Title: Bigmouth Strikes Again
Fandom: The Avengers/Marvel Cinematic Universe
Rating: Hard R
Pairings: Tony Stark/Loki Laufeyson
Word Count: ~16,500
Warnings/Content Information: Established relationship, infidelity, definite crackiness
Summary: Tony doesn't think he and Loki actually have a thing going. Well. Not until Tony fucks it up, at least.
Notes: Much love to bethbethbeth and noeon for their awesome betas and encouragement, goseaward for the science advice, and to my flist for egging me on. Title also lovingly nicked from The Smiths. This story came out of a conversation in which Noe and I discussed what would happen if Tony ever cheated on Loki—our immediate response was “well, blow up Hoboken, obviously.” So. Yes. Apologies to the residents of New Jersey...it appears you've been Loki'd. :)

Also, yeah, there's a reason there's a series tag on AO3 for this fic. I may have started writing the next installment already. Dammit.

( You see, the thing is, Tony doesn't really do relationships. )

Title: This Valley of Dying Stars
Rating: R
Characters: Snape/Draco, Astoria, Scorpius
Word Count: ~13,500
Warnings: Serious illness, semi-epilogue compliant
Disclaimer: Sadly, they don't belong to me. If they did, Deathly Hallows would have been a Snaco fic and Nagini would have died in the first chapter.

Summary: “I know I’m dying,” I say at last. “I don’t expect miracles from you.” Severus looks at me evenly. “I don't have any to offer.”

Notes: Written for florahart for the 2010 snaco_exchange. Many thanks and much love to my betas bethbethbeth, noeon and supergrover24, to Flora for such a wonderful prompt to work with, and to Nishi for her patience with me.

Title: Says The Magpie To The Morning (Sorrow, Take Your Own Advice)
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco (with just a smidge of Draco/Blaise)
Summary: It's terribly bad form, sleeping with your ex when you're still half in love with the bastard.
Rating: NC-17
Warnings: Past established relationship, EWE
Word Count: ~34,000

Author's Notes: Written for bryoneybrynn in the 2009 hd_holidays Many thanks as well to my two betas, supergrover24 and noeon, and additional heartfelt thanks to bryoneybrynn for helping to redirect me when I got stuck and for cheerleading me through those long dark teatimes of the writer's soul. Title cheerfully stolen from Neko Case.

(  When Blaise finally comes, I've stopped paying attention and moved on to planning what to wear to lunch at L'Oranger with Mother tomorrow… )

Title: L'ouragan
Author: Femme
Rating: NC-17
Word count: 9,056
Warning(s): Semi-epilogue compliant.
Prompt: #28 One of the things Harry does in MLE is track down unexpected uses of British-style magic in third-world environments, because it would be so easy for an unscrupulous wizard to take advantage. He's more than a little surprised to find Snape doing school-building work.
Summary: We had tried, but not even magic could stop the rising flood. Instead, we'd turned to rescuing those we could, joining the wizards and Muggles traversing the streets of the ward in boats, pontoons, any damn thing that could float. We pulled people from rooftops, from attics, from damned trees, until the soldiers arrived finally and sent us away.

A/N: Written for the 2009 Snarry-a-thon on snape_potter.

I tweaked the prompt just a bit, then said to hell with it and drove it down an entirely different road. :) Many thanks to my three gracious (and fast) betas, bethbethbeth, supergrover24, and ze_dragon, to florahart for the initial prompt, and to the mods for their great patience with me. Please note that the French you may find within is Creole and Cajun patois rather than the French you might hear in the streets of Paris. With love to the people of New Orleans.
