When Hermione's parents are killed, Snape is named her legal guardian. Snape can't stand the "Insufferable Know-It-All," but then we always hate in others what we consider our own flaws.

For those who felt Snape was cheated in the books... the life he should have gotten. Beginning right after the last page of DH, a new danger forces Harry and Snape together and makes them see the...good (!) in each other. Completely canon-compliant except for Snape lives. NOT slash, a twist on a mentoring/guardian fic.

I love "Harry is rescued from the Dursleys" stories but never found one that was quite right. So I had to write one myself.

Harry Potter was a ordinary 10 going on 11 year old boy. He did what his guardians, the Dursley's asked; no matter how crazy it seemed.

8/24/16-STORY UNDER CONSTRUCTION. REWRITTEN CHAPTERS SOON- Professor Snape makes an unlikely friend in spite of himself, or maybe because of Albus. She may be a Muggle, but he slowly realizes what an amazing Muggle she is. It's such a shame that people need to think of Severus Snape as the greasy, grumpy, bat of the dungeons. (Orig story/Snape's POV/OC worked in w/o changing canon)

The summer after the Battle of Hogwarts Harry and Teddy come to stay at the Burrow, leaving Ginny to care for Teddy while Harry is training to become an auror.

Severus Snape enters the Potters Cottage on the treacherous night on Halloween, 1981 where he finds young Harry and an individual he least expects to save. Will he learn to forgive and forget? Or will things get more bitter? Warning; it's not canon to the original story line, lots of bashing for the Marauders as well.

This is a sequel to Harry Potter, age 8. Please read that story first, it will make things make more sense. This story is based on the idea that the Dursleys die unexpectedly when Harry was 8, and he is placed with Severus Snape as his guardian. This story will contain parental spanking, if that bothers you please don't read.

A series of letters from Harry to his friends & enemies. Set the summer before Harry's 5th years. The sequel Did You Miss Me Now posted.

Hermione's life is perfect. She's engaged to Ron and has just been promoted within the Ministry. But when her old enemy begins to appear around every turn, she can't help but wonder if she's too young to have her life set out already. Perhaps there's time for one last adventure before settling into the inevitable. Post-Hogwarts, Pre-Epilogue, Multi-Chapter.

This is a one-shot story of what I think should have happened after the famed pensieve incident between Harry and Snape. Warning, involves a spanking/caning of a teenager. But it is also not overly harsh.

Severus Snape, leaving Hogwarts in the immediate aftermath of Dumbledore's death, reflects on what has happened. I wrote this shortly after Half Blood Prince came out and I was bouncing off the walls trying to figure out what was going on with Snape. It is my first (up till now, only) piece of fanfic. Reviews appreciated. All usual disclaimers apply.

Harry goes back to Privet Drive at the end of second year and finds that his relatives have put the bars back on his window, Vernon spans out of control and Petunia finally catches him at it. Things begin to change and Harry FINALLY gets the caring family he hoped for his whole life. (Will follow SIMILAR events to year three but will totally AU)

This story follows the Battle of Hogwarts and considers how the main characters might have moved forward from those harrowing times. They embark on a journey of friendship, healing, relationship, and growth toward the Deathly Hallows epilog scene nineteen years later. The story aims to be canonically aligned and includes a bit of humor and a few serendipitous thoughts.
