Out and Out Angst
Sometimes, you want angst: stories that have tension, drama, and a sharp edge. They might even end on a happy or hopeful note, but you can't call them upbeat romances.
This box is for stories with an angsty edge. They don't include serious violence or non con (which you'll find in the "Dark and Twisted" topics box), and they don't involve character death or sheer tragedy (which is the "Cry Your Eyes Out" box). They just include . . . angst. Lovely, tense, edgy angst.
Atrata, Not Quite Kissed Harry isn't 18. Severus remembers. Then he forgets.
Beth H, Himself His Own Dungeon Snape/Harry, future Snape/Harry/Voldemort implied. Snape isn't quite as dead as everyone thinks. Neither is Voldemort.
Cluegirl, Blood and Fire After the deaths of Dumbledore and Voldemort, Severus Snape must learn to cope with yet another Master; Harry Potter.
Cruisedirector, Absolution series Click through links to find story.
Summary: Some mistakes must be paid for again and again.
Ellen Fremedon, The Long Summer Trilogy: Returns of the Day (read review here), Within the Pale and Noons of Dryness (read review here). This series is highly recommended.
Ellipsical, Forethought and Afterthought First Snape, and then Harry, reflect on the end of an affair.
Flora, Containment. Snape has an idea to help Harry save the world.
Gatewaygirl, Finder's Fee series: Finder's Fee, Spy's Game, and Winter's Sport, Wizard's Weapon. Harry and Snape go into business together. Their relationship is nuanced, edgy, self-interested, and fascinating. See review here.
Ishafel, Conjure-Man Read review here
Jay Tryfanstone, The Puppet Master (link is to warning page; click through to titles list). Read review here
Maeglin Yedi Penance Is The Play Harry wants revenge. Harry has a plan. But is Harry Slytherin enough to avoid his own trap? No Good Deed After the war, Harry wants answers. Snape's willing to give them. For a price.
Majenta, Say It Properly His name finally cleared, Snape returns to Spinner's End following the aftermath of the war. An unexpected visit leads him to believe that his life may not be quite as empty as he had thought.
Megyal, My Kind of Guy Unrequited. Harry is a happy-go-lucky kind of guy with a boyfriend; Snape is repressed and teeth-grittingly, fist-clenchingly jealous because Harry likes him but doesn't like him.
Mosh, Through The Trees Scroll down to find story. Snape endeavours to wake Harry up. Read review here.
Nimori, Fall Into Charybdis Scroll down. A tale of the further woes of the Boy Who Lived -- who, having escaped the monster Scylla, has fallen into Charybdis (Charybdis being he of the hooked nose and greasy hair). Which is all a terribly pretentious way of saying out of the frying pan, into the fire. Read review here
Nym Shattered (link is to warnings page. Click on "fanfiction" and then find title on list of her Harry Potter stories. This claims to be a rough draft, but is wonderful as is). In order to save Harry's life, Snape must create a bond between them. But can Harry learn to live with that? 5 years after the end of "Shattered"
Opaquevision, What Remains, Else All That Matters. Read review here
Perfica, The Care Of Infants (scroll down list of her titles to find this one) A curse from Voldemort regresses Harry to infancy. Snape must protect him while the Order tries to find a way to reverse the spell.
Rex Luscus, Wormwood (SS/HP/RL) It's after the final battle, and Snape is lucky: Harry and Lupin got to him first.
Sansa Splinter. Read review here Life in Kind Harry believes Snape deserves to be immortalised. As usual, he rushes in where angels fear to tread.
Snapetoy Unhealthy Fascination Harry overhears something that makes him very curious. Scab Snape/Harry unrequited - SS/HP but only in Snape's dirty little fantasies.
Switchknife, And Tell Me Who Is Victor Read review here
Tradescant, Fidelius Harry, all at sea and out in the cold. And its sequel, Secret Keeper Severus Snape is kind of tense.
