Master Green Eyes - Snape/Harry [NC-17] by![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)

[warning for off-screen Mpreg]
I'll be perfectly blunt. I don't like Mpreg. Truthfully, until they invent a word stronger than hate, I'll have to be happy with that. The very concept of a man giving birth escapes me. And will continue to escape me long after I've left fandom.
I wanted to hate this fic. No, really, I did. But try as I might, I just couldn't. Master Green Eyes is simply too compelling a story.
You're shocked, I know. Believe me, so am I. I'll be lucky to even recover from this. But sometimes these little surprises creep up on us, and we're loath to ignore their charms.
Flic doesn't waste valuable time explaining ridiculous notions of imaginary wombs and birth canals. Instead, she comes up with a fairly non-descript concept that's plausible within the magical realm. And she handles it in a mature fashion.
Instead, she gets right to the heart of the matter and gives us Aurelius Prince, the unassuming stringy-haired boy who comes to Hogwarts and sorts Gryffindor. Harry is thoroughly convinced the boy is Snape's and sets off on his own to quell his curiosity. Not much of a mystery there, but the bonding that ensues between Harry and Aurelius is genuinely sweet, if not heartwarming at times.
There's also the matter of Harry's relationship with Snape and the ups and downs of being involved with so difficult a man. I can't begrudge Snape his desire for a happy home life (Lord knows Jo shat all over that :P), but there's an undeniable selfishness that inadvertently mucks with Harry's basic human rights.
What can I tell you? I'll never be an advocate for Mpreg, but I really adored Master Green Eyes. It's six chapters totalling thirty thousand words, and honestly?
I would have happily read six more.
In which Snape befriends an old grey donkey, and life is gloomy, as usual - Snape and Eeyore [G] bygm_weasley.
Two gloomier souls never existed! A very inventive crossover. Srsly, the only thing missing is Snape's cock tacked to his groin with a nail. Ouchies!
