Severus is feeling grumpy. As usual. This time it has to do with a certain blast from the past come back to Hogwarts. He wants to be as menacing as possible to keep him away, as there are just too many emotions to deal with when he's close. And dealing with emotions is one of the few things Severus Snape is very bad at.

Rachel Simons just needs to get through Potions class. But he's her favorite professor, and she's got it bad. A oneshot spin-off of Leaving the Stone Nest.

My idea for the Snapeloveposts prompt on tumblr: A student can hear her Professor's thoughts, he finds out.

Rachel's world is shifting as she deals with her first breakup and prepares to graduate from Hogwarts. She finds herself searching for someone to cling to for a sense of stability and distraction from her her loneliness. A young professor, who is tasked with a few secret roles as well as Potions teacher, happens to be that someone.

Just a oneshot of an idea. Written from a prompt during SnapeLivesWeek a few months back. I should be finishing chapter 5 of Stone Nest but here I am, doing this instead.

Rachel's world is about to shift as she graduates Hogwarts and enters the real world, and she finds herself searching for something to cling to for a sense of stability. A young professor, who is also tasked with a few secret roles other than Potions teacher, happens to be there. The two discover that they find what they need in the other person, even if just for a while.
