FIC: The Two Magicians (Harry/Snape, PG-13, ~4,300 words)

[amanuensis1]

Oh, criminy, my snarry_games story is up!

The Two Magicians, Harry/Snape, ~4,300 words, PG-13, a postwar romance.

"So she became a full-dressed ship a-sailing on the sea / But he became a bold captain and aboard of her went he..."

Another of my ballad pastiches. Determined Harry pursues an equally determined Snape.

Go Team Dragon!

OMG I know!!!! *squeees* and it is totally gorgeous! I laughed, I Oh'd, I oooh'd and I aaaaaah'd, and pissed myself laughing at the action figures bit, because my Harry/Snape figurines sit on a speaker each next to the computer and I kept glancing at them like they might suddenly jump down. Yes, I know, time to take the pill again...

wonderful job, hun, congrats xxx

You are SO darling. May your naughty action figures fulfill all your dreams! (And I love that icon, it's cracking me up!)

[the-flic.livejournal.com]

*purrs* thankyou! I lurrve my icons :D

Oh my goodness, patronus sex. It works. I'm shocked.

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

I think I am too! The story's tone didn't want it to be more explicit (though *I* did) but, damn, there should be lots and lots of patronus sex. ^_^

Agreed! ALSO, compliments on making a new, interesting reason why Snape's was a doe. Very clever.

[amanuensis1.livejournal.com]

Hee, I won't take sole credit for that--that one was running around fandom in multiple minds, including mine, the minute book 7 was read! "Harry's Patronus is a Stag, and Snape's is a DOE? Oh, please. They are totally in love."

[persephone-blue.livejournal.com]

The idea occurred to me in some capacity, but your incorporation of it into the story was done expertly. ^^

Eee! I loved that! I loved the scenario and the action figures and the stag and doe stuff, especially. Oh, and Snape's characterization was excellents. Harry's too, especially his perserverance and fumbling about trying to get it right, but Snape really blew me away.

Also, I loved this line to little bits: The statement was dry enough to have evaporated a small lake. Hee!

Yay! :-)

Snape always gets the best freaking lines, omigod. Why can't I write an entire fic of Snape? It's like, as I said to someone else, he's the caramel swirl in the vanilla ice cream--you can't have an entire dish of just him or it isn't ice cream any more, but you want to be sure that every bite of the ice cream has a little bit of the swirl in it. Thank you SO much, dear one!

That is too, too adorable. Very creative ways of getting them in the same ... media(?). Loved it.

Snape to Harry in the last sequence: "Are we...media?"
Harry: "We might be."
Snape: "Sounds dignified."
Harry: "Fine with me."

:D Thank you so much!
