FF


The Marauders have more enemies than just Severus Snape, who's rotten luck is about to change. His friendship with Lily will continue past fifth year.



This is a story not for the faint of heart. The word count will blow you away before you even get to the good part, the writing.
Lily is very immature, and almost disturbing in her careless ways. On the other hand, Snape's infatuation with her -  strong, then waning with his own fortunes shifting - is fiery and very in character. He is deeply flawed in his scheming ways, and certainly dark(ish).
And if you like the Marauders, stay away.

Severus makes his way into the world.

The only criticism I can bring up is the end. It just lacks a sort of... closure.

Hermione Granger and the Intended Vessels

Title: Hermione Granger and the Intended Vessels
Author: Severely_Lupine
Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters: Snape/Hermione, Dumbledore, Remus/Tonks
Warning: NC-17, dub-con, pregnancy, illness (tumor), war, school
Length: Novel
Status: Completed



 Sometimes all it takes to change the world is one small, simple choice. On the night the Death Eaters attack Hogwarts, Hermione Granger makes such a choice. Her life—and her world—will never be the same.
The guilt from killing Draco is bad enough, and knowing she saved Dumbledore doesn’t help it, but when a Ministry decree forces her to marry Professor Snape—a cruel, cold man who’s apparently hated her since she was a child—in order to be used as a breeder of superior wizards, Hermione doesn’t think her life can get any worse. But, of course, she’s wrong.
Soon, Voldemort’s after her and her friends (again), her life is in grave peril, and all her hopes for a future at all, much less a happy one, rest on her own shoulders—and on Snape, her unwanted husband, whose heart still belongs to a woman long dead.

It takes some time to like the plot. I never was very impressed with the pairing, but the story makes it a bit more believable how Snape could fall in love with her. Or in which ways he could not.

The Warehouse

Fandom: Harry Potter
Characters: Snape/James, Remus, Lily(/James, /Snape), Sirius
Warning: NC-17, het, slash, drug abuse, war
Status: Ongoing
Length: Novel


This jumble of emotions could be called love. I never expected it to be this cruel or complicated or humiliating. Love that’s not… convenient.



Snape and James re-meet in very different circumstances. And this leads to a severe crisis for both of them.
Love triangle, well, but not the way you'd think.

Obsession

In her heart, Nymphadora Tonks knows that Remus Lupin is the only man for her. Then why can’t she get Severus Snape out of her head?



A rare pairing, indeed. Not only this is one of the fine points why one should read it, but also because Snape is shown from his best, worst, kindest, meanest side.

I love this story. It's so full of hurt and I really am near tears, even after reading it for the third time in my life.
This belongs to the kind of stories you don't forget.
