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!

Harry and Hermione get caught up in a dangerous and bizarre scheme cooked up by Bellatrix and Snape. Can this nightmare possibly end well?

    Nice! I liked it! :D Thanks for trying out the challenge!

    Author's Response: Thank you. I will one day expand on the story to meet the challenge better, but the challenge helped me to get past my writer's block, because it was so awesome.

After Harry and Draco's fight Dumbledore doesn't forgive Harry. The school riots and Harry is no longer allowed to be a normal 6th year student. Dumbledore has some ideas to keep the peace, but is angry with the entire school. How do the other teachers react to all of this?

    Fantastic story! I love it!

It's been six years since Harry defeated Voldemort. Unfortunately, he doesn't appear to be staying dead. And he's not the only one . . .

    I never watched Charmed. Will I need to know the show and characters in order to enjoy the story?

    Author's Response: I don't think so. Most of it will probably be explained to Harry and Severus anyway at some point, since it'll all be new to them, too!

Severus Snape is well aware that Harry Potter is his son, just as he is aware of the kind of care he receives at the Dursleys. He is also quite certain that the boy is far better off without him. Most of the time.

Now, if only he could convince Harry.

Title: Chapter 1: Mr. Dursley, I presume? 03 Apr 2015
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    WOW! Fantastic premise! I absolutely love it! The interactions between Harry and Snape are perfect! I am loving this story!!

Title: Chapter 3: You promise? 23 Apr 2015
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    oh wow. I love it! Fantastic!! Horray! He is going to take Harry! I am so giddy with happiness. Awesome development of thought of the characters. Poor little waif Harry. Great job going through Snape's thoughts and the growth in them. Well done, thank you so much for writing and haring this story!

Title: Chapter 4: Nothing? 05 Nov 2015
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    Awwww, so sweet! :) I love it!

Title: Chapter 5: You lied! 05 Nov 2015
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    Awww, I absolutely love it! Fantastic! Fantastic chapter! Great emotions, poor little Harry but things are going to get better, and a bit more difficult. I wonder what Albus will say. And how will Severus react to how Albus reacts? I can't wait to find out! Just utterly fantastic development.

Title: Chapter 8: I promise. 20 Jul 2016
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    Aww, poor Harry but I think Snape was being kind overall. What a mess both Harry and Tilly had managed to get into. I hope that they both will be able to do better in the future!

    I wonder if those older Slytherins would of hurt Harry because they idolize the Dark Lord, or if they are just bad eggs that would of hurt Harry.

    Nice of Snape to sleep on the couch himself, I thought at first it was for Harry but it's sweet for Snape to put Harry in his own room until Harry can get his own. Plus, Snape is less likely to disturb Harry when he is trying to sleep.

    Great chapter. Thanks for the update!

Title: Chapter 7: Too late! 26 Jun 2016
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)
    Ahh, poor Harry. He can't help but get into trouble. Poor Tilly, but I am glad that Snape doesn't allow her to punish herself. It was amusing that Harry saw the armor and wanted to investigate. The painting was inventive, funny that she and Filch tend to have a friendship. I wonder what things in common they talk about. I also wonder if there is a painting of the founders of Hogwarts somewhere. Thanks for the new chapter, it was good!
