SS/HG [[shipper]]s are often distanced from the rest of HP fandom. Snape in SS/HG stories is often portrayed as a romantic hero, with his characterisation being further from [[canon]] than in, say, much [[Snape/Harry]] fanfiction. This comes in from some mockery from other sectors of fandom; for example, the [[Fandom Wank]] wiki describes [[WIKTT]], the pairing's main Yahoo list, as the ''Historic home of non-greasy, aristocratic, and secretly handsome Snape-in-Armani...''<ref>[http://wiki.fandomwank.com/index.php/WIKTT Fandom Wank Wiki: WIKTT] (accessed 11 September 2012)</ref>

SS/HG shippers tend to be in opposition to the canonical pairing for Hermione, [[Ron/Hermione]], with [[Ron Weasley|Ron]] often being portrayed negatively, or at least as an unsuitable partner for Hermione. The teacher–pupil relationship can be a barrier to some fans, and many SS/HG stories involve an adult Hermione; other fans see it as a turn on. Many stories are super-long epics, perhaps reflecting the work necessary to get the pair together realistically.
