    Summary

    Just after his eleventh birthday, Sam Winchester received a letter dropped off by an owl of all things. Dean Winchester knew two things: First, their dad would absolutely kill a wizard, even if he was family, and second, this Ilvermorny place was not far enough away from their father by any stretch of the imagination.

    Harry Potter chose a very important train compartment on his first ride to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. There was a small boy sitting alone in the compartment reading, and this boy had on his person three knives and a bottle of holy water. Harry Potter had found his people.

    Severus Snape thought he must be extremely unlucky to be the only faculty member at the school who had a muggle landline phone at his summer residence…unlucky, but also so very thankful. Because after countless shocking, concerning, and frankly bizarre calls from one of his students’ guardians each summer, a Dean Winchester, well, Severus’s life was taking on a completely new and welcome direction.

    Summary

    “Potter…why is a horcrux of the Dark Lord sitting in your living room in muggle Surrey?” Severus Snape slowly and calmly asked as if he was holding onto his last thread of sanity while waiting for the answer.

    “Well, we met back in my second year at school, became friends since I didn’t know who his future self was, he tried to kill me, I killed him, and then he floated around the aether for a couple years,” Harry sighed. It was all so very complex.

    ---

    Everyone has had a summer from hell after what happened with the Triwizard Tournament. Literally everyone, even the part of Voldemort's soul that he thought he'd gotten rid of so very long ago. When Harry Potter's worst enemy asks for his help though...well, that pesky saving people thing just really gets in the way.

    Summary

    The Ministry sees fit to meddle at Hogwarts in an attempt at curtailing rising pureblood sentiments, to try and lure prospective recruits away from the Dark Lord Nott.

    Unsurprisingly, the Heir of Slytherin is stuck together in a room with the Chosen One.

    ...the worst part is probably that it bloody works.

    Summary

    Harry Potter never stood a chance. Severus Snape was straight as a wand, still pining after Lily, and completely unattainable. That was the story - until Death tried to help.

    Now, Harry wakes in another universe… as Hades Potter, twin brother to the so-called Savior. His parents are alive, the Marauders are just as insufferable, and the other Harry is a pompous show-off possibly dating Ginny Weasley. But Hades? He has one mission: win over this world’s Severus Snape.

    Armed with memories from a life of war, a much darker kind of magic, and a dangerous secret prophecy, Hades navigates a fractured Hogwarts, makes unlikely friends, and unearths a future he never dared to imagine - if he can survive long enough to claim it.

    Summary

    Severus Snape had made his choices long ago and didn't think he could ever be worthy of forgiveness. He lives a life of regret for what he has done and resentment for what has been done to him. What Albus Dumbledore asks him to do requires tremendous courage and sacrifice - but he carries out his penance willingly because he knows he is the only one who can do what he can do. Sirius Black has escaped from Azkaban, but the horror of his wrongful imprisonment cannot be forgotten. Every day he faces a battle that no one else can ever truly understand, but love for Harry and hope for a better world and the family they'll someday be gives him the strength to keep fighting with an open heart. Harry Potter has always had too much asked of him but he's never had to fight alone. While being forced by Dumbledore to learn Occlumency from Snape over the summer, he realizes that he's had a protector in the professor all along. With the discovery of common ground between them, nothing will ever be the same again. Everyone deserves a second chance.
