Eleven years after the first Harry Potter book was released, io9.com* discovers there is Dumbledore slashfic.

*Admittedly, io9 hasn't been around more than a year, but COME ON.

I must confess, one of the things I love about the Ten/alt!Ten/Rose OT3 in fic is that it definitely separates the, er, men from the boys as far as one's first thought on the threesome being "OMG SHOCKING! *clutch pearls*" or "OMG YES PLZ!!! WITH A SIDE OF YES PLZ!!!"

I definitely like Misha's reaction to that question. It sort of beats the pants off of (omg again yes plz) David Tennant's "WHO PORN?!?" reaction. As hilarious as that was to behold.

The "OMG, porn?" reaction from David prompted the urge to smother him in my chest and prevent him from ever having to hear about such a repulsive thing ever again.

::blames that response on the NyQuil::

Really? Because my first reaction was "Thank god they didn't read him anything I wrote," immediately followed by, "on the off chance I ever meet this guy, HE CAN NEVER KNOW ABOUT THE PORN."

I'm sheltered -- Tennant had a "Who pr0n ZOMG?" reaction? Waaaa!

OH GOD IT WAS THE FUNNIEST THING EVER. Let me see if I can find the clip, and if not, I'll figure out something else.

ETA: Here you go. It's at about 5:36 into the clip. No one has ever been able to find the fanfic excerpts the FNP hosts quote, so the assumption is that they wrote them themselves.

Sooooo wonderful! Loved the whole thing, really -- the group therapy with the hosts was also pretty funny.

It's worth watching the whole episode, which is very funny, but if you don't have time, just watch this bit (starts about 5:10 in). FNP usually includes a prank segment, and this time, they had Tennant prank a real estate agent showing an empty flat -- Tennant, lying handcuffed on a bed in his underwear, pretends he's being held hostage by an obsessed fan.

That "Doctor Who Porn?!?" icon was made from that actual moment. It was from his second appearance on the Friday Night Project and the poor man had smutfic read aloud to him (Doctor/Martha was it? Doctor/Martha/Jack? I can't remember). He strikes me as someone very much understanding of oldschool fandom but not really quite grokking fandom in the age of the internet and all that has brought with it.

Either which way? Hilarious.

he really shouldn't venture into questions about Harry Potter online fandom, then. He might never recover. Poor sheltered yet uberhot man that he is.
