The First Wizarding War has had a profound effect on your family, and in light of recent events, your guardian/s have made you transfer to Hogwarts to better ensure your safety. You end up befriending Severus Snape. (K , maybe eventual T/M). (This fic was a request from The Anon Who Thinks James Potter Has A Punchable Face on my Tumblr, @severusish).

The year is 1982. A 22-year-old Severus Snape is reminded of Lily Potter when he arrives at the Hogwarts Halloween dinner in the Great Hall. He gets drunk that night, and when he wakes up, he finds Narcissa Malfoy waiting for him — and she has plans to help Severus.
