My very first Snape fic! Just took a look through my History, and this looks like it was a great place to start, in July 2018. Alas, my memory isn't the best, but I will definitely revisit this one <3

Summary
When Snape suddenly awards Hermione Granger house points, she takes notice. What begins as a mere curiosity quickly turns into a pattern—her once disdainful, arrogant professor now sees her for all she is worth. And Hermione realises that there is little she wouldn't do for praise from Hogwart's harshest professor.
When Voldemort tortures him after his return to corporeal form, Severus expects a broken body and weeks of pain. What he doesn't expect is a broken mind. How else could he explain his sudden memory loss or the strange, inapproptiate feelings he seems to be developing for Miss Granger?
When Severus' mind reveals the extent of his betrayal, Voldemort is resigned to kill his once trusted follower. After a prolonged Cruciatus, though, he discovers that he can easily slip into the other man's mind—and even control his words and actions. As he explores the world through Severus' eyes, Voldemort realises one thing: There is a highly intelligent, severly underappreciated young witch at Potter's side who is just begging to be turned into a weapon.
Starting in 5th year, Hermione Granger, Severus Snape, and Voldemort become inextricably linked to one another—and not everyone might survive the charade.

Summary
When a stray boy suddenly appears on his porch, the sanctuary Severus built for himself after the war begins to unravel—invaded not only by the child, but by memories he thought he’d buried and a duty he never wished to claim.
Green-eyed, silent, and wounded by magic he cannot yet control, the boy leaves Severus no choice but to help him—and in doing so, forces him to confront the past he tried to forget.
And somewhere between silence and healing, Severus has to wonder:
Is the boy a ghost of what was—or a glimpse of what might still be?Or
How Severus ended up being the go-to adult for a time-travelling past-version of the brat Potter.

Lavender Brown, Severus Snape, and the Fangs of Fate by yearofthesnape

Summary
When Lavender Brown sees someone in trouble, her first instinct is to go help, even if that someone is as unpleasant as a Blast-Ended Skrewt. So in fifth year, when Lavender has a prophetic dream in which Professor Snape is bitten by a giant snake, she immediately starts planning to save him.
Along the way, Lavender learns to enjoy Potions and even, slowly, starts to appreciate the teacher she's trying to save. Their newfound mentorship, however, makes the bewilderment Lavender feels all the more painful when Snape kills Dumbledore at the end of sixth year. What does it mean to have faith and kindness, when there seems to be so little to go around?
The future has teeth Lavender can’t predict, and all her bids for security go nowhere. But that doesn’t mean there can’t be other, better surprises in store.
Now complete! Covers the events of OotP through DH, with a short post-DH section, as follows.

When Harry fell, then Ron and the others in short order afterwards, she didn't care what the mad bitch had cast upon her. All eyes were upon him, upon Voldemort and his victory to care about something so banal as a dog. Even if that dog was her.

Summary
The last thing Severus can remember is overhearing a prophecy in a dingy, goat-scented pub. Now there’s a James Potter clone with Lily’s eyes, a much aged Minerva McGonagall, and an infuriatingly familiar woman with frizzy hair all saying he is not a loyal Death Eater. Looking in a mirror proves that he is, indeed, suddenly pushing fifty. All in all, not his best day.

Summary
Severus Snape has traded what might be one of his last peaceful summers for a tumultuous few months housing the Boy Who Lived after Hogwarts' student registry notified him of a potential abuse case at Number Four Privet Drive. If that wasn't bad enough, he finds himself revealing far more than he ever should have—and far more than Albus Dumbledore ever would have allowed—to the boy about his past, and his mother. When Sirius Black reveals himself with the intent of saving his godson from Snape, the three of them end up standing begrudgingly together to find Peter Pettigrew and clear Black's name before the proper authorities can be involved.
Harry finds solace in the unexpected care of an unjustly convicted man and an ex-death eater; meanwhile Black grapples with repressed attraction to the man he'd spent his childhood tormenting.

Summary
Severus Snape survived the war. He’s not thrilled about it.
Life after Voldemort was supposed to be quiet, preferably nonexistent, and certainly not filled with other people’s problems. Instead, Severus finds himself in a most unfortunate predicament—saddled with an unwanted role as a healer for someone who, much like himself, would rather not be here at all.
His patient is fragile, infuriatingly difficult to keep alive, and far too comfortable with her own mortality. And yet, against all logic, she’s also someone he doesn’t entirely hate. Which is concerning. Very concerning.
Trapped in a house where the furniture has too much personality, the house-elves are far too enthusiastic, and the family is distressingly nosy, Severus must endure the absolute worst fate imaginable—human connection. And if that wasn’t enough, it turns out that fate has cursed him with something even more insufferable: a very long, painful (frozen) slow-burn.
Sarcasm is exchanged like currency, reluctant care turns into something neither of them dare name, and Severus is faced with the most horrifying realization of all—perhaps life isn’t quite done with him yet.

Summary
When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.
Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.
Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH. No slash, no romance. NOW COMPLETE!
