About me:

Hi, I'm Jan. :D I love Snape and Harry fics, and just mentor fics in general. I first started Potions and Snitches (P&S) as a safe place to find Snape & Harry gen fics without stumbling into Snape and Harry slash (aka Snarry, or HP/SS).

Fandoms that I like to read fanfiction of include: Star Trek, Star Wars, Kung Fu : The Legend Continues, Dragonball Z, Stargate SG1, Batman, Angel, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. I like Gen and Mentor fics mostly. I love hurt/comfort, angst, whump, drama, raw emotions, and vivid descriptions best.

I know how to make and edit graphics, icons, and layouts (html and css). I am a master web searcher. XD

My dreams? One day I'd like to be able to run up a mountain effortlessly, or at least easily. :) I'd like to see Potions and Snitches host every single good Snape and Harry Gen fic there ever existed. I'd like to have people who post here get 100 reviews a chapter. I'd like active-to-the-bursting challenges and contests. I want the site to be a great, fun place that readers of Snape and Harry fics loved and knew as active.

Check out my site, Potions, Snitches and Unlikely Relations! It's a giant rec list of Harry Potter fics, the majority Snape and Harry Gen. Currently, there are 800+ fics listed.

Thanks for visiting my profile! Enjoy the site!

Chocolate frogs!

Wings of Sun by That_One_New_Pokemon starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 26]
Around a young witch or wizard's eleventh birthday they acquire wings, a sign that they have developed their full magic. Many worship their new wings, but to Harry, it's just another sign that he is a freak. Severus Snape is assigned his guardian over the summer before Harry's first year. It is up to him to teach young Harry the ways of the wizarding world and to come to terms with his newfound fame. But there is darkness lurking around every corner, and if Harry is not careful, it will be the last thing he ever knows. Eventual Severitus.

Title: Chapter 1: The Plan 17 Mar 2015
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    Yes!!!! Someone responded to the challenge! Hehe, I wonder what Snape and Bella have in plan for the two. I like how this is structured as setting up a revenge. Delicious beginning.

    Author's Response: Thanks, very short chapters I know, and I would have liked to done more with the story, since I loved your challenge, but as it has been so long since I've written anything, I did very short chapters on purpose, to myself in the groove, but not get overwhelmed.

Title: Chapter 2: Stealth 17 Mar 2015
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    Woah! I was NOT expecting the ending of this chapter - having Snape there suddenly! Nice! Interesting that Hermione was almost put in Slytherin too, well she DOES have ambition! :) good chapter.

    Author's Response: Thank you. Perhaps eventually, I will work on the story and give it more substance, but it helped me enormously to overcome my writer's block,w hich was the purpose. I would like to improve the plot and build the chapters up eventually, but one thing at a time, right?

Title: Chapter 3: Caught! 17 Mar 2015
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)

Title: Chapter 6: Understanding 17 Mar 2015
