Pairing: Harry/Snape

Why this must be read:

For some reason I knew this existed for ages before I actually read it – I don’t even remember why. However, when I actually read it, I couldn’t stop and stayed up well into the night (or early morning)... That’s how good it is.

The plot is fascinating: After the war, Britain’s witches and wizards are left without magic. Everybody is forced to cope with living in the muggle world, and some people are doing better than others. Severus Snape is living in a house/shed in the middle of nowhere when he finds a crup – especially fascinating to him as all magical creatures vanished with the magic...

Go read right now!

I like the leisurely pace and melancholy tone of this story.

Good one!

Thanks. That's exactly what drew me in as well, on top of this very original plot!

Thank you for reccing this. I really, really liked it. A tale, but not a fairy tale. I was positively giddy at the end and just had to read the words aloud to feel their magic ;-))
Thank you very much!

I love stories that make me feel giddy - I always end up walking around with the biggest smile on my face for the rest of the day!

Wow! I normally don't read potterfic, but you persuaded me to give this one a try, and man, am I glad you did!

Glad to know! I know I'm often pleasantly surprised by trying out recs to different fandoms - some stories you just can't miss, even if you don't usually read (or even know) the characters!
