Other pairings/threesome: none
Rating: T
Word count: 7829
Content/Warning(s): Romance, Poetry, Calligraphy as art form, Librarian Harry Potter, Artist Harry Potter, Professor Severus Snape, References to Christianity, light angst, happy ending
Prompt: No. 036: Harry finds a journal filled with poetry about him hidden in the room of requirement. The journal continues to update with new entries. Someone has the twin journal and is in love with him while Harry falls in love with the author. What happens when the poet finally signs his name?
Summary: After an involuntary exile from the Wizarding World, Harry is now Assistant Librarian at Hogwarts and part-time artist. Who is the poet of the Hogwarts-inspired verses he is creating art for?
Beginning A/N: So. This was created on the deadest of deadlines, finished in an all-night (mara)thon [haha] on the day of submission. I hope it's not too messy...It's certainly not as well-researched as I'd like it to be, but, well. Also, it ran far, far away from the original Thon prompt, though I hope it's sufficiently in its spirit for you, dear prompter, to still like it.

Many thanks to: Klari for all your ideas, your beta work, and for allowing me to quote your Quidditch Blitz, titC, for also giving me so many ideas, and for your beta work, and Qtap and Cheerful_Clatter for your late-night betaing sessions. Torino, Thon mod, for granting me this extension, and for your endless patience and for your encouragement, and all of you who groaned and cheered through this with me. This work would never have been possible without you. For the full list of prompts this is inspired by, see end notes.

Word count: 7342
Content/Warning(s): Non-con, coercion, dark Harry Potter
Prompt: 110 Severus runs an apothecary in Diagon Alley. However, the "adults only" back room is where he makes most of his Galleons. Auror Potter is sent to investigate....
Summary: Being universally hated was nothing new for Severus, but the extreme poverty and living outside of society was hard, and each year that passed added to the burden. A strong man can take it, and Severus was strong, however, at the end of the day, even he is only human and cannot live on air and water. For some reason it has been his luck that he has always ended up on the wrong side and this was no different. Only one door was open to him - the sale of narcotic potions and finally Severus entered there. The appearance of Harry Potter, in his life brings big changes, that's for sure. Only whether for better or for worse, that is the question.

Word count: 4,030 words
Content/Warning(s): internalized fatphobia, fat kink, mentioned child abuse
Prompt: No. 42: Harry gains a lot of weight postwar and feels self-conscious about it so Snape worships his body.
Summary: Harry is self-conscious about his weight gain after the war, and Severus reassures him that he’s loved just the way he is.
A/N: This one really got away with me. I had only intended to write a quick smut scene, but it demanded I include some sort of plot. The more I wrote, the more it blossomed and, by then, the smut had become secondary. I really enjoyed the process of writing this fic! It's the second Snarry fic I've written, but the first I've published. I might go back and finish writing that one as well. I think it's a story that deserves to be told — just as much as this one is. Enjoy the fic!

Snarry-a-Thon23: FIC: Tuesdays  
Title: Tuesdays
Author: [archiveofourown.org profile] Ms_SackvilleWest
Other pairings/threesome: None
Rating: PG-13
Word count: 58,927
Content/Warning(s): Tags: Snape is a yoga teacher, Mental health, Depression, Grief, Self-discovery, Healing, Japan, Meditation, Extremely slow burn, Minor character death, No smut
Prompt: Wildcard 1 – (2019)
After the war, Harry just can’t seem to hold on to a job. Whether it's because he’s having flashbacks, or he just can’t get his mind in the right mood, or something else. But everybody around him keeps encouraging him to do at least something, since it is a Wizarding tradition to add to society, not just loaf around. Snape can’t even get a job, making him destitute. Then Harry and Snape meet, a few years after the war. What will Wizarding society think of what will happen next?
Summary: "Take this," Severus thrust the scrap of paper forward.

The boy took it, glanced at it and looked back up in annoyance. "I can't read it."

It took all of his self-control not to roll his eyes. "Of course you wouldn't. It's Japanese."

