11:57a	Fic rec! Way back in August, Fearblaidh wrote "Phantasm," which made me drool with amazement and envy, but somehow kept slipping my mind whenever I went to rec it!

There might be a corrected version on her site, but I confess that its navigation defeated me when I went to look. "Phantasm" is a wonderful, lyric, almost dreamy little HP/SS fic; the author's note reads, "I was trying out a smoother, more sensuous style for this fic. What do you think?" What do I think? I think it was a stunning success. (Comment on this)

What if both parents are logical, science-grounded dentists who've not the slightest idea what to do with a child who can make objects move? "First Signs of Magic" is a neat look at a possible background for Hermione, as well as offering a solution to the question of "What do wizards do when a Muggle child shows magic?" (Comment on this)
