Walden Macnair, Voldemort, and beer: HP RPG brings the wank
I needed a break from the enthralling saga of [info]charlottelennox, and an HP RPG is happy to oblige, with debates over the canonicity of Voldemort and Walden Macnair's hot sex life.

Thanks to Letty on [info]wank_report for the links to all of this.



The first link brings a ranting [info]soldurios, hard-core Death Eater fan. She's not happy about the quality of writing in an RPG she's been involved in:

The Snape - Totally emotionless. It was as though the player was just going through the motions but with none of the actually feeling behind it. It was as though there was no soul behind the character. There was nothing! To top it all off, the Snape player had Snape falling for an underage, femmy uke-boy.

The underage-femmy uke boy - Dear god. This is a Marty Stu that could beat out all the other Marty Stu. Tragic past? Check. Life as a whore? Check. Depression? Check. Pseudo-multiple personality? Check. Hears voices? Check. Wangst? Check.

It was abysmal. But I sucked it up because I'm a pathetic masochist like that. Plus, the Lucius and Draco players were all right. Other people had warned me about this rpg and advised me that this just wasn't the place to rp canonically or well.

So finally, I opted to get the hell out of there. Why? Because the mod (and yes, there was just one mod, yet she called herself 'mods') bitched at how my Voldie had sex with a Death Eater.

Yes, Voldemort actually had SEX with a Death Eater! No love involved whatsoever. Just anger and hate and the Death Eater was also slightly drunk.


Cue the threads of "You are so right, girl!"

Then in another post, here comes the offended mod with a metric assload of copied emails, and the wank multiplies.

Amusing from the main post:

Yes, we've been over this. A lot of people think Voldemort likes the nookie. Let's say he does. Let's say that there are RPs everywhere with him boning everything from here to New Zealand. I will give you that point if you will shut up about it. The fact remains that you didn't exactly ease into it. Why Walden? Why then? Why with beer? Why in a hotel? Why was there absolutely no kind of hint or subtext that this kind of thing could happen? They just kind of... did. And all your arguing over it still seems like it's trying to cover up something that you know was probably in poor judgment.

Anyone who wants to find the scene with Walden, Voldemort, and beer in a hotel, please do.

> Just how involved are you in the Slytherin side of fandom?

Not enough to tattoo a Dark Mark on my arm, if that's what you mean. I read Harry Potter for fun, and I RP for fun. Suffice to say that I am involved exactly as much as it takes for me to have fun. I have enough not-fun things going on that I don't need to worry about psychoanalyzing people that don't exist.
Perhaps this means that I am not a 'real' fan. It eats me up inside sometimes that I'm spending a lot of my time working on novels and earning money instead of memorizing spells. But, we all have to make our sacrifices, don't we?


Slytherinista vs. starving author cagematch?

The comments really bring the wank:

I'm being pursued from forum to forum! (with added tl;dr downthread)

Someone goes and reads the thread:

I read the Voldemort/Warren thread and laughed. Voldemort... suggesting... they go steal a bike. Suggesting. To an underling. Not even ordering.

That's like, oh. The Dark Lord Sauron suggesting to Sauroman that they should go steal Bilbo's walking stick.

Assuming it's canon, the man's been dead, and he's sad because he hurt his bottom. There are very few words, and most of them are speechless. (I'd also like to posit that sensual is not the same as sexual.)


Finally, everyone gets told off:

Well, if it makes you happy, your regurgitated wank now confirms for me that all three of you (Voldemort, Walden, and her Modliness) exist on the very bottom of the cesspool of bad roleplay. The Voldemort is a self-righteous, wildly out-of-character wank machine, the Walden feels the need to air other people's dirty laundry all over the net, and the Mod has zero self-restraint, no dignity to speak of, and, it sounds like, among the worst of all Marty-Stues in her arsenal of characters.

Congratulations. I never, ever, ever want to roleplay with any of you, or participate in any roleplay which the three of you might find moderately interesting. You three are what this community is all about.

Thanks. Reading that was a lot like watching a load of hopped up on suger teenagers wack each other with bright pink feathery handbags. Hard to explain why it should be so entertaining, but compelling in a slow down and look at the accident sort of way.

I guess looking at really stupid people is entertaining. And also laughable.

And yes, I know the above sentiments are reprehensible; I don't care.

Fandom wank, I wish I could quit you!

As just about everyone must be saying after this past weekend.

Oh! But you're missing the best part of this if you don't go and read the scene itself, which is can be found here.

It's just classic. I was particularly fond of this line:

"It wasn't as though he wanted to date the Dark Lord. It was just a casual fuck to pass the time."

Do be sure that you read to the very end, lest you miss the part where Voldemort, Walden Macnair-in-a-new-pretty-frock, and Mr. Flibble from Red Dwarf all ride into the sunset together on a motorbike, to the theme from "Thelma and Louise."

Hey. When I'm not enjoying a role-playing game, I usually prefer to make a few polite excuses about 'time commitments' and suchnot, and then bow out gracefully. But you have to admit: doing it this way does show a certain flair.

See, I'm lazy. I wrote this wank report in such a way that lovely persons such as yourself (where ya been?) would come and bring the links to the best material.

And it worked!

Best line = "Off to CANON WORLD! Away from the bodysnatchers and bad writing, my Lord!"

Because DEs throwing sandwiches at Voldemort + DEs asking Voldemort to get them food = stellar writing, really.

Celestial_Spy knows more about Harry Potter than JK
Rowling does. I go to her with my questions about
canon and fanon. She is an honorary member of the RP,
on permanent hiatus.


The mod was doing passably, right up until that point. After that? So not interested in what she had to say and the player was probably wise to leave the game.

I'll add this. She's going to call down a player on an OOC characterization that offends her (and apparently one or two others), but she didn't see Snape shacking up with a 15 yr old as OOC?

...um...maybe it's best I don't know this HP canon biz.

I have to agree with the walking stick comment. My mind can't figure out what Voldemort could possibly want with a bike. That is unless he developed a Arthur-like fascination with muggles.

"Why Walden? Why then? Why with beer? Why in a hotel?"

You know, sometimes you just need a little love. And sometimes you don't want it to be anywhere an aquaintance might see. And sometimes - sometimes - you are so ashamed of your desires you need to get drunk on cheap domestic beer in order to even act on them. And sometimes you don't want to care that they didn't call you the next day or that you heard from a friend of a friend that they didn't even enjoy it, but dangitall, you do care and then you have to go into the bathroom stall to weep quietly and take a prozac before -

...Wait, what was I talking about?

Oh my. Nahne looks VERY familiar - I was once in an RP where a girl picked up a wangsty emo uke boy named Romero. Boy with a past, sexually abused, "chocolate brown eyes," the works. Eventually went so far down the Marty Stu road that he fell in love with a werewolf whom he let fuck him.

I will repeat that.

A tiny frail emo human allowed a werewolf, in werewolf form, without wolfsbane, to fuck him.

If this is the same person, it only adds to the WTFness. Especially since I once played with a Voldemort who shacked up with Arthur Weasley.

How involved do you need to be? I find myself vaguely disturbed by the implication that you'd have to give your mind and soul to the Slytherin house in order to RP Voldemort.
