Summary
The owl whit-whooed gently and nipped at Harry's little finger, only then did the teenager notice it, and the silver canister it carried.
Frowning, Harry detached the canister and examined it. It hummed with various security charms, and had the motif of the Ministry of Magic on the cap. As he touched the cap the charms released and he was able to take out the thick scroll of vellum inside. As he pulled it out it enlarged itself to twice its size. There was a seal holding it together with the image of a knight's helmet on a shield background.
He touched the seal and it dissolved.
As he pulled the scroll open across the corner of the breakfast table and began to read, he stopped chewing and froze, the last bite of toast forgotten in his hand.

This was a one-shot, until thousands more words appeared. ☺️ Note: this story is intentionally interested in moral ambiguity, unintended consequences, and emotionally messy human beings. The characters will not always make good decisions.Bookmarked by englove

Summary
Severus Snape survived the encounter with Nagini, unbeknownst to Harry. The former Potions teacher/DADA teacher/Headmaster finds himself lacking a purpose following the victory of the Light side. However, one day thanks to that annoying The-Boy-Who-Lived's clumsiness, he discovers something he wished not to find out. Severus Snape can't be left alone by the universe, it seems. But maybe the universe is giving him something to live for?
or
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince again (as if every single one of the seven books wasn't about Harry Potter's relation with the Half-Blood Prince to some extent), but this time it's his dad.
The title comes from Waiting For The End by Linkin Park.

Summary
"I am the adult here, Potter. This is no longer your fight alone."
When Harry plunges into the Pensieve during the Battle of Hogwarts, he expects to find answers about Voldemort’s Horcruxes. He doesn't expect a hidden birth certificate, a desperate letter from his mother, or the devastating realization that the man who spent seven years making his life a living hell is actually his father.
Left with a truth that changes everything, Harry walks into the Forbidden Forest not to die, but to see if it's truly too late to build something out of the wreckage. Fortunately, Severus Snape has never been one to follow Dumbledore's scripts.

Summary
On the first day of summer after 5th year, Harry is sure that he will have the longest, worst summer of his life. Still grieving Sirius and with thoughts of the prophecy, his only thought is to make it to Hogwarts in the fall.
His plans are ruined when a Death Eater attack leaves the Dursleys dead, the blood wards destroyed, and Severus Snape's cover as spy blown. Now, both are wanted by the Dark Lord and in danger. For their own safety, Dumbledore sends the two to a safe house, far to the north -- a cottage by the sea. There, Harry and Severus learn far more about each other than they ever dreamed.
(Post OoTP, but alternate HBP. Pure Severitus angst. No Snarry romance, but maybe a little Hinny. Not beta read or Britt picked.)
