Fic rec!
Another Snupin Santa rec!

This one is: The Voyage of HMS Leviosa.
Prompt: Non-magic, non-werewolf AU, with Remus as a lieutenant on Captain Malfoy's ship. The arrival of gentleman naturalist Severus Snape on board raises eyebrows (and other things.) Secret smexing at sea in an unforgiving environment and era. Jealousies, intrigues, brutality or threesomes all possible, but no psychotic Lucius, please. Cameo appearances by other characters would be a lovely bonus.
In a nutshell: Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes; Yup. Kinda. No, no, some, no, gotcha. Yes.
Summary:Botanical geographer Severus Snape reawakens Lieutenant Lupin's interest in life, amongst other things.

This is a beautifully written, staggeringly well researched fic telling of the voyage of discovery made by the HMS Leviosa under Captain Lucius Malfoy between the Years of our Lord 1800 and 1832. Under the sponsorship of Sir Harry Potter, Severus Snape has set out to discover and catalog the marvels and mysteries of the South Sea Islands. The story is told my Lieutenant Remus Lupin through his thoughts and his log book, and through the letters home by Captain Malfoy.

It. Is. Wonderful.
