From the "Ask Snape" segment:

"...I am a man of honour. Had the Advanced Potions-Making book indeed been written by someone other than myself, the cover would have been marked appropriately to give each author credit. For example: Property of the Half-Blood Prince and the red-headed know-it-all who doesn't know what she's missing."

LOL! Indeed.


But then:

(question from listener) "Had she been willing, do you think you could have been reconciled to a friendship with the adult Lily, even after she had married James?"

" [with increasing irritation] Quite frankly, my personal feelings are none of your concern. I suppose I owe this ludicrous question to Ms. Rowling's penchants for exaggeration and melodrama, so in the hopes of putting this issue behind me once and for all, I will say this:

When I said 'always' --

[softly] I meant it."


Cue me pausing to, like, cry. Tugging on the heartstrings, yo.


From the Top 10 (things to do once the regular Snapecasts end):

"4. Play The Birthday Party's 'Release the Bats' over and over and over and develop a theory about how JK Rowling based the Severus Snape character on Nick Cave."

Hey -- "Black Hair" and "Green Eyes". 'nuff said. Although I suppose Severus is more of a good seed than a bad one. ;)


...Wow, SnapeFest filled up in like a single day. I suppose I shouldn't be surprised. You lucky 50! (Not that I was going to Portus anyway.)

20 Random Facts about Albus Severus Potter

Rating: G
Words: 868
A/N: I started to outline to [livejournal.com profile] melusinahp what I would wish a hypothetical eighth book focusing on Albus Severus to be like, and then, well, here I was. She suggested I repost it, but it hasn't actually been betaed. (added 2016: not Cursed Child-compliant.)

1. He's a Hufflepuff. Yes, really. )

LE/SS is more indeed!

*looks at signups for [livejournal.com profile] less_for_you*

Looking pretty good. I think this is going to turn out well after all. To those of you on my flist who have signed up, thank you!

But HAY U GUYZ, CHECK IT OUT. Since I was uncomfortable signing up to participate, after my hopefully well-directed pimping (my apologies to anyone who has an flist like mine and therefore got totally spammed with this exchange a day or so ago), I offered my services to [livejournal.com profile] orpheus_samhain as far as running the exchange. I was half expecting "no, thanks", but got back "Might need help with posting, so if it's ok with you, I'll make you a comm maintainer, and please send me your email so I can give you the mod account login".

Er, uh. Well then! Sure! I can has usefulness on my favourite ship! Yaytastic!
