Hey, I reviewed this story a while ago, I was wondering when someone would report her. I mean just look at her other stories, she always has a Mary Sue in them and its always called Kathryn like herself.
She even had a X-Men: Evolution fanfic online but took it down when I pointed out all her errors, like how to write Cerebro (she spelled it Cybro). And of course there was going to be a new mutant by the name of, yes you guessed it, Kathryn.

That's not so bad. The translators of Uncanny X-men in my country kept spelling it "Cebero" (which I would try and pronounce as keah-beh-rough) for a decade, for absolutely no reason. I honestly thought that it was just me reading it wrong, but apparently not.

This has to be the most sadpathetic attempt at writing I have ever had the sense to read.

1) Her Author's Notes are just so VAPID I could toss books right through her head.

2) "Potions brewing of intermediate wizards by Mary-gold honey"
'Mary-gold honey'. If you know you're uncreative, and you can't come up with your own original name, then don't.

3) "This is me going bye bye. *Turns around and walks into a wall* "Ouch, look at all the little snitches mommy"
I cannot emphasize the sheer VAPIDITY (I don't care if that's even a word, I'm using it) of this Author's Note. Who says, 'This is me going bye bye' in the first place?!

4) VOTES. That's all I can manage to stutter. VOTES.

Black 'kakis' and a turtleneck sweater? Since when did Harry dress Goth-lite?

And short black denim skirt and silver halter top? Why do so many Mary-Sues seem to delight in looking like hookers?

...Aside from that khaki is a color, so wouldn't khakis therefore have to be khaki? Wouldn't it be black trousers or pants or something, as opposed to "kakis"?

P.S. I like halter tops, actually. Just not the kind people normally think of; I prefer the ones where they come all the way up to the neck in a decidedly less hookerish way. Kinda like a cross betwwen these two (one looks extremely modest to a slightly ugly point (is that a sweater-halter?) and the other manages to still look hookerish despite the modest neck):

They probably figure their is too dumb to differentiate between the two.

i say we all vote to pair her with goyle...

who is with me>?

uchidachi June 1 2003, 15:03:50 UTC

Hell, yeah!

Put her with Goyle! The poor guy never gets any slack! And he's so cuuute!

Also, you just know that Draco makes Crabbe and Goyle... scrub his back for him.
