FIC RECS: 'Severus and the Doomsday Affair' and 'Puzzled Together'
Title: Severus and the Doomsday Affair
Author: jadzialove
Pairing: Snarry
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Summary: Severus sets out on the journey of a lifetime, determined to live before he dies.

HAAAAAA, so jadzialove wrote this great Snarry for me for Christmas, aided and abetted by amand_r, who must've been drowning in the irony of us both writing seekrit Snarrys for each other based on Tom Hanks/Meg Ryan movies. So, Joe vs the Volcano' met 'You've got Mail'. This Snarry I was gifted with turns on one of those universal/classic themes that never gets old: if you knew you were going to die in X months, what would you do now?

Her story is funny, has some endearing OC's I loved, and the idea of Snape deciding to go after something he wants while he still has time put a lump in my throat before I even started. Her Snape was sad and snarky and sexy at the same time, although I did want to shake him a few times, as I'm sure Harry wanted to do more than once. It's about 11,000 words, and it's SNARRY! You'll love it!

And if you've not read her snarry_holidays story, I want to recommend that one to you as well. It's:

Title: Puzzled Together
Author: jadzialove
Rating: NC-17
Summary: At forty-two, Harry Potter finally felt it was safe to relax and enjoy his life, until his own life-long inability to resist a puzzle gets him into the sort of trouble only Severus Snape can fix.

This story has some intriguing original magic (magical puzzle boxes), mature Harry and Snape, magical bonding, and a side-dish of Albus Severus and Scorpius. Harry is alone at the beginning, but there's no Ginny bashing, and the fic has some exquisite twists and turns.
