Just in Time

~

The enormous snake slithered away. A boy was kneeling over the man it had bitten, and Dan relaxed, expecting he would revive the man.

“Snape?”

Snape didn’t move, and the boy, after staring into Snape’s eyes, stood up and left.

Dan hurried over, checking Snape, finding a weak pulse. He administered the fluid that the twinkly-eyed man he’d met on his previous jump had provided, sitting back.

Snape coughed and sat up. “Who are you?”

“Dan Vasser. I’m... a journeyman. Looks like you’re safe now.”

Snape laughed bitterly. “Safe?”

Dan shrugged. “Maybe if you disappear?”

Snape pursed his lips. “Perhaps...”

We've all found ways to revive our hero.

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Indeed we have. He deserves it. :)

Nice crossover solution.

Ina suddenly wonders whether anyone has done the obvious Monty Python crossover?

"'snot dead, only sleepin'. The Half-Blood potions master prefers kipping on 'is back. Beautiful plumage, innit?"

*giggles*
That would be fun! :)

[sweetmelodykiss.insanejournal.com]

Excellent! Glad Dan met the twinkly-eyed man on the previous jump.

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

LOL. Yes, that was handy. ;)
Thanks, hon!

[witchdragon.insanejournal.com]

Oh fun!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Thanks, doll!

I don't recognize this at all. Someone else's reference to a "jump" makes me think Quantum Leap, which now gives me a whole other idea of how Snape is not dead. ;) BUt what's Journeyman?

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

It's a new show this season. Dan Vasser is a newspaper reporter who has suddenly began "jumping" back in time, usually to help someone in the past. He can't control it and it plays havoc with his family life.
Anyway, it usually takes several "jumps" for him to figure out what's going on and who he's supposed to help, so I figure he saw Albus, who gave him an antivenom potion or something, and now he's here to save Severus. :)
And all this means is that I picked an obscure Xover fandom. *g*

Nice way to rescue our hero! 8D
Strangely it also made me remember Quantum Leap. (God! I'm getting old!)

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

The show is kind of similar only the person doesn't jump bodies, he actually goes back in time in his own body, which creates all sorts of complications.
But yes, I can see Dan saving Severus. :)
Thanks, hon!

[zephyr_macabee.insanejournal.com]

Yes Severus, disappearing is a good plan. Head for Tahiti or some other warm place. We will all meet you there!

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Sounds like a good plan to me. :)

[dianamoon.insanejournal.com]

Yay! someone else who watches Journeyman! XD Though I'm woefully behind on the episodes...

Great take on it! =D

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

*g* I think we're the only two... ;)
And I have one more to catch up on.
Thanks!

[drachenmina.insanejournal.com]

I saw this, and I thought, uh? And then I turned on the TV, and Journeyman was premiering on Sky, and it was thingy from Rome... *is hooked*

Great drabble, btw! ;D

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Yay! Another Journeyman fan is born. ;)
Thank you!

[jaddziadax.insanejournal.com]

I'm left out of so many loops..

[alisanne.insanejournal.com]

Awww! *hugs*
Don't worry. Not that many people watch Journeyman and ship HP. It's a bit of a niche group I'm writing for here, I think. :)
