I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.

You know how I pimped out the 2009 Snarry Mixed Art and Fic Games yesterday? My fic has already been posted!

The Shadowless Hereafter - please heed the warnings and/or have a look at the comments posted to see if you think it's something you'll like.

The amazing tothem has translated Come Out Of The West into Hungarian for me. As well as that, she's created a matching icon and banner!

Thank you, tothem. I really appreciate the effort you've put in.

Team Dragon got together (with synn’s organisation) to thank djin7 for running the 2008 Snarry Games. My drabble was Swamp Tales (about halfway down the page). It’s got dragons and fairies :D

Also - ::pokes loupgarou1750:: - I’ve been trying to reply back to you but gmail won’t let me! For some reason it says that something is ‘undefined.’ I can get emails but can’t compose new ones. If this doesn’t fix itself up in the next day or two I’ll filter a locked post for us.

To thank joanwilder for her exemplary work as the teamdragon captain in the latest snarry_games, aqua_alta and svartalfur created thanks_capitan.

Wow, that’s a lot of coding.

My small offering is a Come Out Of The West Future Fic. Check out the rest of the offerings; they’re being unlocked by the individual authors and artists.

The third Snarry Games started a couple of days ago and my story was second off the blocks for Team Dragon.

Go have a read if you’d like to see an alternate reality Harry and Snape. No magic, but plenty of fireworks ;-)

Come Out Of The West

Now that the Snarry Holidays have finished, I can direct your attention to my gift for gryffindorj and torino10154. If you like a) Holmesian parodies, b) comedy, c) Snape/Harry with a little pinch of smut or d) all of the above, then you should enjoy The Adventure Of The Retired Auror.

Congratulations to faynia and lesyeuxverts for running the inaugural festival and a hug and a big bunch of virtual roses to joanwilder for being my beta reader.

c) no backstory is required

My entry for the snarry_games has been posted and I've received some lovely reviews. This is good (the early posting) because now I can sit back and enjoy the two stories posted every day without biting my nails. If Snarry is your thing you need to friend the comm pronto to be able to see all the fantastic fics.

Heed the warnings - it's fairly dark.

A/N: Last month, a kind person donated paid LJ time and additional icons to me. I wanted to thank them, so I said I'd write them a ficlet. The prompt they gave me was 'Snape, Harry, canned bananas and vegemite.'

It took a while but here you go, oh mystery benefactor. I hope you have some cheese on the side for this crack ;-)

Many thanks to loupgarou1750 and aliciamasters for pointing out where I could improve.
