Far Beyond a Promise Kept by oliversnape starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 180]
Snape never wanted anyone to know of his promise to Dumbledore, but has realised that he can protect Potter much better by taking a less passive role in the boy's training. Actually liking Harry Potter has never been part of his plan. mentor/guardian.

    Oh, I am looking forward to the next chapter! I'm intrigued by the changes you've made to the beginning of Prisoner of Azkaban, and I really like the flow of the story. It's nicely paced, and it definitely kept my interest.

    Snape's dismissal of the Knight Bus was SO in character for him! *grin* And thanks for writing Harry so that he sounds like recently turned 13 year old. It's quite refreshing to see him behave his age, and to "hear" him talk like a child of that age really would.

    This is definitely going to be a story for which I will keep watching for updates.

    Well done!

    More please! This is an exceptionally wonderful story. I love the concept of the Gemini school, and I found all aspects of the storyline thus far very intriguing. I particularly thought that the way you turned Snape's opinions of Harry from despising him to helping him was extremely well developed and that the changes all make sense and are well presented. Well done!

Out of the darkness came light by Morgana starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 32]
On that fateful Halloween, Severus entered Godric's Hollow to find Voldemort dead and Lily and Harry missing. The mystery sent Sirius Black so insane that he spent the next three years searching for them. He found them. It was not a happy discovery.

Warning, begins with gothic horror but becomes a sweeter story as the chapters go on.

MINDSCAPE - The Healing Journey by chrmisha starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 176]
When an Occlumency lesson goes wrong, Snape learns more about Harry’s past than he ever wanted to—and it changes everything.

Can Snape and Harry come to a mutual understanding of sorts to defeat their greatest enemy—themselves? Spring of 5th year, A/U. Completely written and posted in chapter installments.

    More please! :-D

    I am really enjoying this story. I feel very badly for Harry and Severus both, because they have so much to overcome considering their past relationship. I look forward to seeing how they grow and change and interact as they go through this effort to properly heal Harry of all of his past injuries. And, I must admit, that I'm really looking forward to seeing how the Dursley's and Umbridge are dealt with...

    I wish there were more pages to turn! :-)

Potions Prodigy by watercrystals starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 45]
When Harry arrived at Hogwarts, no one expected Professor Snape to be his favourite teacher – no one, except the mysteriously familiar witch teaching DADA.

AU. Romance tag is for Lily/Severus, but isn't relevant until later in the story.
