Right! Obviously I cannot restrain myself to 3-400 words *facepalm*. The other three are in progress, but I wanted to get something posted. Even unbeta'ed. Is it just me or have I learned to rely too heavily on a second pair of eyes?

Warning: This set is more cohesive than the last set, and there is a definite streak of antagonism from Severus towards Lucius. So it's rather anti-Lucius/Snape and pro-Snape/Lupin and Lucius/Narcissa.

For inkgeist: Severus' Top Five Answers to "What's Your Poison?" (213 words)
( 1. The first time he heard this, visiting his maternal grandfather... )

For _lore: Five Ways Remus Lupin can wrap Severus Snape around his little finger (295 words)
( 1. The easiest way to get what he wants, of course, is to trade for sex. )

TITLE: Overnight to Dulles
PAIRING: Snape/Lucius
RATING: PG
WORDCOUNT: 1075 words
NOTES: Written for the Snape-A-Rama Instant AU Challenge, thus, AU. Also, this may as well take place in America, since I have no idea what planes and flight attendants are like anywhere else, so: Dulles is an airport near Washington, D.C. And hey, I'm less than a year late, go me!
PROMPT: Snape HATES flying. It’s a good thing Flight Attendant Lucius is so sympathetic.
PROMPT BY: LJ:elsajeni

( Just be glad I didn't title this 'Snape's on a Plane'. Though it was tempting. )
