    Great storytelling combined with an engaging and fun writing style give this story an edge over others that use similar themes and tropes. I love epistolary writing, and there’s letters and Prophet articles embedded within the fic that add to its charm!

    A talented voice amongst HP fanfic! Definitely recommended!

    Summary

    This is the English translation of "Elysejský klíč" a popular Snarry slash fanfiction originally written in Czech by Alice O'Really. It is considered to be probably the most popular Czech Harry Potter fanfiction of all time. Buckle up and enjoy the ride!

    It is the beginning of June 1996, Albus Dumbledore had just drunk the deadly potion protecting the horcrux. Severus Snape, bound by the Unbreakable Vow to Narcissa Malfoy, is rushing to the Astronomy tower, and Harry's sixteenth birthday is less than two months away…

    "Did he hurt you?"

    "Yes. But not like you."

    Harry sat down, his face, scarred with purple lines, pointed directly at Snape. "Did you scream?"

    "Yes."

    "Liar!" Harry was livid. "You would have never, ever screamed!"

    "Don’t be such an idiot, Harry!" Snape exploded. "Of course I was screaming! Pushing pain over the tolerance threshold is an unbendable process, and any attempt to disrupt it through sheer willpower is... insignificant."

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I have just started reading this fic, a translation of a popular Czech fanfic; it’s amazing! There’s a *lot* of technical writing involved, and world-building, straight from the gate, and if the translator and their betas weren’t daunted by that, I think it’s going to be a wonderful read!

    Definitely check it out! More rec info to follow . . . .

    Summary

    Enemy, apprentice, friend. Associate is too clinical, lover sounds too personal, partner too enduring. Confidante? Comrade? Companion?

    There is no word for what Levi is, to him. What do you call an equal other than an equal?

    A counterpart, Erwin thinks.

    Summary

    Severus Snape has his emotions in check. He knows that he experiences anger and self-loathing and a bitter yearning, and that he rarely deviates from that spectrum… Until the first-year Luna Lovegood arrives to his class wearing a wreath of baby’s breath. Over the next six years, an odd friendship grows between the two, and Snape is not sure how he feels about any of it.

    Summary

    5 years after the final battle

    'The world has gone crazy', Harry thought

    I live in Seattle. Ron and Draco are colleagues and somewhat ‘friends’. Master Snape bakes, as in an actual kitchen. I'm the first person in hundreds of years born with sex magic. I’m looking forward to starting submissive training at The Lair. I can’t wait for my potions apprenticeship to start, and it looks like there’s actually such a thing as a true mate, exceedingly rare though they are, and mine is Master Severus Snape, who loathes me.

    Can Harry keep up with a sadist who has lived in the BDSM lifestyle since before Harry was born, much less bond with the man... and how do Draco and his boyfriend fit into the equation?
