Snape Fanfic: The Blade

"Have I not paid? I have given my all to the light, that I might live in dark. I have given to the dark, that I might aid the light."

- aldalindil

Just found a lovely little piece on Whitehound's site. It's short and quite magical. The Blade is not really a story, it's just words put together quite poetically, a random musing that creates a picture of Snape that I love. It's by someone called aldalindil, and was written in 2002, which is interesting because she presents the Snape we got to know only in the later books.

Go there now!

Snape Fanfic: 12 Steps Against Inertia

"..her hair will make beautiful roots, he thinks.."

- tsubaki-hana

12 Steps Against Inertia is a well-written fanfic that starts with Snape's childhood.

It's by tsubaki-hana, written on 5 August 2007, is a one-shot, and (sniff) tragedy. Contains Deathly Hallows spoilers so if you haven't finished reading that, you may want to wait before clicking on the link.

Snape Fanfic: Midsummer's Eve

A one-shot (i.e. full story in one chapter) by ReeraTheRed, written on 1 August 2003. Midsummer's Eve is about Snape as a 15-year-old, going back to his ancestral home to carry out one final task. Stars Snape and Dumbledore and is rated PG with angst and intense emotions. Which basically means if you're a Snape fan, you'll be feeling a bit weepy and wounded at the end of it. Quite nicely written, and I enjoyed reading it. Sad but good.
