    Hufflepuff is the house of the leftovers, the losers, the forgotten. Well, Tom Riddle thinks, it's time to change that.

    Notes:
    Hufflepuffs leave no one behind. They may finish last but they always finish together.

    Summary

    Severus had always known that he would die in a painful, most horrifying way ever since back when he was almost beaten to death by his father, then mauled by a werewolf, then thrashed around by a maniac overlord. His miserable, luckless life only seemed to lead to that one day when he would be struck down by a bloody snake, of all things.
    Bleeding out in front of Harry Potter was just the last humiliation Lady Destiny had in store for him.
    Suddenly staring into Potter senior’s eyes again while being levicorpused was just the icing on the cake.

    Notes:
    Not your average time travel fix it. Snape and Dumbledore have the best interactions. This is a bildungsroman for a man who lived and died as an emotionally stunted teenager. Dumbledore is the perfect blend of melancholy, suspicion, trauma, and morality. Not a pairing fic but James/Lily is in the background as I prefer.

    Even though this is largely from Snape's perspective it is so clear everyone thinks he's a baddie. It's horocrux hunting with a twist

    Summary

    Neville's shoulders hunch further. It's not just his hands that are shaking now; his entire body trembles.

    It's not fair. And, when push comes to shove, Harry always has been a Gryffindor through and through.

    (AKA sometimes it's easier to be compartmentalize your own abuse than someone else's; life isn't fair to Harry but that doesn't mean he'll allow life to be unfair to his friends)

    Notes:
    author's tags say this isn't for Snape lovers but this Snape lover always appreciates a fic that recognizes his absolutely despicable cruelty. Harry and Neville are only boys and Snape is determined to take all his misplaced rage and abuse onto them.

But Moony has not forgiven Sirius, a fight ensues and the werewolf becomes separated from the others. Then the unthinkable happens. In the morning Remus wakes to find the thing he fears most in the world. He goes to the only person he can think of who won’t judge him – because Snape already knows what he is. A monster.

    CONTENT WARNING: Death, violent murder. Gore (mild-ish?). Graphic descriptions of past violence and murder.

    Summary

    Albus Dumbledore beams at her from across the small table, every inch the affable, eccentric he has made himself out to be. She smiles back, a pretense of polite interest, as she sips her tea and tries to avoid eating any more of the slice of what has turned out to be far too sickeningly sweet Victoria Sponge.

    Euphemia takes tea at Hogwarts.
