It's a small world

I know I failed my maths test today. Badly. But am stragely not concerned. In other news, I had an interesting conversation with a friend in my maths lecture (no, that's not why I failed the test) and it turns out she reads and writes fanfiction and knows what slash is. How cool is that. Well I already knew she was reading CSI fic, (she'd mentioned a couple of times) she is majorly obsessed with it and I promised her I'll watch it to see what it's all about. But today she said that she started writing (well not so much said, but wrote, we tend to write notes to each other in our books, as it is sneakier than talking. Well we talk too, only I am the one that gets told off all the time, and she is not, ever.) (also I promise to stop with the brackets, really) And I asked he what and she said fanfiction, but not slash. And I wrote I do, above the not slash part. She wrote kinky and I said yes. Considering I've never told her I read or write fic before that, it went rather well, I did specify it's Harry Potter and she said she'd seen links to HP fics. She didn't seem too keen on the idea of slash, and said it's not her thing, to which I added yet, and said I'll corrupt her yet. Am planning to, she didn't seem to mind and told me to show her what she is missing. She even showed me her notebook with things she's written and I showed her my book which has the drabbles I wrote recently, (I write in the library in my frees, more fun than doing homework, also the thought of  having porn amongst my work is strangely uplifting, also it's in the library with lots of my friends around, good thing my handwriting is appaling.)

Now what I need is to live up to my word and show her that slash is indeed great, I just don't know how. Do I get her to read something very mild, or not, should it be long or short, angsty or funny, and what pairing. It has to be HP, I am not looking through CSI fics without having seen a single episode, but she likes the books. Can you rec me fics that would be a good first time dip into slash?

I have to go write an english essay for tomorrow, will be working 4 days a week for the next 5 weeks, me thinks survival won't be easy.

PS. If you missed them, I finally wrote the Drabble requests! :D
