    I think Uncle Stojil just means he hopes the story isn't so bad that it makes him want to slit his wrists, which is understandable.

    I'm confused to as why you would sign your post with your username though when everyone can see it just fine to the left of your post. It seems pointless.

    I actually have Harry disabled in a fic I'm writing(the one I started for the dark arts contest). Although it's more of a side-plot than anything and it's really more dying than disabled and I can't really vouch for it's quality and have you noticed how I seem to really like run on sentences?

    Yeah.

    I'll probably(never) post it up in WBA in a few months so if you're interested in something like that, well don't get your hopes up.

    /goes off to fail at writing some more

    EDIT: You know what? Disregard that whole post. I feel stupid for writing it.

    You know, despite everything and the ridiculous angst, I like broken beyond healing. It had some quite interesting plot points and developed well once the angst was done with. Maybe a guilty pleasure fic, sure. But I liked it.

    A story with Harry finding out that he got cancer and then dealing meth so that his family could live happily ever after would be fun to read. :)

    I read a story once that had his brother as the BWL and Harry was mute. Can't remember if it was good, don't remember who wrote it, and will probably deny ever reading it if I read it again. This seems to happen with most fics I used to read...

    I think that was a DLP WBA story. Years back, like in 2007?

    Also, anyone know of any stories where Harry's the HP version of River Tam? Or something along those lines?

    Eg.

    Harry simply stared at this 'Ronald Weasley' for a few moments, his head titled up at an angle, an odd look of curiosity upon his face.

    Hermione's eyes widened - she knew that look! This wasn't going to end well.

    And sure enough, it didn't.

    Without any sort of warning beforehand, he suddenly jabbed the annoying, ginger haired gnat in the throat with both his index finger and his middle-finger. He didn't even bat an eyelid as 'Ronald' collapsed at his feet faster than a deck of wet playing cards, nor when the fallen youth's skin started to turn an ominous green.

    "Ogre's shouldn't talk - it's not natural. They should be in their caves, eating - and playing with the leprechauns, of course."

    Upon hearing Hermione's stifled giggle (or was it a hysterical laugh?), he turned to her and owlishly blinked twice. "Do you think they'll serve tea at dinner? I do miss having it with pineapple scones..."

    Behind them, Draco Malfoy, who had been planning upon challenging 'Potty' to a Wizard's Duel, swallowed the lump within his throat and quickly changed his mind.

    Fuck, no.

    Seriously, if you punch in the words 'mute harry' you get a whole bunch of them.

    Why not write it to your signature then? You don't have to write it again every time if you do that.

    How much sense does it make for the title to be "Broken Beyond Healing" when he "gets a new body" and "becomes pretty strong & independent"?

    Maybe he has a disorder where he has to continually write his name, or he'll forget his very existence?

    You mock me, but it's a very serious mental disorder and the last thing the world needs is to take it lightly. Its scientific name is Pokemonitis and it's spreading at such a high rate you will all be subjected to it in a matter of months. It compels the diseased to cry out his or her name at irregular intervals and medication seems to only help so much. So stop crushing my balls about it and watch out fooooor

    *pounds his breast vigorously*

    Stojil!

    P.S. Tell your friends.

    P.P.S. And really, what the fuck do you care?

    He's probably an ogre.

    Or a leprechaun.

    Back on topic for a sec, this was not it.

    Yes, I know you get a whole bunch of results for 'mute Harry', but of the ~50 I trolled through, 45 of them were slash. Fuck that noise.

    Also, do want Harry Tam. Do want VERY much.

    Why not? I was feeling the fear at that moment. Just accept it.

    So it wasn't the pineapple scones, or Harry crushing Ron's voice box?
