sshg fic recs part 2
These are the massively long completed fics that I love. ^_^
Some had quite different moods and themes to others, so I put them into different categories. They won’t all be exactly the same, of course, and maybe you’ll feel I mis-sorted them; it’s possible, I haven’t read all of these recently, and my memory of them might not be completely accurate. But I wanted to distinguish from the angsty ones that leave you with bittersweet feelings from those that might be more upbeat or humorous, so it’s easier to pick something based on what you’re in the mood for. ;D Of course, all of these fics are romances- I originally had Angst/Romance and Drama/Romance, etc. before I realized it was superfluous. *facepalm*

A Rare Bird
Hermione learns to deal with her sadness
Angelica’s Sorrow
Post battle/Severus must find a way to help four people damaged in the war. Will he admit he loves one of them or return to a love from his past?
Breeding Lilacs Out of Dead Land (warning: non-con; unless otherwise specified, the party involved will be Snape by default; I can deal with him being forced by circumstances to rape her, but unless the fic's too awesome to be ignored, I can’t handle fics where other characters are involved *shrugs* Maybe that’s weird, but that’s just what I can tolerate)
The victim of a brutal rape, Hermione Granger left the Wizarding World nine years ago. Considered dead by all who knew her, it is a considerable surprise - and to one man especially - when she returns, particularly as she does not return alone.
Damnation of Memory
DH-EWE: With every generation, a Dark Wizard rises. Hermione Granger has survived one. However, after nearly thirteen years, a dead man returns to inform her that she must fight again, and this time, Harry Potter will not be the one to save the world from madness.
Invictus
Convicted as a Death Eater, Severus Snape is condemned to have his mind and magic ruthlessly torn from him. As restitution for his crimes, he is sold into slavery - and bought by Hermione Granger.
Mephistopheles
After releasing him from a frightening ritual, Hermione and Snape engage in a clandestine mission to find Dumbledore. However, they soon realize that the situation is much more complicated than either had anticipated.
♥ Splintered and Broken ♥
He had watched as the thin wood snapped across her knee with a violence he had not known she possessed. He had been her teacher for seven years and had never seen this girl give up at anything. Voldemort wins, Hermione leaves, Severus waits.
♥ The Apprentice and the Necromancer ♥ (note: dark and angsty and will make you wibble into your pillow at intervals; warning: non-con on Snape’s part)
Summary: Hermione saves Snape’s life in the Shrieking Shack. While he is still in coma at St. Mungo’s, slowly recovering from his injuries, he’s put on trial for his crimes. In spite of Harry’s efforts to get him pardoned, Snape’s freedom comes with a condition. He gets released on probation for three years. To prove his social rehabilitation, Snape needs to find a wife within these three years, or it’s a life-sentence in Azkaban for him.
But finding a wife is not as easy as it used to be in the wizarding world. To prevent genetic defects resulting from constant inbreeding among purebloods, a marriage law has been passed. The wizarding genealogies have been bespelled so that only people with favourable combinations of genes will receive the permission to marry.
Harry and his friends decide to save Snape from Azkaban and to find him a wife. Naturally, things go very wrong and Hermione ends up being volunteered for the job.
Trying to win Snape’s trust as his apprentice, Hermione discovers that there’s more to Severus Snape than she ever knew. At her master’s side, she gets sucked into a web of political and magical intrigue, nefarious plots and evil schemes. Muggle-born witches and wizards die, Necromancers are afoot, a wizarding portrait stops moving, the Deathly Hallows disappear and resurface again …
And in the middle of it all, Hermione falls head over heels, hopelessly and completely in love with Severus Snape.

A Murder of Crows
Adult Hermione wants to forget the mistakes of her past. Snape knows all about secrets and lies. Forced to work together, their dislike for one another turns into reluctant desire. Will they learn to trust each other in time to stop the insidious plot bent on changing the future of the wizarding world forever?
Harbinger
Severus Snape has been pardoned by Ministry decree, but not everyone is pleased that he has returned to teaching at Hogwarts. Original Prompt: 1. Hermione graduates from Hogwarts, Snape is still a teacher at Hogwarts. He gets himself into a snag, and she finds out that in addition to being a snarky, dark, short-tempered bat-like teacher, he actually is a vampire, and only a few teachers know. Bonus points for great interaction between Snape and other teachers. EXTRA EXTRA bonus points for a mentally and magically strong Harry.
3. Vulnerable and psychologically insecure Snape post-war, he requires Hermione's (and others') help in overcoming his difficulties, and finding a life after Hogwarts and without the guidance/dominance of two masters. During his time mending, he realizes the value of both Harry and Hermione, and bonds with Harry and their mutual love for his mother, while also realizing the similarities between Lily and Hermione. Please don't make this a sappy romance! I'm looking for a mature and slow-growing relationship story that probably works best as a gen!fic.
Author’s Notes: I’m afraid I’ve cherry-picked and twisted my recipient’s prompts a little, not to mention that I’ve employed a couple of conjectures which have been bandied about the fandom post-Deathly Hallows. Although I’ve read only one story using any of these gimmicks, it seems naïve to think it and the others haven’t been used elsewhere. If there is any similarity between this work and any other, it’s entirely unintentional, I assure you.

Summary: Vampires aren't the only undead in need of a little love.
Prompts: 1. Post-DH and EWE. Hermione is Head of Magical Law Enforcement and has to deal with a brutal, ritualised murder at Stonehenge which has unfortunately been well-publicised in the Muggle media and blamed on 'witchcraft'. The Minister for Magic is breathing down her neck because the Muggle Prime Minister is breathing down his. In her harried state, she runs across a very much alive and kicking Severus Snape. How and why is up to you. And what does Lucius Malfoy, whose estate is close to the crime-scene, have to do with anything? 2. Post-DH. Hermione, Harry and Ron are roommates in Grimmauld Place and driving each other up the wall. Harry is mooning over Ginny, who seems to have developed commitment-phobia. Hermione is fretting over a choice of career, having received Outstanding in all her NEWTs. Ron is a dog Animagus and drooling all over the furniture. Molly is being her usual over-helpful self. Kreacher's obsequiousness knows no bounds. One stormy night, a bedraggled and homeless Severus Snape turns up on their doorstep and the noble Gryffindors decide to take him in.
Author’s Notes: I've combined the two prompts to create something that doesn't quite resemble either of them, for which I apologise.
