Summary
Friedrich had never wished for much. Perhaps, his love's acknowledgement -- but nothing much. He'd never done any wrong, and he had no plans of leaving the relative safety of his work.
Why is it, then, that he finds himself tangled in this monstrosity of a web, woven by none other than the tumultuous political state of this duchy?

Summary
“What— What are you doing?” To his credit, he manages to pull the child to a full stop by yanking him back, bringing him in closer to hold his shoulders again and glare at him in the eyes, no matter the way he winces at their familiar colour. “You are aware that you have just undergone a panic attack, are you not?”
There’s something in Potter’s eyes that seems to flash at that, but it’s gone within the moment. Severus files that away for later ruminations.
“I know,” he says matter-of-factly, like he’s just declared that the sky is blue.

Summary
Harry goes to a local Catholic church before leaving the Dursleys after 6th year. It's evening, and a few candles are lit. A choir is practicing in the back, ignoring the newcomer… and one other person, kneeling in a pew. Harry recognizes Snape. Unable to believe he'd come there, Harry walks closer until he can hear what the man is frantically whispering. It's the act of contrition, repeated over and over and in so quick a tone that the words string together. Harry feels the tingle of magic, and recognizes a muggle-repelling charm. Clearly, Snape came here not expecting anyone to find him. Harry is more than happy to shatter that illusion.
Religious setting/references, but technically not a religious fic.

Summary
"And even though it all went wrong/I'll stand before the Lord of Song/With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah…" For Severus Snape, playing music held as just much enchantment as performing actual magic. But how & why did he learn to play the piano? A life told through song as an homage to the greats Leonard Cohen and Alan Rickman. Written as part of the 2017 Snapecase Fest on LJ.

Summary
Through his time as a professor, Severus Snape offered Remedial Potions. The brewing was never really the point, though.
CW for depictions of suicidal ideation and societal stigmatisation of issues surrounding suicide. These issues are explored fairly deeply for such a short story, so please mind the tags in that regard, and note that there is character death, though only of OCs.
