My Fics
**I keep this account only so I can subscribe to IJ-only comms. My 'real' journal (such as it is) is here.**

My first few fics are only housed at ff.n, and I’m not linking to them here (I’m not hiding them--they’re easy enough to find--but they’re not the sort of thing I’m particularly proud of anymore). I came into the fandom as a DM/HG shipper with a rather. . . florid writing style. I’ve since ditched the ship in favour of rather less popular characters (my favourites are fairly obvious) and pared down my writing to a more manageable level (most of the time--it still sometimes gets away from me). These are the results.

Harry Potter Fanfic
Severus Snape/Millicent Bulstrode/Dennis Creevey
“Sod Off” Means “I Love You” (R) -- It begins and ends with the camera. Snapshots of life, and the living thereof. Written for the 2010 hp_beholder exchange. (Go ahead and click; you *know* you're curious!)

Neville Longbottom/Millicent Bulstrode:
There Are Days I Wish I Lived in a Romance Novel (But This Isn't One of Them) (PG-13) -- In a cluttered workshop and amid the rambunctious denizens of his greenhouse, Neville Longbottom discovers that beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder. Now he only has to convince Millicent Bulstrode. . . . Written for the 2009 hp_beholder exchange.

Ron Weasley/Hermione Granger:
Hunger (PG) -- In which Ginny talks, and Hermione’s mind wanders. Written for the porkish_pixies 3-G (Gourmet, Gourmand or Glutton) Ron-a-Thon challenge.

Dudley Dursley/Millicent Bulstrode:
Below the Belt (R) -- All Dudley wanted to do was deliver the letter and return to his perfectly normal, relatively pleasant existence. Luckily for him, fate and Millicent Bulstrode intervened. Written for the 2008 hp_beholder exchange, which has a lot of good fics about non-standardly-beautiful characters.

Gregory Goyle/Millicent Bulstrode:
Velvet & Sidekicks -- Because, as much as books and movies tell us otherwise, perfect people don't live. While Harry is off saving the world, Draco is styling his hair and buffing his nails, and Hermione is getting top grades and cultivating a willowy physique, the rest of us are living, laughing, and loving. A tribute to the imperfect.
Memory Like Old Lace -- Much as movies would like to convince us otherwise, love isn't all doe-eyed gazes and steamy clinches. Much as divorce lawyers would like to convince us otherwise, real love doesn't pack its bags when times get tough. A real love story.
Afterwards -- "The hardest part about taking care of a person dying inch-by-inch isn't the sleepless nights, the wrenched back from lifting once (or twenty times) too often, or the isolation. The hardest part is afterwards."
Afterwards is a sequel to MLOL. They could be considered as an extension of the V&S storyline, although they don't have to (depending on your mood, really).

Vincent Crabbe/Millicent Bulstrode:
Keep It Simple, Stupid -- for The Great Harry Potter Drabble Challenge ("Is it possible to get a drabble written for every possible pairing in the Harry Potter world...each one by a different writer?")
BBW (Big Beautiful Witch) -- Vince has never claimed to be the brightest light in the chandelier, but once he gets an idea in his mind, he hangs onto it like a hippogriff with a nice, juicy ferret. Unfortunately, he’s always had difficulty expressing himself.

Arthur/Molly:
Behind Closed, Locked, and Soundproofed Doors -- "Arthur Weasley was rarely seen kissing his wife." Not all romances are conducted in front of the camera.

Millicent Bulstrode:
I Will Not Play the Martyr -- Millicent is not your average woman.

Vincent Crabbe:
Polyjuice Portrait -- "Vincent Crabbe hated little girls. More to the point, he hated being one."
