Summary
My dearest readers,
Have you missed me? Of course you have. I do so apologize for my terribly long absence — but I promise, it was for good reason. You see, I’ve been working on something rather big. Monumental, even. The kind of revelation that makes you gasp over your morning tea. And I decided you, my most devoted Prophet subscribers, deserved to hear it first. So, each week, right here in my column, I’ll share exclusive pieces of my newest serial: Yours, Always — Lily
You read correctly. Lily. As in Potter. This serial is drawn from dozens of letters written over eight months between two tragic lovers who risked everything for family. It's a story of love and sacrifice that will captivate, entrance, and — dare I say it — break your heart. And the best part? Every word of it is true.
You think you know the story? Well readers — here’s where you’ll want to lean in — this is not the story of Lily and James.
I, your humble reporter Rita Skeeter, bring to you:
"Yours, Always
— Lily"
Rita Skeeter releases secret letters between Snape and Lily in the Daily Prophet during our trio's 6th year. What do they say? What happens next?

Summary
Privately, he would agree with the other children on the character of his parents. Tobias was a monster that stalked the home, simmering with rage until it finally boiled over and he took it out on one of them. His mother was no more than a ghost, barely functioning day to day, and those few occasions where she would show her son affection were quickly snuffed out by her husband’s next outburst. Another tirade against her unholyness, that devilish witchcraft which ran through her blood and infected their boy. And Severus would resent that if it weren’t true, he could see it in his ‘fits’ which made flowers bloom in winter and flocks of birds swarm their house. It was only right that Tobias used his belt to beat the devil out of his son, maybe then with the right amount of penance he would be normal.

Severus escapes death, but he still needs saving.

Summary
After surviving the Battle of Hogwarts, a long convalescence, and a short trial, Snape walks free and promptly vanishes from Wizarding society. Six years pass before he shows his face again. A lot can change in six years, and a romantically disillusioned and inebriated Harry hits Snape up for a friends-with-benefits arrangement. After all, they share an experience most people have never had: they both know what it's like to be dead. Their liaison works surprisingly well until Harry's reckless behaviour as an Auror leads to unethical practices and personal calamities, and things start to fall apart.

Summary
Severus Snape is a man unraveling—haunted by guilt, hated by students and staff, and tormented by the very side he’s sworn to deceive. With Albus Dumbledore gone, the burden of his final wish weighs heavily. Each day at Hogwarts is a battlefield of scorn and secrecy, and each night brings pain at the hands of those he pretends to serve. But when the truth is carved into his flesh for all to see, and even death seems a mercy, will anyone dare to ask what lies beneath the word “traitor”?

Summary
It was an early July afternoon when the Marauders heard of the death of Severus Snape. Word spreading through the small, slightly rural, British town like an infection. While technically it was still a missing persons case, they all knew Snape was already dead.
(Stand by Me inspired Marauders fic. After Tobias Snape is arrested for murdering his fourteen years old son, a certain group of boys set out to recover the missing body. No Magic and set in a small 1960s town. PLEASE NOTE!! I have decided to use the 'Choose Not To Use Archive Warnings' Archive Warning.)

Roll Out the Red Carpet, Barricade the Door by GardenerSnake8822

Summary
Severus is still choking on the air being repelled from his lungs when the first attempt slams against his skull. This attempt isn't like theirs. It isn't the stinging, burrowing, bamboo-shoots-under-the-nail like crawling of his Lord's magic. Not Voldemort's slow and torturous magic, polluting his mind with burning pains as he digs deeper inside, unrelenting. Nor is it the powerful, crushing, passionate rush of Dumbledore flooding him. His mentor and warden's grand magic, trying to shatter his shields until they were impenetrable. No, this attempt comes at him like a dart throw. It sails at him like a whisp through the air, hitting his shields with the force of a feathered pin-point. Leaving only a small hole in the surface of his mental fortitude. The magic is insistent, but all too gentle compared to what he's known.
(Severus Snape whump at the ministry. Written because I was always confused why the Order didn't jump Snape sooner. Please excuse my use of Magical Macguffins :/ )

Summary
Tensions are high amongst the students at Hogwarts. With past events and a War like no other brewing, some students are acting out. Leaving one Slytherin grasping at straws of bad options. Until one spell, which he'd always dismissed, catches his eye...Or rather, it's a potion that does.
(Snape becomes an Animagus to avoid his problems, leading him to a solution he never thought he'd accept. Or even be offered. Marauder Snape basically. With angst and comfort. Also, the Dog Fighting tag is mostly a joke. Mostly.)

Summary
Many people are often misunderstood, and other people never have their story told. Severus was always misunderstood, and Peter never had his story told, for better or for worse.

Severus Snape is trapped and being driven to the Dark. Trapped by his father's cruelty, his mother's curses, and the pressures of his House at Hogwarts. But in his Sixth Year, unplanned revelations bare his secrets to the last people he ever wanted to know them...and the results may change not only his life, but the fate of the Wizarding World as a whole. Can a single event change the world for one young man, and bring back the last flickering of sparks of light in a battered soul, before Severus is lost to the Dark forever?

Summary
Death was in the search for an apprentice after being cheated by Tom Riddle, and she finds her perfect pupil in a near-dead double agent who had lost more than they had loved. Giving mortals a second chance was not normal for death, but she doesn't mind it as she marks him with her sigil and sends him back to before hatred and sorrow had settled so firmly into his way of life. She didn't expect him to change so much.

Summary
Severus' cover is blown and to protect the Order's secrets he delves deep inside his mind and remembers things he thought he forgot.
The boy broke into a victorious grin that made Severus question his sanity. “We can go to Neverland now!” The boy looked like a professor when one of his students finally got the lesson.
Severus blinked before being assaulted by memories of nights re-reading the muggle book about the boy who never grew up. Lily showed it to him once, didn’t she, when they were children. “Start speaking sense!” He growled, unwilling to visit such memories.
“You couldn’t fly before because you had too many things weighing you down, but they’re gone now. At least most of them!” The boy grabbed his hand and pulled. He moved his hand to wrench it free. “I have no memory of such a thing.”
“Why are you being so difficult? You were in the astronomy tower, remember? I heard you! I couldn’t take you away back then, but we can go now!”
