Oy.

You guys, you've got to know you've spent too much time in HP fandom at large when I suggest Snape/Luna and you worry I'm angling for a remake of Lolita. :)

Let me try that again. Snape and Luna, interacting in some positive fashion involving mutual understanding and respect. [livejournal.com profile] peacockharpy's just-written ficlet is a lovely example.

But if the story's set post-Hogwarts, bonus points for UST. Because actual Snape/Luna is the real challenge, I think.

Better now?

Well, you put the slash between the names; what are we supposed to think? You should have said Snape and Luna in the first place ;)

In *my* defense, last night I was simultaneously looking for apple cake recipes and the points where Alistair McKeon mentions drone testing in the HH series, so please forgive my misunderstanding XD

Oh, it wasn't a misunderstanding: I really would like Snape/Luna if someone feels up to it, I just wasn't expecting people to assume I meant underage Luna. In other words, I didn't mean Snape/Luna circa HP Book 5, but the way some people reacted made me think they must have assumed that I did, and I'd better clarify.

But as I noted with [livejournal.com profile] peacockharpy's ficlet, I'll happily take any kind of Snape and Luna interaction, whether it involves romance or not.

I did not assume an underage Luna, though looking at my comment it's easy to see how that could have been construed that way. That would be just wrong, not lovable wrong like a post-Hogwarts Luna/Snape.
