Summary
Harry Potter thought that once Voldemort was dead, things would be easier. He was wrong. The war was over, but not the one in Harry’s head.
Living with Remus was supposed to help. So was being with Draco. But no matter how much love he’s offered, part of him still believes he’s too broken to deserve it. And with Snape awkwardly trying to connect to him, and a mind healer asking questions Harry doesn’t want to answer, healing feels harder than any battle he’s ever fought.
Draco Malfoy finally feels like his life is falling back into order. He’s living with Snape (boring but tolerable), his mother is healing (marvellous), and he’s dating Harry Potter (finally).
Everything should be perfect. But he quickly learns that just because Voldemort is dead and his loved ones are safe, things aren’t easy. He has no idea how to support Harry’s bad self-esteem and panicked spirals. He doesn’t know how to convince Harry that he’s not leaving. But while Draco’s never been patient, he’s more than willing to try. Because for Harry, he wants to.

Summary
The summer after losing Sirius, Harry is lonelier than ever. In a moment of impulsivity, he learns things about himself that he isn’t sure how to handle.
Back at Hogwarts, Harry has to deal with a new school year–a new potions professor, Occlumency lessons, trying to keep up with friends who seem to forget about him, and, as always, Draco Malfoy. But beneath it all, there’s something else. The feeling that there's something deeply wrong with him.
As war looms closer, Harry has to learn what to hold onto and what to let go.

Summary
“It’s always been the three of us, Harry,” Hermione assured him, her arms wrapped tightly around his middle as he sobbed into her shoulder.
“We’ve dealt with enough strange things mate,” Ron whispered in his ear, his chest pressed against Harry’s back and his arms holding him tight. “Let this be a good thing.”
With the wizarding world thrown into grief by the end of the war, Harry turns to his best friends to help him survive the terrible losses.

Summary
“You understand, Professor,” Harry began, after a moment, “that I don’t have my N.E.W.T.s. I never even finished seventh year. Between everything, I never had a chance the first time around, and then afterwards there didn’t seem to be much point. Hermione argued for it, of course, but I was so tired of Britain. So technically, I am completely unqualified for the position.”
“Quite a way to begin an interview, Mr. Potter,” McGonagall said, dryly.
Or, three years after the war, Harry Potter becomes Hogwarts' newest Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

Silver Spoon Child Eating off a Paper Plate by MellarkandArt

Summary
Set at the start of book five. The ever-busy Dumbledore is a little delayed in sending that howler to Petunia, and so when Vernon insists that Harry needs to leave the house as he's clearly a danger to the family, Harry is packed and down the road with no protest, causing the blood wards to break. The Dursleys instantly become a vulnerable target for Death Eaters, and Harry himself is snatched by a Death Eater, but it's Severus Snape and this is coming from a Severitus writer so you've likely already figured out where all of this is going.
***
Snape didn’t become Harry’s guardian because he wanted to be. He did it because it was the best option they had at the time.
Snape didn’t start giving Harry Occlumency lessons because he wanted to help him. He did it because it’s what the headmaster told him to do.
Snape didn’t grow to care about Harry because he wanted to. He just did.

Summary
Severus pauses, gauging his surroundings with his senses, not yet reaching for his wand. The boy is near, he can hear the slight hitch of breath, can almost see the shape near the water-swollen stream. The rain continues and the trees appear as inky skeletal things before him, dripping and shining in the moonlight that wavers in and out of dark clouds.
Harry runs away and Snape is sent to find him.

Summary
He arrives on a boat during a particularly stormy day.
Harry knew Astoria Greengrass had sent for a husband, someone to keep her company on the particularly dreary and dark winter days on this remote island. Harry didn’t know who it was she had arranged to be sent here. All he knew was that the weather was horrid today, and the Portkeys had never properly worked in this remote corner of the North Sea. The island was special, its magic working in odd and surprising ways.The last person Harry expects to find on the beach is Draco Malfoy.

Summary
Harry is lost and broken after the war. He has gone to countless funerals, broken up with Ginny, moved back into Grimmauld Place—which feels darker and dirtier than ever before despite how much he tries to fix it. He feels lonely and desperate, but he won’t ask for help, and he still can’t cry.
When he agreed to help the Aurors at Malfoy Manor over the summer, he thought that he would be breaking dark curses. Harry never thought that he would actually spend his days sorting out dusty books with Draco Malfoy, or teaching him how to cook.
Little by little, as they begin to navigate their life post-war, Harry and Draco become intimate…in more ways than Harry could have ever expected.
