Author's Summary: "A murder mystery at Smallville High drives Kon to brush up on his detective skills – and his undercover work. He might need to call in some help. Good thing his best friend is an expert at both."
Review:
When a gay student at Smallville High is beat to death, Kon enlists Tim’s help to solve the case and decides to help the gay students to protect themselves and stand up to prejudice.
Dealing with a situation like homophobia in a small town High School could have been a recipe for disaster, but iesika handles the plot superbly. The murder investigation, while intrinsic to the plot, takes the backseat for a while to deal with the human element of those affected by the tragedy. This is helped by the great character ensemble: the OC's are interesting and fleshed out (Jake and Mr. Dalton, in particular, are absolutely fantastic) and the canon characters very well portrayed. This fic features one of my favorite depictions of Kon ever: still learning how to deal with his double life (especially the "normal" side of it), yet becoming wiser and maturing without losing himself in the process. The way he interacts with Tim is absolutely wonderful and their bond is felt even before the romantic element comes into place.
Great writing, an original plot and wonderful characterization make this the best DC fic I’ve read in months.

Review:
Some indefinite time after the war, Snape asks Harry to help translate a parchment that seems to have Parceltounge symbols on it. Over the months of ensuing research, romance blossoms.
The first half of this fic is a solid, well-written first time romance and if that was all the fic proved to be, I still likely would have recced it (but it wouldn't be a particularly effusive rec).
Then I got to the second half of the fic and was just blown away. No only do you finally get the completed translation of the parchment (which is just about the most awesome thing ever), but you also have some traumatic backstory for Snape that results in lots of lovely hurt/comfort and a slow building relationship between Harry and Snape. The end result is quite moving and wonderful real. Great fic.

Review:
After the war, Snape is put on trial for murdering Dumbledore. Harry comes to his defense and, as a result, Snape is sentenced to five years. With Harry. Whee!
Two men who hate each other (well, sort of) are forced to live in close quarters for a long period of time. What can you say to that but: yay Harlequin! Snape is epsecially good in this fic as he does his best to be the absolute worst possibleprisoner guest ever, while for his part, Harry does his best to be the world's best host. With fantastic cameos from Ron and Hermione, this is just a wonderful feel-good fic to brighten a rainy day.
