All of you who yearn for Lucious Lucius, do check out this WIP by switchknife:

If Thine Enemy Her Harry is enticingly young and innocent - but intelligent, Lucius very dark and political. I am disturbed, deeply disturbed, by her Ron and Hermione. But unsurprised at Dumbledore. That her writing is lush and lyrical is clear from the title.

Annnnd...

MartianHouseCat's rec page which has a wonderful Snape/Ron (only I want more Ron!), and one of my all-time favourites, 'Both Sides Now.'

Finally, McTabby and I have a lively debate on the use of first person here. I love it when the person I'm debating is brilliant.

Now off to write:
High&Manipulative!Draco/Drunk&ManipulatedButLovingIt!Ron....

Have you read Aftermath, also by Josan? Another Snape/Ron that's really quite unusual and well done. (Find it here (http://www.angelfire.com/zine2/josan/hp/hp.html).)

My POV on the POV debate is that I like first person when it's done well, which it frequently isn't, and that's why I shudder when I see it.

No, I haven't -- thank you!

Wow, never let up

J.'s Broken!Ron was impressive. Not for one second did she falter or make an unrealistic leap forward. I think this is one of those stories that needs some NC-17 to establish the heat of their connection, it needs more passion than frequent passing 'pressed up against the wall' mentions. It's a very difficult pairing to make believable so it needs to be 'well rounded.' Either that, or I'm a leering perv who wants to see more of Ron in the nude.

*wicked smile*

Thank you. It's perfect for what I'm trying to write, too.
