hp_springsmut recs! Other springsmut recs can be found under my springsmut tag.

These are two wonderful reads with sadly few comments.

Title: The Girl in the Formal Dress
Rating: R/NC17
Pairing(s): Scorpius/Lily (II)
Warnings: Mild bondage
Word Count: ~7,800 words

I adore Lily Luna Potter, and this is one of most interesting characterizations I've seen. She is entirely compelling and yet distant - that is not to say she is cold, the complete opposite she is steaming hot - but a complete enigma to both the reader and to Scorpius. She's irresistible. Like Scorpius, we don't really need all the details to fall in love.


Title: Mirror Inverted
Rating: NC-17
Pairings: Teddy/Snape, Lupin/Snape (non-graphic Teddy/Victoire, Lupin/Tonks)
Warnings: Infidelity, obsession, dwelling on dreams. Rimming, voyeurism.
Word Count: ~ 9,700

In this fic Teddy journeys from the sorting feast to well into adult life, learning about his father and trying to accept the reality of who Remus Lupin was and why his dear father looked so old and sad in all the pictures. Headmaster Snape follows him, unasked for and unwanted through his discoveries. A wonderful look at the Mirror of Erised.

More hp10k_showcase recs later. We are getting into fics that I didn't read pre-posting and I'm falling way behind.
