    Harry Potter and the Narrative Causality, by Clell65619

    Harry Potter and the Narrative Causality
    Author: Clell65619
    Rating: Older Teen
    Genre: Humor
    Pairing: H/Hr
    Status: One-shot, complete

    Summary: Hermione discovers the power Harry has that the Dark Lord knows not. Harry enlists the aid of a certain carbosilicate amorph, who lives to kill people and break their things. A most silly fic.

    This isn't even a parody - it's more akin to a skewering. I found the beginning more fun than the end, but there were lots of sparkly bits. It's short, light, and fluffy. There is NO nutritional value in this story, people. It has about as much substance as Twinkies. That said, I grinned all the way through.

    is that a crackfic?
    It sure has the plot of one, but something is missing....

    maybe the humor...

    anyway, i'd give it 2/5 not in the mood for fluffy nonsense

    I actually was in the mood for fluffy nonsense - and it still sucked. If the author has to resort to breaking the fourth wall for humor, and still fail at it, well...

    2/5.

    Aw come on, the "optional glow of doom" almost made the story for me.
    But then again I like the web comic, I say stick it in the humor section, no harm no foul. 4/5.

    Fourth Wall Humor? Fail

    Basically no Plot? Fail

    Ron/Luna? Fail

    Harry basically gets anything he wants badly enough either good or bad? Fail

    I would say I forgot to laugh, but it wasn't humorous.

    2/5 if only because I could read the story with no problems.
