Title : Particular Chapter 5
Chapter Summary:
Narcissa Malfoy rose from her seat as they stepped into the room, a pleased smile on her lips. “Congratulations to the new Mister and Missus Snape,” she greeted, before turning to directly face Hermione, reaching for her hands. It was a surprisingly intimate gesture from the woman. “I am delighted you could join me for tea today, Hermione. We have so much to talk about.” With a curve of her lips, she flicked her ice-blue eyes towards Severus and gestured her head to the exit of the room. “Lucius is in his office, Severus, waiting for you.”
It was a clear dismissal.

Cruel Summer Wrap Up
BIG DAY FOR SWIFTIES—THIRTY-FIVE NEW FICS!
The mods are absolutely delighted to present the following fics written this summer—from Debut to Evermore, our participants absolutely killed the taylor-swift-inspired fanfiction game, and we couldn't be prouder. Check out the list below for all of the submitted fics from the fest (thirty five! so many!) and leave kudos/like/reblog/comment on your favorites!
We've tried to list both the ao3 and tumblr links for works when possible, so if you like an author's work, be sure to check out their profile for more—and if you're a participant from this summer who doesn't see your work on here...drop us a DM and we'll get that squared away.
Many many thanks to everyone who participated and/or hyped up our fest—neither of us have ever moderated one before, and it was so fun to organize that you might just catch us ready to Begin Again later on in the year 👀👀.
We love you! We're proud of you! You made us so happy!
xx Grey and Andie

Here is the second part of our Behind the Quill - Spicy edition. Today at your request, we hear from our own The French Press .
I contacted our participating authors and asked if they would be willing to participate in a series of interviews or essays regarding writing scenes of intimacy, those who were willing were asked for any tips, thoughts on their process and why they chose it, and any other insight into writing sex scenes they cared to offer.
From The French Press:
Where do I even start on this topic? Smut writing is not something that comes naturally to me, though the number of fics I have written to date that include it might lead you to believe otherwise. I started off in fandom pretty young the first time around, and I think I was 16 when I wrote my first fic and posted it—I had no idea what I was doing back then. When I restarted I returned to writing wanting to try writing scenes of intimacy, and the early ones I would say were somewhat vaguely inspired from experience (write what you know, eh?). I think that’s probably a good foundation when you start out writing smut. Obviously now, a couple of years later, my writing has evolved and so has the smut with it.
For me, it very much depends on the tone of the story as to what level of detail and length I will give to writing a scene. I have definitely dabbled in both soft and tender lovemaking and more intense, hardcore with some dirty talk thrown in. The one thing I think I have pretty down pat is what I like to call “express smut” where it’s not quick, but it’s written like it is. Low detail, mostly focussing on the emotion that’s experienced during, and flows through the scene quickly so you aren’t having to linger for too long on any one detail. It’s my go-to when I’m not in the mood to write smut at all, but feel like the story needs it.
Unless I am writing a fic with a lot of dirty talk, I generally also won’t have my characters verbalising or doing more than moan/groan/pant and detail their emotions because for me, super chatty sex (unless you and your consenting partner are the chatty sort) isn’t something that happens a lot in real life (from my experience).
I’ve also found setting the scene a little is very important in helping readers visualise what’s happening. How is the room they are in lit? Are they in a room? What’s the temperature like? What season are we in and do they need some way to make the temperature bearable? It’s cold, okay let’s like a fire and set the mood. Is there a breeze fluttering the curtains? What does your character smell like? Sprinkle it throughout—not just in one huge exposition dump.
The one thing I will say that doesn’t really help me when writing smut, is porn. No matter how graphic a sex scene I am writing is, it’s not something I let inspire me because I feel like my writers voice would be lost. It’s kind of exaggerated and campy in a way I’m not overly fond of and obviously very targeted as a particular audience, but I suppose if you are writing crack fic it could be useful (?)
And lastly, just know every single author who has ever written smut in fic has written bad smut. We all start somewhere, and it’s through practice that you will improve and evolve your writing.
<EDIT: I am SO sorry I misattributed this post initially. I have them all in the same file and I messed up. I heartily apologise. Look out for DeepShadows2 actual interview tomorrow)

Anyway, gotta sleep now.
Remember to keep your hand at the level of your eyes (brownie points if you got the reference)

Eight Meaningful Touches
by DeepShadows2
It’d been six months to the day since she convinced him in her shed to court her. Six months of quiet private dinners, slow strolls through Muggle towns where no one knew their names, and the occasional night of stargazing over the fields of her farm. Their relationship slowly blossomed into a romance over the summer they shared. It was going far better than she’d expected. Luna noticed how much more open Severus had become with her.

WIP Game
I am so utterly delighted to have been tagged by @thegirlwhowrites642.
Rules: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have wips. (You can make your own post or reblog this one!) I have deemed that this isn’t just for writing either. Sketch titles? Comics? Dnd campaigns? If you have an unfinished project, it counts!!
Turanga Commentary: Please note that my writing always demonstrates a particular relationship: the less developed the actual item, the less developed and possibly more unhinged the title.
Songbird and An Old Hat
Yes And
100 word drabbles
Rat POV
Hermione and Sirius (ARGH IT'S NOT SLASH)
Round Six Failed Themed Piece Maybe Unf@ck This One Later
I shall now tag 6 people, but none of them MUST play and anyone else CAN.

