The author has been reminded that not everyone will be familiar with the original source material, both fannish and otherwise, that inspired this story. The title and the premise come from a classic Star Trek, The Original Series story, called "Visit to a Weird Planet", which in turn was based on a Gore Vidal play called, "Visit to a Small Planet." The author apologizes for any confusion.

Title: Seen in Each Other's Company
Author: entrenous88
Giftee: thescarletwoman
Word Count: 7,606 words.
Rating: PG-13
Pairing: Severus Snape/Harry Potter
Warnings: Overuse of truffled quail eggs and smoked trout canapés.
Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended.
Summary: Severus Snape will put up with a great deal to receive his Order of Merlin -- even attend a seemingly endless series of Ministry galas and dinners in the company of Harry Potter.
Author's Notes: thescarletwoman, I took your prompt of "what happened after the Shack and the final battle" as the basis for this fic. My take is very likely far more humorous than the response other fanfic writers might create. Still, I really hope you enjoy this fic. I worked to honor your wish to have plot take a prominent place, so I hope you find the situation in which Severus finds himself compelling. Thank you to those who looked at earlier drafts of this story, and to those who provided helpful beta input. All mistakes remain my own.

Title: Hard Lessons
Author: ravenna_c_tan
Giftee: darkladyvamp
Word Count: 4200
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Snape/Harry
Warnings: Consensual BDSM (specifically blindfolds, bondage, flogging, corporal punishment)
Disclaimer: Non-commercial fanfic.
Summary: Harry never did master Occlumency, and Severus fears he is the only one who dares teach Harry the truly hard lessons.
Author's Notes: darkladyvamp said "I don’t mind angst, as long as the ending is happy. As for kinks, BDSM, is my main one. I’m not particular to whether it’s DH compliant, but again, happy ending is all I really need, for our boys. I’d like Severus to be IC as much as possible, Harry as well," and suggested "Severus taking advantage of Harry’s crush on the Half-Blood Prince." A lovely suggestion, my dear, here's the plot bunny that bit me in the arse the instant I saw your request! It's not DH-compliant at all because I'd say after this, book seven would have come out so very different...! Thanks to C. and L. for the beta-reads. Many pieces of dialogue come directly from Half-Book Prince.

Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Snape/Harry
Warnings: creature!fic, AU, bad poetry, corny title
Disclaimer: Harry, Hermione, and Ron in this fic have completed their final year at Hogwarts and are of age. Anime-style art has a tendency to make people appear younger, so I wanted to include the disclaimer. Also, the characters aren't mine and I'm making no money from them, I just like to play in the sandbox JK made.
Summary: It isn't enough that Harry is the Boy Who Lived, he also has to be the Boy Who Grew Wings.

Giftee: regasssa
Word Count: 5,961
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Just Snape/Harry
Warnings: Snape's alive, so it's AU so far, but that's a given for this fest! Moment of dub-con.

Summary: If Snape is the solution to Harry's problem, does Snape have a problem, and would Harry want to be the solution?

Title: Great Liars, Great Magicians
Author: loupgarou1750
Giftee: inoru_no_hoshi
Word Count: 24k +/-
Rating: (hard) R
Pairing: Snape/Harry
Genre(s): AU/AR (AR, I think), Forced-bonding, Humour, Angst (mild)
Warnings: *chan (15-16), mpreg, BDSM, cross-dressing, humiliation, toe-licking*
Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended.
Summary: Dumbledore forces Harry to bond with Snape, who demands an heir, but when Harry announces his pregnancy, Snape doesn't believe him. The road to hell may be paved with good intentions, but the path to love is strewn with sex, lies, and manipulations.
Author's Notes: inoru_no_hoshi, you requested genderbending, cross-dressing, BDSM, plot, smut, snarky!Snape, chan, forced-bonding, AU/AR, mpreg, and creature!fic. I never thought I’d write mpreg or cross-dressing, but I wanted to hit as many of your kinks/likes as I could (alas, creature!fic was sacrificed to the gods of [marginally] coherent plot.) I hope I’ve done justice to your requests.
Huge thanks to my betas, A, R, and Hairy-nosed Wombat. Also *deep bow* much thanks to the mods for your great patience.

Title: Vanquished
Author: regasssa
Giftee: eriador117
Word Count: 20197
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Severus Snape/Harry Potter, (Gilderoy Lockhart/Harry Potter), hints of Ron/Hermione, previous Harry/Ginny and implied Greyback/OCs
Warnings: (CHAN, NON-CON, TORTURE, hand jobs, blow jobs, spanking - see Author's Notes), biting, sensory deprivation, consensual D/s, penetration, rimming, desk!sex, hurt/comfort, first time, abuse of furniture and misuse of ink, slight Ginny bashing (I've been unreasonably honest to the stereotype of British teenaged girls), EWE?!.
Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended.
Summary: As an Auror, it's Harry's job to bring in criminals like Fenrir Greyback. He doesn't let his personal life affect in his work. But when his work becomes uncomfortably involved in his personal life, Harry has to face his own fears before they consume him.
Author's Notes: Important note: this fiction contains R rated, noncon Gilderoy/Harry where Harry is only 12 years old. In regards to Fenrir Greyback, it also strongly implies the torture and murder of children. It is, I hope, delicately covered, but will no doubt squick some readers. Please consider this content before you read.

Disclaimer: All Harry Potter characters herein are the property of J.K. Rowling and Bloomsbury/Scholastic. No copyright infringement is intended.
Summary: Harry suffers silently from a hidden love for Snape. He's prepared to take his secret to the grave, but a mysterious Christmas gift changes everything.
Author's Notes: My attempt at humor with a touch of romance. I hope you like it, oni_butterfly! I tried to tone down my Snape but he kept being a bastard, so I just let him do whatever he wanted. I have the sinking feeling that he would enjoy making Harry cry (only to kiss his tears away afterwards, of course). My eternal gratitude goes to Sarah, my beta, for putting up with my foolishness, and to the mods for their patience. ^_^
