Parts One and Two are here. This chapter was a bear to write, in large part because Hamlet and Snape couldn't quite decide whether they wanted to be BFFs or sworn enemies. Most of the dialogue in the scene with Claudius is straight from the play; the final line is Shamelessly Ripped Off from Charles M. Schulz, as the utter randomness of it seemed to suit.

Lest anyone find Snape's reference to "playing Sherlock" too incongruous, I refer readers to [livejournal.com profile] dolorous_ett's delightful Sherlock Holmes and the Ravenclaw Codex, which suggests that Holmes may be just as well-known to wizards as Muggles. However, I have no good excuse for Hamlet's corkscrew, which is probably an anachronism.

Also, those who prefer their Shakesfic without random Harry Potter characters wandering through it should definitely check out this excellent ficlet about Poins, which [livejournal.com profile] angevin2 wrote for me.
