This thought came upon me (again!) no, not when I reached for the gun, but when I was reading this thread. Link is courtesy of Alanis.
OMGs. Compared to the Nimbus 2003 topics or common treads in HP fans' LJs... That's so primitive, that I cannot even think about joining the discussion. OK, many of those present there are unable to read in English, so they are derived form most of the best slash HP fiction written out there. But why cannot they create something of the same quality? Geez.
Gone mourning over the inability of Russian fans to read and appreciate Origins, Underwater Light, Transfigurations, Plague of Legends and others...
Oh. Just noticed. All those fics I listed... All of them are Slythfics. Ah. Say, is that just me or Russian fandom is very, very Gryffindorish?

А ты не думаешь, что это ты выбираешь про-слитеринские фики? (и, кстати, как насчет ссылочками на первых два упомянутых поделиться?)

Нет, это не я выбираю "про-слитеринские" фики, просто любой фик, в котором есть не двухмерные Слитеринцы практически автоматически оказывается таковым - ну какой любитель Гриффиндора будет заморачиваться на выписывание слитеринского характера? Да у него и не получится =))
