These are a few scenes from a story I’ve started writing. If I've got it right, today's the free-post day.
Title: Working title is From Embers and Ashes
Characters: Severus Snape, Rupert Giles, Anya, Xander
Rating: Gen
Setting: BtVS Season 5 in The Magic Box, Giles’ car, and then Giles’ apartment.
Summary: Severus Snape ends up in Sunnydale. This story should end up Anya/Severus but as it’s set in BtVS season 5 it’ll be a while heading in that direction. Timelines have shifted and this is two to three years after the Battle of Hogwarts. In the scene prior to this, Severus was bitten by Glory’s snake.
Author’s Notes:
These are early drafts of the scenes so I’d especially love to know what you think of them.
There’s a Cabin Pressure / Iron Man crossover made up of 150 drabbles. I sort of wanted to do something like that here but pure drabbles weren’t working for what I wanted to do. But every once in a while, I do try for short chapters.
The story starts with Nagini biting Severus and there are a number of chapters getting Severus to Sunnydale. This is as far as I’ve written. I’m currently working out the plot for the rest of the story.
( Severus had never truly appreciated how much danger Potter and Weasley had been in that night they’d flown the automobile to Hogwarts. Granted Giles’ car travelled slowly compared to wizarding transportation, but barreling over roads in a non-sentient hunk of metal? It was a miracle any muggles survived. )
