stupid HP cannon/fannon question

I barely even remember who Kingsley Shacklebolt is in the books ( I suppose I could go look it up in the lexicon), but could someone, ANYONE, tell me why apparently all of fannon has decided he's the sexiest thing to ever walk to the earth? Does that come from anywhere or are people just bored again?

(no subject)

said in response to splix on the subject of Dune, respoted here, because it will probably be useful to me in _something_ and because it's relevant to some other recent posts of mine:

There's something distasteful about always being the power _behind_ something, no matter how powerful you are and then having to couch it all in pride and endurance.

V for Vendetta

plot change spoilers here from alterjess -- don't look if you don't want to know, and don't holler at her or me about it if you do and you didn't.

Ugh. I am really worried about this now. Could it be all they've gotten right is the tagline? I really trusted the Wachowski Brothers not to fuck up the sexual/identity politics of this thing, but now I am concerned.

Descensus update

This one was a serious pain to write because I was not actually a child when I was being a child about sex and our characters prefer to have more dignity than this story could possibly allow.
