I thought I might do recs for every week of

merry_smutmas. Of course, it turned out that I couldn't wait a whole week to start! Maybe I'll do them every Saturday.

Fic

With Worldly Hands (NC-17, Sirius/Harry) by Anonymous
This fic is intense, unsettling, and VERY good. I said: "One of the things that's incredible about this fic is how little we hear from Harry, and that's not a fault. Because this is all about Sirius, his solipsism, his narcissism. We see Harry only as Sirius sees him -- as James who he loved, as the youth he was robbed of, as the past he can't have back. He is using Harry, and I believe he knows that, but as he tells us, he is beyond stopping himself."

Art

More Gifts to Come (R, Snape/Harry, NOT WORKSAFE) by Anonymous
Well, it's not really anonymous if you keep up on HP slash art at all -- the style is unmistakeable! This absolutely bowled me over, though; I think it's one of her best works. The heat is in their amazing stylized faces, in the look they're sharing. *can't stop ogling*

Oh, and happy birthday,
