Summary
She needed to curl into his chest and be very insignificant, instead of essential. She needed him to understand how much she missed her parents, and how sore her feet were at the end of each day and how hungry she always was, and to confirm that she hadn’t made too bad a blunder, that she’d been doing the best she could. She wanted his voice without that godforsaken, blue pulsing light. She really wanted to hear him confirm that she still existed. She wanted to look into his eyes and gauge how much his role at Hogwarts was killing him, because she knew he’d never admit a scrap of it out loud.
~*~Hermione hasn't seen Severus since the death of Professor Dumbledore. Since she erased herself from her parents memories, Since Voldemort overthrew the Ministry, and since she, Harry, and Ron started hunting horcruxes. While she treks the countryside, Severus lords over Hogwarts as the new Headmaster, neither of them where they want to be. Pushed to their limits in the midst of a war, they are forced to reckon with their priorities and figure out how they might act in order to live with themselves.

Summary
She pressed her lips together and pushed away from the tree, bringing herself less than a foot from him. “I want you to look at me and feel selfish.”
Her words rang in his head. Snape felt them committing themselves to his memory almost against his will. He had always thought one needed to be beautiful to experience beautiful things, but whatever warmth she looked at him with was at odds with that belief. She seemed to have addressed that thought directly.
~*~As the war ramps up and Lord Voldemort accrues more and more strength, both Severus and Hermione often times feel that the bond that has formed between them is a fragile one. As they grow closer and discover more about their connection, they begin to carve out their own path in a conflict that has been dictated by others for so long.

Summary
There was this thing inside him, and it was an emotion, but it was thrashing and resisted him.
You are the one resisting. Snape cast the intruding voice so forcefully to the back of his mind he was surprised it didn't protest. But yes. Yes he had to resist it, because to feel like Hermione Granger was the sole person in the world who seemed to understand him - to want to understand him - to feel that and be even a little desiring of it, was unacceptable. Finally under the canopy of the trees at the edge of the forest, Snape turned his head towards the sky. The bare branches swayed gently, strangely gently given the ferocity of the wind.
Unacceptable
~*~When Hermione is inducted into the Order of the Phoenix at the beginning of her fifth year, she finds herself working closely beside her Portions Professor. As the prospect of a Wizarding war, the stress of her academic life, and straining friendships threaten to overwhelm her, the bond that forms between her and Severus Snape becomes her lifeline.

Summary
It’s late when Rosalie gets the call. Late enough that she visibly winces and rushes into the kitchen on her tiptoes to rip the phone off its hook before it can disturb her mother. Holding the thing up to her ear she hears nothing, the sharp contrast between the shrill ringtone and the following silence oddly chilling.
“Hello?”
Maybe there’s faint breathing on the other end? She closes her eyes, as if that might help the noise to become clearer.
“Hello?” She doesn’t know why she whispers this, but her throat closes up a little.
“Rosie? Rosie? Are you there?”
__________
Being with Billy Hargrove is tumultuous and emotional and intense, and yet Rosalie feels more at home with him than she has anyone else. Until that call, until he changes, and until the relentless horror of Hawkins drags them down.

Summary
“Will.”
His name slips from between Hannibal’s lips, and the word contains everything from a gentle query to a dark warning. Will frowns, selecting his next words carefully.
“I just want to know you.”
_______
Will wakes up in hospital after falling to what should have been his death. Hannibal isn't there. Everything is different now, his emotions and instincts conflicted.
He understands that he has to find Hannibal - that pulling away hurts those around him, hurts him - and decides not to think about what life will be beyond that point.
