The Lupin/Snape Lurve Community

There are so many wonderful snupin stories and pictures it is really difficult to select just a few. I'm going to focus on two authors who seem to me to exemplify the best of snupin, and also two recently posted/completed stories you might not have had the chance to read yet.

Ironically, I was the Crack_Broom flier for Snape/Lupin in August. To close out our reccing special event, I thought I'd link my recs here. Instead of boring you with full re-posts, I'll just add the links with a few words. I tried to pull off a "retro" theme to go with our Retro Fest, but I'm not sure how successful I was. Full commentaries are over at the CB.

(PS, the queue for Snape/Lupin reccers is getting short. If you liked having a taste of reccing and want to try 4 in a month, you can sign up for reccing Snape/Lupin at the Crack Broom here)

Recs 'o the month, some of which you saw here already, but what the heck, here's my take on them:

• In Clothes A Wantonness by Scribbulus_Ink - Hit 'em with the long and plotty right off!



• Whiskey in the Night by Daylyn - Then back away, give them something shorter...



• Early Morning Music by Kinky_Kneazle - Give them something really different when they trust you...



• Recovery Position by Undun - And wrap it up with more long, plotty and fresh!



• 'Untouched' Art by Omni_Sama - Don't forget to pimp some BLU art...



• 'The Awakening: Blood Rites' Art by KC - ...on the way out the door.

It was inspiring to see a month of recs. Thank you, especially our newbies and lurkers, for taking on the challenge! Remember, you can make recs on the community at any time, so there's no reason for the fun to end. Both the IJ and LJ communities have a "recs" tag for you to use. And if anyone wants to do weekly recs as a feature on the community, please jump right on in!

love, lore

I am so sorry I'm late for the Retro Fest. I fell asleep last night, and when I woke up, this was the first thing in my mind. AND. It was such a bitch to code.

Title: A Tale of One Two Three Boys
Artist: osmalic
Rating: R for one NSFW art
Characters: Snape/Lupin, Peter
Challenge: Retro Fest!
Warnings: Peter and Remus friendship, and a bit of drama. Warning for bad sketches! *lol* Also: NOT DIAL-UP FRIENDLY.
Notes: Unbeta'ed. Fic + art. Sketchy art is sketchy. I apologize for the lack of quality art! :( (and since it's my first time coding using Rich Text Editor, beware some stray codes!)

Summary: this is a tale of three boys
