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.

Summary
Sirius Black does not die. But this does not mean that it is easy for him to live.
Or: a butterfly flaps its wings and Sirius does not go to the Department of Mysteries. What follows from that twist of fate is a story about the long, destructive shadow of a schoolboy rivalry; a story about surviving, and how surviving is sometimes more difficult than dying; a story about the fragility of beauty, the gentleness of hope, and the value of choice.
It is also a love story.

Summary
GRYFFINDORS. Go up the marble staircase and left, and keep travelling in that general direction; you’ll want to be going towards your left, because Gryffindor Tower is on the easternmost side of the castle, and you’re coming from the north/north-west. Once you reach the second floor, you can take a short-cut! Concealed behind a tapestry is a narrow staircase to the upper floors...
A guide for people writing fic set in Hoggy Warty Hogwarts, who want to know where everything is, a first-person walk-through, written as if a Prefect is handing out pamphlets to all the poor ickle firsties. ^_^’
( Includes a map I made, back before the new illustrated editions came out when we still had no official guide, based on JKR's. )( UPDATE: now includes a rough map of Hogsmeade! )

Summary
After the blood wards collapse and Harry is cast out by the Dursleys, he’s left without a guardian—just as Fudge circles, eager to seize custody.
With little time and even less options, Dumbledore proposes his grand solution; Snape as Harry’s new legal guardian. But a simple adoption on paper won’t satisfy the determined Minister. To avoid Fudge’s grasp, Harry and Snape must set aside their mutual hatred and act as though they’re a devoted father and son.
When he goes undercover with his life on the line and the Ministry watching for any misstep, Harry finds himself wrestling with unexpected emotions and begins to wonder, how long can a lie be told before it begins to feel like the truth?
