Oh my god you guys. This person seriously needs to chill.


As you can see, these are reviews (comments) left on Summer Shade. That fic is 17 years old at this point, and clearly says right at the top in the author's note:
1. It was written for a Severus/Lily-specific exchange (less_for_you) and gives the prompt I was trying to fulfill, which includes "what-if scenario".
2. Acknowledges that it presupposes an AU from canon.

And they go and lead off with "I don't think the premise is realistic". LMAO. I think you have come to the wrong place, buddy. They then go on for almost 2500 words (half the length of the fic itself!) about how James abused Snape (as if I didn't know) and Lily was an awful friend ("sociopathically sadistic monster", even, as you can see in the screenshot). Are they seriously still doing this kind of Snape discourse out there in the world? Crikey. I don't think I'm even going to read all this screed, much less approve the guest reviews.
