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!

Acceptance by DaughterOfAres starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 59]

It all started with an unexpected meeting at King's Cross at the end of Harry's first year. The next thing Severus Snape knows he's stuck with the Potter brat.

    Haha! I loved the Star Trek reference at the end. I loved how Snape was stuck with Harry and all the other teachers were not willing to even entertain him. They were DONE with students for the summer. LOL.

    Poor Harry.


Title: Chapter 3: Directions and Questions 27 Mar 2024
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)

    Woah I love this. Harry is a delightful 11 year old, in character version of himself. Snape is just obviously overwhelmed. You write everyone so well. I hope Snape gets better at this parenting thing soon. I'm surprised that Harry isn't just melting down over and over again, but I suppose he is conditioned to put up with bad situations.


Title: Chapter 4: The Sagacity of Filius Flitwick 27 Mar 2024
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)

    Awwww, so cute. Harry is so cheeky.

    I love the backstory and the fleshed out history and responses of Snape and even Petunia earlier. 

    So why does Harry wear glasses if Snape doesn't?


Title: Chapter 5: The Steadfastness of Pomona Sprout 27 Mar 2024
Reviewer: Jan_AQ (Signed)

    Awwww, I loved this. I liked both conversations with both teachers equally. Even McGonagall was good.

    Oh wow. 

    This was so powerful, so heart breaking.

    Harry being tricked that way - it's so in character. So tragic. Is he truly gone?
