The past couple of nights, I've had the chance to chat with ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) joannindiw and/or mendax,neither of whom I've had the opportunity to chat with in far too long. Yay, chat! for chat leads to chat!fic, and chat!fic is a wonderful thing.
Last night, mendax told me she had come up with a prompt for me to write some Gatch for her... but, woe! she had forgotten the prompt in the course of her busy day. :-( Her replacement prompt was not something I had expected. She said, I’m in the mood to read something soothing. One of those happy slice-of-life things, or moments of discovery, or connection, but I don’t know how to phrase it.
Something soothing. With Gatch. My jaw dropped - what did she think I was, a miracle worker? Then my lazy muse got intrigued - was it even possible? So I tried. This is the result, which mendax said I had to post. ^^ Beware o' slash.
( A soothing slice of Gatch )

Recipe: The Perfect Cup of Tea

Title: In the Night Kitchen
Artist: Karasu Hime
Excerpt: Um, I have no idea how to do a thumbnail, so here's the link = http://www.ssf-moonshadow.com/art/archives/InterludeinKitchen.jpg
Commentary: I always pictured this as an exhausted Severus avoiding Hogwarts and sneaking into Grimmauld Place instead. He goes to the kitchen to relax in the quiet, gather his thoughts while nursing a strong cup of black tea. Now tea isn't just throwing the bag in hot water straight out of the microwave. To really enjoy tea, you have to do it right and have the right tea! For this, I imagine Severus going for a black tea, slightly biting to wake his senses up and loaded with caffeine to keep him going just a little bit longer.
Source: Alton Brown's Perfect Cup of Tea Recipe @ http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/perfect-cup-of-tea-recipe/index.html
Ingredients:
4 heaping teaspoons loose tea
4 cups water
Instructions:
Place loose tea leaves into a warmed tea kettle. Pour heated water over loose tea leaves. Let steep. Strain tea and serve.
*Note: For Oolong and Green tea, water should simmer at 200 degrees F. and 180 degrees F.
*For Irish and English tea bring water to a full boil.
*Black tea should soak for 3 to 5 minutes. Oolong tea should soak for 4 to 7 minutes. Green Tea should soak for 2 to 3 minutes.

In desperate need...

My Co-Ed Naked FanFiccing Slytherin stainless steel travel mug from Fiction Alley aeons ago broke last week. It wobbles. I need a new mug, preferably something Harry Potter. It has to have a lid too, per work's requirements on liquids in the office. I would like my fellow Snupiners to let me know if there are any Snupin, Snape or Lupin travel mugs somewhere that I can snag up for my morning tea drinking enjoyment. I am most desolate and hate my boring, unadorned cheapo from KMart. The nasty thing. It has no niftyness, durn it!
Mayhap we should do one for the group? Some nifty Snupiny setup? It must be work safe, of course...
Thoughts? Advice? Help for the pitiful?

Today is a very special day, as we all know. Not only is it Halloween, a favorite holiday for many of us, but it's Lore's birthday! That's plenty of reason for Snupiners everywhere to celebrate all by itself!
As a gift, scribbulus_ink and I have written a fic, which we'll be posting over the next few days. We hope you enjoy, darling - happy birthday and thank you for all the fantastic things you do for Snupin and for being a fantastic friend!
Title: Takes the Cake (part I)
Pairing: Remus/Severus
Summary: A special competition on the high successful cable show "Takes the Cake" pits two-time winner Severus Snape against equally successful Remus Lupin. As things heat up in the kitchen, will Remus be able to convince Severus that they share more than just a passion for baking?

Title: White Shades, Black Morning (the In-Between Place Remix)
Author: snegurochka_lee
Pairings: Remus/Severus, with implied Remus/James/Sirius
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: ~750
Warnings: Infidelity, but you might also view it as simply non-exclusivity, depending on your goggles.
Summary: You get him in the shadowed times, those precious, hidden hours between dawn and eternity when the castle sleeps, or the Quidditch pitch roars, or the sweet, gummy stains of Honeydukes drip from fingers too far away to care where he is.
Notes: Written for the All (Re)Mixed Up Challenge at ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) hp_unfaithful, this is a remix of purple_chalk's enchanting fic, five shades of white.
