nocturnus33hayseed_42 resume in a phrase what I felt about the SS/HG ship Snape/Granger, yes. Rickman!Snape/Watson!Hermione, fuck no!
I ask her permision into using the adapt phrase in an icon, is there any nice person in this flist with time to teach me how to make a "moving" icon with this motto:
Snape/Granger, yes. Rickman!/Watson!, fuck no!

Some one post at WIKTT a stupid thing about H/S going to the states, I didn't say anything about that I felt it depends on the writter, but then today there was this post, and I can't stop answering:
The poster: It wouldn't be as advanced as English magic of course but there could be a special power in the primal, less refined magic of Native American Indians.
ME: Of course? Ejem, pardon me. I disagree.
America as the hole country, or america as the USA? Just kidding, I know you are including all the complex and lovely continent from Alaska to Chile in it's hole diversity, and not just one single country.
Also the idea of raw vs refine (advance) magic refering to Europe vs our continent is a little ethnocentric and like Rousseau idea of Bon Sauvage (wich if romantic, is insulting).
The word indians came from the idea of Colon arriving to India, but we have a culture of our own, not Indian one, not Raw, of course. But a different way of percieving the world, I would love this pairing to discover our culture and the values in it. Is hole different racionality, wich of both, Severus or Hermione, could be the more biased, prejuice and ignorant towards our American diversity?

Of all the ethnocentric ignorants!. Grrrrrrrrrr.
Indians!, Raw!, Not advance as England, of course; less refine.
I tend to forgot the Empire is healthy. I recon I lost my temper.

English people are masters into working and turning words into politically correcteness falling even in idocy sometimes. A Latin author couldn't publish a book because it was called "Dark Skin", first wordler decided it was aoffensive. To whom? We have a dark skin after all. I would like they have the same finesse of returning us a name that, here in Latina America is felt as stolen. A little flip through most of our literature will give you the idea, we felt as one continent, and we call our self America. We have been robed in many ways, the fact that our name is deny to us, is just one more expression of opressive structures aginst us.
