'take... it... take... it...'
something more than blood was leaking from snape. silvery blue, neither gas nor liquid, it gushed from his mouth and his ears and his eyes.
“If not for the hastily cast silencing charm, all of Hogwarts would have heard the anguished wail that ripped from the man’s throat. A sound so visceral in it’s nature, that Hogwarts herself being the only witness to the cries- her very foundation shook, her stone walls groaning in protest as she too grieved a long side him, as a conviction, a perception built on old wounds not yet healed, shattered before the man’s feet. Harry, was not James.” -Snape seeing the parallels between him and Harry.
Hosted by Snape_Potter, Thon is the oldest Snarry fest still going, and it's always a delight to see it back once more!!! yay!!!

It’s the first day of claiming for the Snarry AUctoberfest 2024! The current year’s prompts are listed on the claiming form page of our website. The form here will be updated as things are claimed. However, you are not limited to this year’s prompts! If they do not catch your fancy, check out the previous years’! We also offer a wild-card option for prompts.
We encourage participants to focus on Snarry and Alternate Universe possibilities (ie. a radically different time period or location, non-magic, outer space etc., or those influenced by other media). Fest works are permitted within the canon universe as long as there’s a major divergence from the canon world or storyline.
Please consider the spirit of this fest: imagining the multitude of ways in which Severus and Harry fall in love across all different worlds, timelines and possibilities.
To that end, we request no works be submitted where the only AU element would be considered as “EWE” or “Snape lives”, or other minor divergences Snarry fans would expect to see in Snarry fanworks.
If you wish to participate, please fill out all the required information in the form. Once you submit your claim, just sit back and wait for confirmation via your preferred method of communication (Discord or email). (Don’t forget to check your spam folder if you choose email! Our emails often end up there initially!!! Please, please do check your spam folder!)
You do not to have submitted a prompt to take part, nor do you need to be a member of our Discord community.
You have until the day submissions are due on September 15th to claim a prompt if you want to participate. This year marks the 5th AUctober fest! Let's make it a memorable one! 🧡The Claiming Form can be found here 🧡
