Hogwarts the Musical

Now, that is most definitely a classic "killer" review, literally, even, it appears. I thought, given the folks involved, that it was spot-on, too. The afterward was amusing and totally in character for Harry & Luna; I can't say that I'm surprised that Hermione decided to join them and go with the flow. Ron is going to be a tad upset and ticked-off, but, as Hermione thought, he hasn't bought a clue so he loses.
I do applaud your delightfully twisted mind with this one.
Now, perhaps the Gryffs can reply with a Gilbert & Sullivan-based show? I can see Dumbles portrayed as singing something to fit "I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major General" while Cornelius is portrayed singing something based on "When I was a Lad". The Gyrffs in general would be singing something based on "We Sail the Ocean Blue" while a modified "I'm Called Little Buttercup" would be absolutely perfect for Luna.Author's response
- Having received a review or two like that I can assure anyone who doesn't know they hurt...
- Ron hesitated and he lost.
- Twisted is what I do best.
- Oh no, you want a Griffs do Gilbert and Sullivan, you do it yourself. (do the one about honor) I only did this horror to kill that particular bunny once and for all. I've promised people to never do that again.Hogwarts the Musical

With trembling fingers, and eyes half-shut, I pushed the button for chapter 2, et Voila!!
Cell at his wicked best!!!!
You have a gift, sir, New York beckons.
Favorite bits:
Dressmaker's dummy...expires giggling.
"He knows" sums up LV better than poor JKR did with a month full of pensive memories..
Luna and Harry totally set Hermione up..."God, not while I'm trying to talk!!"
Good for them.
Thanks again, although I still reserve the right to fear you again at a later date..
Fickle Critics.Author's response
- Nah, I couldn't do that professionally. Eventually I'd feel bad about abusing real people.
- I was in a bind with the story. I knew that I wanted the show to be pointedly all male (for the Lucius jokes) but I also wanted to use "Ginevra" so the Dressmaker's Dummy with a red wig upstaging Draco and Co was born... (The things I'll do to make a joke work)
- I see Luna as the sharing kind of girl...
- My weapon is fear. and satire. My Weapons are Fear, and Satire. and a general inability to spell..
- Amongst my weapons are such diverse elements as fear, satire, a general inability to spell and a fanatical refusal to take anything seriously.... Oh, and a willingness to steal Python material...Hogwarts the Musical

I have to say that the pain of such a review does make the AK sound good. It was brilliant!
Not only did it portray everything as rubbish, it made it seem dull. As the actors did get some pats on the head, the material and production had all the blame, putting that blame squarely on the scaliest head.
Of course, being the smut-freak and perv that i am, i wouldn't have minded a slightly longer chapter, though.
Purchased a clue. I'll have to remember that one.

- Especially Seamstresses Dummy, she was good...
- Your porn is good, mine, not so much. (I end up sounding like a particularly bad Greenleaf novel) so I don't do graphic scenes.
