“You took a bad fall during quidditch yesterday,” Snape said worriedly. “At Harry’s. Al hit you with a lucky bludger. You just—you wouldn’t wake up. That was yesterday.”
“Al?”
Snape looked confused. “Yeah, Al.”
“Who’s Al?”
Snape recoiled. “That’s not funny.”
“I don’t know any Al,” Sirius said irritably. “And I don’t know why you would be here at my bloody bedside even if Grimmauld Place did have a quidditch pitch, and if you haven’t forgotten we’re on opposite sides of a bloody war!”
Omg Hi , I literally love all of your fics and both the ships you write and I was hopping to ask you about 2 of your fics. In Tastes like candy I’m pretty sure you made it a one shot and are not likely to continue it (which is fine ) but do you have any idea or perspective on what you think would take place after and how Sirius and Severus realtionship would progress(or not ) or does Sirius actually choose to stop seeing sev after the wedding or even does Severus ever gain some type of feelings for Sirius ? And secondly (hoping this is not to much 😭) in your catholic Severus au do you plan to continue it ever with a longer story or do you plan on keeping it a series of one shot WICH I LOVE . If you respond thank you so much I love your work ☺️
If I respond? How could I not haha? Thank you so much for your ask. I love answering them and I am over the moon that you enjoy my work 🫶

Although I never say never, I admit to not having any immediate plans to expand on Tastes Like Candy.
However……
Sirius’ wedding is like three weeks away—the venue is booked, the guests are excited—and he doesn’t even make it to the altar 💀 He calls it off like three days in advance because Severus is right, Marlene isn’t his type. Don’t get him wrong, she’s great and will make someone—a better man—very happy but he isn’t that guy. He likes an omega who’ll try anything, let him do whatever he wants, is a little reckless. He doesn’t care if there’s a price. Nothing in life is free. So, basically, before the wedding, he’s at the strip club whenever he can be, paying Severus thousands to do increasingly depraved and slutty things.
NSFW Warning ⚠️
And then one day—after Severus lets him pour champagne into his pussy and then lets him drink it out of him—the omega tells him that he was projecting that day in the club.
It isn’t that he thought Sirius wished Marlene was him. It’s that he wished that he was Sirius’ omega. He wanted to be Marlene.
And like, who is Sirius kidding? When you know you know. He wanted Severus since the first time he saw him. He was only holding back because he didn’t want to be that guy that believes the stripper loves him. And also, he was engaged but that’s whatever. Carpe Diem. If the omega is offering himself up on a silver platter, then who is he not to partake?
They end up eloping four months after his cancelled wedding date. He concedes that it would be a little tasteless to just keep the original wedding sans Marlene.
And Severus ends up quitting—stripping and his day job as a teaching assistant at a local primary school (Sirius was surprised by that one) because upon opening up a joint bank account, the omega’s eyes widened at the balance, and he turned to his new alpha and told him that since Sirius has so much money, for the first time in his life, he’s going to take the time to figure out what he actually wants to do and… that turns out to be nothing essentially because they soon discover that Sirius had knocked him up basically the first time they fucked.
Oops.
But Severus being pregnant does go a long way to helping his friends and family ignore the fact that he—after giving James and Regulus so much shit about being awful cheaters—he betrayed his fianceé and left her for a stripper.
Guess it runs in the family 🤷♀️

At the moment, I plan for my Catholic AU to be a series of oneshots but it’s on the backburner because I’m focused on Milk Teeth and also I am out of inspo haha. I don’t really know what happens next. If you have any ideas/requests, feel free to throw them at me!
one makes a joke, and everyone else in the room is just bloody horrified like, 'damn... that's immoral, you can't laugh about that.'
and the other one is just torn between thinking that it was an absolutely hilarious and brilliant, but he hates the man and isn't going to support him in anything.
oh my god, i just realized you have an inbox open and my brain has been melting over the world-building!! first of all: severus's job. does he actually want his job, or is it purely for survival? like he doesn’t want to depend on an alpha? i'm trying to gauge exactly how progressive this society is because the contrast between sev working and narcissa being a stay-at-home omega is fascinating. is that just the malfoys being old-fashioned, or is lucius making an exception for him? also, what exactly does sirius mean when he says he never said he wasn’t traditional? kinda ominous honestly haha. and like, he seemed sorta judgmental of sev agreeing to his alpha having another mate but if he’s traditional then wouldn’t he be ok with it? sorry for throwing so much at you at once, i am just obsessed with this fic!!
