Slytherin Pride
First of all, the fact that I'm posting any of this here is solid proof that I'm in a very strange headspace today, and will probably deeply regret it tomorrow. Oh well.

I have no interest in celebrities whatsoever. Or reality. I really mean that. I can't think of a single media luminary that would cause me to turn rabid-fangirl, should I see them in the street. Except for Stephen Fry, and that's only because I'd be forced to jump on him until he did his impression of a gay German for me ('Oh, wo ist mein handy? Ich habe mein handy verloren') ... but I digress.

I'm a strange creature, and the subjects of my hero worship are all fictional characters. Yep. I'm not going to list them, but every single one is an irascible, acerbic, not-conventially attractive, misanthropic wanker. I'm really not sure what's wrong with me.

Consequently, and as one such example, I am a Draco Malfoy enthusiast. That's putting it mildly, to be honest. It's lucky for him that he's fictional. (And yes, I realise that makes little to no sense). I'm not even going to start in on the fanfic thing, really; it'll only make things worse.

Devotion is one thing. Unconsciously turning into object of said devotion... disturbing. Caught myself in the mirror yesterday - pretty short, bleached-blond hair; black clothes; green and silver scarf. Erm. I really don't know how that happened. Still went out anyway, fuck it.

On a side note, I highly recommend a Slytherin scarf. Keeps you warm and puts the fear of god up most small children within a ten-foot radius. You can then make eye contact, smirk and wish you'd brought a bit of wood to point at them.

... for the same result with middle-aged shoppers, try a cheerful rendition of 'Springtime for Hitler', as I found out last week in the soup aisle at Marks & Spencers. To my delight.

I shouldn't be allowed near people, should I?

(n.b. If you know nothing about the whole Potter thing, and therefore feel 'wtf' about all of that, then rest easy... you are a much, much cooler person than me).

Heh
Small child detterent! (orders scarf) And I think I know who you mean, I saw one of the films, the one with the giant snake at the end in some pipes. Mind you, the colour thing sounds a lot cooler. Plus, silver/green on black is pretty similar to Corwin's colours in 9 princes.

giant snake
Chamber of Secrets, indeed. It's a good colour combo, the worry is that I was doing it almost without being aware of it... I think it's too late for my sanity though, so it's ok.

Ahh, well
you see anyone can consciously emulate their (anti)heroes, but it takes real obsessive fan power to do so subconsciously!

Draco?
When there is the far more delectable Snape ;)

Heh
While I adore Draco unreservedly, Snape is also on my list. Oh god yes. :)

Mmmmmmmmm
I want to hug whoever cast Rickman as Snape. Genius. And responsible for my slutty schoolgirl fantasies...

Rickman
Agreed. That person deserves a fucking parade. I mean, I didn't need any help to find evil sexy, but really, that voice could turn anyone. *fans self*

I feel much better
About my Lucius Malfoy *thing* after reading this.

Oh...!
Lucius also makes the list. What an absolute bastard... yes please.

I feel better about this post now I've read these comments ;) It's nice to not be the only one...

At least Malfoy is a plausible fictional hornbeast
A mate's girlfriend wants to have Lord Vetinari's babies.

Havelock Vetinari from the Discworld novels? The murderous, 50-something bureaucrat? With David Blaine's beard?

Still, they say there's someone for everybody.

A plausible fictional hornbeast?
... I like it. And hell yes, he is.

Oh dear. I feel for your mate, how to compete with that? ;) A David Blaine beard is enough to frighten anyone, surely.

Indeed. There's nowt as queer as folk. Apparently.
