How do you piss off a RxH Harry Potter fan?

March 24th, 2004 by Babs

Okay, yesterday a friend of mine (who shall remain nameless, unless they wish me to include their name here) posted a link to an LJ post by a Harry Potter Ron X Hermoine fanatic, who freaked when someone introduced the possiblity of Harry X Hermoine. S/he insisted that there the only possible canon pairing, and that was Ron X Hermoine, and that all others were wrong.

Needless to say, s/he was pissing off alot of people.

So I jumped in and basically agreed that Harry X Hermoine as a canon pairing was inconceivable…

Then I added that any proper HP fan already knew that Harry and Snape have been doing the horizontal bop since book one.

Needless to say the ranter deleted their post, along with all the responses.

My work there is done. *evil smirk*

I should have known that was you. I love you. Best comment in the entire thread, heh heh heh.

And I had been wondering where that rant had gone. Now I know.

  Wow! Small world! *laughs*
  
  Thanks! I couldn’t resist the temptation. It didn’t help that I had five trouble-making muses spurring me on.
  
  Maybe that’ll make them think before they go off on another idiotic rant.

*sobs laughing* You were born to be a fandom_wanker.

(If I was to ship Hemrione with anyone, it would be Neville for a whole host of reasons, or Cho, as she certainly understands her better than Harry does. But I can’t help wanting her to end up happily single. She reminds me so much of my best friend, you see, and she’s asexual, so I project.)

  I don’t know about asexual, but Hermoine strikes me as an individual who would be happy regardless of whether she had someone or not. She’s neither the weepy “I don’t have a relationship” type, nor is she the “I don’t need a relationship, dammit!” type.

    Agreed. If it happened, she’d welcome it, but she’s not about to waste her time looking when there are so many other things she could be doing.

I laughed like crazy with this!

I kind of like RxH. Not in a romantic ‘you are the love of my life’ type of way but as a possibility. I’ve only read the books, no HP fanfiction for me until the last one is out. But as I said, I’m open to possibilities.

I really liked your response to that person. I wonder what s/he would say to one of my friends who is very happy writing Hermione x Snape?

*applauds* you did your good did for the day.
