I'm hiding from the crowds, doing some writing and tidying, mug of cinnamon cocoa by my side...


sans foi (mais non infidèle) by stephanometra. Severus/Narcissa, Narcissa/Bella. Her Severus says to her Narcissa: “You will find, I believe, that faith is a luxury some of us can no longer afford.”

"The Architeuthis Principle" by "KathleenAnne." Snape and the Squid at Christmas.

Three Tequila by musesfool. Sirius/Remus/Hermione. Funny and sassy and hot, with all three characters knowing how to push each other's buttons. And some passages are just cute:

"I had a crush on you in third year, you know, but I thought you were gay," Hermione said. He almost stumbled when Sirius nudged him in the ribs.

"Oh, no. He just likes sex," Sirius said. "He's not too particular about how he gets it."

"You're right, I suppose," Remus replied wryly. "I let you get a leg over, didn't I?"

"Oi! Best thing that ever happened to you, I am." But Sirius smiled as he said it.

"Why is he talking like Yoda?" Hermione asked, brow furrowing adorably.

Four Truths and a Lie by florahart. Harry/Hermione/Ron/Luna/Neville. Do not have any beverages near your person or keyboard while reading this one.

"One. [Hermione] has entertained many lascivious thoughts regarding Severus Snape whilst touching herself privately, as well as whilst in class."

Ron groaned a heartfelt ewwwww and Neville turned a somewhat startling shade of purple while Luna merely nodded thoughtfully and observed, "The Horpflinks believe greasy hair is a sign of potent virility, you know. And Horpflink women do tend to be quite satisfied, sexually. Go on."

The Great Hogwarts Christmas Gift Exchange Debacle of 1996 by snegurochka_lee. Snupin and others.

Not What It's Cracked Up to Be by bucketofribs. Snape/coffee mug.
