    Summary

    Icy rain washed down over Severus’s head and shoulders, but the sensation was nothing to the chill that snaked its way down his back. The dog stood on its hind legs, forepaws braced against the gate, its teeth bared in a silent snarl a mere hand’s breadth from Severus’s throat. This close, the intelligence in its eyes was no longer deniable. For one sharp, treacherous instant, Severus froze, wondering what, exactly, was standing in front of him.

    -

    Sent to investigate the failing wards at Number Four Privet Drive after his least favorite student turns his aunt into a helium balloon, Severus Snape finds himself saddled with a horrifically abused thirteen-year-old boy and an infuriatingly clever Omen of Death that sheds on the sofa. With a werewolf at the staff table, dementors encircling the school, and a crazed mass-murderer on the loose, Severus is surprised to find that he does not mind the entanglement as much as he would have expected.

    Summary

    Lord Voldemort is dead.

    You-Know-Who is now You-No-More. He popped his clogs. Topped himself. Was terminated with extreme prejudice.

    And, while that’s great news and all, George Weasley isn’t too keen to celebrate the whole business; he’s a bit busy coping with the brutal murder of his other half. Not that he’s trying to inconvenience you with his grief or anything.

    (He’s totally trying to inconvenience you. If he’s not having a good time why the fuck should you?)

    A look into the lives of George Weasley and Harry Potter after the battle of Hogwarts. They're suffering.

    But it's okay because they love each other. They just don't know it yet.

    Summary

    The Defense Against the Dark Arts position at Hogwarts is cursed. After years spent mitigating the damage, Headmaster Severus Snape knows this better than most. So when the Board of Governors insists on hiring the world’s most famous Quidditch star to take the post, he is less than enthusiastic.

    When Harry Potter finally arrives — entitled, impulsive, and masking an injury that may spell disaster all on its own — Severus must reconcile his worst fears with a startling truth: Harry may be exactly the teacher the school needs.

    A post-Quidditch career AU in which fame, survival, and grudging respect collide, and the line between headache and hero is surprisingly thin.
