I actually had time to read some of the Snarry Swap stories the past week at
snape_potter and the following are some of the stories I thought were exceptional, in my
warm and fuzzy world opinion:
FicRebuilding Severus DW
Rating: NC-17
Word count: Approx. 11,400
Warning(s): None
Summary: Harry is assigned to rebuild Hogwarts, and ends up rebuilding Severus, too.
I love Harry in this, smart, determined, and sure, yet still needy – and Severus who secretly lusts after what he thinks he can never have. It's a winner!Hints from Severus DW
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 21,000
Warning(s): *
Naughtiness with women's lingerie and marking behavior (but no watersports). Exhibitionism. *
Hints from Heloise, Snarry style! This is hilarious and smoking hot!Mists of Time IJ
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 9,300
Warning(s): (highlight for spoilers)>*
Blowjob, sex magic, anal sex, hint of MPreg. *
Summary: Mayhem seems to follow Harry Potter, no matter which department of the Ministry he works in.
I love magical theory and this fic delivers that in spades! A wonderful story that weaves different types of magic, with romance, and smoking smexing.A New Leaf, a New Page, and the Beginning of Always DW
Other pairings/threesome: Brief mentions of other pairings.
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 14,928
Warning(s): None
Summary: I used the provided plot scenario: As part of his New Year resolutions, Harry vows to turn over a new leaf, let go of old grudges. When Snape shows up at the Burrow as their First Footer, Harry takes that as a sign to see what kind of relationship he can have with Severus. How does Severus react?
A slow building story that is well done, and scorching when they get there. There's a touch of angst, but only enough to make the ending sweeter!Without You, I'm NothingRating: R
Word count: 11,600
Warning(s): ): (highlight for spoilers)>*
Idiotic Ministry, implied mpreg, mention of miscarriage off-screen, state-sanctioned homophobia, marriage law/bonding.*
Summary: Fudge is back in power along with Dolores Umbridge. Their new marriage laws are Draconian. Snape and Harry help each other out - by getting married.
Forced bonding is one of my favorites and this is well thought out with lovely smut!ArtWarmnessRating: R
Warning(s): (highlight for spoilers)>*
Harry may look a bit young, but he is 18.*
Summary: Harry came back to Hogwarts to finish his schooling, and fell in love with Headmaster Snape
I love the simplicity and the clean, bold lines! Delicious nakedness!SoggiornoRating: G
Warning(s): None
Summary: Hurt/comfort. For Severus Snape, the company of others was always transient, only as long-lasting as his own usefulness. Until, of course, he fell in love with Harry Potter, The Boy Who Stayed.
Simply gorgeous and heartwarming!Go and take a look/read some of the wonderful stories that have been posted! Love the creators a little love while you're there!
Thanks!
