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.

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.

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…

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! )

So - what say you my fine friends? Good? Bad? Ugly? Want more? Couldn't care less?

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 - what say you?

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.) )

Thoughts, comments, intentions to throw yourself over the cliff after witnessing it?

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 found this fic that I'd finished and had betaed... well, a while ago. Um, oops. And I sort of forgot to post it. At any rate, here you go. ::hugs:: to all.


Title: Body Image
Author: Sare Liz
Disclaimer: JKR
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1300
Series: A Firebolt Ring – sometime in the rather distant future from the rest of what’s being written currently.

Claim: VK/HG
Prompt: #100, Writer’s Choice: Body Image [prompt table]
Author’s Note: This is for my Potterverse100 claim. In my head this takes place in my FR series, some amorphous time just before or just after the war when the two rediscover each other. This is the advent of a deeper physical intimacy between the couple. In other news, ::sigh:: I’ve been reading perhaps too much feminist theology. Perhaps not enough. This is for everyone, male or female, who ever thought they were something less than perfectly desirable. And thanks to ladykesfor the excellent beta!

Title: Letters Home, 2/2
Author: Sare Liz
Series: A Firebolt Ring
Rating: PG-13 for clear and concise conversations about sex
Word Count: 6,298
Disclaimer: Belongs to JKR and Associates.
Notes: Well among other things, herein is addressed those hurtful things Hermione says of Viktor while she’s in the library with Harry, just before the first trial – things along the lines of ‘Oh, why doesn’t he just go study on his ship?’
Can’t remember what went on in Viktor’s head? I recommend you go back and reread Letters Home, part one, or at least the middle bits.

( Like a stone taken from the embers of a fire, was Viktor. )

END.

I have for you a bunch of 100 word drabbles. They're all from the potterverse 100 prompts. Three are from Hermione's POV, three from Viktor's, and all range in rating from PG to R, none contain warnable material.

Amazing Bouncing Ferret Universe.

General Cut: ( To the drabbley-babbles! )

Happy Birthday Inell! Yay!

I have chosen to finish this story instead of read for class, and so now that I have done so, I'm going to cram lunch and reading, and life will return to normal. When I get a chance, I'll x-post this story to viktorhermione and potterverse100, and update the prompt table.

To those on my flist that I've not gotten back to, soon. ::hugs:: Thank you for your patience!

Notes: Thank you to my betas who are diligent, but busy. ::huggles::

( He hadn’t been bold enough, and it just didn’t get any worse. This would qualify for a Shakespearean tragedy. )

EDIT: fixed the monster paragraph from hell that made no sense. All is well in my world, now.

Notes: This is fic number two in the Firebolt Ring series. Fic number one is Passing Notes. I’d like to thank my two lovely and brand new betas, Angelictears and Victoriana, as well as my best friend Rakaiagirl for their reading, commenting, and general cheerleading. My story is much better for their redaction.

Title: Passing Notes, in four parts
Author: Sare Liz
Pairing: HG/VK
Series: Firebolt Ring
Disclaimer: These characters belong to JKR, and other associated sundry corporate ones.
Warning: Rated PG-13 for some double entendre and flutterings in the stomach. It’s strangely contiguous with both GoF book and movie (does this count for the heresy of syncretism?). And yet, this is possibly OOC for Viktor. Not that we have a heck of a lot to go on, but I’m betting there’s more than one story behind his glowering façade.

Notes: So, this is my first sojourn in this fandom. I’m so very excited. And I have no beta, yet. Perhaps this will become very clear to you as you read on. If anyone is willing to take on that heinous task, let me know.
