Next Gen Recs for February 2011 Crack Broom

[ART]

Title: Touch
Artist: ericahpfa
Rating: NC-17
Pairing: Teddy Lupin/James Potter
Artist's Website: Artist's deviantArt Gallery
Why you chose this piece:

This art is based on the delicious fic The Feel of It by mindabbles, which I recced here the last time I had the Next Gen crack broom and it captured the sexyness of that fic perfectly. This artist's style is absolutely one of my favourites and her take on the next gen kids makes me squirm in delight. A gorgeous, erotic piece.

I love the gorgeous colours in this and the sweet surprised look on Lily's face.

[FIC]

Title: Variations on the Word Sleep
Author: paddynmoon
Length/Word Count: ~6.8k
Alternate Links to Fic/Art: none
Pairing: Teddy/James Jr
Rating: NC-17
Author's Website: Author’s masterlist
Why everyone should read this:

Do mind the warnings on this one, the non-con and chan are because of the fic is about James having somnophilia kink that he develops at a young age (15) when sharing a room with Teddy (who is 20). James falls into this kink a bit ‘accidentally’ and the fic is about his struggle to give it up. It’s hot and dirty and very wrong.

Title: Where The Story Starts

Pairing: Teddy/James II
Rating: R
Author's Website: Author's Next Gen writing Tag
Why everyone should read this:

This is a story told in reverse. It's a fascinating look at a very complicated relationship. As we travel backwards with the pair we see all the bumps and bruises along the way and everything that they've had to overcome to get the happy ending (or rather the happy beginning) that we've already read. Well done and interesting read.

Title: Betrayal is a Thorny Crown (You Wear It Well)
Author: snegurochka_lee
Length/Word Count: ~9k
Pairing: Teddy/James
Rating: NC-17
Author's Website: Author's Masterlist
Why everyone should read this:

This is a remix of fleshdress's delicious Bruised Like a Cherry (Ripe as a Peach) [warning: chan, James is 15]. This is a fascinating look at '5 years after the HEA', as in the Happily Ever After that could not possibly have been easily achieved because James was 15 in the original fic, and just where do you go from there? This looks at Teddy breaking James's heart and then bumping into him years later. The tension and hurt and undeniable heat between them makes for a fabulous encounter.

Title: Step by Step (A Beginners Guide to Bringing James Potter to Your Bed)
Author: gryffindor_j
Length/Word Count: 4700
Pairing: Teddy/Scorpius, James/Scorpius, mention of Teddy/James, Teddy/James/Scorpius
Rating: NC-17
Author's Website: Author's Masterlist
Why everyone should read this:

Surprisingly complex characterizations for a PWP, as Scorpius becomes something of a pawn in a thing between ex-lovers Teddy and James. But he also holds his own, seducing James not only because Teddy asks him to, but because he knows what he wants himself. Also, there are hot boys doing accounting together. What more do you need?

yay, for Teddy/James II fics, which is a pairing i am surprisingly quite partial, i must admit. *sigh* how it creeps up on you. XD

They pretty much dominated this month's recs, yeah? oops! But It's so hard with cross gen not qualifying and you can't rec AS/S or Scorp/Rose anymore! So yeah... doesn't leave a lot that I read.
