Summary: Based off the story premise for the movie, It's a Boy, Girl Thing. Harry switches bodies with a girl he recently met - she is Ravenclaw, anything else about her is up to the author - and they must find a way to reverse it before anyone finds out. A cursed object must be responsible for the switch and the only thing that can turn them back is for them both to get a little more open minded. It happened because Harry and the girl were both being little snots and talking badly about each other in whatever way the author wants. Snape must suspect Potter of being gay...because of how he acts when the girl is in his body...and so they have to avoid the Potions Master as he tries to figure out what is going on and WHO it is going on with.

Seeing Through Defenses by InsominasDaughter

[Responses - 0]

Summary:

It's been months since the start of their Occlumency lessons together, yet much to Snape's disgust Harry seems unable to make the slightest bit of progress. Frustrated by what he believes to be sheer laziness on Harry’s part, Snape decides to “attack” Harry’s mind in order to show the boy what would likely happen should he fail to learn the skill.

Yet, when he does, he is surprised to find nothing but the most irrelevant memories in the boy’s mind--a mind seemingly without a single bad memory. Knowing that such a mind does not exist, he decides to probe further…

Maybe the boy is better at shielding his thoughts than the professor ever gave him credit for…

Requirements:

Snape must angrily invade Harry’s thoughts (be it in a way to “teach a lesson” or in sheer frustration)
Snape must notice the lack of bad memories (it being almost as if the memories were removed, leaving a hole… but not in the same way as with usage of a Pensieve.) although Harry does have them
It must be stated or implied that Harry does have his own way (a natural talent or a defense mechanism) to keep the darker memories out of his professor’s grasp (be it intentionally, sub-consciously, or other)
Snape must eventually discover the truth of Harry’s home life (up to the author to set the level of violence and punishments)
Snape must in someway comment on how Harry really wasn’t as incompetent as he thought (be it to himself or another)

Misc

Mentions of detentions with Unbridge
Can be before or after OotP (ie: choosing to resume lessons) or even AU (after the series end)

Stairs by Ivy-Green

[Responses - 0]

Summary: After the disastrous Occlumancy lesson where Harry views Snape's memories, Harry runs out and back to his dorm. Snape, still furious, lets him go only to become afraid that he hadn't made his point clear enough to Potter. Livid, Snape rushes to the Gryffindor dorms to catch up with Harry. Snape catches Harry right before he is going through the portal and threatens Harry about never telling anyone and to never speak of what he's seen and takes a step too close. Still confused by the memories he'd seen and not thinking, Harry pushes Snape to get away. Unfortunately, the push is hard, and Snape is sent stumbling backwards and begins a long, painful fall down the stone steps. Horrified, Harry rushes down the stairs to the professor, but Snape's unconscious. So Harry rushes Snape to the hospital wing. Despite having a few broken bones and some brusies, it looks like Snape is going to be okay, but when he wakes up, he doesn't remember anything; not his name, not his birthday, nothing. Guilt stricken, Harry decides that he should help out as best as he can considering he's the one that hurt Snape in the first place.

Mood: Overall more of a dark feeling to it, but with some light hearted moments.

Rating: Any.

Deal Breakers: I don't want any real romance in the fic. Maybe some hints, but not much, so no major snog fests.

Bonus: Harry can convince Sirius to actually HELP rather than sneer and laugh about the situation. Put in some snippets of Lily or Lily and James would make a very happy Ivy.

Overall: Just have some fun with the idea. A Snape with a blank slate should prove to be VERY interesting!

Sevitus - Lucitus by Lia

[Responses - 0]

Summary: Lucius/Snape extra-marital (Lucius is married to Narcissa) .... Sevitus (Lily carried Snape & Lucius' son on Snape's request- known only to Snape, Lily and Potter). Lucius is truly a death-eater. Snape is Draco's godfather and Draco does love him.

Sirius is back from Azkaban and from some documents, has the misconception that Harry is Snape/Lily's son. In a fit of anger against Snape (Sirius still accepts Harry), he discloses all this to Harry.

Complicated mess results where Lucius has no idea that Harry is his son with Snape, whom Lucius still loves. Snape is caught in between spying, painful memories of past vs. present (Harry is better off as a Potter, Malfoy is a DE, Draco may be pushed towards darkness even more if he gets to know of all this in bitterness, Narcissa is going to complicate matters even more, Harry wants to know the complete truth and is feeling particularly angry, Sirius does not really wish to give up Harry's custody, there is a war going on, etc.).
