[amanuensis1]

So, yeah, while I like the idea of Snape/Lupin in theory, I'm not usually one to seek out fic for it. I get this Truffaut-esque sense of quietness with the pairing, which is not how I usually want my smut. (It's the Eddie Izzard "I've been arranging matches," "I think I'd...better go," "Yes, I think you better had," narrative, when I'm looking for

I loved naked Draco at the breakfast table!

I've actually met Eddie Izzard. His nail varnish was all chipped, but we made him say "covered in bees". I think we annoyed him.

Thanks for the rec, and for using the word 'literate' in the same sentence as my username. :D

Just a WONDERFUL piece of work. I tolja that already on the post but you deserve to hear it again. *hugs* :D

This was a fantastic fic. Thank you for rec'ing it. Oh, and btw, my best friend made me a shirt with a squirrel on it that says, "Did I leave the gas on?". It's wondermous, and it's always cool to see the people who recognize the quote. ~Harvest

I love quoting that entire show! "Hitler never played Risk as a child..."

Oh, if I knew you had recommended it, I would've read the story much, much earlier. And it's fabulous! I avoided it, at first, because I doubted a random threesome like that could work.

But it did.

Oh, it certainly did.

My only problem: it was all too short. Not just the story in general, but a lot of the scenes. I'd love to see a reworked version with a tad more detail. I'll have to comment about that on the story itself, though.

Isn't it remarkable how it all worked out like that?

It is remarkable, and very lucky. And I love Eddie Izzard, too.