Firstly, I adore you for sending this in!
To answer your wonderful questions.
1.
No. Sev does not care about his job. He likes the prestige, like being the CPO and an omega one at that. And he likes the money (although it stresses him out that he’ll never have as much money as someone like Lucius who’s funds have been accumulating for hundreds of years) but his job is first and foremost about his financial and social security. His alpha doesn’t love him (nevermind that he doesn’t love Lucius) and they don’t have any children so Severus is keenly aware that Lucius could throw him away at any moment.
2.
It’s hard to describe how progressive society is. Generally, I would say it’s less progressive than modern day England. After all, polygamy is perfectly legal if not widely practiced. Lucius probably isn’t a good measure. He doesn’t necessarily think omegas should work outside the home but Sev isn’t his trophy, Narcissa is. Besides, he is politically active and he does like how Sev working at Horcrux Solutions looks. It lets him straddle the fence and pick the winning side. Having two mates gives him points with traditionalists and having a high-powered omega wins him points with more progressive members.
3.
As for Sirius, genuinely quite traditional but as for that one aspect of traditionalism, he can’t get on board with it because he is obsessed with Sev and thinks that Lucius having another mate is offensive if his other mate is Sev who he wants so badly. He’s just being judgy because he thinks Sev needs to stand up haha. I’d like to add that in this fic, Sirius did temporarily break away from his family as a teenager like in canon but they did succeed in sucking him back in so all I can say is that when he said that he never claimed not to be traditional, he is basically saying he is traditional with the same intensity that the Black’s are blood purists in canon. Make of that what you will and thank you so much for your ask 😂😌
Hi! Please help me look for a fic! I know I saved it in my phone but I forgot the name @@
It's a time-travelling! Severus Snape with Snirius as the main pairing.
A bit more details about the book: Snape time-travels after the Sectumsempra incident in 6th year under Dumbledore's orders. He knows about all the horcruxes because Dumbledore told him before the trip. Back in time, Snape doesn't immediately work with Dumbledore until he gives him one of the horcruxes and asks for a reward to change his last name into Prince. After Hogwarts and getting his mastery earlier than in the original, Snape offers the Prince Manor that he inherited to Dumbledore for the OotP as headquarters.
For the Snirius part, their first shag was after a yule party where Snape gave them the location of the ROR to hold the party there. Remus and Sirius stayed in Hogwarts for the Christmas break. After one of their many shags months after their first one, Snape gets post-sex clarity that he's a 30+ year old man in a 17 year old body, shagging an actual 17 year old so he kinda breaks things off with Sirius. They get back together after Snape rescued Regulus from the locket debacle. (<- unsure about this one but this did happen) I think it's a Sub! Sirius Black. Idk if it's tagged or not.
The appeal of some ship pairings is that they're more toxic than a nuclear explosion, man. If you write an AU where none of the shit they've done to each other ever happened, then what the hell's the point?
“What changed?”
“Oh, Snivelly, you poor naive idiot. Do you need me to spell it out?” He directed a contemptuous look towards her over his shoulder. She surprised him by not being surprised in the least; she was dissecting his words, tasting them on her tongue.
“You don't deserve it, by the way. Her grace. Not after what you did.”
Her small fists clenched on her knees, her knuckles turning white.
“And what do you deserve, after what you’ve done? Ever asked yourself that?”
Sirius grapples with insomnia, inconvenient family ghosts, old mistakes, and a forced proximity to the most insufferable fledgling Dark Witch that ever existed. The latter may prove a far more hazardous experience.