"I don't – "

"You," he held up a hand to silence Potter, "will go home and book a Portkey, or a flight, I do not care which, to Kyoto. Yes, that is in Japan. And you will not come back until you have stayed there for at least three months. Do I make myself clear?"

A post-war story of self-discovery, grief, healing, and finding one's path – in the most unexpected of places.
A/N: This is a gentle, meandering journey of self-discovery. A tale of snow falling on eaves, of birdsong in the forest, of inhaling and exhaling. Of the quiet of a yoga studio, and Harry and Severus each finding their own path.

It is not a whirlwind romance with an action-packed plot and plenty of porn. But, perhaps, it will be exactly what you are looking for.

Thank you to the mods for organising this brilliant fest, and to Arrisha for believing in me – without you, this would never have been written.

Hippocrates460 sowed the seeds to this story years ago, when they made me laugh out loud with the tags to their story 'Andrew, 38'. "One day," I thought, "I'll write a yoga-teacher-Snape story too. Because I love how, in fandom, anything is possible."

Content/Warning(s): No warnings apply
Prompt: 1. Wild card.
Summary: A long moment passes. And then he steps out of the shadows of the surrounding shops and into the bright sunlight, walking up to you.

"You came back," you say bluntly, unable to look away.

"Yeah." He shuffles his feet a bit, slips his hands in his pockets in such a familiar way that a pang of deep fondness strikes through your chest. "Last week," he adds.

It seems impossible that he would have been back in the country for days and you wouldn't have sensed it somehow. How could his presence not send shockwaves all the way to Spinner's End? How could you not know, in your heart of hearts, the instant that he returned.
A/N: Thanks to all my friends for the love and support.

Summary: The clear blue skies of the Pacific isles were initially a welcome sight but five days of clear blue skies and unrelenting heat were wearing. At least to him. Severus didn't plan to stay long enough to get used to it.
A/N: While I didn't specifically say, I have Harry at about age 25 here. He needed time to be away from the wizarding world for a bit and 19 didn't let him have that. But thank you for a fun prompt!

Prompt: 152: Severus is an Omega but has used customized suppressants to keep it a complete secret. One year when he returns to Hogwarts he starts to develop the symptoms that occur when an Omega is rebuffing a highly compatible mate, and they are only getting worse as time goes on. With his spying he can't exactly remove himself from the school, and the Alpha that's causing it can't be removed either - it's the newly presented Harry Potter.
Summary: Harry goes back to the school to finish his education and looks forward to discovering his compatible match. He read all about it but didn’t account for one element in the equation. His mate.
A/N: I had part of something similar already written, but got stuck because I couldn’t see where it would go. And then I saw this prompt, made a few adjustments and apart from the war time, I hope I did the prompt justice.

Many thanks to Amni, who made me fix some wonky wording and to sassykitten who was kind enough to give it a final onceover 😊

My huge gratitude goes to DementorDelta who helped me make this more readable and pointed out the flaws in the fic. Your feedback and suggestions were incredibly helpful, thank you for being such an amazing beta!

Prompt: Wild Card 1
Summary: A Gothic Snarry version of ‘Beauty and the Beast’, inspired by the dark and sensual tale from the Czech film version, ‘Panna a Netvor’. I follow some of the plot, but then diverge and do my own thing. Got to make it even weirder, right? An eerie, erotic, brooding, bloody, batty, haunting fairytale.

‘Underneath my skin there’s a human. Buried deep within there’s a human. Despite everything, I’m still human.’ - ‘Human’ by Daughter
A/N: This is not set in any particular time or place. Hence the poetry and literature quotes spanning several centuries. Place the dark forest and its inhabitants in any country or time that you will. Also, I take no credit for the idea of the orange Weasley tea set, hehe!

This fic takes a little inspiration from the Disney version, and also from old film versions of the fairytale, such as ‘La Belle et la Bête’, and the books illustrated by Angela Barrett and Errol Le Cain.

Thank you as always to the people who run this wonderful Fest for having me, and for all the hard work that you do!
