Summary
Sequel to "The Darkest Side of Me", where a trans-in-the-closet Severus had thought about a contingency plan to protect Lily's children by living a new life as a woman.
"-I'm reminding you that it is by my word, and my word alone, that you remain out of Azkaban. If, of course, you find yourself unable to be the MAN I require, I shall have to find myself a new inside man. I do believe Misses Malfoy scored an Outstanding on her Potions N.E.W.T., and she'd do almost anything to protect her son from going the same way her cousin Regulus Black did. If you want the cursed Defense Against the Dark Arts job, I’ll happily send you on your way."
Title from Linkin Park song:
It's like I'm paranoid, looking over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
...I feel the light betray me...
...
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skinSeries

SEQUEL TO ONE STEP LEFT EXTENDED CUT.
Narcissa Granger-Black's First Person POV only. This will spoil you if you read it.

Summary
An extended cut to One Step Left, told in five parts. This is the final part.

What would have happened if Dobby had flinched at Malfoy Manor and taken one step to the left, leaving Hermione behind to fend for herself and thus causing a terribly different outcome of the war?This is where the story expands and changes; despite being told it was too long, the ending was also too short and abrupt. I hope you all enjoy a more complex, realistic ending.

Summary
My mind decided to do this to me. If you don't like incest fics, don't read. The near-kiss of episode #23 of the Lizzie Bennet Diaries is to blame for the inspiration.
AU, obvs. Takes place after episode 25, before episode 26.

What would have happened if Dobby had flinched at Malfoy Manor and taken one step to the left, leaving Hermione behind to fend for herself and thus causing a terribly different outcome of the war?The government had actively enacted a genocide, and nearly did so again with the goblins, because ‘might made right’. It was out in the open; carved in stone in the middle of the Ministry’s Atrium.
And it was considered perfectly legal because Thicknese signed off on the previous use of force, and again only out of fear if the muggles found out and resumed the Burning Times from hundreds of years ago.
