The Lupus constellation for wolves and stars, daffodils, fairies, pomegranates, night, the moon (or its light :) )... lore, your interests list had so many cool things on it that it was impossible to not have ideas :). Happy birthday! Hope it's a fabulous one :).

I've got something else to post later, but I wanted to start with some Halloween themed music just to offer something different. :D

Fandom/Pairing: HP, Lupin/Snape, with appearances by swinging Alice and Frank Longbottom
Rating: NC17
WC: ~2200
Warning: Contains disco and public risqueness. Also is unbetaed, feel free to point out typos.
Note: This was actually written last year. lore kept me up until, what, five in the morning? Egging me on. But I never let her read it, because she was late on a fic, and I was feeling all stern and stuff. But as I've drifted out of the HP fandom, I realized it never got posted. So, um. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, lore!
