    It's...Okay. Funny concept, though.

    3.5/5.

    The ending was a winner, but it could have gone without slash and mpreg.

    Eh - Meh. Slightly funny.

    The idea that a Malfoy-Potter descendant becomes the next Dark Lord is ok, but alltogether it's just meh.

    3/5

    A definite twist on the usual Sorting Hat misfits. It brought a chuckle so I guess it accomplished what it was meant to. However like ip82 said, the slash almost stopped me from even reading it. 3/5

    The slash was forced and just...weird. Albus becoming a dark lond and Scorpius becoming the golden boy would have been funnier.

    But the ending was win.

    3.5/5

    Vaguely amusing. Going to far for bad jokes. 3/5.

    I'll give it a 4/5 because the Allan Rickman line was perfect.

    I didn't laugh, but it's kind of late. I know that this can't be library material, however, the theory behind it could be made into something more worthwhile. *Feels a definite challenge coming on (without the slash)

    At most a 3/5.

    I do believe that disgustingly funny is the perfect way to describe this fic. 5/5

    Utterly silly, but in a good way. Draco and Harry at the homo-wedding was hilarious. 5/5

    Meh. This was all over the place. Chuckled once at “So...do you like stuff?” The slash and MPREG didn't bother me at all (oddly enough). The idea of a portrait of Severus hanging in the Headmaster's office did make me throw up a little in my mouth though. So I guess it has that going for it.

    Even if this were cleaner it'd still only be a 3/5 for me, but since it's a mess 2/5.

    2.5/5.

    Some nice ideas, although the slash ruined it for me. Liked the Snape bits, and the ending. That was about it though, the rest was crap.
     
  17. Well, mixed reviews at any rate. Great to see, rather than a flock of sycophants. One question, if you don't like slash, why did you read it?

    Err, I read it because it was rec-ed here. Probably wouldn't otherwise.

  20. It was a parody of slash more than anything. Somewhere between humour and crack, something to get me writing again. If you read it for anything more serious than that it will hardly be entertaining.

    To nonjon, why did the portrait of Snape in the Headmaster's office make you throw up a little?
