Yet Another Severus_Shorts Rec
The writers at the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
severus_shorts fest have come up with yet another jaw-droppingly excellent story. Called No Room for the Weak, this one features Eileen, Severus, and Harry. The plot and the characterizations and especially the language have left me breathless.
I'm running out of superlatives for these stories, so let me just quote a teaser paragraph (Eileen's pov; "he" is Harry):
Blinking, he washed down the wad of bread. His grotesque deliberation reminded her of a snake choking down its prey, the way you could see the creature's outline in the snake's gullet. Thoughts of snakes led to visions of her gangly lad sitting there in Potter's place, long black hair like some Muggle piker with a plug-in guitar, only his throat would be one horrible red mess, and the tablecloth with it.
