Heidi: "1. Is Draco sexy?"
Caius: "No"
Simon: "I have to agree here! Now if we were to ask if Ginny (in a
certain picture findable on the PoU group) or Fleur are sexy then
quite clearly the answer would be yes!"
Cass: "Can I just say that Dr. Simon Branford is going to suffer for
that?"
Another threat! Am I going to get chucked in that cell with Lupin?
Neil: "I wonder if we can get through this without mention of leather
trousers?"
Simon: "I think we failed by you mentioning them (and especially by
me then replying!). I get back from a few weeks away and in fan
fiction land there are mentions of males walking around in boxer
shorts (and less) and Draco having a sponge bath. Will people just
face up to the possibility that he is a scumbag?
Cass: "But it's much more fun to imagine that he isn't. <g> And I
quite liked Alicia's boxer shorts story. Why shouldn't there be
a "sansvetements!" spell? In my own defense I discovered while
searching the Draco egroup messages to see if anyone there had come
up with a positive characteristic for Draco, that I didn't invent the
Draco in leather thing. It appears to have been a fixation for quite
some time. Whole threads are taken up with what kind of leather
trousers they would be cut, color, fit, the works. <g>
Apparently I
am not as weird as I once thought."
No. It just means that there are lots of other weird people out
there! A think a certain author has a lot to answer for, in writting
a bad kid who everyone (well lots of people) in fan fic land seems to
think will be redeemed and be near perfect in the end.
