After the infamous werewolf lesson Severus Snape didn't think classes could get much worse. But thanks to third-year Gryffindor v Slytherin antics, the impulsive actions of Ron and Draco have gone too far and this time they've cut to the heart of the Potions Master. This sliver of PoA canon re told from Snape's point of view will have you see Potions from a different perspective.
Severus Snape and Remus Lupin are forced to share a compartment on the Hogwarts Express. It's already an uncomfortable situation, made worse when events take a dark and dangerous turn. They have to help each other and rescue the train, but they each have secrets that will forever keep them a world apart. Lovingly divergent from Prisoner of Azkaban, one-shot, for lovers of canon.
The year is 2006 and Severus Snape has been missing, presumed dead, for eight years. 0ut of the blue, he writes to McGonagall asking for his job back as Potions Master. Trouble is, the son he knows nothing about is starting Hogwarts the same year. Snape thought he had nothing left to learn, but discovers "it is a wise father that knows his own child." SEQUEL TO THE UNEVEN ORBIT.
SORRY having to re-load this story due to technical difficulties.
Severus loves Charity epic - this is a long story! Set against the backdrop of Prisoner of Azkaban, from mainly Snape POV, explores who Burbage is and what happened to her, and her mysterious relationship to Snape. It is Canon compliant - or at least respectful. Lots of Hogwarts teachers, MoM and original characters/sub plots.
The death of Charity Burbage is one of the most memorable, and disturbing, in the Harry Potter canon, and yet we know virtually nothing about her. And what was her relationship to Severus Snape? This is the story of an unsung hero, and the man who loved her.
