The Ringing of the Empty Sound

by cmwinters

Written as a response to the HP_remnants challenge on LiveJournal, with the prompt "And the picture frames are staring down, and the ringing of this empty sound, is deafening and keeping you from sleep", a lyric from a Dashboard Confessional song. Although not a song-fic by any means, I did listen to the song repeatedly while writing.

After the war, you have to start picking up the pieces.

Let Someone ELSE Tell You About the Birds and the Bees

by dracontia

Do you mean to say that there might be issues with sex at a coeducational boarding school? (Gasp!) And someone might, just might, be upset enough to demand that the school start teaching where little wizards and witches come from? In response to the Sex Ed Challenge at Potter Place, the wildest parody I can devise that does not involve a Jarvey. AU--oh, so goofily AU!

Selling Snape

by Azrael

"My name is Hermione Granger and I finished Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in June 1998 with Outstanding passes in all of my subjects. After a comment from my former Potions professor stating that I did not have the disposition to be a successful Potion maker, I have lost my dream job to one Draco Malfoy. To get even I have decided to devote my career to humiliating Professor Severus Snape in public." An oldie - made for the Selling Snape challenge - AU and a bit silly...

Death's Dominion

by MMADfan

Severus Snape’s life was changed when he was hit by an errant spell, and he comes to a decision that defies Dumbledore’s wishes. Even the fate of the wizarding world is altered by this one ill-cast curse and Snape’s subsequent resolve. Long after the spell itself has dissipated, its effects continue echoing in the lives of Severus, Albus, Minerva, and Hermione, and they bring with them a shadowy figure whom Snape does not trust and whose motivations and influence on Minerva are murky. Conspiracies and schemes swirl around Severus as he continues on his path of deception to his final confrontation with the Dark Lord.
Canon-divergent post-July 1996 in the HP universe. Not DH-compliant. (Partially HBP-compliant.)


A “Light” fic of love, loyalty, and redemption.

Pertinent warnings in individual chapter summaries.

Voted First Place, Gen Fic: Best Legacy Story, in the HP Fanfic Fan Poll Awards for Spring/Summer 2013.

A Long Vernal Season

by MMADfan

Severus Snape had believed that, for him, life after the Dark Lord was an impossibility, that his death was not merely justice, but necessity. He has survived, though, and now he must learn to live his new, unexpected life, and to find something beyond the narrow existence to which he was once bound. A Snape-centric post-war fic.

A Death’s Dominion sequel, but may stand alone. Not DH-compliant. DH-disregarded. Rated M for overall content. Much of it is "T," but the ratings rise to MA later for a reason, hence the switch to an M-rating for the earlier chapters. Watch the individual chapter summaries and author’s notes for ratings, warnings, and the characters appearing in that chapter.


Part One finds Severus dealing with some very immediate and dangerous consequences of his final confrontation with the Dark Lord more than three months before.
