Nah, I understand. I don't even remember why I got into it, but it's also a very specific idea in my head. Most of the stuff out there does not correspond with my mental image of it. I tried to qualify the Draco/Ginny with a "no chance in hell" thing either. My thing is that we know less about Ginny, so it's not quite as impossible...even though they're both Never Going to Happen. I'm quite comfortable knowing that it's not going to happen, canonically speaking. However, going with the "put them in a room and see what happens"...under very special circumstances, it might. (Read: circumstances that are apparently only in my brain, and thus need coaxing in order to see the light of day.)
I mean, back in the day, I only haunted Sugar Quill, so I was mostly safe from all the shipping wars and the nonsense fandom wank--I read HQoW and After the End and enjoyed my time (wait: I do know where the idea of Draco/Ginny came from. Curse you, Arabella!). Then I came to livejournal, and started discovering all the stuff I had missed...including Draco/Hermione. And Worf/Spot. And then my brain exploded.
I think I read yours and greatly enjoyed them--I'll have to double-check though.
I know! I'm especially having trouble finding post-HBP ones where he's not evil. Gah. You'd think the Snape fans would be sticking up for him...oh, well, I found this one-shot (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3117086/1/) earlier today, and it was pretty good.
