Severus Snape has an esteemed reputation to maintain, so he often spreads himself too thin. He becomes so overworked that he is assigned an assistant. You're kind and polite, but will not tolerate disrespect...definitely his kind of helper. Soon enough, potions aren't the only thing brewing between the two.

Love can be found at the most unexpected places at the most random times. And Severus Snape never thought he would find it in a Muggle, not after Lily.

Ana Gamp has abilities. Strange ones. And over the years she kept discovering more about them. And that made her enter a world she wasn't prepared for. Made her join a battle that wasn't hers to fight for. She couldn't be more thankful.
