( a bout of RL )
pervy_werewolf recs:
[fic] I'm excited to be working on
snapelike's LMoM story! The story so far is addictive, and I can't wait to see more. Dark-ish Snupin - be aware of the heavy NC-17 rating.

karasu_hime is doing (Snupin) art for LMoM this year again, which has me incredibly happy. So gorgeous all around!

ponderosa121 is doing LMoM, too! Her pieces - each with a different pairing - have been a treat each so far. Her work is simply beautiful.

snarry_games recs; I haven't even read half of the Games' entries yet, but I'm planning on playing catch-up. Have the two outstanding fics I've read so far:
[fic]
perfica's
Come Out Of The West (rated R) is gorgeous from first to last. It's an Alternate Reality fic set, for the most part, in a hospital. Its structure gave me an orgasm, and I love her portrayal of Harry and Severus. There's this kind of atmosphere surrounding this fic that makes me hold my breath. Believable set-up, intense writing, and great characterisation - what more does one want?

One Down, Two Across (rated NC-17, beware of warnings) is 22,000+ words of magnificence. So original, so intense, so stunning. This fic may not be a classical,
sexual Snarry, but from the beginning it is clear that the relationship between the two will be the driving force of the story. From the first part, the puzzle, to the second part, the solution, this fic is breath-taking. This world completely captures you and takes you hostage, willingly until the end, and even then you want to stay with this story. It's a Stockholm Syndrome you'll develop for sure!

Nine tenths is simply beautiful. The contrasts work amazingly, and the blue/white tinge makes for a real sharp image. And then the words that accompany the picture... Wow. This artist always makes me want to write for her art as it's a story she draws, but I don't think words could ever capture the often chilling atmosphere of her art.
