This is interesting. I've never heard of it and I majored in English. Apparently, it's a literary criticism.

Yes, I did write another extremely outrageous Dramione comedy fic!

Probabilities / 4 chapters / forced proximity rom-com

Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy are cursed. Probably. Maybe.

All Hermione knows for certain is that he keeps sticking his pointy nose and other body parts where they aren't welcome: like into her dating life, and under her skin, literally.

Meanwhile, all Draco knows for certain is that in all his fantasies of getting into her knickers, he never imagined it happening like that.

A twist of fate, a statistical anomaly, or a sex curse: whatever the cause, there's (probably) just one solution.

(In which Hermione and Draco Apparate into one another, repeatedly.)

“I hate idiot plots!” I say as I write a plot with an inciting incident that relies on characters assuming things are fine and disregarding small details that would have otherwise been neon signs had they taken a minute longer to think or ask the right question.

I myself have been guilty of labeling stories as "idiot plots" to insult them, and indeed, stories that treat their characters' intelligence inconsistently are usually bad. But I must implore you to look for purposeful idiot plots! When it's done right, when it's done thoughtfully, there is nothing more hilarious and tragic than watching a whole mass of idiots thoroughly ruin the lives of themselves and everybody else.

Dialogue prompt

"I don’t think it’s smart for you to base all your battle strategies only on explosions."

"I’m everything but smart." *explosives noises.*

So this basically explains everything happening in the US right now.
