Snupin Rec fly-by...
3 Jan 2010 04:10 pmHi all!
Just dropping a quick rec from snupin_santa. This fic is so fabulous and I don't want you to miss it!
Untitled, Wrapped in Boxer Shorts
I'm 95% sure I know who wrote this, because the structure of the language and the sense of humor are so unique. Regardless of who wrote it, however, this is just a charming, hysterical, and sweet story. The author relishes using the cliches of the "Stranded on a Desert Island" genre, while at the the same time mocking them and subverting them through Snape's biting narrative voice. The plot is simple- Snape and a large dog (*ahem*) are shipwrecked on a magic-suppressing desert island during wartime, and they have to survive. It's the kind of story that makes me fall in love with language again. You will laugh yourself silly at Snape's brush with lonely madness and Lupin's partial transformation, and the love story is sweet and satisfying.
I keep trying to pull a quote and there are too many good ones, so just go read it!
*hugs*
