a true conversation

[fox]

a bunch of us:  [Blah blah, Harry Potter filmed here, annoying when the tourists come, but seeing the movies can renew the Oxford love, etc.]
one guy:  Only, no wand.
another guy:  [Yes, and something else about not having magic.]
self:  And a really disappointing lack of Alan Rickman.
the other woman in the group:  Yes.  What's up with that?
men:  Hang on, I don't -- because this is Professor Snape, right?  What is it that women see in him?
self, the other woman in the group:  [boggle]
then, in unison:  The voice!

I don't even like Harry Potter and I dig the whole Snape/Rickman thing. The voice, the outsider-among-outsiderness, the sardonic superciliousness, the hint of sensuality beneath it all. The eyes. And the *sneer*.

I mean, there's something for everyone, whether you're the type to revel in submitting to that, or the type to take it as a challenge... what's not to like?

*snicker* Ah, the discerning females and the clueless males. The voice, indeed. I love that you all were in unison about that. Hee.
