Summary
It all began with a letter in that Snape boy’s hand.
Professor Minerva McGonagall had always tried to be fair and just.
But in a world of rising division and bigotry during a time filled with growing despair and utter mistrust as a dark enemy forces the world apart in a silent war, Minvera perhaps had lost sight of the small nuances and details that made life so three dimensional.
Perhaps she herself fell victim to assumptions and misconceptions and their power to color one's own perspective in the wrong shade.
Perhaps in her attempt to guide the next generation of wizards onto a better path, she had misjudged who needed her helping hand the most.Or perhaps she should've just taken the damn letter.
Or: It all began with a letter. It all got derailed when a random girl met an unwilling Severus Snape and decided: That one! That one will be my new brother.

Summary
Upon surviving the Battle of Hogwarts, Severus Snape is at a loss. For nearly twenty years, he devoted his life to defeating the Dark Lord and protecting Harry Potter. Now, with the war over and the Boy-Who-Lived safe, he finds he has precious little left to fight for — until a chance therapy session shows him that he ought to be fighting for himself.
With the war coming to a close and Wizarding Britain starting to rebuild, Severus starts on a journey to find meaning and joy in a life that’s given him little of either, discovering what it truly means to value himself and his own happiness.
(Translation in Russian at the end of the first chapter!)

Harry had hoped that death was going to be peaceful. Opening his eyes to a new type of pain and suffering was not what he thought was going to happen when he walked into the forest. He had traded one hell for another. Or so he thought.

Summary
When Harry Evans first enters the magical world at the age of 11, everyone makes it quite clear to him that his father was James Potter, and that it was quite a shame that he isn't the true heir to the Potter line since his parents never married. Harry however, isn't quite as sure. He most certainly doesn't look anything like James in the photos he manages to find after he starts at Hogwarts, and Aunt Petunia always made it sound like his mum's fiancé wasn't his father. If there's one thing that's true for Harry and his new friends however, it's that they're always up for solving a mystery, and really, the identity of Harry's dad is much more interesting than that weird package Hagrid picked up at Gringotts.

Summary
Laurel is a simple woman—or so she thought.
As an Akardos, her very existence defies the rules of the magical world: she cannot be touched by magic, cursed, or controlled. When she takes a job as a nursing assistant at a rundown care home, she strikes up an unlikely connection with one of the residents: Tobias Snape, bitter, reclusive, and father to a man the world calls both traitor and murderer.
When a Death Eater attack forces Severus Snape to take drastic measures, Laurel finds herself kidnapped and hidden inside Malfoy Manor, held prisoner by the man she only knows through stories.
But the truth is more complex.
So is he.As war rages on beyond the gates, a dangerous bond forms between captor and captive. One forged in silence, sharpened by trauma, and twisted by desire.
She’s immune to magic.
But not to him.- Language:

“The Ministry takes a vested interest in ensuring our young witches and wizards are as safe as we can make them and you, dear boy, are very important to Minister Fudge.” Professor Umbridge said, simpering in a self-satisfied way as she said Fudge’s name. “So I must ask you where you’ve been this last August?”
Harry coughed into his tea and nearly spilled it over himself.

Summary
“As much as I don’t value sentiment, I’m always inclined to… give priority to my first-time experiences.”
One of St. Mungo's highly skilled Mediwizards is being transferred to Hogwarts this year, unbeknownst to everyone that it was upon Dumbledore's urgent behest. While there, she meets droll and brooding, Severus Snape, the man on the other end of the spectrum; a man she had never expected to meet but was actually quite glad she did.

Summary
Following a mysterious accident at the Ministry of Magic, empath Ariadne Silverthorn finds herself in the position of many a professor before her -- sheltered by the willing magnanimity of Albus Dumbledore. But dangerous secrets lurk in the shadowed halls of this castle, and not all of them are magical.
Severus Snape/female OC. Slowburn (I mean SLOW), with an exploration of trauma and connection.
This Snape will be 65% book Snape [feral emo garbage man] and about 35% movie Snape [tragic disgruntled Mr. Darcy]. But most of the time, he's 100% jerk, with a lot of growing to do.
