I Found My First Gray Hairs

 FYI, I'm 22.

And actually, I noticed them a couple weeks ago, when 'huh?', couldn't decide if they were just hairs that had gotten super-bleached by the sun and then forgot about it.

Today, I noticed them again and had my mom confirm that yes, those are gray hairs.

I'm not upset at all - well, actually, I'm a little sad that I'm not going gray the way my mother is. She has her gray hairs right at her temples, like the bride of Frankenstein, which I think is awesome (she dyes them away). My several gray hairs are in the center of my part, on the right side.

This was my favorite rec that came up when I asked for Harry Potter fanfic. It's Snape/Hermione and Hermione is pregnant while she finishes her last year at Hogwarts. And that set-up right there almost had me clicking the back button in the first three paragraphs. However, the quality of the writing sucked me in, and when I finished it, a couple days later I went back and started a more through reread.

Snape and Hermione are both drawn with depth and subtlety, their relationship is build from the ground floor in a realistic manner as the details of Hermione's pregnancy are slowly revealed.

Additionally, it has delicious, subtext/secondary plot-line with Draco/Hermione. The author writes the redeemed, clever Draco I wish Rowling had written (and thought she was going to), as well as wonderful, deep platonic relationships between Draco and Snape and Hermione and Harry.
