God, I have such a headache. I foolishly decided to get some cornrows and now I look like Queen Latifah in Set it Off. But the damn stylist made them too tight. These fucking things are coming out today.

Anyway…

I finally updated TMTM with chapter 6 a few days ago. LJ was being a ho and not letting me post then.

Yes, I know. It took me a pathetically long time to update with a chapter I have had written since March. I did a lot of editing. I’m still not pleased with the final version but it will do. I’m sick of looking at it.

One of my friends had a huge problem with how Lucius reacts to something that happens to Hermione. I think she forgets that it’s a L/Hr fic, not, say, a R/Hr. Ah, well.

I’ve gotten a few more reviews from people who dislike Doris. I didn’t write her as a character to be disliked but I can certainly see why some would. And well, actually, I wouldn’t be surprised if even more people dislike or even hate her when other things come to light.

I’m just glad they feel something for Doris. Even if it is dislike. In my mind it would be worse if they were indifferent, as if she is just an easily dismissed OC. I actually spent a lot of time thinking about Doris’ characterization, maybe even more so than with Lucius and Hermione. Although Doris stays mostly in the background she is involved a few important subplots. The biggest one explores how a Muggle parent feels about loosing their only child to world in which they have no place. Her feelings on this lead her to do some shockingly manipulative things. Doris may come across as a dizzy scatterbrain but let me assure you, if the woman had been a witch, she’d definitely be sorted into Slytherin.

I spent all night reading some atrocious Lucius/Harry mpreg. Yes, I was bored. What’s always been odd to me is that the L/H ship contains a ton of mpreg. Yes, most slash ships do have a lot of it. Hell, there are probably more Snarry mpreg fics then there are L/H fic in total. But ratio-wise? It seems like every other L/H I find is a mpreg while it’s like every fifth fic (or even less) for Snarry or H/D.

I’m not complaining as I like m-preg. I just think it’s kind of weird.
