healingmirthYeah, so am still totally drowning in Snape/Harry fic. Am looking forward to regaining normalcy this week. Maybe. Still haven't touched the 2008 Snarry Games, but I think that's best saved for another month, if not another year.
A Nick in Time by Tira Nog. There's a sequel too, which is fine and all, but I don't love it. I don't really buy into the adult Snape characterization - its a different spin, and interesting, but not one I'd want to read every day. But A Nick in Time is this beautiful and totally plausible depiction of Harry and Severus as childhood friends, a little damaged but totally devoted to each other as the best childhood friendships are.
Gladly Beyond Any Experience by Femme - and pretty much everything else she's written. A few awesome original premises (I still love you, marriage-of-convenience-and/or-forced-bonding fics!) and at least slightly darker-than-usual Harry and Snape in a romance. She's got a couple stories that place them as wounded by love, or loss/sacrifice of it, on top of the soul-crushing of war, and sometimes writes stories that are... resolved, but not done, as if they're still very much at the beginning of their journey together. Awesome.
Also! found some Harry/Draco fic that I did not hate, but seem to have misplaced it.
