(In full on AO3, The Courage to Live by ShadowAceSeverus, now complete. Engagement on Wattpad really dropped this year, so I switched platforms!)
Upon surviving the Battle of Hogwarts, Severus Snape is at a loss. For nearly twenty years, he devoted his life to defeating the Dark Lord and protecting Harry Potter. Now, with the war over and the Boy-Who-Lived safe, he finds he has precious little left to fight for - until a chance therapy session shows him that he ought to be fighting for himself.
With the war coming to a close and Wizarding Britain starting to rebuild, Severus starts on a journey to find meaning and joy in a life that's given him little of either, discovering what it truly means to value himself and his own happiness.
