Summary: Sirius saves Harry from his new guardian Severus Snape.


Ideas: (lifted pretty much verbatim from Jan_AQ's 'Saved from Sirius' challenge)
  • Snape allows Harry to do something dangerous, and Harry doesn't (or wouldn't) make it out alive this time
  • Snape does something illegal in public while Harry is with him (can be Muggle or Wizarding world)
  • Snape wants to keep Harry away from Hogwarts for whatever reason
  • Snape wants to train Harry, and it gets out of hand
  • Snape has a flashback, and not understanding it, Harry gets in the way
  • Snape loses control of his emotions, and hurts Harry
  • Giving some bad advice
  • Giving himself away as a Death Eater to the Ministry, Umbridge, ect. which gets Harry into trouble he can't get out of
  • Harry is hurt when Snape takes him to a dangerous place
  • Snape does something immature or accidental, and Harry may pay the consequences i.e.: accidentally locking Harry out of the house; losing track of Harry at a bar when he got drunk; allowing Harry to overdose on a potion for "fun"; having Harry around dangerous potions, forgetting Harry isn't a potioneer
  • Anything else you can come up with!

Summary: On that fateful day, Quirrell was in Diagon alley an hour earlier and successfully stole the Philosopher's Stone. The Philosopher's Stone is a panacea, curing all diseases, injuries and aging: when insane, sadistic Voldemort drinks the Elixir of Life he is restored to Tom Riddle, handsome, manipulative, charming, intelligent and thoroughly Machiavellian.

Tom realizes that before his first death he had descended into total insanity and had made a huge number of foolish and dangerous choices, culminating in his decision to kill the Potters. He decides to go into hiding for five years and, behind the scenes, regains the esteem and loyalty of his followers and political allies.

During the spring term of his sixteenth year (age of consent in UK), it is somehow discovered that Harry Potter is homosexual and the deeply conservative Wizarding Population turn their backs on their saviour.

This is the chance for which Voldemort was waiting

NEED TO BE INCLUDED:
  • Severus is Harry’s father.
  • When Severus discovers that he is Harry's father, it is a matter of honour to make amends and gain Harry as a son in heart and law.
  • Pureblood families treasure their children.
  • Voldemort convinces Severus Snape that he did not murder the Potters.
  • Only the purest of Pureblood houses, who maintained the Old Religion aren’t homophobic.
  • Voldemort is severely misguided, rather than sadistic/psychopathic.
  • Listen to 'Devil in Disguise' by Elvis first ;)

Summary: Harry rebels against the unreasonable constraints that society insists upon putting on him by getting rid of his old clothing and finding the 'new him!'

The new him consists of: fez caps, a new mustache, a penchant for burritos, the kind of black and white striped shirt and red scarf that can only be found in old French films, loin cloths, ect...

Anything goes as long as the new him consists of something other than punked or gothed!Harry, or a sudden desire to wear expensive Wizarding robes all the time and speak with a cultured accent... Harry must rebel in a way that no one quite knows how to deal with, except perhaps for his Potions Professor.

Summary: Harry needs extra tutoring in Potions, perhaps to obtain an advanced degree, or to make special potions he needs. He puts an advertisement out and Snape responds.

Options: Harry may be an adult, or you may rewrite part of a book to incorporate this request (maybe Harry and company in The Deathly Hallows need to make a potion beyond Hermione's skill).

Summary: Hogwarts offers summer school to select students who fall behind. Is it at Hogwarts? Who teaches what, and how do they decide which students need the extra help? Do Houses still exist?

Alternatively, maybe students who do amazingly well are allowed to attend as well... maybe as tutors, or to explore their favorite subject more in depth.

Summary:

*It's been a long time since Harry Potter defeated Voldemort.Harry & friends are enjoying a peaceful, (in their sheltered view) almost perfect world.

*Remus Lupin is alive, Severus Snape supposedly dead.

* Snape's innocence was never discovered. He has gone down in the annals of history as Dumbledore's murderer and Voldemort's right hand man, second only to Him in evilness and darkness,someone who was feared only less than the Dark Lord himself and who almost crippled the wizarding world - only to be found mysteriously killed in the aftermath of the battle.

*A Severus Snape sighting leads to a frantic search by the MLE under Harry, aided by the Order & the DA

* During the search, they find various memories/people/letters/other evidence which question their view of the history of the first as well as the second war.

*Case reopened, the Wizengamot once again opens a trial, during the course of which, deepest secrets are revealed, buried truths uncovered, hidden evidence brought forward and gradually, the entire truth comes to fore.

*Snape and Lily had been married. Up to the writer whether Harry is his son or not. Interaction between Harry and Snape should be mainly during interrogations/the chase.

Summary: Post War fic. Voldemort has been defeated. While working for this, Harry got emotionally attached to Snape, as Snape along with Dumbledore mentored Harry and helped him defeat Voldemort.

Severus Snape has always wanted, loved two things in life the most: Lily and power. Now that Lily is avenged he pursues power. He is getting almost as powerful as Voldemort, and in time might even become as powerful as Dumbledore. Power is hard work + magical strength + knowledge + intellect according to me, so Snape is getting there, but right now lacks in knowledge and experience.

Snape becomes the new Dark Lord (perhaps he is just touted as the new Dark Lord by the media/people who have always considered him to be dark, or maybe he is against the way Wizarding world worked and is trying to bring a revolution - no racist basis, please - or maybe he truly HAS become the next Dark Lord).

Harry has to lead the war against him now with help from his friends, and little help from Dumbledore, who has gone into retirement out of disappointment over Severus' choices.

Summary: Harry comes down with Dragon Pox, or some sort of magical malady he has never experienced before, and freaks out. (You can make the magical malady up!)
