    Summary

    After the battle at the Ministry, Severus Snape reflects on his life, his friendship with Lily, and on the information he gained during Occlumency lessons with Harry Potter. He comes up with a plan to circumvent Dumbledore's machinations and to keep Lily's legacy (i.e. her son) alive.

    But then Severus Snape's life gets turned upside down. There is the (maybe not so) crazy Dark Lord that has his own plans concerning the Potion Master. And who is Lord Black now that Sirius Black is dead?

    Summary

    This is the sequel to Resonance. Harry is in his first year of training as an Auror Apprentice. The last of the Death Eaters have been captured and things should be peaceful. But Harry's magic is changing and he is determined to manage the side-effects of it by managing the emotions that trigger it. But he cannot manage on his own for long and must swallow his pride and ask for help.

    (While Resonance was written entirely before Half Blood Prince this story takes into account selective canon from it. This story was originally written and posted between June 2005 and August 2006. This is the 3rd Edition.)

    Summary

    Snape takes time between his graduation from Hogwarts and starting to teach there, choosing to gain more outside experience being a private tutor. He finds himself accepting a residency at a seemly unknown ministry teaching their religious leader’s sons magic and potions. He was expecting a boring few years teaching a few rich kids everything they needed to know, not find a form of happiness he hadn’t experienced in years.

    A Ghost and Harry Potter crossover where the author knows next to nothing about one fandom but understands that he deserved better.

    Summary

    It's the beginning of second year and there's something off about Harry. His friends have noticed, his classmates have noticed, hell, even Severus Snape has noticed. Meanwhile, some new information has come to light that leads to Dumbledore asking something of his Potions Master, something Severus isn't quite sure he's qualified for. Nevertheless, Severus attempts to protect Harry from the threat of outside forces and maybe even face some demons that are a little closer to home.

    A Snape mentors/adopts Harry story. AU from the end of Philosopher's.

    Summary

    Severus Snape has a series of petty feuds with his colleagues, casual sex with the werewolf to whom he is subletting, semi-regular Sunday brunches with fascists, a bar tab he may never settle, and the reluctant custody of Shetland pony which his small yard on Spinner's End is not zoned to stable. This seems well enough in terms of standing commit for any twenty-something to have to contend -

    That is, until he and Remus Lupin are bullied into fostering two screaming toddlers because of some form of blood magic forced upon the pair. Or because of the ‘Greater Good’ his boss is constantly banging on about. Or, as the put-out Potions Master rather more suspects, because a witch with no such idealistic aspirations happened to be having a particularly bad day when she by chance met the Boy Who Lived.

    Can the young couple possibly survive this particular ‘happily ever after’?

    (Or, a bog-standard Snupin raise Harry thing, but in Cokeworth, and Dudley is there, too.)

    Summary

    Seven months into Severus Snape's term as Headmaster, he finally perfects a potion that could change the war for the better… or destroy everything Dumbledore set in motion before his death.

    Dumbledore is dead, and his plans seem to be falling apart before Severus' eyes. Harry Potter and his friends are no closer to finding and destroying the Horcruxes, and Voldemort's hold over the wizarding world is growing. Severus Snape desperately creates a potion that can send him back five years into the past. Hopefully, with more time, he can find the Horcruxes, find a way to save Harry from the Horcrux inside him and maybe even save some of his other students along the way.

    Or he could fail and doom them all.

    TW for the series: As of Chapter 86 in December 2023, the rating for this fic has been updated to M from T. For the last half of this story, there have been more and more fight scenes and deaths, and I have felt like I have been toeing the line, so finally increased the rating. All problematic scenes have TW at the start of the chapter so the reader can skip scenes if they wish.

    Summary

    “Snape?”, startled the mediwitch looking back at the other adult, taking a closer look at him.

    “Severus? Are you Severus Snape?” ...

    “Yes. Long time not seen Madame Pomfrey, but may I ask why you look as if you’d seeing a ghost?” ...

    “B-but, I…we thought…we were told you died. By Merlin.”

    “I don’t understand. Who told you I died? I left Hogwarts after this particular nasty incident, which involved Lupin as you surely were aware about, or maybe not.” ...

    “Well I think it doesn’t matter anymore anyway. As you can see, I’m still alive and even managed to become a respectable potioneer.”

    ----
    This story plays in an alternative universe, where Snape left Hogwarts before he even finished his fifth year and came back after almost sixteen years with two children in toe. An universe where not everything seems what it looks like.

    Please mind the tags. Some will be added later in the story. If you don't like, don't read it.

    Summary

    When Harry blows up Aunt Marge, Dumbledore decides he can't be left to his own devices in Diagon Alley for the whole of August and sends him to stay with the only person available - one highly displeased Severus Snape. Harry, for his part, doesn't think this summer could get any worse. After all, what could be more unpleasant than living with Professor Snape?

    Finding out Draco Malfoy is also staying at Spinner’s End, of course.

    None of them know how they'll survive a month in each others' company, but they might just come out the other side with something they all need the most: a family.

    Summary

    It began like this:
    On the night of the 1st of November, little Harry Potter was placed on the doorstep of Mr and Mrs Dursley’s house at Number 4, Privet Drive. The next morning, a scream woke little Harry when Mrs Dursley opened the front door to put out the milk bottles and found him lying there, a letter tucked into his blankets.
    Had this been an ordinary baby, the poor thing would have died of hypothermia. But Harry was not an ordinary baby, nor would he grow up into an ordinary child, no matter how much the Dursleys tried to beat the freakishness out of him. Little Harry grew up knowing he was a freak and that he had to keep his freakishness hidden. The easiest way to do so, he found, was to keep his head down and his emotions in check. The anger stopped soon enough. The constant fear he managed to keep close to his chest.

    In which a small change in the Dursleys’ treatment of Harry brings about rather significant consequences.

    Summary

    Hagrid can't give Harry to the Dursleys. He just can't. He knew what Petunia was like and he couldn't hand Harry over to her. So he decides to raise Harry instead, with the help of Severus Snape who he has been looking after since the younger man had started at Hogwarts, I mean, no one else would. Of course, things aren't always easy when raising a toddler in Hogwarts. Especially when he won't stop calling Severus 'mum' no matter what the man does, and when the Headmaster won't stop trying to send the boy to Petunia. But, Harry brings a unity to the school that hasn't been seen in decades and maybe, just maybe, when the Dark Lord rises again, they might just be able to stop him.
    I don't own Harry Potter.
    Rest in peace Robbie Coltrane and Alan Rickman!
