    Summary

    Severus is barely hanging on. He has no friends, honour or reputation left, and the only ones that will associate with him are death eater wannabes.

    When he comes home for summer after his fifth year at Hogwarts, he finds that his mother is dead and his father is missing. To top it all of, some two-hundred-year old contract between the Princes and the Blacks states that Severus has to marry Sirius Black before his 19th birthday.

    He just cannot get a break, can he?

    Summary

    Five years after the war, Auror Harry Potter touches the Mirror of Erised and wakes up in James Potter's body on the Hogwarts Express—eleven years old, first year, 1971.

    Sorted into Slytherin instead of Gryffindor, Harry becomes the unlikely protector of young Severus Snape. He doesn't bully. He doesn't follow house divisions. He sits at the Gryffindor table with his mother and refuses to leave Severus alone.

    But changing the past is complicated. Older students notice. Lucius Malfoy notices. And as the years pass, Harry realizes the boy who shadows him everywhere—brilliant, loyal, defensive Severus—has become something more than a friend.

    Summary

    Severus Snape desperately wanted to stick to the plan:

    1. Get to Hogwarts.
    2. Be sorted into Slytherin with Lily.
    3. Become the wizard he was always meant to be.

    But things go sideways when Lily is sorted into Gryffindor. And Severus? He throws the plan away.

    In which Severus is a Gryffindor, Lupin is hiding something, Potter and Black are the worst, and there's a Wizarding War about to erupt.

    Summary

    Years after the war, Severus Snape is finally sentenced for his crimes. To the surprise of himself (and of True Crime Witches everywhere) he isn’t given the Kiss.

    Instead, stripped of his magic and exiled to the Rocky Mountains, he spends his days making muggle soap, riding bikes, and pretending he doesn’t miss the feeling of a wand in his hand.

    That is, until an anonymous user begins flooding his online cycling journal with comments.
