Equal parts: humor, sensuality, adventure, and mystery. My answer to the codpiece challenge on Wiktt. HG/SS (Rating for later chapters).

A Good Day

by a_bees_buzz

If Severus survives the war (assuming that the good guys will win), in the immediate aftermath his life will be hell. Oh, he may be pardoned eventually, or even exonerated. He might manage to hide out until the charges are dropped. But there are going to be rough times. Nothing he can't handle; his life has always been pretty miserable. But. What if there aren't? How would Severus Snape respond to a world in which things go his way?

Epithalamium

by Squibstress

It's 1943, and both the wizarding and Muggle worlds have exploded into war.  Eighteen-year-old Minerva McGonagall is brilliant and talented, with dreams of becoming the first witch in the Auror corps. Albus Dumbledore is famous, powerful, and haunted by his dark past. Their attraction to one another is unthinkable, inevitable, and dangerous, especially with Tom Riddle watching from the shadows.

As their paths cross again and again, their lives change in ways neither anticipates, and they find they must confront the man who will become the greatest threat the wizarding world has ever known.

Warning: Teacher/student (of age)

A couple of short drabbles just for grownups. These were conceived as part of Chapter 27 of my fic, HP and the Heirs of Slytherin. Sadly, they are just not right for my 9-year-old and had to be kept separate from the main story. Those of you that are reading Heirs might enjoy a chuckle or two.
