sua_layI thought I found a good Harry/Snape fic and spent hours reading it. The concept was kind of silly at first (Harry and Snape turning into 7 years old) but the author did seem to know what she was doing. I also liked the way the others had to deal with the fact that their friend was now a child with no adult memories. Ron and Hermione raising the two was hilarious.
Then they turned back to humans [ETA: apparently I don't see kids as humans. I of course meant ADULTS], and the very sharp story turned into a mushy emotional guagmire. EmotionalWreck!Snape appeared. The one with not just lots of traumas, but also the ability to show weaknesses to half the world.
I was pretty disappointed. Thirty years of repression and then after a few months of being a kid, Snape lets go of his suspicion and mistrust.
Did finish reading it, and would rate it above most of the crap in the net, but it was still kind of blaah.
Finns! Are we still doing the Turku thing in two weeks?![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
