I don't mind pairings, and I'm not against romance. This secret came about because I said I liked a certain show, and the first question I got asked was essentially 'OMG WHATZ UR FAVRIT PAIRING!!q11q11ooneeeee!!' I don't watch the show because I want to ship people... I watch it because it's got a good story. o.O

I mean, let's say we're talking about Heroes here. There's some innuendo, but if you say to me 'WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE PAIRING!? I SHIP MOHINDER/SYLAR!' I automatically lose all respect for you, unless you tell me that you actually watch it for the story and not the non-existant ass-sex.

1. If I want a real plot, I'll go read a book. That's what I live by.
10. You and everyone else.
30. Omg, me to. Why Dobby?!!

[wazira-sharira.livejournal.com]

30. You think that's bad? The only one I miss is Hedwig!

37. Kingdom Hearts without Disney makes as much sense as...as something that doesn't make any sense at all. And lol at people pulling "it's a legal thing" out of their asses. Disney is not as vigilant about its characters as some people think--they allow fanfic, they allow clear rip-offs like the one in secret #36, they allow Dreamworks to mock them...yeah, I have a hard time believing they'd care about ROLEPLAYERS for heaven's sake.

9 - It's good to know I'm not alone! He's just so awesome.

SIMONS FOR PEACEGAR!!! D

They also allow RPGs, that they most certainly know about. The reason I know for a fact that Disney isn't as tightass about legal issues as people yap about is that I RP'd with someone who works for Disney. To be fair, Disney does treat some of their employees like ass, but... They encourage fandom, for the most part.

#24 OP here

It's such an important song to me...I'm so glad someone else finally recognized it too. :)

Re: 22

Okay, sorry to just jump in here, but some of these don't make a lot of sense. Regarding point number 1, I recall Lily making it pretty clear to him that it was a 'them or me' situation. And I totally agree with her. And even if she didn't make it completely, 100% explicitly clear to him? I'd still think very little of him for being so selfish. I'm sorry, but - for instance - if I were a Black woman in the 1920s in America, and my best friend were a white guy who was trying to join the KKK to "impress" me? I'd think he was a huge, massive asshole, too, regardless of his bad childhood or whatever.

And as for point number three, I'm pretty sure she didn't "pick" James over Snape until after he'd cut her down with the "mudblood" in Snape's Worst Memory. Maybe it's just my reading of the scene, but wasn't that why it was his worst memory? Because that was the moment when he really lost Lily? He lashed out at her and their relationship was completely changed because of it - his choices and actions forced her away, and if he reacted badly to that, it's nobody's fault but his own. So while I'm certain that he did go a bit mad afterwards, I don't think it was because of any "clinging" - he was the one who initiated the "breakup" between the two friends, as it were. She wanted to help him, but perhaps due to machismo or shame or hatred of James, it was ultimately his choice (and Lily's understandable reaction) that broke their relationship down.

Snape is an interesting character, but I think it really cheapens the arc of his redemption to skim over the bad things he did or exuse them due to bad upbringing, or act as though the bad things he did in and of themselves are sympathetic acts. He started out with a bad home situation, but made things worse for himself when he made bad choices. He was not a good person. But he changed and that's why, in the end, he was ultimately sympathetic, I think.

I'm sorry, but no one is as great as Atticus Finch.

No one.

11 & 32

[serika-san.livejournal.com]

Whoa, two Tutu secrets? That totally made my day~! PT needs more love!

11. Very much in agreement with you! Fakir/Ahiru has been my one true OTP ever since I've seen the show and still nothing beats them in my book. X3

32. Normally, I would say I couldn't see the pairing as romantic at all (personally I identify it as admiration from both sides, but that's my opinion). However, in an AU RP where Mytho isn't heartless, I find the Mytho/Ahiru pairing to be very cute and plausible. It gives me cavities from the sweetness. ...Unless you mean strictly Tutu/Mytho? That I can see a lot more, partially because I don't really consider Ahiru and Tutu to be the same person.

Re: 22

[haro.livejournal.com]

Quick clarification though- I don't remember it being mentioned anywhere that Snape's mother gave him the nickname Prince.

I didn't mean that she gave him the nickname, but that he took the nickname from her- as it was her maiden name. Why would he make a personal nickname of the maiden name of someone he resented for mistreating him? He clearly held his mother in some kind of positive regard.

I just believe there's no real evidence that Snape had a bad relationship with his mother. Someone can receive love from their mother and still have a not so great upbringing. They were poor and something was up with dad, but I don't see where we get the idea there were severe mother issues.

[merienem.livejournal.com]

I don't think it really matters whether he really, truly, in his heart of hearts, hated wizards from non-magical lineage and/or muggles. He joined a group dedicated to shaming, exterminating, or otherwise harming them. I think this is a case when actions speak louder than intentions.

2. hay i saw u on /v/.

22. No comment on Snape (still need to read to read the last book), I will comment that Atticus Finch is my favorite literary character ever.

[(Anonymous)]

But the fact that he became so interested in the Dark Arts was a huge part of his character, you take that from him and it's not Snape anymore.

2: LOL.

10: You're not alone on this one.
