Temperance is a Virtue

So it's official: I'm on Team Cauldron for the 2009 Snarry Games! So exciting!

Support Team Cauldron - Brewing Glory!

Go Team Cauldron!!!!

So I'll be joining in the beltane festivities again this year. It was pretty fun last year, and I always love the opportunity to read Harry, Snape, and Draco in any combination that should arise.

I've been less involved in the fandom recently (new job and working on my own, original fiction), but I am still reading far too much slash for my own good. I've gotten into de-aging fics again as of late, and had some nice recs from people over on snape_potter here.

Title: Old Souls

Author's Notes: After kawanale’s prompt. I tried to stick as close as possible to it, but I had to change a few small things. Hope you enjoy! Also, thanks to my betas: my sis, Laura (Love you, hon!) and Angela Snape.

The Arrows of Love Strike Without Warning

Check out the awesome image I made on Wordle! The words that make up the word cloud are from a scene in my story for hds-beltane.

Warnings: sexual content and foul language.

The Snarry Games are over. Team Phoenix came in a very close second, and you know what? Everybody wins! All those wonderful fics I still have to read and comment on ^_^



I'll be posting my fic here soon...

The big reveal for hds_beltane was a few days ago. Here's my fic ^_^ Also, look forward to the prequel to Companions in the Dark tonight or tomorrow (just beta-ing now).

Title: For the Record
Author/Artist: yura_slash
Pairing/Threesome: Severus/Draco, Harry/Draco, and Severus/Harry/Draco (to an extent, Severus/Harry, as well)
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Explicit sex. Threesome.
Word count: 4,800
Summary: Draco tries to talk his boss into publishing Severus’ tell-all autobiography, but is unsuccessful. Instead, he finds himself working on Harry’s autobiography, and learning more about the boy-turned-man than he ever could have imagined.
A/N: Written for khateh as a part of the hds_beltane fic exchange. Request written for included H/D H/D/S or H/S. Friends become more, being forced to work together then falling for each other.

( For the Record )

Well, hd_worldcup has come to a close and the Big Reveal went up last night. It was a lot of fun, although I don't know if I'll be volunteering to be Team Captain again any time soon, and had some great fics posted. Check out gossymer's Sortable Masterlist.

My own fic, Companions in the Dark, got some good comments, which I'm happy about, but also some iffy ones. Mainly concerning length and what I didn't include. Unfortunately, I had less than 2 weeks to write because I was an alternate, and it takes me a while to write anything because I obsess over every word ^^; I focused on the prompt, which was the Death Tarot Card, pretty much exclusively, so all of the scenes revolve around it. I'm posting it here now- please let me know if you enjoy it. I may pick up the story again and tell it more from Severus' perspective, and then more from Harry's, and kind of stitch it together that way. And then maybe continue it... I haven't decided yet. It pretty much depends on whether or not I get the job I'm going in for an interview for next week :)

Title: Companions in the Dark
Author: yura_slash
Team: Fanon
Prompt: Death
Wordcount: 4,366
Rating: R
Warnings: vampiric bloodlust, minor character death (of an OMC) implied
Summary: Severus sends Draco to the only place that he can be safe.
Author’s Note: The Death card portends the destruction of a harmful attitude or belief, which is followed by renewal. I explored this meaning with the support of my Team and beta, Jamie.

( Companions in the Dark )

My snarry_games fic posted a few days ago, and it's getting good reviews! I'm so happy! ^_____^

If you'd like to read it, go to The Upper Air Burst into Life at the snarry_games. It has Snape and Harry on a boat for two weeks, and then in the Falkland Islands. It was so fun to write, let me tell you!

So you've probably noticed that the snarry_games opened just a few days ago. I'm really nervous about how my fic will be received. It's the longest thing I've ever written in the HP fandom, and also... the sex isn't til the end.

I KNOW, right? That practically never happens. I think it really surprised people when I answered my Champion Interview question the way I did.

5. What would you consider your greatest strength in writing?

hm... the sex parts? That sounds awful, but I think it's true. The sex scenes always came easiest to me, and it's only recently that I've tried really hard to create more interesting, multi-layered, longer plots.

Heh. I don't know what that says about me. Maybe that I'm repressed sexually? I don't think that's the case...

Speaking of, I am currently trying to sell off some of my yaoi, but am too attached to get rid of it all completely. I think it's a monumentally bad idea to be trying to keep it hidden during a move (especially a move into my bf's parent's house), but oh well ^^;

Yes, I am moving on Sunday. Yes, I am moving into my bf's parent's house with him. Yes, I hope it will only be a month before we get jobs in the new city and find an apartment of our own. *crosses fingers*

The hd_worldcup posting has started! Oh boy! As Team Fanon's captain and a writer for the fest, I'm totally psyched to see everything commence. Check it out!
