Reading HP fic again

dancing_moonI wanted to read some Harry Potter fanfic again. At first, I thought I'd just revisit some old favorites, get it out of my system and whatnot. However, after having read through all of Fabula Rasa's Snape/Black fics (still so good) I remembered other good authors, other good fics. And then I found the renovated Walking the Plank archive and I just got sucked right back in. Took a while, but I've realised that while there was a lot of moaning that the epilogue had killed the slash fandom, that's not true in the least.
It's fascinating, how you can sometimes just get acronyms and allusions? The first time I saw "spoilers: DH - EWE" I realized immediately that it meant that the fic was canon compliant for The Deathly Hallows (Except the Epilogue) and I had to giggle at it. But there's been fics written which manage to incorporate even the epilogue and still end up with Snape and Harry together. And several of them are bloody good!
New authors found were ac1d6urn and Sinick, who together wrote the amazing Red Right Hand. They've got other collab fics too that I liked a lot, several of which contains images. Not fanart as such - I tend to dislike that in fic, since even the best fanart rarely fits my image of what I've read - but shots of items, scenery, letters etc. And it's all very well done and fits great with the fic. Really nice
If anyone has recs for new stuff, do give me a shout! I basically read Snape/anyone except Remus.
