What He Wants by debchan (NC-17)
Fandom: HARRY POTTER
Pairing: Harry Potter/Severus Snape
Author on LJ: wossname
Author Website: chalk scribblings on the sidewalk
Why this must be read:
Debchan begins "What He Wants" with the following quotation, "Whenever we confront an unbridled desire we are surely in the presence of a tragedy-in-the-making." Suggesting that student-teacher relationships are rife with possibilities for tragedy and exploitation is hardly a radical proposition, but in this Harry/Snape story, it's not Harry who needs protection - Harry knows exactly what he wants. Post OotP, the prose here is thick with desperation, which leads both characters down paths perhaps better left untraveled. Sharp, surprising, and edgy.
