Review: "Time and Again," by Sushi
Title: Time and Again
Author: Sushi ([info]wikdsushi)
Pairing Snape/Harry and Harry/Ginny
Rating: NC 17
Warnings Infidelity. Wait, that's not a warning, is it? For some, it's an attraction


This story manages to do quite a few things, and makes it all look easy. It's completely DH-compliant, Snarry, and (as day follows night, since we last left Harry in a distinctly married condition, back in that travesty she called the epilogue) it includes a serious spot of infidelity.

My cup runs over.

But even more than the cheap thrill of a kink hit square-on, what I relished about this story was its casual, profound grasp of the realities of adult life. Harry and Ginny feel like a long-married couple here. And Harry's tentative, sometimes awkward interactions with his children . . . well, yes. Sometimes that's just how it feels to deal with the walking timebombs called adolescents. The emotions here are complex and meaty.

And the ending . . . . well, it's not sad. What more can one ask for (realistically) with this pairing, eh?

Check it out. It's just what the doctor ordered, as far as I'm concerned.
