Bob Schroeck Wrote:Actually, I'm wondering if Kinsfire isn't actually trying to write a deconstruction of the Harry Sue subgenre. It's impossible to say yet; we'll need to see more chapters to be sure -- but at the moment, setting up a Harry Sue, only to have Evil!Dumbledore and Evil!Minion!Snape be equal to the task of countering him, is rather unusual. If they can keep it up, I'll call this a deconstruction for sure; if Harry (or the girls) starts sweeping the opposition away with ease, though...It appears to be moving more towards the latter than the former with the latest chapter. Nothing definitive so far but I'd have to say Dumbledore came off worse from the conflict in this chapter.
