[FIC] The Conjugal State - Snape/Filch [NC-17] by Mystery Author.

I'm usually not this amenable to forced-bonding fics. Too easy to me. Half the fun is getting there, y/y? But every now and again, someone puts a new spin on an old trope, and I cave like a kid's sandcastle washed out by a high tide.

On Albus's insistence, Snape agrees to the Juris Vestae, a binding ritual in which Snape is bound to Albus by loyalty. Only things go horribly awry and Snape finds himself married to Filch. Why, you ask? Because Dumbles fucking boo-booed and doesn't own up to his mistake.

Pitch perfect characterisations for both Snape and Filch, and I am oddly amused by Filch's desire to follow the advice of a magical marriage self-help guru, who's somewhat of a June Cleaver-ish extremist, to please Severus. There's plenty of laughs and charming anecdotes, and because the Snape/Filch cache of writers is so small and distinctive, I have an inkling as to the author. Positively loved this!

[ART] Post-Coital - Snape/Viktor [PG-13] by Mystery Artist.

Hey, Snape/Filch is oddly charming! Glad I could seduce you to the Dark Side, Shiv. *g*

You know what I have yet to see? Lucius/Viktor. I'd be all over that.

Oh tht sounds like a death eater initiation fic to me, or blackmail so Krum doesn't have to be initiated...

Either way sounds lovely to me!

*raises hand* Post-DH Lucius/Viktor? (Cissy is too awesome for this party, anyway; let's find her a handsome Muggle Duke or something.) It can be a building-a-brave-new-world fic. With hurt/comfort. And Quidditch. And sweating and smoking and noses.

Great recs! That Snape/Filch is on my list of Beholder recs, too (whenever I get to it). I hate that Beholder is coming to an end. (I have an author guess for that fic, but I've already been wrong twice in my Beholder guesses, so I don't trust myself.)

And the Krum/Snape -- yep, you said it.

I have a similar Snuna recs list in progress. I noticed you recced that incredibly awesome psychedelic art piece. I flailed over that for like an hour the other day. Too much to do and too little hours to the day. Hopefully, I can get the Snuna recs out tomorrow. I don't even really like that pairing, but everything I opened was just brilliant.

HOGOD, and Snape/Viktor? YES, PLEASE. *emphatic nod*

My experience exactly. I don't like Snape/Luna -- so why have I loved every story I've read in the pairing? /g/ (Admittedly only four so far, but still...pretty high odds).

I've only read two, but they're both in my reccing queue. What four have you read?

I thought there were four, but when I went back to look, it's only three. From last year's exchange, I read Miss Morland's The Importance of Pets and Paintings (http://community.livejournal.com/snuna_exchange/16298.html) and her gift fic As To a Portrait Gently Drawn (http://community.livejournal.com/snuna_exchange/10879.html) (can you tell whose recs I follow? /g/) And in this year's exchange, so far I've read the first story posted -- "To Ride the Rising Sun."

*nod* The Snuna fest is brimming with awesomeness. There are so many amazing works, it's just flail-worthy.

I normally hate the whole notion of forced-bonding fics, but somehow this one...was just right? (Teaches me to have such hard and fast objections.) The fact that it was Dumbledore's mistake causing Snape discomfort yet again just made the whole thing that much better. M.

I know, right? It seems we both have hard and fast objections we need to lose, Maggie. But yes, Dumbles having made the mistake made it absolutely priceless to me. *g*

It probably doesn't hurt that those beautiful hands are holding a cigarette either. I have a huuuge smoking fetish.

Hey, have you done any more on your Snape/Draco serial? God, that was so fabulous <3 <3 <3
