Young(er) Snape and Harry. Not quite in character, but nonetheless a very enjoyable reading experience.

Severus Snape is the only one who can heal the injuries inflicted on Harry by a vengeful Bellatrix Lestrange.

The dialogue is especially well-done. The writing isn't dense but everything happens within a month. So in a way, it is a rather tight story. There are almost only scenes, not much flashbacks/descriptions/... .
I like drachenmina's works.

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.

It's 1976, and a strange new transfer student is about to turn Severus Snape's life on its head . . .

I looked at different sites and this is more than likely incomplete. I like it anyway, so here it goes.
Usually, I don't like it when people travel back in time, change their name completely and don't resemble their prior selfs a bit. Caecelia made it possible for me to imagine just this. The focus is quite a lot on Severus Snape. It's a small meta on his younger self.

Finally. This is the story which introduced me to RaeWhit almost two years ago. Since then, I've been in love with it. RaeWhit here shows again how to introduce subtle hints - the actual turnabout is a surprise, even if you already had some inklings. I was sure that Snape somehow survived but like Harry, I was deceived and believed it was Bat. Drarry and Snarry in one, so basically two for one. Go for it. In my opinion, RaeWhit's best story.

I love post-war, and this just is a down-right favorite of mine. Both, Snape and Harry, are depicted a bit darkish, with a manipulative streak. And most enjoyable, it's Dumbledore who beats them at their own game. RaeWhit explores their dark sides in this, after putting them as equals by making Harry a professor, too. While the actual story is not that outstanding, there's the usual subtlety RaeWhit's reknown for.

After the war, it's Harry's own choices that place him in unimaginable circumstances.
At AO3
One of my favorite dark stories set after the actual war against Voldemort. It is rather realistic in some ways, in others a sound alternative but not really likely. This story is almost like a meta fic - it picks up several dark fic elements but doesn't revolve around them, it merely hints at them, such as Stockholm Syndrome. I recognize several psychological complexities in there, and unlike other authors, RaeWhit doesn't force it on you. They are there for the audience to see and think about, but do not become some sort of psychological thesis. This closely reminds me of Chrysalis. While Chrysalis lacks the dark mood, it also deals with several psychological aspects which are explored in a subtle manner.

A bit of a borderliner. The story is not that unique but the structure is solid, the main idea, too. I can't find faults with the story but I felt it was a bit too easy to read for one of RaeWhit's works. Usually, there's a lot of subtlety inbetween the lines. This story lacked in that particular department but alas, it just didn't feel like one of RaeWhit's, this doesn't make it a bad fiction or lacking in comparison to other works.

Well, there's one sure thing, though. This story was a surprise. While I consider myself an Occam's Razor fan, I no longer can say that it is without doubt her best story. This one connects multiple "ideas" and a more modern approach (chatting, computer, phone) than her other works - yet the literary side did not suffer, there are plenty references. It's RaeWhit through and through, but a more playful one.

Belonging and deserving, needing and wanting--desires of the human heart that Severus and Harry must face when they're forced to the little village of Lochdubh to settle a very late codicil of Albus Dumbledore's will.
At AO3
This is a monster. And fit for a Snarry fanfiction. Many believe that in order to tell a proper Snarry Story, you need to write a novel at least. While I do enjoy short fiction, I completely agree with this notion. To get them "right" and deep enough to show their prospering relationship, you need time and space.
I am not a particular fan of "oh no, Harry has got family" besides the occasional Severitus story - but I didn't mind because here it isn't important. The author doesn't push the revelation to the front. This story isn't about Harry and Julian. It's about Snape and Harry, coping with the past, finding new prospects in their lives.

Illustrated beautifully and while I don't see it in any real relation to The Price of Magic, I like it just the same as the authors' other work. Commonplace Magic is no classic work, though it serves me well as a Harry Potter AU. There aren't many, and most aren't well-written. This one is, and I totally see Snape as a chemistry teacher. Anti-social, snarky, witty.

Haunted by the ghost of a former student, an ex-wizard struggles to preserve magical knowledge for future generations.
When Harry Potter died, twin wands' explosion wiped Europe clean of magic. Enchantment-free, Gringotts crumbled into a mass grave for goblin bodies. Pixie corpses covered the meadows. Romanians buried their last dragon.
Wizards remained. Thousands flooded Muggle streets with useless chanting, unable to return home through non-existent wards.
They had nothing except pride. Remember that when watching a middle-aged, redheaded waitress and her daughter taunted by children for their strange way of talking, passing the sallow-faced, somber neighbour who prefers candles to electricity, finding a sky-blue twinkle under matted hair of a homeless man.
Pride was the reason they survived.
