Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 19,224
Content/Warning(s): (highlight for spoilers) *Minor character death, natural causes*
Prompt: Wild Card #2, which turned into -- #15: Epilogue-compliant except for the presumption Snape is dead: They don't get together until Harry is divorced and has grandkids, so there's no tight jeans or smooth skin in sight. Just wrinkles and cardigans and gray hair and adorable old dudes in love. Bonus points for Snape pulling off snarky sappiness in his old age.
Summary: After the war the Wizarding World looks to Harry to give them hope. So he does. And Love, Joy, Grief, Understanding, Pain, Courage, and Strength. He makes his living giving pieces of his emotions to the world and is happy to do so, in fact. Until Severus Snape contacts him one day and asks for Redemption.
A/N: Title from the quote: “Any fool can be happy. It takes a man with a real heart to make beauty out of the stuff that makes us weep” ~ Clive Barker. Also - Harry is sixty-three in this story, and Severus is eighty-three. I hate doing math, so thought I would save all the readers the trouble of figuring that out. You’re welcome.

Summary: Harry has a new boyfriend but Harry’s Familiar isn’t too fond of him. To what lengths will Severus go as he seeks Familiar approval?
A/N: Thanks to L, who agreed to beta this at the last minute.

Prompt: It's amazing how you can see what you have once you lose it...Severus almost had Potter but someone else got in the way, and now his boy doesn't have the same light in his eyes as he used to. Nothing is going to stop him from putting it back — not magic, not some pesky law. He can see how submissive the boy really is and Potter will be completely his.
Summary: Severus Snape created the perfect submissive: beautiful, responsive, obedient to a fault. Harry Potter was everything Snape never knew he wanted—until the day Lucius Malfoy snatched him up with a snap of his fingers. Now the light was fading from Potter's eyes, but Snape wasn't certain he wanted to rescue Potter again.
A/N: If you enjoyed this story even a little, it's because abrae spun straw into gold. She's incredible that way. :D A million thanks to the mods who organized this fest and promised the participants their weight in chocolate.

Harry is forced to come to terms with mourning for the father of his child, Severus, while living in a new world where he is alive. I’d love to see the bond between Harry and his child and how Severus copes with meeting a child that is his and yet not his.

Content/Warning(s)Enticements: (highlight for spoilers) * bootlicking, D/s, Dom!Snape/sub!Harry, iceplay, shibari, hyphephilia: arousal by touching fabrics or garments, rimming, shower sex, coming untouched, erotographomania: arousal from writing romantic or erotic letters or poems, top!Severus, bottom!Severus, dirty talk, felching, and snowballing.

Summary: See prompt.
A/N: It's kind of exciting working with this because there were two fic claims for this prompt; it'll be really fun to finally read them to see how they differed from my interpretation! Anyway, here, I imagine Harry to be wanting anxiously, almost desperately for Severus to finally be able to see him.

Summary: See prompt. That about sums it up.
A/N: Male fertility – just another thing to add to my list of 'researched for fanfiction.' I wouldn't have finished this without my wonderful cheerleader "S". And, a huge thank you to my beta, who is not only awesome, but did the last couple parts super fast for me. Love you both soooooo much. Guh!

Rating: PG to R
Media: Markers on paper, ballpoint pens on paper
Content/Warning(s): (highlight for spoilers) *Nudity, Top/Bottom!Harry and Top/Bottom!Snape...Might have some hint of implied Mpreg, not non-con or dub-con (Please see A/N #2)*
Prompt: 2012 Prompt: #56: For whatever reason (creature inheritance/potions accident) Snape is somehow forced into displaying animalistic behavior and characteristics (any/all of the following: snarling; sniffing; scent-marking or biting; other claiming acts; territoriality; predatory stalking; cuffing; dominance; forcing the partner's neck down; claws and other features; knotting) where he is territorial and possessive. First time or established relationship.
Summary: The Prince family has a secret, when they find their mate and are ready to have offspring, their creature inheritance will make them rather animalistic...Sadly (or luckily?) both Headmaster Snape and his lover, Professor Potter, didn't know this secret. One morning, Harry found his lover acting rather strangely (Severus began grooming his hair for no reason). He tried asking for help from his friends and fellow professors to see why Severus was acting this way, but appears his interactions with other people make Severus even more possessive of him.
A/N: 1. First I want to thanks both accioslash and torino10154, I was having a very hard time working on this prompt, and they were kind enough to wait for me till the last minute...Thank you! And I hope everyone enjoys these drawings. I was going to write some sentences for each drawing, but I am not that good with writing, so maybe your imagination will fill the gaps better than my words. :) 2. For some viewers the sex scenes might looks a bit non-con or dub-con, but Snape in these is just showing his more passionate, possessive side, and Harry doesn’t mind at all. Because Snape doesn’t like to display his affection to Harry in public, Harry found it rather endearing, even it is a bit strange… XD

Prompt: Wild Card #2, which turned into #43: Established relationship. Harry comes down with a life-threatening illness. Severus must seek out Petunia (and/or Dudley) as Harry's closest blood relative for a blood transfusion/bone marrow transplant/Wizarding illness cure/etc as it's the one chance he has to save Harry.
Summary: Just because you know somebody doesn’t mean you know them. Especially when it comes to family.
A/N: So much love to my girls for the idea-hashing and proofing, especially the lovely one willing to let me call her “my substitute Shan” *grin* I can’t even. Also, each time there is a page break, the perspective shifts from Petunia to Severus. Just a heads up.

Prompt/Summary: #162: Outsider POV: Possibly Hermione or anyone's take on a Snarry relationship which develops whilst they're still at Hogwarts (either HBP or going off-canon).
A/N: I took some huge liberties with the prompt. I prefer to write Harry & Severus's relationship after Harry becomes an adult, so I pushed beyond canon. The title comes from a W. H. Auden poem.
