Happy Daft Day, ravenna_c_tan! Recipient:ravenna_c_tan Title:The Cinnabar Sling, a story from Not Groom Lake Author:dingochow Rating: NC-17 (very) Warnings: Let's see: AU. Masturbation. Dirty talk. Wall!sex, library!sex, pickup truck!sex, outdoor!sex. Voyeurism. Very mild bondage. Just rather pervy all around. (Also, some attempts at humor.) Prompt/Summary: ravenna_c_tan wanted a story with a mature, confident Harry, angst along the road to a happy ending, intensity in the smut, and Snape's POV. She also thinks AUs are fun!(so do I …) Author's Note: Happy New Year, ravenna! Thank you so much for the prompt. This story kind of took on a life of its own, and I don't think that would have happened if I hadn't tried a Snape POV for the first time. I hope you enjoy the results. Many thanks to my faithful beta, X, who suggested several of the more rational plot points. Disclaimer: anything you recognize belongs to JKR; the rest is mine.
