Sorry, I forgot to specify that part! No, WIPs are fine, really, i'm
open to anything. (I'm supposed to be revising and I'll have to
catch up with what's already been posted - so usually the odds are on
the
updates coming before I reach that far!)




This fic is Harry/Snape, but before people run away (and I know lots of
people hate this pairing and not because it's slash - slash haters may as
well go away because there's nothing I can say to convince them to read
this) Harry isn't really Harry exactly (I'm *not* saying he's OOC), but I
can't explain without basically telling you the entire plot. Briefly Harry
gets sucked into an alternate universe (sort of) and then spat back out at
the same time and place as he left but having lived about fifteen years and
fought a war in the alternate universe. No one else knows. Sort of.

The thing I usually suggest to people who are iffy about the pairing is -
just read the first three chapters and then make up your mind. By that time
you'll see why it works (or not) without having to suffer any real
interaction between the two of them. It's stunningly original (and I can
count on one hand, probably with fingers left over, the number of HP fanfics
that can honestly say that) and very well written.

It's archived at the site below and also has a yahoo group if you like it
and want to keep up with updates. Just a warning - do not join the group and
ask 'is the author ever going to update or has she given up?' the answer is
in the FAQ and some idiot asks that at least once a month and it's getting
*very* irritating - so if you do ignore the FAQ and ask don't be surprised
if lots of heavy objects get thrown ;)
