Title: The Secret of Seeing Rightly
Author: quill_lumos
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 25,700ish
Warning(s): (highlight for spoilers) *None. Harry is eighteen.*
Prompt: #155 - Good old-fashioned hurt/comfort fic, where either one is hurt and the other one takes care of him and they fall in love in the process.
Summary: Severus Snape can cope alone no-longer, he needs help. At the end of his energies he forces a bond on the one person who might be able to help him – Harry Potter.
A/N: I have wanted to write this story for quite a long time so thanks to whoever set the prompt which inspired me to finally get it done. It is a clichéd forced bond, whereby one of the boys has to take care of the other during an illness and is woven around themes from The Little Prince – by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
I don’t think that you need to know the story of The Little Prince in order to read this, but should you wish to the link is here: http://www.odaha.com/littleprince.php?f=English
Thank you so much to my darling betas. pansiesaremyfavourites and veridianvelvet, you know who you really are, ladies and how much I love you both. Any remaining mistakes are my own.
Thanks also to our wonderful mods for coming up with the idea of this fest, allowing me an extension on this fic and being so wonderfully supportive.

Title: Dear Diary...
Author: bethbethbeth/Beth H.
Other pairings/threesome: Nothing beyond the vaguest of mentions of other pairings.
Rating: PG-13, for smutty implications (only), and a bit of a shelling from the f-bomb.
Word count: 5,600
Warning(s): (highlight for spoilers) *None (unless warnings are what lure you into reading a story, in which case, consider yourself warned for everything!)*
Prompt: Another romance-comedy plot -- a very impulsive early-teens Lily develops a big-time crush on Snape. Harry plays the heavy parent who comes between them, only to develop a big-time crush of his own.
Summary: "It was possible that Harry Potter had done too good a job of rehabilitating the reputation of Severus Snape."
A/N: I solemnly swear that Snape shows up in this story eventually. And fyi: maybe someday there'll be a revision of this story that includes actual smut and associated hi-jinks, but...today is not that day.
