'Cuz you have to *feel* the lurve to write about it
Can y'all stand one more Potter mini-wank?

LaFeeMechante doesn't care much for Hermione Granger. But that doesn't stop her from writing a Draco/Hermione fic that wins the Icicle Award for best fic in the 'ship. This excites her greatly, although in her LJ post announcing her win she admits she only wrote the fic because she wanted to write about Draco and doesn't like Hermione at all.

This is apparently deeply troubling to Schuywriter, who is a mod at the PIRA awards, yet another award for Draco/Hermione fics (is this ship really that big?). LaFee's fic is nominated for the PIRA Award, as well, and all hell breaks loose when the nomination is declined because LaFee is not a *true* Draco/Hermione 'shipper. (Warning: that LJ entry is *long*... so long, in fact, that it appears to have exceeded LJ's maximum entry size limit.)

Highlights include the delineation of requirements for true Draco/Hermione shipperdom, invocation of the First Amendment, an insider's view into the mind of JK Rowling and much cross-posting of private e-mails.
