Snarry Holidays

Title: Provocation
Author: lesyeuxverts
Giftee: nenyaentwhistle
Word Count: 6900ish
Rating: R
Pairing: Severus/Harry, Ron/Hermione
Warnings: Contains DH spoilers (EWE)
Disclaimer: Nothing that you recognize belongs to me – Harry Potter and etc. belong to J.K. Rowling.
Summary: Snape was determined to find and exploit Harry's weaknesses, while Harry had vowed to be mature and ignore Snape.
AN: nenyaentwhistle requested a story where Snape was never good to begin with and a Snarry with the "classic you-always-fall-for-a-bad-boy scenario." It was a struggle to make Snape a bastard but still redeemable enough for Harry to love him … I hope this fits the bill! Happy Snholidays!

Huge thanks to my betas for their quick and wonderful work – any mistakes that remain are entirely my own.

Title:Present Imperfect
Author: stepmnster
Giftee: All participants
Word Count: 6596
Rating: R
Pairing: Snarry
Warnings: (please continue to warn for DH spoilers) epilogue compliant but not much else. A few DH spoilers thingies. A bit of light bondage and nudity. D/s. Student/teacher (chanish in some countries).
Disclaimer:Not mine! And I promise to return them…eventually!
Request: I would love something that has Harry guilty for how he left Snape for dead, how there was all this hatred bottled up against him. Where does that guilt go? How does Harry react to Snape post-war? How is Snape post-war? Whether he changes or not is up to you. I'm a big lover of plot, so go crazy with the story - I'm not all about teh sex, although that's nice, too. Hope this fits what you wanted!

Author’s note: the endearments used in this fic are Hungarian. According to my online translator they mean ‘my kitten’
