assorted ficcage
I wrote a handful of things for fandom_stocking this year:
-----
Title:A Line So Fine Author:shyfoxling Pairing: Severus/James Genre: Eh, probably PWP. Rating: Hard R, maybe barely NC-17 Words: ~2250 Summary: According to Sirius, Lily didn't know too much about James continuing to hex Severus during their seventh year. Well, that's not all she didn't know about, and apparently James has a fetish for a certain spell of Severus's creation... Warnings/Contains: Unbetaed and unBritpicked; present tense; bloodplay.
Title:A Half-blood Princemas Author:shyfoxling Characters: Severus; walk-ons for Slughorn and a random student (OC, but he's little more than a surname) Genre: gen Rating: G Words: 692 Summary: Takes place during HBP at Slughorn's Christmas party. After a worrying conversation with Draco, Severus contemplates how this is definitely not one of his better Christmases. Warnings/Contains: Unbetaed and unBritpicked.
Title:(untitled - Playing cards) Author:shyfoxling Pairing: Severus/Lily Genre: friendship/romance Rating: PG for brief mention that boys sometimes get happy in the pants Words: 454 Summary: Just a friendly game of cards. Warnings/Contains: Unbetaed; not Britpicked although I did take the advice of hp_britglish to substitute pontoon (blackjack) for poker.
Title:To Weave Cold Starlight Author:shyfoxling Pairing: Severus/Lily Rating: PG for a few strong words Words: ~5600 Summary: Severus wants to make Lily a special gift of something she saw in a book in the library, but doesn't get the chance to until after they're both dead. It turns out to have surprising properties. Warnings/Contains: Mentions of canon deaths. Some fluff, a little angst. A few liberties taken with Latin, I'm sure. Unbetaed and unBritpicked. A/N: A bit of an homage to Textualsphinx's To Sever the Lining from a Cloud, a much angstier Severus/Lily that doesn't suffer much for being ten years old (!), and one of my favorites.
Title:For Enemies Author:shyfoxling Characters: mostly Severus; long-winded two penn'orth from Lucius; hints of (unrequited) Severus/Lily Genre: um, PAIGTISP? (Plot? Actually I Guess There Is Some Plot) Rating: hard R, maybe barely NC-17 Words: ~4300 Summary: Severus experiments with a spell he came across while revising for his O.W.L.s. Warnings/Contains: Highlight for warnings: Abuse of frogs (animal testing, not sadism), blood, self-inflicted wound (not self-harm in the usual sense), masturbation. A/N: Did he invent it or did he find it? Canon actually isn't explicit. I like both ideas; this stems from the latter. Betaed by coyotegoth and by inamac, who is largely responsible for Lucius's letter as it appears here.
