    Summary

    You and Severus have an arrangement.

    Twice a month, you come in from Merlin knows where, crates laden with Merlin knows what, and top off Severus’ ingredient stores. Occasionally, you source something particular for him and you don’t ask any questions. The cold, expressionless Potions Master dips into the Potions Department budget and you can pay your rent and bills and feed yourself for a while.

    That’s not the arrangement.

    ------------

    Reader is an unskilled laborer working as the potion ingredient supplier for the Hogwarts Potions Master, who she's also fucking; partly to sweeten the deal so he keeps buying from her, but mostly because she really, really, likes it.

    Summary

    This will be a very very slow burn, which I hate slow burns, but I couldn't see this going in any other direction.

    When Snape's research conclusions get called into question, he finds himself in America at the mercy of a fellow scholar.

    Considered complete for now, possible sequel in the future.

    Summary

    Severus Snape x Reader (you)

    1981: You're fourteen when you discover that Severus Snape is the only person at Hogwarts who doesn't talk down to you. It starts with a late-night conversation about runic theory. It becomes four years of intellectual connection that you're both too careful to name.

    1985: You're seventeen when you realize that respect has curdled into something dangerous. So you leave, three years in Egypt, breaking curses for Gringotts, building a career far from Scotland. Far from him.

    1988: You're twenty when you return to Hogwarts as the new wardcraft and curse-breaking professor. You're equals now. Adults. And after seven years of restraint, neither of you wants to wait anymore.

    1991: You're twenty-three when Harry Potter arrives and the Dark Lord returns. When the war forces impossible choices, devastating secrets, and tests everything you've built together.

    A slow-burn that actually catches fire. About forbidden attraction, forced distance, and what happens when you finally have each other... right as the world starts ending.

    (Don't worry, you survive it. Both of you.)
