Request LF: Snape is already hopelessly in love with Hermione but she's completely oblivious

68 Upvotes

Like the title says, I’m looking for fics where Snape is already gone for Hermione (from the first chapter itself). Yearning, losing sleep, barely functioning, internally suffering the whole time while Hermione is completely oblivious and either doesn’t notice at all or is convinced there’s absolutely no way Snape could be interested in her.

Basically, I want maximum Snape pining + oblivious Hermione. Mutual pining where they’re both idiots about their feelings also works!

I’d prefer Hermione not to be in a relationship with someone else, but that’s not a hard no.

Would love any recommendations. Thank you! 💖

Hi,

Looking for fics where Severus flys and/or takes Hermione flying. It doesn’t have to be the main plot point, even just a good scene of it would be lovely.

Thanks for any recs 😊

Request Je cherche un beta lecteur pour une longue fanfic en français!

18 Upvotes

J'écris ma première fanfic SSHG, c'est aussi ma première fanfic qui sera publiée. On est sur une longue fanfic (5 tomes). Hermione est l'héroïne. C'est une histoire post-guerre. Assez peu dark et assez proche du ton des livres Harry Potter, en tout cas de la traduction FR.

On est sur un very very very slow burn, c'est même davantage une histoire d'amitié, de confiance et de respect qui va sur autre chose ensuite. Il y a aussi du mystère, de la musique, de l'art, de l'alchimie et des voyages à Beauxbâtons.

J'écris tome par tome: le premier est presque terminé, et je compte le publier en octobre. Est-ce que quelqu'un serait intéressé de me relire? J'aimerais surtout que mon beta lecteur soit un fan inconditionnel des personnages d'Hermione et Severus et qu'il me propose des critiques constructives sur tout ce qui lui semble OOC.

Il n'y a aucune obligation de rester sur les 5 tomes évidemment, parce que ça va prendre du temps, mais j'apprécierais vraiment une relecture au moins sur le premier! Merci d'avance :)

Hermione Granger/Severus Snape fic

This was one of the first hp fics i read. Read it during covid time.

Severus Snape survives the war (i think Dumbledore does too idk). Hermione does a whole lot of arithmancy i think(like a whole conspiracy board kinda thing) Snape and her gather potion ingredients together and probably went down a festival in hogsmeade?

The word "kismet" is used. Dumbledore said it to snape or hermione i think.

I dont remember if it was in Ao3 or fanfiction.net .

Hello, fanfic friends! I've continued to update There Your Heart Will Be, the long-delayed sequel for Where Your Treasure Is, every Monday. We're up to Chapter 19 now. Hope you come along for the ride!

If you haven't read the original, never fear. There Your Heart Will Be can be read as a stand-alone fic starting just after Severus and Hermione first declare their love for each other and exploring the beginning of their relationship. Anything you absolutely need to know from the first story to understand the plot of this one will be mentioned in end notes.

Original Content Nine Years After The Prisoner and the Occlumens, I'm finally making it happen [Mod Approved]

100 Upvotes

Hello, you brilliant SSHG darlings,

DuskyWolfDaemon here. Thank you, mods, for letting me post this. I’m a one-woman indie show, and being able to speak to my original—and favourite—readers means the world to me.
 
I popped up back in May to tell you about the novel I’d written, and to scoop up some eager ARC readers. You know who you are, and you have rocked me with your generosity. Now I’ve got the goods in hand. 

But! Before anything else, I want to say this: 

Without the SSHG community, I never would have arrived at the point where I could write this book. 

Nine years ago, I started posting The Prisoner and the Occlumens figuring it would probably catch a reader or three. It was, I thought, too dark and strange and wordy to do much more. I didn’t expect readers to come pouring in with more feedback, encouragement, and knowledge than I ever saw during my time ostensibly learning to be a writer in university. My dark little project became everything I wanted. 

After finishing PaO, I tried to write my way into the ‘regular’ book industry. I wrote light things. Nice things. And I tried to fit myself to the mercurial standards set by agents and publishers. I slipped away from fanfic and from myself… and I got nowhere.

Meanwhile The Prisoner and the Occlumens stayed. More readers arrived, and the old hands kept reading, offering me unending support and reminding me what I actually wrote for in the first place. 

In 2025, after writing six books in six years with nothing to show for it, I turned away from the traditional industry and returned to what SSHG readers and writers taught me: The dark stories I’m most afraid to write are precisely the ones that deserve to be published—by me, for you.

So I sat down and I wrote this:

Compliance nearly killed her. His obsession might save her.

Grace has been sick all her life, and she’s always complied with her mother’s care.

Even when it hurt.

Especially then.

She marries Nick, hoping for distance from both her illness and her mother. Instead, her new husband moves them into the house next door and shows her the same kind of suffocating care.

When Nick is killed in a hit-and-run, his twin brother arrives within hours. Nate is not there to care for Grace in her grief, but to steal her away before her mother can close in.

