Ginger Lust

Title: More than a little and less than enough
Creator: tjs_whatnot
Rating: NC-17
Pairing/characters: Ron/Draco, Ron/Gideon Crumb, Remus/Severus, Remus/Severus/Ron
Warnings/content: Highlight to read *voyeurism, angst, threesomes, first times*
Word count: 32,000 + 12 song soundtrack
Summary: Sometimes, the way you find what you want, is to first find the things you don't.

Notes: I once made a joke that when I wrote a story containing my personal OT3 of Ron, Remus and Severus, I would retire from fandom. And, while I don't think that's necessarily going to happen, this story does feel like it's a bit of a final farewell. At least it came out that way, as it refused to come neat and quick, instead it meanders and delves into places I had no intention of taking it. I hope though, that it will entertain and perhaps make the seemingly impossible of the three of these fine and remarkable men finding their peace together seem possible. Canon deviations, while slight (with the exception of them all surviving the war, of course) are intentional and hopefully won't distract too awkwardly. Finally and perhaps most importantly, thank you so much to my betas, Whatnot Cospirators and best girls, redsnake05 and la_dissonance for making the best in me better and for indulging me in all my craziest schemes. And while they are extraordinary in many ways, they are not miracle-workers, all remaining mistakes are mine alone.

Prompt: And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you. Friedrich Nietzsche

Title: Nothing Ever Lasts Forever
Creator: hull1984
Rating: PG13
Beta: incoherenteye (thank you, you were great)
Pairing(s)/Characters: Ron/Draco, Ron/Viktor (minor), Harry, Blaise
Genre: Non-Magic AU, humorous (I hope)
Warnings/content: Excessive use of the f-word, minor use of a recreational drug
Medium/Word Count: 16,274
Summary: Ron and Harry meet while they are both on an exchange year at an American university. They have never met each other, or Blaise and Draco, before this story starts.
Notes: Okay, so when I picked the prompt I was feeling a bit angst-ridden. This passed. And then I just couldn’t find my inner-emo. After much bashing of head against hard surfaces, I decided the best way to go was ironic. However, I like to think I have retained the spirit of the prompt - Ron really isn’t enjoying his life at the start of this story and he kind of likes to share the misery. Title from the song by Echo And The Bunnymen. There are random bandom cameos (because I just can’t seem to help myself).
Prompt: It is an illusion that youth is happy, an illusion of those who have lost it: but the young know they are wretched, for they are full of the truthless ideals which have been instilled into them and each time they come into contact with the real they are bruised and wounded. - W. Somerset Maugham

Title: A Boy and His Trauma and His Dog
Creator: deathjunke
Rating: R
Pairing(s)/Characters: None; Ron, Harry, Remus, Sirius, Dursleys, Millicent, Blaise, OC
Genre: Gen, Non-Magic AU

Medium/Word Count: 11,950 words, 1 vid, 1 image
Summary: Sometimes in life you get stuck in a rut. It’s all about and trying to pick up your baggage and move on.
Notes: This project was a pain in the ass. I had the idea and a story line and it started flowing then I got a block. Block ended and I made progress but my computer crashed. I lost almost half of what I wrote, my original story line and most of the detail in my flash. After that I didn’t know how to move the story to where I wanted it to go but I was lucky and it took on a mind of its own. It didn’t go how I originally had planned but overall I’m not too upset with the direction it took.
Prompt:
"I've been roaming around always looking down at all I see.
Painted faces fill the places I can't reach.
You know that I could use somebody"
- Kings of Leon, Use Somebody
