Collecting Prompts again

Now that I have two recently finished chaptered stories, I've decided that Tuesdays will be dedicated to finishing up late Advent fics and eventually, neglected chaptered stories. Today I'll post the first part of "Anularius," a Harry/Snape prompt I was writing for Advent that got way too long and had to become a chaptered story, and after I finish that I'll be tying up older fics a chapter at a time, starting with Sympathy for the Predators. I've wondered what to do with them for a while; this gives me a plan and a deadline, which is necessary.

However, that leaves me open Wednesdays. I've decided I'd like to post one-shots then, and I have an idea for this Wednesday, another Advent prompt I didn't get around to. However, for other Wednesdays, I will need other prompts!

So you know the drill:

-Specify the pairing you'd like, or if it's gen. I can write Harry/Draco, Harry/Snape, Snape/Harry/Draco, Ginny/Luna, or Harry/Lucius. I also got a bit adventurous during Advent and wrote Neville/Harry/Draco, so we can add that to the pile. Gen with any character is fine.
-Specify any particular kinks or squicks you'd like me to include or avoid. I would rather not write mpreg, chan (under 15), crossovers, non-magic AU's, and watersports, but anything else I'll at least take a shot at.
-Give me a little prompt or scenario. You can ask for a one-shot sequel to a story I've written, if you like, or even AU- though keep in mind that since it's short, I won't be able to do justice to a really long prompt!

The fics will be posted each week on Wednesday, and I'll answer the prompts in the order they appear.

Chapter One of 'Anularius'- The Thunder of the Past

Title: Anularius
Disclaimer: J. K. Rowling and associates own these characters. I am writing this story for fun and not profit.
Pairing: Harry/Snape
Warnings: Angst, time travel
Rating: R
Summary: Traveling back in time is safe. All you have to do is keep away from people who affect time, who are pretty rare. It's just Horcrux-collecting Harry Potter's luck that Severus Snape is one of them.
Author's Notes: A late Advent fic for thebookivore, who gave me this prompt: Harry/Snape. Time travelling Harry. As an unspeakable explains to Harry, time travel is actually very safe, because most people cannot affect the time stream except a rare few. You can tell who can affect time because they can see time travelers, otherwise "it's similar to how most Muggles cannot see magic, their minds naturally shy away from it and come up with the most incredible explanations for what they have seen". Harry knows to hide out from himself but doesn't realize that Snape can see him ...

I meant to complete this fic on time for Advent, but it got too long for me to finish on time, so I’m posting it as a chaptered story. The title is Latin for “maker of rings.”
