Friends

I have just two - count em, TWO - more batches of caramel corn and DOBBY IS FREE!!!!!! True, nothing is baked for my own family but I never want to see another cookie again. So it's all good. ;D The marathon cookie baking is used as client gifts and the list grows each year. If anyone other than Al volunteered me for so much non-Snarry related work, I would have poisoned their tea by this point. I should have had everything out by the 6th, but instead it all has to be out by tomorrow. There's too much to do otherwise and I have been baking/icing/dipping 16 hours a day for the past eight days. I'm goofing off resting now and will finish up tonight. Then I can start buying gifts. *sigh*

And speaking of gifts - OMG, so much pretty art has come my way in the past week. There is seekrit art for the Snarry-a-Thon banner which I'm dying to show everyone now *swoons* as well as a few more Snarry pieces that should be appearing by their various creators soon. Until then, perselus drew me another Merlin piece that I can share now. It is mild, but still NWS. If you like it - and how could you not? - and you want something of your own, perselus is currently taking commissions for both original and fan art.

(  The Christmas Party )

Okay, I know I must have lost my mind. Because if I'm reading the time stamps on my last 3 posts, I've written four fics in 24 hours. !?!?!?! I've been feeling sick today and therefore unmotivated to do "real work" but... four fics??? Four pairings?? I thought I was going to write a few drabbles today, but each fic has been longer than the previous! Yes, I am nuts. However, I'm also going to sleep now. Enjoy the insanity while it lasts! :-)

Snowflake Fic #4: Hind Sight
For sra_danvers
Snape/Harry, NC-17
Word Count: 1938
Summary: A few years after the war, Snape is living on a remote mountainside alone when he gets a very unexpected visitor: Harry Potter.


I wasn't supposed to survive. I know this. I was supposed to sacrifice myself just like the boy was. Meanwhile we would be saving the lives and souls of the likes of the Malfoys. Why did it never occur to me that Dumbledore's plan ensured the life of the purebloods and the expense of all the half-bloods? I count myself surprised now that Hagrid survived as well, though perhaps his survival had less to do with Dumbledore's plans and more to do with his own resourcefulness, much like mine.

It took Potter a few years to find me. ( Read more... )

♥ for all who are contributing to adventdrabbles! *smooches*

I am trying to read about a billion fests right now, but I would like to draw your attention to a couple.
1) 3fan_holidays is a small fest run by celandineb and worth a look I think. The contributions are between 100 to 2000 words, thus it's not s big time investment, so do check them out.
2) daily_deviant's Kinky Kristmas is rocking! I am way behind, but all the fics and art I have read so far have been sizzling hot and delicious.
3) snapelyholidays is posting some fabulous stories and art, so if you have time, do stop by and check them out.

These are not the only fests worth checking out by ANY means, and if you have recs for me, please let me know. I could use some help keeping up. :)

Snowflake Fic #3: True or False Question
For winnett
Harry/Draco, NC-17
Word Count: 1800
Summary: Has Draco finally invented the potion that Harry Potter hoped that he would when he set him up in a secret, underground lab?

Draco charmed the door open with his wand in hand. No such thing as too careful, even though he knew it was Potter at the door. Potter himself set him up in this secret lab; no one else knew of its existence.

Potter, too, had his wand in hand, and his hair was even wilder than usual. His eyes, too. Draco frowned. "What's wrong?"

"Who said anything's wrong?" Potter shoved his wand into the Ministry-approved sleeve holster. "I came because I got your owl."

Draco slipped his own wand into his sleeve with a bit more grace, wondering--hoping--that perhaps it could be the proximity to Draco himself that had Potter so flustered. ( Read more... )
