Fic Rec Post

I'm reading Harry Potter fanfiction again. And it seems that Checkmated is not now entirely a lost cause. I've found a gem among the Mary Sues. 

The Colors of Fire by Sher
Rating: PG
Status: WIP
Pairing: NL/HA (Canon Pairings)
Summary: Two years after the Battle of Hogwarts, Neville Longbottom and Hannah Abbott's paths cross again. Each is on a journey to rebuild their world; they just didn't realize rebuilding would include each other.

I know, right? Who the hell cares about Neville's love life? I mean, I love Neville Longbottom, but not so much that I'd read a book about his dating tribulations with Hannah Abbot, of all people. So it was purely by co-incidence that I decided to read it, and it's also a co-incidence that it turned out to be an exceptional piece, with excellent character voices and narrative that I can only describe as charismatic. I suggest you give it a try, Neville or no. Chances are that you're going to get sucked in too. 

ALSO, ALL SUPERNATURAL FANS, READ THIS NAAAOW!!!

Muahahahahahahaha! Here be CRACK. And to think I was about to leave SPN fandom too. That'll teach me.