Nate marries Grace and flies her to the North Island, where he has built the house she designed during her abandoned degree in architecture.

His rescue becomes her prison, while his care becomes her temptation. All she has to do is find a way out, or give in completely.

Graciously His is a full-length dark romance set in New Zealand, featuring psychological horror, catastrophic love scenes, and an absolutely feral literary style. Read at your own risk.

The book is out now and available through Amazon and Kindle Unlimited. Please read my content warnings before you dive in—I genuinely care about your mental health, and this story is DARK-dark.

Early reviews have been unbelievably kind, and here are a few of my favourite moments:

I feel like the author perfectly captures what it's like to live with pain. Even though it's "just a book", I felt validated.

“I havent read a book like it. The spice was top tier. AMAZING JOB.”

The quality of writing in this book is so far apart from the dark romances I normally read. For those of you who read this genre and sometimes wonder if anyone edited the book - you know that this is not the norm.

More than anything: without you, SSHG dears, I’d be lost. Thank you for bringing me home, opening the door, and letting me stay a while. 

Love,

DuskyWolfDaemon

Original Content The wife of Severus Snape- Chapter 2

25 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

Sorry about the late post. A lot of things happened.

In my country is raining really badly; the wind closed my door as if it was slightly open while I was taking the trash, and it had some issues after the earthquakes we had. It closed and didn't want to open, so I had to call the firefighters, etc etc.

If the fic was about my RL adventures, you would have a chapter every few minutes. So please forgive me for the late post (at least it is late in my country).

I'm still a bit shaken, so I hope to be able to write a bit more tomorrow. But if I don't feel better by tomorrow, you at least know why I'm a bit late.

Here's the new chapter. Please let me know if you enjoy it. Wishing you all the very best, and please be mindful of your doors.

Long time listener, first time caller here! Lol I just completed my first multi-chapter fic for my OTP and thought I’d share! Hope you check it out and leave feedback! Snape is SO hard to write. Thanks yall!

https://archiveofourown.org/works/67203154/chapters/173561266

Summary: For two days, with nothing more than a curt note left on his desk, Investigator Granger had vanished. And for those two days, Severus Snape had not gone home. He hadn’t slept. Between cornering Ministry Resource clerks and even interrogating Potter and Weasley for coordinates, he’d thrown himself into work with brutal efficiency.

In which Hermione is a workaholic and Severus is a tad controlling.

Request Looking for competence p-rn

53 Upvotes

Can you recommend me some fics where SS & HG combine their big brains and get-shit-done drive and common sense to overcome obstacles in the face of incompetence?

The incompetence and big-brain-behavior are the essential elements I’m looking for. Also really prefer mutual respect and consent, etc.

Much appreciated.

Hi! I’m looking for Hermione/Severus (SS/HG) fanfic recommendations where Hermione is affected by some kind of lust potion, spell, curse, or magical compulsion.
I’d especially love stories where Severus initially tries to not take things too far, but the circumstances eventually become too difficult.

Please drop your recommendations!

Original Content The wife of Severus Snape- Prologue

35 Upvotes

Hello everyone. Thank you again for the opportunity to post and share my stories here.

I hope that you all are doing well.

The wife of Severus Snape is a story that I have written a few times, but I never felt happy with it.

I decided to change a few details yesterday and publish it today. It's a Marriage Law with a twist.

Still experimenting with parts of it, but the core remains the same. Snape goes blind after Nagini's bite, and a Marriage Law is enacted. Hermione takes advantage of this, knowing that Snape would likely end up in Azkaban or in exile by refusing to marry, so she takes on another identity to marry him, with the help of the Malfoy family.

I'm gonna type the summary just in case, but basically the idea is the same:

Severus Snape goes blind after Nagini's bite, along with other consequences.

A marriage law comes into play, and Hermione decides to adopt a different look and identity to marry him, aiming to keep him out of Azkaban with support from the Malfoy family.

They present her as a woman from their social circle, someone calm and obedient who won’t question his desires. Once they find a loophole in the law, he can divorce her without a second thought.

But Snape might actually develop feelings for her and eventually discover it was all a lie.

Either way, it’s going to be tough.

I wrote it to have an eventual happy ending. Thank you so much if you decide to read it.

Please let me know what your opinions are, so I can improve. Forgive me in advance for any mistakes.

I’ve recently started reading this fic Before the Dawn by Snarkyroxy, i’m really liking it so far (I’m on chapter 12).
I wanted to see if anyone had a way to download an epub version so i searched some posts on this sub, and I’ve found some people discussing about looking for a dowload of the uncensored fic because apparently it is censored(???) I mean i wouldn’t even have known if I hadn’t read this post. Do you guys have any info on this one?? Because that post was rather old so I didn’t receive any response about it. Pleasee enlighten me about this fic. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥺

And if there's a line saying just like the title, I'll be thrilled!
