ToS, on the other hand. I love the way FD writes and would follow her most places. Like the Star Wars universe, see how much I like her? :D:D

But it's on the Transfigurations level with me -- smart, funny, not cliche, characters different than we know them but still fascinating. The post-Hogwarts thing is really just an excuse to slightly Sue-ify the characters, of course, but when the writing is good I am all for it. :">

But yeah, that's why I said it came out too late in my fandom career, when I was already bitter and resentful and WHY IS NO ONE WRITING IC!H/D LONGFIC, WHY WHY WHY YOU INFIDELS??! etc. I liked Transfig so much 'cause even though there were OOC characterizations all around, Harry rung true to me and that made me hold on. I was just... so happy he didn't like Draco's sudden coolness. I was like, YOU GO HARRY!!1 (Wish-fulfillment, I guess, hee).
