I'm always kind of sad when the honeymoon's over. There's a wonderful frenzy in those first heady days of a fandom, when it's all so new and shiny that even five stories in a row where Harry has to spend the summer at Snape's house don't matter.
Ah yes, the dead horse that's been flogged so hard that it's now powder. That's why I end up being utterly entranced when someone comes up with a plotline that hasn't been written two dozen times already (like resonant8 and her 'Harry gets turned into a frog' or predatrix and her Snape the inanimagus or Josan and *everything*).
When Lupin/Black stories don't seem hopelessly sweet and sugary....oh, wait, but that never happened....
You mean there are stories that don't have Snapesex in them? *scratches head* No, I don't see how that's possible...
As for the 'half-written stories' I was being pleased about the fact I have zero Snape plot bunnies! Hoorah! I have enough from other fandoms galloping around my ankles to need that kind of harassment as well...
