I Hate My Brain


So, I write both Final Fantasy 7 fics and Harry Potter fics, and I usually avoid certain characters in both series. Even if they sometimes hi-jack the story... I either write around the character (for FF7) or I don't write about that year (HP)... I also read both in fanfics of various sorts. Recently, Tifa Lockeheart(sp?)'s father hijacked the viewpoint for one of my stories. Now, normally that wouldn't have me railing at my brain to stop giving me ideas. It'd have me pissed at the minor character that went past his place in the fic, but it would NOT have me yelling for the brain to stop getting whacked out ideas. Then I read a HP fanfic and it mentioned the stupidest Defense Against the Dark Arts professor that Harry had to deal with, Gilderoy Lockhart. Those of you who know me, will probably immediately realize what thought ran through my brain.
That's right, at some point they had to be related, cause stupid but cunning in that manner could not POSSIBLY come from more than one family, especially with how I'm writing the father for the fic that was taken over by him.
