Cursed Artefacts For Sale Harry/Snape, PG-13, is now up on Fiction Alley.

Humour, magic and an established, snarky relationship as Harry is dragged to a Wizarding auction by his rather mad lover. "Collecting Cursed Artefacts is a registered form of madness in the Compendium of Wizarding Mental Disorders and Other Things That Make You Twitch," Severus said, "like most compulsions to collect. But it's very a popular one and I plan to beat everyone else to it."

Part of the Primer to the Dark Arts universe.

Spent a lot of time on Percy (keep those Percy Ficathon sign-ups rolling in!), and on Ron/Hermione today.

There was a universal complaint on 'Checkmated' that The Hat Trick left them hanging! I have an epilogue (half) written to tie up the loose ends -- but, I don't, really. Sorry. Just seems to be that sort of 'real life' story that doesn't turn out neat and tidy.

I'm really grateful for the responses I've had. I was so worried about this story because it's radically different from what I've written in the past. I usually develop stories from the relationship outward, but the challenge was plot-centric, so I had to change how I write for this story. I was worried that the characterisation and interactions might suffer as a result, but they seemed to have survived just fine. :)
