Summary
“I must not have heard you correctly, Headmaster,” Severus said flatly.
“You did, my boy. This isn’t only a favour to me, you understand.”
“But there must be trust," Severus insisted. "A bond… or some sort of relationship between mentor and pupil for Occlumency to be taught correctly! The only bond the brat and I share is one of mutual loathing.”
“Now, Severus, you are an adult and a Hogwarts professor. Surely, you can find a way to mend broken bridges.”
Broken bridges? Broken bridges? There had never been a "bridge" to begin with! Not with Potter, the carbon copy of his school bully, who spoke, acted, believed himself so superior to anyone else he might as well be the second coming of his father. There had always only been damp planks slogging down a river which separated them on two opposite banks. No bridge to speak of.
OR
Summer of Fifth Year. Dumbledore decides Harry should begin Occlumency immediately. Harry and Snape start seeing a lot of each other. Neither is thrilled, especially when they begrudgingly realise that maybe, possibly, perhaps, they might have more in common than they thought.- Language:

Summary
Severus Snape never wanted to teach Harry Potter Occlumency. The boy is arrogant, reckless—just like his father. Or so he believes. But the mind is a fragile thing, and memories are not always so easily contained. What begins as a reluctant assignment shatters the certainties Snape once held, forcing him to confront an uncomfortable truth: he was wrong. Terribly, unforgivably wrong.
Just a heads up: this is not canon at all. Total divergence. Consider yourself warned.

Summary
After Harry blows up Aunt Marge, Dumbledore decides it's not safe for Harry to spend the rest of the summer at the Leaky Cauldron, and instead sends him to stay at Spinner’s End with Professor Snape.
It's tense, awkward, and teeming with misunderstandings...but it might be the best thing that's happened to either of them. They're both been without a family for a very long time.

Summary
The Avatar is gone.
Katara was taken by the Southern Raids at only 14 years old and brought to the Fire Nation capital, where she was forced to become a sex worker in the capital's Red Houses.
At 17, she's sold to the top House: The Red Flame, where girls serve only the elite, including Royalty.
Growing up in this world, Katara has learned to keep her head down and do what's needed to survive.
That is, until two years later, when she is 19 and meets the recently un-banished Fire Prince, notorious for his short temper and closed-off nature.
See how their worlds collide in the most unexpected ways.- Language:

Summary
Pyotr Fradkov was a politician. The slave was an omega, with no legal rights. They certainly didn’t vote, had no say in Pyotr’s future career, and no one would fault him for hurting one of the bitches. It didn’t mean he had to be any more cruel to that tortured little thing. It didn’t mean he could force himself not to help them, once he learned they were pregnant.
