Title: At Peace // Like I Belong Again
Rating: G
Pairing: Severus Snape/Firenze
Medium: Pencils + collage + digital editing
Warnings (Highlight to View):  *None*.
Summary:  In moments like these, they feel like home - like all their missing pieces fit together again.
Artist's Notes: I was very surprised to see that there aren't many fanarts (or fics!) out there featuring Firenze (with a delicious exception for the twice lovely "A Fish May Marry A Bird"). I have tried to express what the characters mean to me (their past, present, personality...), and drawing Firenze has been very fun!  It's the first time I make a fanart this complex, so I really hope you'll like it, dear sealcat! :)

Word Count: 4,857
Warnings: Minor, for one part of it (Rubeus is 16 in that section).
Category: Romance, first time, hurt/comfort, friendship.
Disclaimer: Harry Potter belongs to J.K. Rowling, not to me. I made no money by writing this.

Title: A Fish May Marry a Bird
Rating: NC-17
Pairings: Severus Snape/Firenze
Word Count: 8,800
Warnings:comedic wanking, oral, slash, sex between different orders of Magical Brethren, serious money shot and, also, this is very, very dirty.
Summary: Snape discovers an unrecognized area of erotic interest.
Author's/Artist's Notes: Many thanks to H, for reading and picking, and to D, who beat and kicked this so thoroughly -- despite finding a previously unknown area of squickedness -- that I took all her suggestions and improved it by 38%.
Bloopfish, the "pretty"and the "ugly"were reversed here by necessity, but I hope to good effect. I couldn't do Harry, either, sorry. And the kinks are all mine. Oh, forget it, don't even read it.
