Random question - HP/SS related

[runespoor]

Okay, so it probably doesn't show much, but HP/SS is one of my OTPs (yes, I'm one of these multiple-OTP kind of person. Not only am I picky and intolerant, I am also obsessive-compulsive. Or something.) and I've read, huh, many, many, many fics about that ship. (Not enough, alas, but there are only so many hours in a day.)

So here's my question: where are the HP/SS fics from Snape's PoV? Does that even exist? If it does, can anyone send me a link?

That's almost like why-are-there-so-little-Snape-going-after-Harry-fics. (But I've experimented some first hand, so I know that exist.)

I wonder if it has anything to do with us, HP/SS writers. (I'm counting myself in because I say so. Dinosaur privilege and all that. The fics never got finished, I am well aware of that.) Could it be because we can identify more with Harry when he's lusting-after/looking-up-to/call-it-what-you-want Snape than the reverse? I imagine the question I'm more or less dancing around is: aren't we more attracted by Snape than we are by Harry? And yet it's not true. Every good fic provides good reasons for Snape's feelings for Harry. That's why they're good. (That may also be that I'm an easily contented reader and I like my happy ending just as much as your next fangirl after my angst, but I won't begin second-guessing myself.)

Just lookin' if anyone knows where I could read such fics.

Most by other writers I could list have all been provided already! However...

Rushlight has not long finished Walking the Mirror's Edge (on her LJ), the Snape POV version of her Through a Shattered Mirror (at
http://slashcity.org/rushlight/mirror.htm).

Then there's Diana Williams's A Better Offer and its sequel The Unhappiest Potions Master on Earth, which are comedy. Both on her website, http://diana.slashcity.com.

For an AU, try LinW (Nesting Hedwig)'s The Perfect Wife at http://www.kardasi.com/HPSS/Wave-4/linw_wife.htm, for which you need a password; to get it join the Kardasi-security y!group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kardasi-security/).

Chamaeleo wrote Unnatural - Expanded, which is Snape's POV version of the original story by Lexin and Tidmag (Unnatural). Now where are they - the original can now be found on Detention (http://individum.com/snarry/fiction/000344.php); maybe try Ink Stained fingers for the other?

I wrote one myself, Master and Man, which is both Snape's POV and Snape going after Harry (in a very Slytherin don't-put-the-blame-on-me way, of course). See my Skyehawke page http://www.skyehawke.com/archive/authors.php?no=427. You'll find Alliance there too, where Snape's POV alternates with Harry's in separate episodes.

Mmh, recs and links... I've read some of them (and loved A Better Offer) but I think it's time I reread them.

Thank you very much!
