Notes: Post-Deathly Hallows AU, rather cracky.

"Oh, hey, whaddaya know." A man passing on Nicollet Mall stopped and grinned at Severus. "Twins."

His face. His voice.

That accent.

That horrible, horrible accent.

"Only if you were born ninth of January, nineteen-sixty, and adopted out of Manchester, England," snapped Severus.

"Hey! Whaddaya know? We are twins!"

He hadn't survived Nagini's bite, after all. He had died, and gone to hell, and this was his eternal torment, in penalty for the never-to-be-expiated sins of his youth.

"Welcome to the Twin Cities, twin brother!"

Severus blinked. "I'm not dead. Am I?" he added hopefully.

His twin frowned. "No."

Damn.

Title: Ask Someone Who Cares

Summary: Severus helps Draco build a new life for himself after the war, and in the process finds his own way towards healing.

Notes: Written for Dollar-chan, for the Snapedom Summer Fest 2008. This story was inspired by these pictures of Severus and Draco: On the Run (gen), Childhood (gen), and Study Session (slash, work safe).

Writing Draco sympathetically was a challenge for me. Unlike Severus in this story, I've never been particularly fond of Draco. However, I do think that in the last couple of books he showed (along with his more negative traits) signs of change for the better, glimpses of a potential, eventual maturing in perspective and behavior, so I built on that side of him in developing this story.

I took the idea of Severus fleeing Hogwarts with Draco at the end of HBP, combined with the idea that Severus had been a friend of the Malfoy family since Draco was a child, and came up with Draco accompanying Severus on a post-DH exodus from Britain's wizarding world. The relationship of Severus to Draco in this story is that of a mentor or father figure, but the Severus/Draco picture gave me the idea to write them as gay men; not, however, in relationship to each other.

Gen story about gay characters. Nothing explicit. DH Epilogue cheerfully ignored, of course. ;-) Severus lives!

Summary: Harry, in search of a post-war sandwich, encounters Draco Malfoy, a stash of weed, and an unexpected reconciliation.

Notes: Written for Venturous for the Snapedom Summer Fest 2008. Inspired, very loosely, by Venturous' Beltane bonfire picture (NOT work safe!) as well as by a fair amount of back-and-forth brainstorming with Esmestrella on her LJ. I strove to incorporate related spiritual/religious themes thoughtfully, though I can't vouch for how intelligently the characters handled the religious aspects. The end result: slightly hallucinatory, but I hope it pleases. Beltane themes, California grass, and the closest I'll ever get to writing a Snarry. ;-)

Notes: AU fate of Severus Snape. Of course. ;-)

He remembered, always, the first time he had realized that Lily was dead.

As in, truly, madly, deeply realized.

She wasn't coming back. To him. To life. Ever.

And Severus had decided that he wanted more in his life than a memory.

He had celebrated his illumination by heading out to a Muggle bar and getting laid.

With every act of making love, always to a Muggle, he erased another layer of damnation for having ever uttered the unpardonable word.

And now, baptized in the tears of Fawkes, Severus was finally set free.

He went forth, and sinned no more.

Summary: Severus lives.

He had thought the infernal trio would never leave.

Slowly, slowly, he allowed his eyelids to relax. Tears welled, relieving the arid burn of seemingly endless minutes of wide-eyed Occlumency. The vial of phoenix tears would soon complete what the Blood Replenisher and Antivenin had begun. The memories, relinquished, would not be missed. It was time to let them go.

He had known it might come, someday, to faking his own death. He had not expected an audience.

Slowly, slowly, Severus Snape rose. He bowed, exited, and drew the final curtain on a dark and miserable chapter of his life.
