Huh. Here I thought I'd got over being put off by 20-year age differences (case usually in point, Severus/Harry), or at least was consistently able to handwave it as "age difference alone is kind of the least of the issues here". But guess what? Bring a 19-year-old Lily forward in time to a nearly 38-year-old Severus, and lo and behold, I am back to not being able to stomach it. Weird.

Interesting. Was there a fic out there where this happened?

Hmmm where's the fic at? I'm curious.

Interesting. It doesn't squick me at this point, but if it keeps going, the potential is there.

Yeah, the 3000-year mental age difference in LOTR didn't seem to bother people at all (it bothered me - I was all 'what are you two going to *talk* about'). The "wrinkled old fart" aspect is the problem for most.

Yep (but any human/[insert otherworldly designation here] relationship bothers me for the same reason).
