Title: Passage of Time. Archive: Please ask permission. Feedback: If you so desire. Rating: PG-13 Warnings: Crossover-ish. Alludes to both het and slash pairings. (Snape/Lucius, Snape/Annabelle Chase, Snape/Phedre no Delaunay). Frighteningly cute. Character death mentioned in passing. Disclaimer: None of these characters are mine. Summary: An AU of an AU. An envisioned future for Snape on Tabula Rasa is less bleak than expected. Notes: Written for the_blank_slate, a multi-fandom RPG where characters are mystically transported to a desert island that has some crazy tendencies of its own. Random items appear of personal significance, the food never runs out in the kitchen, dinosaurs run around part of the island, there is no magic, and strange events like bodyswapping happen every so often. This was done for a meme in our character development community where players wrote ficlets about their pup's future on the island. It's impossible to explain all of Snape's backstory without writing a novel here, so if you want more information, just comment and I'll tell you anything you'd like to know.
Title: What Do You Seek? Archive: Please ask permission. Feedback: If you so desire. Rating: PG-13 for some slightly dark images. Disclaimer: They're all J. K. Rowling's, and I've got the feeling that she'd have my head for this. Summary: Severus dreams, heavy on the symbolism. AU. Notes: Written for the_blank_slate, a multi-fandom RPG where characters are mystically transported to a desert island that has some crazy tendencies of its own. Random items appear of personal significance, the food never runs out in the kitchen, dinosaurs run around part of the island, there is no magic, and strange events like bodyswapping happen every so often. After a very stressful period where it seems as though all his relationships have been destroyed by his own Snape-ness, he dreams. The 'Toby' mentioned in the dream is a young man with whom Snape has an on-again, off-again, turbulant sort of relationship. There's so much more to this little ficlet than that, but it's hard to explain the game's whole canon and Snape's backstory there in this little space. If you're interested in what the dream meant, just let me know and I'll explain it. Originally posted April 2006.
Title: This Body is Mine Author: hikaru / _regarde Archive: Please ask permission. Feedback: If you so desire. Rating: PG-13 for some dark imagery, but not much Disclaimer: They're all J. K. Rowling's, and I've got the feeling that she'd have my head for this. Summary: After two days of body-switched horror, Snape is returned to his own body and goes out to the beach to think, read, and dream in metaphors. AU. Notes: Written for the_blank_slate, a multi-fandom RPG where characters are mystically transported to a desert island that has some crazy tendencies of its own. Random items appear of personal significance, the food never runs out in the kitchen, dinosaurs run around part of the island, and strange events like bodyswapping happen every so often. For the past two days, Snape has been stuck inside the body of Sirius Black, an all too surreal and traumatic experience. Back in his own body, he realises that maybe, just for a moment, he is glad to be himself for once, even if he is stuck with some of Sirius' leftover mannerisms, quirks, and perhaps even thoughts. There's so much more to this little ficlet than that, but it's hard to explain the game's whole canon and Snape's backstory there in this little space. If you're interested in what the dream meant, just let me know and I'll explain it. (The 'certain blonde boy' is not Draco.)

Severus sighed and looked under the bed for his bunny slippers. When his exquisitely manicured hand returned nothing but dust, he rolled his eyes dramatically and flopped back onto the bed, rolling smack into his lover.
"Sirius, darling," he said, perfectly chipper, "have you seen my Wunnybun slippers?"
Sirius turned and smiled glowingly at Severus. He reached out and ran his fingers through Severus' long, shiny hair. "I believe, love, that they were thrown towards your armoire today whilst in throes of passion."
"Indeed. Shall we make love by the armoire to retrieve the slippers?"

Lucius perched one hand on Severus' shoulder. "Do you understand why you must kill?"
Nearly imperceptibly, Severus nodded.
"Tell me."
Severus shook his head. "We must do this because He requires it." He paused. "We must show loyalty."
"From your initiation until your death, you are His." The men spoke in unison, Lucius' voice proud and cocky; Severus' soft and halting.
"Then do it. Show loyalty to our Lord," he whispered harshly. The older man nudged his protégé forward until Severus was before a body-bound Muggle.
Severus inhaled, raised his wand, and uttered the most Unforgivable curse of all.
Title: Severus Snape: Death Eater, or Fluffy Bunny Lover? Author:hikaru / _regarde Archive: Please ask permission. Feedback: If you so desire. Disclaimer: They're all J. K. Rowling's, and I've got the feeling that she'd have my head for this. Rating: PG-13 Word Count: 100 Characters: Severus Snape and an unnamed male character. Summary: The Quibbler has an interesting scoop on Snape. Notes: Written for hp100. Also references my "When Pigs Fly" drabble. For the Quibbler challenge.
Investigators have reported that Severus Snape, former Death Eater and Potions Master at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, is not as tough as he'd have students believe.
Snape allegedly owns a pair of fuzzy bunny slippers, which he wears whilst relaxing at night. Conversations were overheard between Snape and another man (see story on page 3B, "SNAPE TAKES GAY LOVER!") last week, where a seemingly intoxicated Snape repeatedly requested a pair of bunny slippers, before yelling "Yes, oh, Merlin, yes!" Our reporter left the scene immediately to request a photographer. (see story on page 4A, "INTIMATE PHOTOS OF A DEATH EATER:)
