to use the word ‘pathetic’ in your comments if necessary. I'm just brainstorming!
1) “Crushed.”
2) “New Tricks.”
3) “Severus, please.” (Used widely as a title for all sorts of things, but still a goodie

So right! It's always so reassuring to hear from you! I recently got some rather bourgeouis disapproving comments about the SS-LM fic I wrote where Severus is 11 and Lucius is 15. I just wanted to scream - Hogwarts is a BRITISH BOARDING SCHOOL! It's TRADITION! These things happen ALL THE TIME! Ask any upper class chap and they'll tell you it's character-building! The RAF, MI5 and the empire on which the sun never set was built by men who knew all about that kind of thing. Tsk. Everyone needs to read Stephen Fry's "The Liar".

Heh heh. Oh dear, now I'm going to get yelled at by Guardian readers for mentioning the empire. (Disclaimer: I know the British Empire was a tool of repression, persecution and horror, responsible for some of the greatest crimes against humanity and the invention of the concentration camp etc. I am being flippant.)

Oops. Excuse me, I appear to have had a rant. It's not my fault I'm slightly unhinged from all that femmeslash and inappropriate teacher-student relations at my boarding school...

(PS Thanks for the review! xxx)

Damn right everyone needs to read Stephen Fry, and definitely The Liar! I agree with you totally on all those points. Things were better when the country was run by men who all got buggered in public school by each other. Stiff upper lips, chaps!

Bah. Guardian readers. What do they know? Give me a Torygraph anyday...

(PS. My pleasure!)

I didn't intend to be so 'old school' there. Some things have got much better over the years. I agree wholeheartedly that reading 'Liar' should be compulsory. Not 'The Hippopotamus' though. That's just icky (sorry Stephen).

I'll be controversial and say the Telegraph is just as bad (and my parents read it, so, argh), The Indy is the wettest thing ever and I don't trust anything from the Murdoch stables - in fact, the only publication I don't scorn outright is Private Eye! Suspicious and cynical? Moi?

PS That icon is the best I've ever seen! x

*uses icon again gratuitously* Thank you!

My housemate reads the Torygraph because he's a big Tory. We still have the 'the End of New Labour' frontpage stuck up in our front room. Private Eye is awesome. I tend to get my news from the Metro when I get up early enough (shame, I know) or BBC Radio 4 (now THAT's upmarket).

Ah, Elgar. I'm so disappointed they took him off the £20 note ... and in his 150th year too!

And Dickens off the tenners! I use to like those, with the background showing the cricket match between Dingly Dell and Muggleton from Pickwick Papers. Hang on - *Muggle*ton?
