Ok, so it’s far from perfect and I haven’t done the background but…. This is the most finished I’ve managed to do for a while! Yay Snupin!

Oh yeah and I accidentally made them both hung like donkeys. Oops. Thanks boys 🖤

Just two bibliophiles hanging out 🖤

I made a background! It’s just photoshopped from a stock image but I’m still excited cause I never finish anything!

Artemisia Absinthium

I can’t believe it’s almost three months since I finished the second part of the story!

I got a bit stuck for a while but things are back on track, and I’ve got a couple of chapters drafted. There is going to be action, drama, soft moments, and tough times, magic and mystery! I’m so excited 💀

I’m not sure when I will post the first chapter, as I’m going on holiday in just over a week (more on that later). If I do post before I go the next one won’t be out for two weeks, but it is on it’s way so watch this space!!

Artemisia Absinthium

First chapter of Part Three is live!!!

The Bear and The Dragon

Voldemort is dead - or so they thought until Regulus Black defected, bringing with him a terrifying object. Lily has divorced James and moved to Scotland with Harry. Severus and Remus are quite sickeningly happy. And Sirius has met his match in the enigmatic Amelia. But Bellatrix Lestrange had been left instructions by the Dark Lord, and with the help of the remaining Death Eaters her plans are set to derail their lives. The Order might be destroying Horcruxes - but she only needs one...

This is not exactly what Severus wears on his wedding day but similar 🖤

Floor plan for the house formerly known as the shrieking shack 🖤 (In the Artemisia Absinthium fic)

Taking name suggestions; so far I have The Love Shack, and Mugwort Cottage but I hate them both.

Two Does

[A/N: My personal hc of how/why Lily and Severus had the same patronus. Taken from my fic Artemisia Absinthium (link below). Platonic Snily. SFW]

The only redeeming feature of Cokeworth was that it was not far from the southern edge of the Peak District National Park. Severus had never been an outdoorsy type – not in the way that the Evans were at least. They loved hiking and camping, as any good middle class family should, and Lily insisted that it would be great fun for the two of them to go off for a night into the wilderness. Severus complained that his home was barely habitable as it was, so why would he want to spend the night in an even smaller, colder, and damper abode? But of course he would go almost anywhere to get away from his dad for a night. He’d even slept under the canal bridge on one particularly desperate occasion. And he could never say no to Lily. So they packed up a tent and some very basic provisions and went off on their “adventure”.

They took a bus as far as Blackshaw, then hiked up into the hills. Lily reckoned the Ministry didn’t bother checking for underage magic way out in the middle of nowhere. Severus was dubious about that claim, but had been practising a ward that he thought would block their signatures, and they were both desperate to learn the patronus charm that was in next year’s DADA curriculum. Lily was unbearably cheerful about the whole thing, while Severus grumbled the entire way, but once they were out on the moors even he couldn’t complain too much. There was something about being away from everything and everyone. He could almost pretend that they were the only people left on the earth. No war, no sides, no good and bad, no Gryffindor or Slytherin, no Tobias, no Potter.

Despite it being the middle of summer, it got cold at night out on the moors, and they ended up both snuggled in the same sleeping bag, wearing every single item of clothing they had brought. Severus woke up shivering in the pale early light to find Lily gone, and poked his head out of the tent.

‘Shh!’ Lily whispered, then pointed across the long, dew covered scrubland. A herd of red deer were grazing in the dawn light, their graceful forms almost like ghosts in the early morning mist. They watched the animals for half an hour, wrapped in blankets and drinking black tea from tin mugs.

Lily was the first to cast. She took out her wand while still staring at the herd, and cast the spell with seemingly little thought. Severus had never felt more at peace, or at home out there away from the world, and he too took out his wand and spoke the words. “Expecto Patronum.” A moment later the two silver does went skipping off across the moor as if to join their herd.

This is an extract from part three of Artemisia Absinthium

[artemisia-absinthium-blog]

Master List

I have 15 fanfics now. All HP (one Sandman crossover), all pro Snape! Please check tags and content warnings before reading.

All on Ao3 ~ Details below the cut.

Keep readingThe Prince and The Crow

Not rated. Swearing, mild sexual content and some violence.

This is my main fic. Complete re-write of the HP series, including my original character. Semi canon compliant. Kind of a fix-it, broke-it, fixed-it again! Details of parts below:

The Crow Comes Home

Prequel and year one (Philosopher's Stone). Petronella Blishwick is a grumpy badass bitch, and only living friend of Severus Snape. She has been drifting for years since the end of the first war, but when Severus brings her home - to Hogwarts - it changes the course of all their futures. COMPLETE!

The Year of the Snake

Harry's 2nd year (CoS). Severitius and Snape x ofc, partially following canon, but with a few divergencies and extra sub plots. Fluff and Angst and baddass bitches. COMPLETE.

The Year of the Rat

Part three (PoA) Severus and Petronella plan to adopt Harry, but they will face opposition and challenges both internal and external. Beginning to diverge from canon somewhat. COMPLETE.

~~~~~

Artemisia Absinthium

Rated E for explicit. Graphic sex and violence. Adult themes.

Started as a tumblr post, became a(n epic) series! AU set post Marauders, with a little lot of Snupin for good measure.

SERIES COMPLETE.

The Rat and The Snake

What if Severus Snape had discovered Peter Pettigrew's treachery before the Potters were killed? *Graphic violence.*

The Wolf and The Moth

The war is won, but is it really over? Relationships are forged and broken, as those that survived the war now have to learn how to live. *Explicit sex and violence.*

The Bear and The Dragon

Bellatrix seeks to bring back the Dark Lord, but a new power rises to oppose her. *Explicit sex and violence.*

~~~~~

Even Princes Can Dream

HP / Sandman crossover. Eventual Snape / Morpheus (implied). The Dream King comes across a child who only ever has nightmares.

~~~~~

The Comeback

Rated G for general. Some swearing and mature content.

Also inspired by a Tumblr prompt. 1st September 1998. Hogwarts. The first school year since the defeat of Voldemort. There is grief, there is hope, there is a dark robed figure in the corner that nobody had expected to see again. A mildly humorous tale with dark undertones. COMPLETE!

The Comeback Pick n Mix

Series of one shots following on from The Comeback. May contain contradictory ships / events, but compliant with the main fic. Ongoing.

~~~~~

The Half-blood Prince

Not Rated. Contains graphic domestic abuse.

What would happen if Eileen Snape left Tobias and went back to her parents? Under 10k. COMPLETE, but may be added to.

~~~~~

Monsters

Contains implied violence, death, and graphic gore.

One morning Remus wakes to find the thing he fears most in the world. He goes to the only person he can think of who won’t judge him – because Snape already knows what he is. A monster. COMPLETE.

~~~~~

Mostly Smut! **All contain explicit sex**

Seven Deadly Sins

Everyone thinks that Professor Snape covets the position of Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor, which is true… in a manner of speaking.

To His Mind

Snupin! Extended version of a scene in The Rat and The Snake. The Order has a mole, everyone is a suspect, but when Severus Snape looks into Remus Lupin's mind, he gets more than he bargained for!

Prince and Crow, the Smut chapters

E for Explicit. Graphic sex.

Basically just all the sex scenes I left out of the main fic! Friends to lovers, becoming increasingly smutty, but also fluffy, as the relationship develops.
