12/15/2003Seven years on from leaving school and Hermione finds herself back at Hogwarts teaching. Many things have changed during this period, yet the Potions Master has lost none of his cutting sarcasm, nor his ability to reduce Hermione to a blushing wreck. Yet when a powerful new potion she has been working on is stolen by unknown forces, she finds herself reluctantly relying on Snape for help. Are first impressions always correct, or are there more motivations behind this proud man's behaviour than mere malice? And what on earth are Neville and Draco up to?
Occlumency in Azkaban by Flourish
03/12/2004Tonks has built her own life from the ground up, without one face to call her own or the safety net of an extended family to rely on. Curiosity, however, has always been her besetting sin, and when she tries to seek out answers about the relatives her mother has been estranged from for years, she finds rather more than she expected. Tonks/Snape.
Angel Of Mercy by Amanda Snape
09/11/2004Vernon Dursley's other sister, Julia, and her daughter, Melody, are coming to Surrey from America. Melody is sixteen and a somewhat goth. She befriends Harry when she has to live at 4 Privet Drive for a couple of weeks. What will happen.
A Cloud Before the Moon by Mehitobel
05/08/2005It isn't easy to get to close to Severus Snape. It's not impossible; after all, sometimes one simply falls into unusual friendships. The problem is, there is frequently an obstacle in the way. More often than not, that obstacle is Severus Snape.
Rising Powers by anix
08/28/2009Harry learns that he is a wizard long before anyone intended. Without anyone teaching him, he does not know what should be impossible. He breaks the rules of magic with help from his bushy-haired friend. AU from age 7 through 7th year. Eventual Harry/Ginny/Luna soul bond, and a sibling bond with Hermione.
The 25th of December by NotEvenHere
12/25/2008Harry lives only to fulfill the demands of the Prophecy. When a vague companion prophecy makes it clear that death may come sooner than he thought, he is content to oblige. Rated for violence and suicide themes. Post-Hogwarts, Non HPB/DH compliant. Complete
Win Some, Lose More by Fire Wolf
02/10/2002A dashing tale staring one famous wiz kid, a small tribe of redheads, an innocent bystander, a complete bastard of a Slytherin, two shifty old blokes, and a sinister evil! In other words, this is exactly why Harry and Snape should never remain in the same building for more than an hour.
The Front Door by keysersoze
07/31/2002Sometimes what seems so out of reach is just as tangible as your own skin. The Front Door promises to be a romance between Severus Snape and Hermione Granger, two people who seem as different as Black and White, but in the end don't we all discover that there are no blacks or whites, only grays? To add a bit of plot in, Voldemort has been incinerated, yet he's back again because of a gift he received from Severus Snape oh so many years ago, and now it's up to Snape and Hermione to find the counter-potion, Harry Potter is twenty-three and confused about his life path, and Dumbledore's got some things occupying his mind.
Hogwarts is under seige, and even when the battle is won, the problems have not been solved. It will take all of the houses working together to set things right, and that means that Harry and Draco must work together. Appearances by Tom Riddle, Lily and James Potter, and many many more...
Meant to Be by Draconn Malfoy
02/15/2006Harry has been in Azkaban for years. When he is finally set free, he finds Dumbledore dead, Snape insane, Remus turned into a wolf, and Lucius Malfoy a fugitive innocent of the murder he's blamed for. When Sirius shows up, though, many things are resolved.

My Teenage Fan Club by After the Rain
02/23/2004I recalled several small incidents from the last few months and came to an alarming conclusion. I had a teenage fan club.... How had I become so popular with the twelve-to-sixteen-year-old set? What did they see in a shabbily dressed, prematurely greying Defence Against the Dark Arts professor? And sweet Merlin, why couldn’t this have happened to me twenty years ago?

Better Angels by CousinAlexei
11/20/2004Sequel to my Worser Angels. Things are going much better for Draco (except for the occasional bit of mortal peril), but Snape still has some issues to work out. Still no romance or slash. Contains disturbing violence.
