Following the fall of Voldemort, Severus Snape is given amnesty by court and takes up position as the Potions Master at Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, as part as his sentence to "give back to the community" and "rehabilitate". However, when his application for the position of the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher is rejected yet again, he knows his life is going to be more miserable than it presently is. Especially since this new professor is everything he is not.

But whilst drama is firing off between the teachers in the staff room corridors of Hogwarts, intrigue and evil slithers into the safe and stable environment of the castle, sending all eyes flicking towards one another in question until many come to one conclusion:  

Who could be to blame but the ex-Death Eater, the silent and moody Potion's Master?

But the new DADA professor, Irene Twill, is not convinced. She has glimpsed slivers of repressed feeling behind the firm and placid mask of the accused man and discovered raw and beating behind the Potion's Master's stone facade, and does not intend to lose it.

A clean Severus Snape fanfiction, set in the Harry Potter universe. Get ready for a slow burn...

Shortly after Theda Desmond replaces Professor Binns as Hogwarts' new History of Magic teacher, she learns that she possesses a rare talent known only to the legendary Altier family, former founders of the French Ministry of Magic who mysteriously went missing 200 years ago. As she works to uncover the secrets of her curious origins, she develops an unlikely bond with the brooding Potions master, Severus Snape. As their friendship grows, the two begin to recognize that they share a common pain that few have experienced. Will their unique ability to understand each other set them on a course toward healing and new beginnings, or will the ghosts of the past return to tear them apart? *** 🥇in #alanrickman *** While the nature of this story wanes between humorous and romantic, it is also, in many ways, a story about the non-linear nature of grief. I hope you enjoy it. This is my first ever fanfic! Please vote for each chapter if you're enjoying the story, as this will encourage me to continue updating it regularly! Thanks! *** TW: This story will occasionally make brief references to issues such as body image, death, abuse, etc. but I try to do so in a way that is approachable for everyone. *** *This is a slow-ish burn, but patience pays off! *Our story follows the timeline of Chamber of Secrets, but will continue into later years. I do my best to keep to the canon timeline. *Adult content will be featured in future, but will not be necessary to the plot & can be easily skipped. *All original characters from Harry Potter belong to JK Rowling. *All original characters are my intellectual property.

Now too late to terminate her new job, she has to make the best of it. And then her aunt gets killed while on one of her auror missions and all the evidence seems to point to Severus. How well does she still know the boy she used to know like the back of her hand? How much can she still trust him? This story is set during Harry Potter's first year at Hogwarts.
