Couple of genfic recs:
-----
Sev and Sirius' Excellent Adventure by (as yet anonymous, in
springtime_gen)
(Sirius, Severus, Hagrid, PG-13, 8000 words)
Author's summary: Severus and Sirius are assigned a joint detention in the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid. Only it turns out they're not in Kansas any more.
My comment: *giggles at the title* Somehow, I don't think Severus and Sirius are that into "being excellent to each other" and "partying on, dudes". (Now having visions of "Sirius O. Black, Esq." and "Sev 'Snivellus' Snape"... oh my. Keanu Reeves as Snape. I think my brain just melted. ...Whhhoa.)
(from here, kinda spoilery with quotes; highlight to read)
"So what about this chap then?" Sirius asked, pointing at the soldier. "Is he one of the good guys or the bad guys?"
Severus regarded Sirius with a half-pitying look. "Not everything is so black-and-white. But if you must have your world compartmentalized into neat little boxes, then if he's with Guillaume -- William -- he's on the side that wins."
I like what this says about the difference between Severus and Sirius's mindsets, and how you had Severus put it. Being on the side that wins - it sounds rightly Slytherin.
"Mary Shelley. A pleasure." She held out one hand, fingers curved down. "I was just taking some air. The men will go on so late." [...] "Are you with Lord Byron's party?"
... Oh dear.
I like that Severus figured out what was really going on :) I do wonder, though, where he learned his Franklin..."

Spinner's End by chudleycannonsnumber1
(Trio, K+/PG, 2280 words)
Author's summary: This is a short oneshot where the Trio is assigned to clean out Snape's house. A little Snape tribute set after the Battle because I had to do something other than TOG.
My comment: "Nice missing scene. It would have helped if something like this were in before the Epilogue. I love the book title 'Somewhat Forgivable Curses' (I LOLed) and the idea about a possible something Arithmancy could actually be used for (calculations on charms that change space)."
It was small and cramped, chiefly due to the bookcases that covered every inch of the walls. Ron whistled impressively, rotating on the spot, his eyes roving over the brown and black leather-bound books.
"How'd you two never get along?" said Ron, smirking at Hermione, who was scanning the room in similar fashion.

I think people have been doing better than usual lately, because it's taken me a while for me to build up even this many, and this only a half batch. (A full batch would be 10; I settled on that as a kind of standard to stop me building up huge pools of way-too-many, and now... this?)
Disclaimer: Do not take too seriously. I am not necessarily saying the fics in question are bad ones, but they had something in their summaries that I found goofy, misused, or amusing in some other way. Sometimes the fics are horrible, but most frequently they're simply mediocre, and occasionally there's a perfectly good one that just had a funny slip-up in the summary.
-----
Hermione is a cheaufur's daughter who is in love with the young son of the wealthy family they serve. A re-telling of the 1950's movie 'Sabrina' with your favorite Harry Potter charaters
cheaufur n. Someone who wears a plush suit in the design of a car-driving manservant.
-----
(The entire summary. This one's not bad, but I was too amused by this idea.)
Another fragment of Snape.
Awesome! I've almost got the whole set. Better start making that Sticking Solution to assemble them with...
( Bonus crack!ficlets at the end of this one. )

Jul. 31st, 2008 04:12 pmAnd just for larfs, here's two abandoned HP art memes, because, you know, I can't stinkin' draw.
Silvercresent11's meme:
( some slightly large pictures )
uppuN's meme:
( one more )
The "ahem" is because "which" was misspelled as "wich" in the original. A lot of people just scribbled in the "h". I did something a little more involved, as you can see.

Deathly Hallows redux, Chapter 27-28
Feb. 21st, 2008 02:25 am“The locket tried to choke me when I got near the sword, remember? The bit of soul inside could sense it. Hermione, could you make me float around the room? We could see if any of the cups react to the sword.”
But Hermione shook her head. “Wingardium Leviosa isn’t meant for very heavy objects, Harry. I doubt I could keep you up for very long.”
“What about this?” said Ron, waving his wand at Harry. “Levicorpus!”
Harry was instantly hoisted into the air by an ankle. He felt the blood rushing to his scalp, and his glasses nearly slid off his nose. “Thanks for the warning!” he shouted down to Ron in cross voice.
“Sorry,” said Ron, suppressing a grin. “But I did owe you.”
*snerk* ...aaaahahahaha! That's great.
-----
“Harry, yer gonna think I’m crazy but I can’t help thinkin’ maybe Snape’s still on our side after all.”
“WHAT!” Harry shouted. The Welsh Green looked up curiously and Harry quickly lowered his voice. “You can’t be serious. He killed Dumbledore. I saw it.”
“I know, I know,” said Hagrid, holding up one hand in supplication. “But after the fall term began I just started thinkin’…Dumbledore always said that the two people he trusted most were me an’ Snape. And that I had to trust Snape no matter what. No matter what.” Hagrid emphasized. “Yeh know Dumbledore had that black hand all year long, maybe…maybe he was dyin’ already and told Snape ter finish the job. Yeh know, ter keep up his cover.”
Harry bristled at this suggestion – or perhaps it was the knowledge that he was at best third on Dumbledore’s trustworthy list.
*blink* *shifty eyes* *nose crinkle* AHAHAHAHA! Pure Harry. ;)
So, basically,
va32h continues to win.

Hermione set the cauldron down and unpacked it. She knelt on the ground and flipped through the little potions book until she found the correct page. If Hermione was at all nervous or unsure, she hid it well. Her tone and actions were as businesslike and brisk as if she were back in Slughorn’s dungeon, mixing up a class assignment.
This is them mixing up an Annihilation Potion as a way to destroy the Horcrux-cup since their sword appears to be fresh out of basilisk venom. My first thought?
This is no time to be following a standard published recipe! Where's a certain copy of Advanced Potion-Making when you need it??
...yeah, well, I got problems. ;)

Oct. 10th, 2007 12:01 amI made a heck of a lot of lolpotters this last weekend. I'll spare you the complete set (you can look at the gallery if you're interested), but here's a few choice ones. xposted to
