Not sure if I really have an idea forming in my head or not, but --

If you know of or have some favorite fic which really has an "oldskool" flavor, which somehow says that thing about the zeitgeist of post-PoA or post-GoF or post-OotP or post-HBP or just-pre-DH --

And yes, of course the canon facts and fanon assumptions implemented do tend to distinguish, but though I don't wish to present myself as knowledgeable, yet somehow, there's this "flavor" of certain older fics (I've been reading a few selections of old Snack and old waves of Severus Snape Fuh-Q-Fest lately) --

Yeah, I'm partly just curious and partly may have an ulterior motive, so feel free to link things which are not Snape-related (like old Harry/Draco). Context for just when [X] was written will be helpful if not immediately apparent from the link.

I assume you want something that is not too long. Do you have a limit on word count that you prefer?

[arcanetrivia]

I'm not intending to actually read every word, more to skim through as exploration of an idea, so longer than I would usually want is ok, but probably nothing longer than 200k.

gotcha. If I find anything I think would meet the bill I'll send you the link.
