Our Kind of People ...

[therealsnape]

No, I haven't turned into a Hyacinth Bouquet-fan all of a sudden. It's just that, occasionally, one realises that one's flist consists of people who have Discerning Tastes.
Our kind of people, in fact. They write excellent pairings (Snape / McGonagall) and like to read them.

So I'm using this space for the shameless promotion (let's not use that vulgar expression) of some SS/MM fic, written for the Beloved Git's 50th birthday. Which happens to be today.

I'd love to leave a link to every story individually. Unfortunately, the internet situation at Spinner's End is still not good. I'll just leave a link to the masterlist, which you will find here.

In order of appearance:

kellychambliss is a participant. That's recommendation enough, no need to gild the lily. Still, it's a marvellous story about an OC in best Kelly-style, a young American girl who wants to be a writer when she grows up. (My apologies, Miss Adela; that was tactless. You're quite grown-up already. "When she's even older", I meant). She faces the problem all of us face: to be a writer, to have a pen and paper isn't enough. One needs A Plot, or, failing that, Interesting Persons to write about. Luckily, there's the neighbours ...
It's rated PG13, but I'd like to add a warning: for those who visualise, there is a rather disturbing image involving the Giant Squid. Hints of ... well, go on and read. It's not as if anyone ever heeds my warnings.

queen_of_snapes has a lovely story on what Minerva and Severus get up to when they meet at the Three Broomsticks.

And I wrote a little something for the Birthday Boy, too. It is a one-shot, but one can read it as a sequel to Truth be Told.

Thank you for the kind words! (Adela thanks you, too, although about the squid she says, "eww, gross"). I'm happy to be one of "your kind of people."
