Codes and More Choices

Welcome to the Potions and Snitches (P&S) Fanfiction archive.

It's time to renew our hosting plan. If you would like to contribute some funds, here is our P&S donation page! Thank you so much!

This is the home for stories exploring the general relationship between Severus Snape and Harry Potter. You will be able to find Mentor fics, Father and Son fics, and similar type stories in the archive. MA rated fics are not allowed on this site, nor is SS/HP slash (SS/HP romantic or sexual content). Gen means nonslash.

Chocolate frog ratings: When submitting a review, you will have the option of rating the story as well, from 1-10. A ten is a fantastic, ridiculously awesome chapter that you are going to want to reread; a five should be an average story, which translates to 2.5 frogs.

Story of the Moment
It's Better In the Dark by LucidDreamer10 T
THREE-SHOT! When Harry returns to Privet Drive he is not the same person. Still mourning his godfathers death, Harry tries to survive the summer in tact. Rated T for adult themed language and abuse from the Dursleys.

Using what I know of baking, I'm pretty sure a pastie is a kind of Danish. It's meant to be like an opened top hand pie.or a v smol crostata.

So, like a savory, pumpkin, hand pie? I don't know why that's so hard for me to picture, lol!

I thought it was mashed or pureed pumpkin.

How is the pumpkin filling prepared? Is it mashed, or cubed? Cubed for some reason sounds better savory, but I suppose it doesn't matter. Lol

I never really thought about it until the poll and then had to look it up. I would've thought sweet at first, but that's a pastry, not a pastie...

Stiles, to start your own fanfiction archive you have to purchase a website first. If you don't have money, then I suggest you use FFN or AO3 and just post your stories there.

shadowienne I can't find your latest e-mail. The last one I have is from January 13 and I last email replied to you February 7th. Maybe mine went to spam?

Also, for those on mobile, note that the site presents better when you switch to "Desktop View."
