Summary
It only takes one person to cause a ripple effect... when an orphan who remembers nothing from her past receives a letter to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she assumes she is getting pranked. But when Rubeus Hagrid shows up, she realises quickly that not only is magic real, but she is a witch. Little does she know she is joining a class with the famous Harry Potter, the boy who lived, which will most definitely disrupt her education. Determined to catch up and maybe even discover who she is and where she came from, the young witch throws herself into everything with an open mind and passionate heart. However, sooner or later, she must choose, will she cling to a past she's long forgotten or fight to save her hopes for the future?
A reader-insert fic that is a rewrite of canon initially follows closely (even matching dialogue where it fits). The reader uses she/her pronouns and is written as cis, but not overly mentioned aside from ch. 20 so feel free to imagine her as you wish :P.
Currently posting chapters taking place in year 4, updates Fridays.

Summary
A/N: I posted this a couple of years ago, abandoned it, and am now doing major revisions.
A sentient magical object awakens in the teenaged hands of Severus Snape, and briefly glimpses his future. The stark, lonely life he faces needs more room for hope, it thinks. It pulls what few strings are left to pull, loosening his timeline just enough for a little bit of hope, and perhaps even happiness.
In 2014, Elinor O'Connell, an exchange student at Hogwarts, searches for answers about her mysterious parentage. When all the usual means of discovering her roots fail, how far will she be willing to go to find them?
In 1996, Severus Snape worries about placing all of his hopes for success on Harry Potter, the-boy-who-lived-to-be-a-pain-in-his-arse. He wonders if the odds might be better served by bringing Hermione Granger into the fold.
In 1996, Hermione Granger is determined to do everything she can to help Harry succeed against Voldemort, even if that means dedicating all of her free time to learning how to survive a war.

Summary
Felix Felicis gives you luck.
It doesn’t mean that you will get, what you planned for.What Draco plans, is to get along with Voldemort’s assignment. What he gets, is a bath in prefects bathroom and one proper conversation with The Boy Who Lived. Not that it makes his life any easier.
A 6th year AU about Harry and Draco being idiots in love. Featuring canonical and not canonical war related drama, mutual distrust, a secret relationship (Potter, are you seriously calling jerking me off around the castle dating?), saving each other’s arses and lots of bickering.

Summary

Summary
Harry Potter is unraveling.
He’s quieter now; more withdrawn, more tired. Between dreams haunted by Tom Riddle, growing isolation, and scars that never truly healed, Harry turns to the only thing that gives him control: art. But even sketching can’t keep the darkness at bay forever. The whispers never stop. The dreams grow darker. And his magic—wild, powerful, and unrefined—starts slipping through the cracks in ways even he can’t control.
Once again, Harry finds himself placed under the reluctant care of Professor Severus Snape for more Occlumency lessons and supervision. Neither of them is prepared for what follows.
Snape expects arrogance. Harry expects cruelty. What they find instead are pieces: of truth, of memory, of each other. As the boundaries between student and professor shift, long-buried trauma surfaces, secrets unravel, and the Horcrux inside Harry begins to take a toll neither of them expected.

Living-Privately ff (remade from memory?) by Thepaleone

Summary
This is a remake from memory, of the fanfic called living privately by asecretchord? since it's no longer available online. I used Gemini to help me write the outline for this because I could only remember the basics of this story, and i guess Gemini has access and I don't, lol. I've changed a lot of this story to match what I wanted to read lol. Eventual mpreg. Snarry pairing. Snape sees a memory in Harry's mind during Occlumency lesson and everything changes from there. Set in 7th year. No horcruxes. This story will be completely posted by the end of June. Currently working on my own book, feel free to leave comments and ask anything.

Summary
Severus has nothing to live for - nothing but his role in a war that will not be fought for years. But one morning he wakes to an impossible warning. His life, and his House, will never be the same.
This is a story of family found and lost, of prophecy and past mistakes and promises unkept. This is also a story about crazy students, Christmas presents, bullying, betting pools, and blackmail. A life with so many stupid problems could only belong to Severus.
Updates twice a month (unless I have final exams.)

Summary
There is a boy, tired and unloved, whose worst fear is not Voldemort murdering him in the dead cold of the night but his secret being revealed. The Boy-Who-Lived, the Savior of the Wizarding World... is a mere fifteen-year-old emotional mess. When Death Eaters attack Hogwarts on the first day after summer holidays, the school remains closed for three weeks to undergo repairs. Harry Potter finds himself locked in Severus Snape's house with no other choice but to oblige to the greasy bat's constant requests; or not. When everything comes rushing in, and emotions and flashbacks and dreadful dreams take up most of his daily life, the broken boy is shattered to pieces with no-one but his disgruntled Potions Professor to reassemble.
(Sirius Black and Remus Lupin get involved, despite Harry's complaints) -

Summary
This begins in early sixth year, just before Ron hits it off with Lavender:
Voldemort is playing sadistic games with Severus.
Albus is playing emotional games with Severus.
Severus is playing self-destructive games with himself.
Hermione is caught in their web.
-----
I added the Underage warning because Hermione is Severus' student. She's 17 by the time this story begins, an adult to her society. -
Polyjuice and Prophecy: A Tale of Dark Deception by Astrangefan
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
06 May 2025

Summary
It all starts with a prophecy. Lord Voldemort has been given a new prophecy, one that will guarantee him untold magical powers. Unfortunately his success depends on the fulfillment of the prophecy by none other than Draco Malfoy.
Draco Malfoy's 16th summer was not like other boys' 16th summers. Lucius goes to prison, the Dark Lord takes up residence in Malfoy Manor, his mother, on the verge of collapsing from the trauma of it all, has other responsibilities that don't include mothering a 16-year-old boy.
Draco must weather what is to come on his own.
Draco receives the Dark Mark and is given two missions: Kill Albus Dumbledore and fix the Vanishing Cabinet in the Room of Hidden Things. Piece of cake, right?
But, before he can go back to Hogwarts, he is sent to train with his aunt, Bellatrix Lestrange at Lestrange Manor, an insane woman who considers torture an art and training a happy benefit of that. For Draco to even make it to Hogwarts he must endure what is done to him and above all survive.
