The only one I don't see mentioned yet which leapt into my mind is the Finder's Fee series by Gatewaygirl. I can't just skip to porn, I need a certain amount of scene-setting first, but Finder's Fee gets pretty darn quickly to the sex, and it's interesting sex. I also can't articulate just how much I love that Harry doesn't automatically dig every new element Snape tries to bring into their sex life. I've returned to it a lot more often than, say, For Someone Special, which is a new kind of kink every chapter virtually, and it's not just because I've kinda gone off het.
Also, possibly, Seeker's Perfect Plan. And The Boy Who Lived a Bit, already mentioned. Along with someone above, I think of In Between Days as being hot without having any clear recollection of the actual sex! I do remember some, ahem, interesting Apparition lessons, however. But mainly I dig Atrata's awesomely grey, manipulative Snape. And Harry being, you know, a bit of an idiot from time to time.
I find Cambiare gets less hot the more I listen to it, but I wouldn't go straight to Cambiare if I wanted porn anyway.
But, lately, if I want hot sex I'm likely just to pull up a random part of the ST XI kink meme and start reading. Something about my relationship with these two fandoms means that I want long, well-told, thought-provoking stories from the HP fandom, but with Trek short and porny suits me just fine. *shrugs*
Yeah. I think it interesting how some fics that I originally remembered as unbelievably hot didn't really hold up to a second reading.
Heh. I almost included a number of Star Trek and Merlin fics because those are both fandoms where short and porny really work for me. Though then I think my recs list would have been about 100 fics long. Also, for myself, I wanted to keep the fics focused on HP. Though I certainly don't mind if others want to make recs in other fandoms.

*Nods* I know for myself when it comes to HP fandom, porn isn't enough. I almost never read PWPs in HP. Though I will go back and re-read some parts. And not always the porn. Actually, almost never the porn. But I do recognize when porn is especially well-written.
