Theoretically speaking, if they can think of it, then they can talk of it. But as you've pointed out with Snape, there can be roadblocks on the way. If there is an answer to the "If..." question, if the writer manages to place successful and authentic roadblocks -- those that aren't half-assed measly things you can't even see the shadow of -- then that's a good writer, and it's a good story worth reading. Otherwise... well. I'd be hard to convince.
................dear gads. Here we go with the warnings again. *confuzzled toodles* To read or not to read.... x___________x
See, we're opposites. That mindset (the Harry-needs-someone-to-take-care-of-him mindset) comes to me at times, and I have a respectable collection of fics on that to boast. But more often than not I'm on the Harry's-already-suffered-this-much-so-he's-used-to-it-but-Draco's-not mindset. So I kind of flinch more at the Draco-angst stories. Which is prolly why I love you so, because you have a lot of Draco-chases-Harry stories -- precisely the type I prefer.
