Summary: In the books and in the movies it appears as if Harry has difficulties focusing or controlling his impulses. What if Harry was diagnosed with ADD or ADHD (Attention Deficit Disorder or Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder)? What if there was only one other adult person who understood this muggle disease... because he actually had it?
Musts:
~ A smart Harry who is understimulated
~ Some type of fostering relationship developing between Sev and Harry
~ Harry being told by Snape that he is not dumb

Summary: When Harry's and Voldemort's spells collide at the end of the final battle, it has an unexpected effect: they both go hurtling back through time, either to the instant after Voldemort's first destruction, or to the end of fourth year (when their wands first connected).
Must:
-Harry has trouble remembering the future clearly; it either shows as an altered perspective (he thinks the way his future self did without the memory) and/or seer-like visions of the future
-Harry decides to give Snape a second chance, knowing what he does now. He's more polite, studious, thankful, stands up for him, etc
-Voldemort also has future knowledge, and they're constantly countering each other (e.g. Voldemort moves the Horcruxes, knowing them to be in danger)
-Harry's also less antagonistic towards Malfoy, BUT they're not instantly friends
-Harry's foreknowledge shouldn't allow him to solve everything, and some of his efforts should end up making things worse
Maybe:
-If back to pre-Hogwarts, Harry gets Sorted into a different House (like Hufflepuff or Slytherin)
-No pairings or light slash preferred; I generally dislike romance
-Parseltongue plays a medium to heavy role
-Up to you how they interact

Summary: What if Voldemort tried to regain his body immediately after the events in third year by reviving Harry's mother to use as leverage against him and to use her as the 'blood of the enemy, forcefully taken'? What if it went wrong and instead of an adult Lily Potter, the ten year old version of Lily Evans was revived instead and somehow landed in Hogwarts? How would this affect Harry, who is at Hogwarts due to circumstances and his Potions Professor who are present when she comes? How will they handle this and Voldemort and the Triwizard Tournament?
*Note: Little Lily feels safe only with Harry and Severus and refuses to stay with anyone else unless it's both of them.

Summary: Inspired by all of those stories where Harry is severely abused but either nobody notices, or he tells and then isn't believed. In this one, a teacher/ school nurse/ neighbor notices Harry's poor condition, and the abuse (please don't make it too extensive) is revealed. Harry is removed from the Dursleys, they're arrested, and Harry ends up adopted by a nice Muggle family (possibly even changing his last name).
Because his new family doesn't have a problem with Harry's magic, Hagrid doesn't take him to Diagon (and he probably goes at a different time, therefore not meeting Draco), Harry's far more confident in himself, etc.
Up to you whether Dumbledore and the others realize that Harry is in fact Harry Potter, or if Harry's thought to be a muggleborn.
I would like it if Harry's Sorted into a different House.
Up to you how Harry and Severus interact; maybe they discover that Severus is Harry's father, but Harry doesn't want to leave his foster family.
The foster family can be complete OC's, or the family of one of the canon muggleborns.

Summary: Severus comes upon a magical box, unknown to him at the time this box will give him his second chance with Lily to do what he should have done in the beginning.
This box is a dimensional portal that allows the owner to fix one mistake in their past. It allows them to communicate with their past self and as their past self changes that mistake the world alters from what it was to the point that the box will become nothing more than a box and the wizard will have no memory of the box for that one huge mistake they had made will have changed their life onto an alternate path, the path they should have taken in the beginning.
The mythical box of changed fate.
Would like it to have a happy ending with Lily and Severus married and with a couple of kids, Harry can be in it, wether he is a potter or snape is up to you. Sev is still a potions master as for teaching, it's up to you. Lily's profession something other than a stay at home mom.
Big Appreciation if story is larger than 15 chapters. Hugs

Summary: In canon, Snape's best friend (and first love) had been Lily and his nemesis and main persecutor had been James. But what if things had been different? What if Severus' best friend had not been Lily, but James? How would this vital difference effect not only Severus himself, but how he responds to James' son?
~ James and Severus must have been close throughout much of their education, regardless of other friendships/associations
~ Severus' relationship with Lily is up to you, but he must have known James first and have been closer to him
~ BONUS if Lily played the role of Snape's antagonist
~ BONUS if the story is longer than six chapters

Summary: I was looking at the various categories, and to my surprise, there are no stories under 'Crossover'!
So, this challenge is straightforward enough: write a crossover between HP and another fandom in which Harry and Snape feature as main characters.

Summary: One of the characters died. In fact, many are still mourning this person's loss. But what happens when the one who'd so recently been buried returns, not as a ghost, but flesh and blood? Had they really died, or was it some kind of mistake? Maybe it had been imagined, or a vision, perhaps? Maybe, only one person 'remembers' that this character should be dead.
Bonus if:
- The person who died is Harry or Snape
- You include the funeral at the beginning of the story
- The story is multiple chapters
[ Report This]
Summary: Sirius and Severus, somehow, come back from the dead as children.

[ Report This]
Summary: Harry grows up with two sets of memories, his own and...Lily Evans? Must include the myth that when a wizard or witch dies, his/her memories start escaping and if another person physically touching the person, the memories seep into that person. You can decided how Severus comes to know this, and what he does about it.
