    ... I don't really want to know, but somehow I can't stop my fingers from typing this question: did any of the Harry/Snape stuff happen while Harry was still a minor, and if so, was any of it while he was Snape's student?

    All of it. Harry is 14 at the time the fic takes place.

    I'm going to stagger away, and find something fluffy (with consenting adults) to read now. Possibly in the Supernatural fandom.

    I have nothing to say to this other than 'What has been read cannot be unread.'

    Best Kept Secret » by Heuvel reviews
    Harry's first auror assingment under the reign of Kingsley as minister is to track down an unregistered witch by the name of Melrose Sherwood. It was supposed to be simple, too. Harry/OC. After DH.
    Rated: T - English - Romance - Chapters: 7 - Words: 18,624 - Reviews: 23 - Updated: 5-16-11 - Published: 2-21-11 - Harry P. & OC - Complete

    This fic isn't really awesomely bad, I didn't read beyond the first chapter because it seemed like it was going to be boring derivative shit, but I did find the passive sexism of this line to be fairly amusing.

    This story is lulzy. I think the author is trying on purpose to make the most ridiculous story ever. In the story (and many like it) Harry has a ton of political, magical, and financial power, and withdraws all his Gringotts money. Dumbledore, the Ministry, and the goblins don't like that, so manipulative!Dumbledore comes up with a plan to put Harry into a stasis like Han Solo in the bowels of Gringotts to be reawoken whenever his power is needed to defeat an evil. Harry doesn't like this, so he built a A-Bomb in his shed and detonated underneath Gringotts.

    Yeah.

    Thats just the first 500 words or so too.

    Luan Mao does not deserve to be in this thread, Anarchy. He's far too awesome. :mad:

    Hey, that story makes me giggle. And it's not written too badly, either.

    One thing I liked about this fic was the fact that the goblins did not seem to be overjoyed by the fact that one wizard possessed 99.9999999% of the gold in Gringotts. Seeing as how a person who controlled as much Gold as Harry does in some of these lordship stories would essentially control the entire wizarding economy, and in turn would have huge amounts of power over the Goblins.

    That one sort of saddened me - that the author could apparently be so earnest about it, and that so many of the fic's reviewers were eating it up.

    IMO the height of awesomely bad Ginny-sue fanfiction is one that was was linked on DLP as an April Fools joke a couple of years back.

    Ginny Weasley: Supervixen

    It's a perfect example of the breed - at first you figure it has to be parody, because there's no way someone with decent writing ability would come up with such an absurd set of ideas and then play them straight. But then you start to wonder. Essentially, the fic is a retarded variant of Kill Bill's plot. But here's a three word example of how fucked-up it can get:

    "Benevolent." Pedophile. Draco.
