      Cool. :)

      It occurred to me 'cause of this really great theory I love about them--but I'll just save that for when the challenge comes up (and share it with proper credit to to who came up with the theory).

      Also, I've been thinking about Voldemort/Tom Riddle a lot. And I can't really find a place to vent about him. How I wished he would've been a character. An interesting villain. It bothers me 'cause he had potential, but just ended up kinda flat to me by the end. Too much of an archetype/symbol for The Evil. Evil from the start, doomed from the beginning--like someone said once, I wanted to see him struggle in his past between good and evil and then fall--not be given the air of inevitability. So much choice. I wanted tragedy, and a fall would've been tragic--instead, not much of an emotional punch at all.

      And I'm usually such a Villain fan, finding their appealing and complex traits--and Voldemort had that potenial. But it was wasted.

        Heh. We'll have to make the Riddle challenge very soon then, methinks.

        BTW, you can discuss almost any subject here if you do it under 'fannish magic'. I really need to get my faq and rules section updated...

        'Fannish magic' means that you can take a characterization or magical invention or description, whatever takes your fancy, from any Snape fanfic and discuss it here. Provide a link to the story, ask the author if you're not sure, and describe the element in that story you want to discuss in your post. Since Voldemort is in very many Snape stories, this would be an option, too. But as a challenge it's great as well. We've had one or two fannish magic discussions in the past. It has a tag, check them out.