Their Only Child
read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/cXZUdAq
by DeepShadows2
Crookshanks had grown on Severus slowly, transitioning from merely an add-on from his wife to a pet Severus treasured. He never had a pet of his own, and had never expected to get on with one as well as he did with Crookshanks. There were times when Hermione often teased that she had gained a husband but lost a familiar with how much time they spent together.

WIP Game
So @kidansong tagged me in this game. Their absolutely intriguing project list (along with @deepshadows2) can be found here.
Rules: post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous. Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have WIPs. (You can make your own post or reblog this one!) I have deemed that this isn’t just for writing either. Sketch titles? Comics? Dnd campaigns? If you have an unfinished project, it counts!!
Some are plotted but not started. Some are started but stalled. Some are might-as-well-be-abandoned. Some are active WIPs that I swear I will finish. Will I succeed? We may never know.
To be honest, I had to consult my WIP folder and my project tracker because who knows what I've named anything. Certainly not me.
21 Summer
Bonfire Night
Teach Me Bonus
Don't Belong
Anniversaries
Peter
The Last 27 Years

August

I don't know who to tag. 👀 Um. Let's do @lumosatnight, @siriusly-sapphic, and @vdoshu, if they would like. And anyone else who wants to! We are equal opportunity over here.
#i write sometimes#there are a lot of ships here#SSHG#sevmione#harmione#harmony#sirimione#cissamione#And a lot of different tropes and characters and controversial opinions#There's angst and smut and fluffy fluff fluff#It's called diversifying the portfolio

A Name Sweet Like Honey
read it on AO3 at https://ift.tt/oYk0iA2
by DeepShadows2
Severus leaned forward, taking the portion of honeycomb between his teeth, and drawing it back as she let go of it with the tongs. It was crunchy and sweet, but there was a flavor behind it that felt familiar. Honey ran down the corner of his mouth, and he caught it with his index finger, wiping it away before it could ruin his clothing. He chewed for a moment, sampling the flavor and trying to place it.
“What do you think?” she asked, obviously eager for his thoughts.

Out of the Cupboard fest fic:
Evoke by DeepShadows2
Rated E
Hermione Granger wasn't single for a lack of trying. She'd dated several intelligent, charming, and generous men since the end of the war, but each relationship left her feeling as if there was something missing. Without warning, Hermione realizes what that something is when she discovers that she feels more for her closest friends, Romilda Vane, than she realizes. In the aftermath, she struggles to find her identity, and understand the new emotions and sensations that Romilda evokes in her. Or, the one where Hermione falls in love with her best friend, and luckily, she loves her back.

Title: The Minister’s Bodyguard
Chapter 15
Main Pairing(s): SS/HG
Chapter Summary:
“They have no idea what they’ve done, and they will regret it,” Justin stated as he pushed up from the chair, giving his coat a tug.
Severus glanced at him curiously. “Which part of what they’ve done?”
“She’s on the warpath now,” he said quietly, “and anyone who saw her during wartime would know that is a bad idea.”
Content and Trigger Warnings: Mentions of magical medical stuff, and poison

Author's Notes: Surprise, I got it done early and my lovely beta banged her head against the word vomit for more time than anyone should reasonably expect someone to.

Okay folks! Following on from a post in "Potions & Parchment" regarding scenes of sex and intimacy and your favourite authors who write them I have exciting news!
Taken from a wish list compiled by members of Potions & Parchment and The Inkwell, we will soon be sharing posts by Oracle Obscured, DeepShadows2, Kittenshift17, The French Press, AND the one, the only, Teddy Radiator!!
In these posts they will share their thoughts on their own process, how and why they make the choices they do when writing intimacy, and much more.
Teddy has also offered to tackle a Q&A on the subject of writing lemons so here is your chance to ask your questions about the art of spicy writing.
Please submit your question below in the comments section. The number of questions put to Teddy will be limited so not every question submitted will receive a response and all questions will be vetted by selected moderators.

Fanfic authors/fic recommendation post
because I really feel like these people deserve more recognition and I’m genuinely obsessed with these works so please go show them some love 💕
@mystcwritings (DragonWitchPrincess on AO3): if you seriously haven’t read their Death Eater series, I HIGHLY recommend!! They’ve also been posting a few fics on their tumblr page (last entry posted: June 1995). I just really enjoy their writing style and I’m almost positive I re-read one of their works daily.
@zennywrites: I think by now, everyone knows how obsessed I am with her Malfoy Princess series (I don’t know how to link the tag but it’s zenny’s.malfoy.princess👑 if you want to see all the works). The last fic she posted, Best Aunt Ever, was so well written and you could tell how much time she put into it, so please please please go show it some love!
DeepShadows2 (fanfiction.net): I just recently found them but their last couple fics have been AMAZING! (I’ve only read their Lucissa fics, but they also write for other characters and ships like Hermione/Severus). Their last fic, Zygomancy, was literally everything I’ve ever needed (mostly bc I have a similar headcannon about Narcissa being good/interested in divination), so I highly recommend it!
These are just a few I’ve been obsessed with recently, if anyone wants more recommendations, I could probably do a whole list of my favorite fics/authors. Please remember to share the love! If you like what these authors do, please let them know with a like, follow, or a comment/review. It’s not always easy to keep the motivation to write, so it’s always nice to let them know someone appreciates the effort they put into creating these amazing works for us to enjoy 💕
