Hm. So. Lots of interesting things have been going on. More on that later. But one of the upshots for you was that I was sifting through my fic for this ship, reorganizing my file folders, and rereading to see what was finished, unfinished, a perpetual WIP, you know – same old, same old, and I came across this one. And I don’t think I ever posted it. And I have no idea when I wrote it, but here you go – one of a few I’ll be posting, should time permit. Consider them a little Valentine’s Day Prezzie.

Title: Rearrange
Author: Sare Liz
Rating: PG
Pairing: SS/HG
Continuity: DH+bezoar, EWE.
Warnings: None
Disclaimer: Of course they don’t belong to me.
Author’s Note: This is not the first fic that has been spawned by the entirely wonderful U2 song, “The Fly” – see end note for lyrics. No, this is not the only fic I’ve written inspired by this song, but possibly the only one for this fandom. …No, that might not even be true. Hm.


Click for the fic…

Title: A Quiet Embrace
Author: Sare Liz
Rating: PG-13, for vague references to adult situations
Warnings: Resolved angst. Hermione’s age could be in dispute. Let’s say she’s of the age of consent, shall we?
Disclaimer: Well, no, I didn’t create the characters. Were you confused?
Series: none
Continuity: OotP only. Pre-war.
A/N: This story is a departure from my normal, if I’ve got one. And it makes much more sense if you have “Get Me Through December” by Natalie McMaster playing softly in the background while you read.


Follow me for the fic!

Title: A Suzerain Arrangement
Author: Sare Liz, sare-liz.livejournal.com
Series: Spinner’s End (Third Part)
Ship: SS/HG
Rating: PG13
Warning: Resolved Angst, Adult Issues, one use of the ever lovely F word.
Disclaimer: The obvious characters do not belong to me, they belong to JKR. The name of the Thaumarasga Draught is mine, though the essence of it is, I am sure, not original. The Suzerain Arrangement… Well, it came up in OT class, back when I was in school, though not quite like this. The Suzerain Treaty is a type of agreement that is roughly 4000 years old. This use of it, however, is brand spanking new. I’m sure that the Dr. Fentress-Williams would be at least slightly amused at my utter perversion of academic knowledge in this instance…

Here there be dragons… (No, not really.)

Title: Mr. Smith’s Mysterious Box
Series: Spinner’s End
Author: Sare Liz, sare-liz.livejournal.com
Ship: HG/SS
Rating: PG
Word Count: 6,857
Warning: Some angst.
Continuity: HBP compliant, and inspired by events in DH. A sequel to the short piece “The Last Letter” which would definitely be helpful to read before you embark on this one. I’m calling this series “Spinner’s End”
Disclaimer: JKR is the mother, she’s got the rights. We just knock on her door and ask if her fictive children can come out to play. They’ll be home by dinner, we promise.
Author’s Note: I thought I was done writing angst. No more angst for Sarey. And then, I realize that life doesn’t quite work like that. And so, I was glad that I had a perfectly lovely situation that was conducive to angst, and, as I so enjoy, the resolution of it.

To the next bit of Spinner’s End!

I wrote this several years ago. Since my Severus Muse has taken residence and is scowling at the cat, I thought I would post it here. It’s short and sweet and probably better than the excruciatingly long MLC fic I’m currently working on (that I thought was going to be relegated to the permenant WIP pile). Still, I’m interested in what you think of it.

Title: Indifference
Author: Sare Liz
Rating: PG; HG/SS
Warnings: None.
Disclaimer: The characters do not belong to me.
Distribution: By appointment only.
Author’s Note: Inspired by Sting’s melancholy song Ghost Story, off the album, Brand New Day, lyrics below, and the Marriage Contract challenge from the WIKTT list, of which the rules were taken as guidelines. Also, I have read too much Jane Austin. It’s official.

So, okay.

Since…. eeek…. since my first year in seminary when I was taking classes on liturgy and actually learning the history of and how to conduct marriages (among other things) which I will sadly admit was four years ago, I have been writing this fic. It’s 25,500+ words, but I think I’ve finally hit the mid point.

I realize that, in fact, the Marriage Law Challenge has ended many years ago.

I realize that this challenge has become, in some sense, trite and overused as a method of throwing our two favorite characters into a situation where like it or not they will be intimate in a thousand different ways.

I realize that I have already written an entry to this challenge, which was actually a throwaway little nothing written in the style of a Jane Austin epilogue, and I only wrote because I was so damn frustrated with the Fic That Would Not End (Or Die).

So, I’m still working on my entry. Which is to say, I’m still working on my primary entry.

::sigh:: I need a beta. And a cheerleader. And I need them to be a shipper. ::sigh::

I’ve been revising and editing quite a lot of what i’d already written, but here is a little snippet from one of the new sections that I wrote last night. Severus is meeting her parents for the first time, they’ve more or less accepted the idiotic law, and they’re trying to be civilized about it all.

::smiles::

Snippet rated R for one terrific use of the F word. Otherwise, rated G.

Lemony Snippet! (No, not really. False advertizing. No lemons. Maybe later.)

Because we love Hermione’s mum, this one is from Dr. Granger’s point of view. Yay! This one isn’t quite the understanding of the character as is seen in Firebolt Ring, but you can’t win them all.

Here, tis, the follow up from the 14 drabbles. Is there more? Of course.

Title: The First Day of the Rest of Your Life
Author: Sare Liz
Disclaimer: Not mine.
Continuity: continues after the set of drabbles entitled ‘Dirty Day’. Is Canon until July 21, 2007, after which it is anyone’s guess.
Inspiration: We’re still being inspired by U2 at this point. I know, you’re all just shocked.
Warnings: None.
Pairings: SS/HG

To the fic!

So.

I was on vacation with rakaiagirl, right? Right. And then her bishop dies. Cancel vacation, drive back to the U.P. with her. Since I can’t drive stick, I’m reading HP:OOP, out loud, in character, with appropriate british accents and angsty yelling at the top of my lungs – I had no real concept of just how much Harry yells in the first half of that book. 14.5 hours later and we’re only halfway through. Crazy.

So, a lot has to happen when your boss dies suddenly, ditto a bishop, and when it’s both, it’s crazy. I spent some quality time alone, which was good for this little introvert. And during that time, I wrote this.

It started out as a writing exercise, since i hadn’t been writing much lately. I grabbed my playlist called ‘Severus’ and decided i’d write a drabble to each song.

I only got as far as the first song, mainly because I wrote a drabble for every two lines.

Literally.

There are fourteen drabbles. And then, I just kept writing. So, here’s the fourteen drabbles. More to come.

Title: Dirty Day
Author: Sare Liz
Disclaimer: Does not belong to me.
Rating: light R for honest discussions of sex between consenting adults, and a bit of swearing.
Pairing: SS/HG
Continuity: For the next seven days, it’s not an AU. After July 21, 2007, it might be. I don’t think Severus is OOC, because I think that any and everyone is capable of redemption and personal growth. Perhaps it’s the priest in me. It leaks out at the oddest times.
Inspiration: U2′s Dirty Day [Junk Day Remix]. It’s just brilliant.

Please note each drabble has it’s own title.

On to the fic!

Right. So, I’ve been writing. Here’s what inspired this little bit.

Now, here is a warning to all those who read my journal but who have no idea what fanfic is, or give funny looks to those kind-hearted and imaginative people who dress up in highly appropriate clothing for things like movie premieres. Don’t read this. It’s a work of fiction and not worth your time or ill will. No, seriously. This clearly isn’t an entry for you, so please use your own good sense. Thank you. (End Public Service Announcement.)

And now, to the fic.
