I'm a bit late to the party, but there's still a bit of time left before the day is through. I wanted to wish a very happy birthday to a wonderful writer and fandom inspiration. Normally I'd offer a gift as well, but I'm so behind on so many projects that to promise something soon would not only be unfair but also a downright lie. Anyway, I hope you had a wonderful, marvelous, spectacular day! :D

Title: Hall Pass
Artist: aleoninc
Rating: PG
Pairing(s)/character(s): Lupin, Snape
Challenge: Remus' birthday? Not really.
Disclaimer: I do not own these characters, but not for lack of trying. They're just impossible to purchase.
Warnings: Mild language
Notes: This is only tangentially related to Remus' birthday insomuch as I scribbled it this evening (the 10th) while I was at work. Mostly, it was just a really quiet night and I had some time to kill.

(Late one night in 1993...)

I know your birthday was on the 1st, but I wanted to doodle you a little something for being, well, generally awesome and loltastic. So in your honor, I present my first (and probably only) Sneville.

Title: Professor Longbottom
Characters: Neville Longbottom/Severus Snape
Rating: PG, more for implication than anything. Total crack.
Warnings: ...(im)proper use of a riding crop? *cringes*
Disclaimer: Not my characters or my paring, but both borrowed with love.
Notes: Let's pretend Snape didn't die at the end of Deathly Hallows and instead continued to teach at Hogwarts after the war when Neville Longbottom took over the Herbology position. Yes? Yes. ;)

Another Wednesday, another smutty submission for Hump Day. Hooray porn!

Artist: aleoninc
Title: Lubricus
Theme: Wandless Magic [Note - this links to the entry on the Hump Day Smut community, where you can see all of this week's submissions, so feel free to comment and leave the other artists some love]
Character(s): Remus Lupin/Severus Snape
Rating: Hard R, no actual bits shown, but still probably not safe for work
Notes: Lubricus (loō brə kəs) from the Latin, meaning 'slippery'. A massive thanks to Tripperfunster for waiting on my late ass. Also, this is the first time in, well, years that I've attempted to draw a proper comic with layered panels and such. Please excuse the complete lack of straight lines, for details like that actually require planning ahead. :|

( It seemed like a good idea at the time )

...but that doesn't mean the pr0n is. Here's my entry for this week's Hump Day Smut. The theme: Classical Art

Artist: aleoninc
Title: The Sunbathers, 1978
Character(s): Sirius Black, Regulus Black (but not like that)
Rating: I'd say a hard R for full frontal nudity (though not of a sexual nature). NOT WORK SAFE!
Media: pencil & sketchbook, Adobe Photoshop for color
Notes: Whilst doing an image search for inspiration with this assignment, I came across the stunning nude young men works of Henry Scott Tuke. Needless to say, I searched no more. ;) This picture was based off of Tuke's painting The Sunbathers, which practically screamed Sirius "Showboat" Black. *Tsk* Look at what a bad influence he is on dear, modest Regulus.

(Follow the peen)

P.S. Be sure to drop a line and let all of this week's artists know how fabulous they are!

I'm super late with the update, as usual, but here are the gifts I drew for these two exchanges.

Yuletart
Title: Dream of the Endless
Gift for: sillyshy
Rating: G
Fandom: The Sandman
Characters: Dream

Snupin Santa
Title: Keep Moving (an illustration based on the fic of the same same name)
Gift for: marauderswolf
Rating: G
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters: Remus Lupin and Severus Snape

Also many, many thank yous to both telophase and _rufus_ for my gifts. Beautiful art and beautiful writing; how on earth did I get so lucky?! XD

On a completely different note, after reading snegurochka_lee's latest entry about creating masterlists of art/fic/whatever and feeling properly guilty about it, I've decided to actually start using the art community I created . . . a really long time ago. I need to mull over how best to organize things so it will be a while before it's up and running. Stay tuned to this channel for further updates. And now, we return you to our regularly scheduled programming.

All Snupin, because I am boring and predictable. I LIED! :D

Fic
Five Arguments by westernredcedar - PG
A series of adorable Snupin drabbles inspired by a pic I did. Funny, cute, and bitingly clever. Seriously, how lucky am I? Very.

For Severus Snape, in the Event of My Death by snegurochka_lee - R, NWS
DH-compliant, so . . . you know . . . with the deaths and all. Lee doing what she does best: heart-wrenchingly doomed romance that will profoundly impact the way you see the characters in (and out of) canon. Beautiful.

And All because the Snapey Loves... by geek6 - G
Another entry from the lupin_snape Trading Places Challenge. You can't help but smile when you read this, especially when you see the source materials (neodandiesrule's art which this story was based on and the Milk Tray advertisement linked at the end of the fic). Hilarious!

Art
Haku from Spirited Away by my mystery Yuletart artist - G
GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS! GORGEOUS!
Did I mention gorgeous?

Title: Early Morning Snuggle
Artist: aleoninc
Rating: PG-13 (more for implication than for anything actually shown)
Pairing: Lupin/Snape
Notes: Just a little doodle-doo for rufus, who prompted me with "snuggle/cuddle sex" in the chatroom last night. You are pretty much seeing it raw. When I draw, I usually sketch it out in red pencil first and then go over with a regular pencil. When I scan, I usually take the red part out in photoshop, leaving only the black outline behind, but I kind of like the way it all looked together with this one. So...

Mood:	exhausted
Music:	"Kill Da Bills: Volume 1" - Leslie & the LY's

Title: Depth of Focus
Rating: PG
Characters: Remus Lupin
Challenge: lupin_snape's Trading Places challenge
Summary: It happened more perfectly than Severus could have imagined. He eased the camera out from the sheets just as Remus cocked his head to the side and looked directly at him, eyes full of that heady resolve Severus had fallen into at the restaurant, that deep, hard passion. His finger pressed the shutter release and Severus knew. He had just taken a perfect photograph.
Notes: An illustration for westernredcedar's gorgeous fic Depth of Focus. This was actually just supposed to be a quick sketch to map out the picture before I started the final, but I liked the sketch so well that it ended up becoming the final (albeit cleaned up quite a bit). Like Severus, I felt that I had just captured the perfect snapshot of Remus in that moment and I knew that any other attempt probably wouldn't cut it. At least, I hope I did. :P

Title: Blow This Out
Author: aleoninc
Rating: Hard R/NC-17
Pairings: Snape/Lupin
Warnings: Full frontal nudity. Also, this is a LARGE IMAGE. Sorry about exploding your modem.
Summary: It's Severus's birthday and Remus has a gift for him.
Notes: Drawn for the January 9th edition of Hump Day Smut - theme: Snape's Birthday. I highly recommend taking a peek and celebrating everyone's favorite Potions master in all his glory. There are some really great pieces this week, so comment and show all the artists love.

Also, this year's birthday comic makes a small reference back to last year's contribution. Enjoy! ;)

Okay guys, I give up being thecheshirecat. I was stupidly trying to change identities and all I ended up doing was confusing the hell out of people. So, here I am as me. Viola!

Title: Snupin Elves
Artist: aleoninc
Rating: G as G can be (but with perhaps just a dash of innuendo)
Characters: Lupin, Snape, and a candy cane
Disclaimer: Not my characters, of course, but you already knew that.
Warnings: Um . . . wide eyed innocence? *blinks*
Notes: This is the full piece that I did for the fest icons that lore made. The color palette is so light that it was kind of hard to shrink down and I do feel bad about giving poor lore the task of trying to make it look good. Sorry about that, dear. I'll do better next time. :P

(Why ever don't you enjoy the holidays, Severus?)
