This week has been busy. I have forgotten how to deal with work, and I might have hit an energy upswing. It's the only thing I can think of to explain the current need to do something everyday.

(The only other reason I have is freaking Tumblr.)

I went insane and drew up a comic based on a Supernatural episode. Insane because I... think I wasn't so much doodling as painting, and I don't even know how to paint. (I am still ridiculously proud of myself.)

Today's doodle is based on "The Prince and the Merman". I've been thinking of writing out another version of the first draft for chapter 2. (That sounds more complicated than it should.) But I'm a coward, so I drew a picture of Snape as a merman instead of, you know, actually writing.

... I think I'm improving...

Winter vacation's started for me today, which is excellent. I have a lot of stuff to do, and only a few weeks to do it in peace.

I finished the coloring for this today. Well, I say finished. I kept stopping and starting over every stupid little bit of shading. I threw the background down just to get it done, and... I think I should shrink Snape and Harry down a bit. Or make the Moai a bit bigger... Or delete the linework around Snape's Dark Mark...

(I'm getting the feeling that it's not finished at all...)

But, hey. I properly used Illustrator for the first time, so that's something.

... I think Photobucket shrunk my picture a bit... damn... 

A Harry Potter ficlet...

Title: Confession Behind the School Building
Author: babygray
Pairing: Snape/Harry... sort of?
Warnings: Typos. No beta. The usual, really.
Disclaimer: This is just fanfiction, non-profit and just for fun.
Notes: Watching Hanamaru Kindergarten the other day, and they mentioned the cliche: love confessions behind the school buildings. Hence the title, and this little ficlet.
Word Count: 623
Summary: Harry returns from the Weasleys with news. Neither Snape nor Potter seem happy about that.

( The snow has stopped and Potter was returning from the Burrow. )

A Harry Potter ficlet...

Title: The Mantis at Prayer
Author: babygray
Pairing: Snape/Harry, Implied Snape/Lily, Harry/Ginny
Warnings: AU (Snape lives) Typos. No beta.
Disclaimer: This is just fanfiction, non-profit and just for fun.
Notes: I was watching 'Jersey Shore' earlier today (yes, yes, it's an atrocious show), and something one of the characters said got stuck in my head. ... Which led to this.
Word Count: 518
Summary: A graveyard in January.

( The night was cold and it was beginning to rain. )

A Harry Potter fic...

Title: Hives
Beta
Author: babygray
Pairing: Snarry
Warnings: Typos. No beta. Sex. BETA
Disclaimer: This is just fanfiction, non-profit and just for fun.
Notes: This story has been on the back burner for over a year. I've been working on it a little lately, but I have a couple of stories still waiting to be finished, and there has to be order, right? (I'm tired. I know I'm not making much sense.) I really kind of like this idea...
Word Count: 247
Premise: EWE, Harry nurses Snape back to health. Snape is allergic to something in his treatment. More lighthearted than anything, with guest appearances from Molly Weasley (not in this snippet) and the Granger Family Singers (also not in this snippet). (Actual singing is not guaranteed.)

( Let's blame Meg Ryan. )

A Harry Potter fic...

Title: Knightsbridge
Author: babygray
Pairing: Severus/Female OC, Harry/Ginny, missed Snarry
Warnings: Typos. No beta. Implied het sex. Mild prostitution.
Disclaimer: This is just fanfiction, non-profit and just for fun.
Notes: I actually did research for this short little thing. Yes, I think that's amazing, too. Mostly, though, I just pulled out names from home and was pleasantly pleased to find their London equivalents perfect for the scenario. Also, if I cared enough, I'll probably write some more, with some actual Snarry and more explicit backstory. But, yeah...
Word Count: 860
Summary: Snape loses a customer and runs into a former student.


( He rubbed some lotion into the inflammation on his neck, gritting his teeth against the sting. )

... to be continued? Uh...

A Harry Potter fic...

Title: Ocean Winds
Author: babygray
Pairing: Snape/Harry

Disclaimer: This is just fanfiction, non-profit and just for fun.
Notes: Watching TV this afternoon, one of the shows were asking 'What do you want to do this summer?' I took it up and rolled with it.
Word Count: 322
Summary: Snape and Potter at the beach, with parasol.

( The rented parasol jerked in the strong ocean winds... )
