Snape with a child - even if it's not his own, could we ask for more?
It takes some time until you get to like the OC female, but you will. Her pride is similar to Snape's, and that is why their relationship is interesting. They tend to fight a lot. Very snarky.

Definitely one of the classics. And definitely one of the classic writers.
The story features two of my favorites; post-war and Snarry. A winner in its own rights. The way their relationship progresses from despise to amiable friendship, then tentative love is believable and told in strong words.

This actually is part of a series, though I only am interested in "The Professor", not in the prequel. Snape's struggle after the war is often let out of fanfictions as Rowling revealed essential details quite late and even then it's up to a lot of speculation. This author managed to make his suffering quite real. While it sometimes seems like he's drowning in the issues around him, the writer succeeds to get him further. He changes, gets back to the surface. Step by step, Snape's turning into whom we know: canon!Snape. The development is very interesting to observe.
