Summary: Harry and Severus discover they share a hobby/interest (other than Quidditch)--something that they are both REALLY passionate about. They bond over it.
Bonus if:
- it's something really unusual
- it's something they don't want anyone else to know about (embroidery? writing musicals? collecting something really odd? So many possibilities ...)
- they hated each other before the revelation but afterwards they become very close

Summary: One of two options:
1) Harry accidentally kills Snape (or thinks he has) and has to deal with the consequences.
2) Harry actually deliberately kills (or tries to kill) Snape. By 'kill', I don't mean in a duel, I mean actual murder. Can be pre-meditated or crime of passion, BUT it still has to be in character. Have fun working that one out ...
Can be any category, any other characters involved. No character bashing, no slash.
Bonus if Snape (if he survives) knows Harry did it, but covers for him.

Summary: Harry and Snape meet somewhere on the London Underground. They could be alone or have any characters with them.
Can be set anywhere during, pre or post Hogwarts years. Their relationship could be good, bad, or somewhere in between. Can be any length, AU or not. No character bashing or slash.
Bonus points for a pun based on any station name. Double bonus points if Snape is the one to use it. Triple points if Harry doesn't get the joke.

(This is just to start you off, and because I've used the resources before. If you want to set the story between 1999 and 2015, you'll need to find the correct map elsewhere. Unless you don't care about anachronisms, but I know I'm not the only one who prefers to be accurate.)

Summary: Lots of people break the rules to get the job of their dreams--faked CVs, lies in interviews. Now just suppose Trelawney was one of them ...
When she had her interview, Dumbledore told her she wasn't what he was looking for. He was leaving. She knew once he walked out the door, her dream of working at Hogwarts would die.
So she faked the prophecy.
I'm thinking a fic exploring Harry and Snape's reactions to this information. Both would of course be devastated--and probably livid--to know that the prophecy was completely false, possible even made up on the spot (or maybe planned in advance as a backup plan?) The irony obviously being that Voldemort's treating the fake prophecy as real made it come true.
No slash, no character bashing (except Trelawney if you want, I think the plot calls for a bit of it at least). How Snape and Harry's relationship goes is completely open as is canon setting. I'm just interested to see this combo of characters, really ...

Summary: Harry dies. (Properly.) Severus brings him back, either temporarily or permanently, for any reason, using any method. Can have any or no consequences.
The fic doesn't have to include the challenge title, but it's there if you want it.
Length and canon setting/compliance open. No slash or character bashing. Otherwise, anything goes.

Summary: Lily and James were in hiding when Harry was born, and as such had little or no visitors. Word spread that they had a baby called Harry, and the automatic assumption was that Harry was a boy.
The Boy Who Lived is left for the Dursleys, with a letter telling them the baby is their nephew ... but when Petunia first changes 'his' nappy, she discovers a niece instead. Harry is actually a Harriet.
Petunia being Petunia, she decides she doesn't care, it was the wizards' mistake, and raises Harry a boy anyway. Since Harry closely resembles her father, especially in glasses, all that is needed is to keep her hair cut short and dress her in Dudley's old clothes.
Harry does not figure out the truth until after she has started Hogwarts, and after the initial shock, decides she doesn't want anyone to know ...
