3-5 gift requests in order of priority: 1) "What-if" AU – What if Eileen had died when Severus was young, and Tobias refused to allow Severus to attend Hogwarts? While Lily did her best to teach Severus what she'd learned over the holidays, and constantly bought him books and supplies (hidden in Severus' room or at her house) so he could study on his own, Severus lives mostly as a Muggle, working at the same mill his father does. When Lily goes into hiding with James and Harry, she tells Remus about the best friend she's kept secret, and asks him to watch out for Severus while she can't. Where it goes then is up to you, mystery author. ;) All I ask for is a happy ending and a competent, confident, self-sufficient, ultra-snarky Snape.
2) Severus is puzzled when Lupin asks him to reveal to the students that he's a werewolf, but complies. As events progress, Severus finds himself getting to know the true Remus Lupin – a strong man, determined to do his part in the war, no matter the cost - not the spineless, weak Lupin Severus thought existed, or the kindly, calm Lupin most people see. I would actually prefer not to have an Alpha!Lupin or even dominant!Lupin – just two strong, determined, unique men truly getting to know one another and coming together.
4) At nineteen, Teddy decides he'd rather be a girl, and stays morphed as one. Severus, who has always been the more distant, reserved parent, surprises everyone by accepting and supporting Teddy in his decision. Remus, on the other hand, has difficulty accepting that his son is now a daughter. Family-centric fic with honest and respectful portrayal of the decision to change gender and the effects it can have. Mix of humour and angst, happy ending. Having the Potter and Weasley boys (James, Albus, Hugo, etc.) suddenly find Teddy very hot and attempting to flirt a definite bonus.
5) Fic or art prompt: A quiet moment between Severus and Remus. Consider this prompt an apology for the giant fic prompts I've given above. *g*
(Also, I've numbered them, but I truly would like to receive any of these prompts - there's not one that stands too far above the others...)
What medium you're willing to create: stories
What content you're willing to create/you'd like to receive: AU, mystery, plotty, action/adventure, romance, hurt/comfort (emphasis on comfort), historical period/remakes of literature, etc. Happy endings preferred. Post-war is usually the era I write, but I can definitely give other eras a shot.. I enjoy lots of snark and humor (though no humiliation, Severus has been through enough). I prefer adult Snupin. Tonks can be ignored or included, but I prefer her not to be vilified. Light bondage (scarves, feathers, blindfolds) rather than heavy (leather, whips, spankings). If there is sex in the fic: I prefer top!Severus or switching off; various kinks I like can be found here. Secondary pairings can be fun (Percy is love).
What content you aren't willing to create/don't want to receive: No unhappy endings, darkfic, abuse, humiliation, violence, non-resurrection-including character death for Snape/Lupin (all others fair game), breathplay, chan, incest, bestiality, non-con, rape, infidelity, no other partners for Snape or Lupin, no threesomes, adultery, exhibitionism, GS, scat. No Alpha!Lupin or dom!Lupin/sub!Snape (or vice versa)…
