REC: Lost Property (Snape/Petunia)
Title: Lost Property
Author: _hannelore
Rating: PG
Characters/Pairings: Severus Snape/Petunia Dursley
Fandom: Harry Potter
Summary: Lily thought she was untidy, that she just had a habit of losing things. Petunia didn’t consider it stealing, not if she never told anyone. Now, when Severus Snape unexpectedly appears in the safe house where the Dursleys are being hid, Petunia finds a reason to open the box of Lily’s things that she has kept hidden for years.
Why you should read this …
It captures Petunia and Snape’s feelings about Lily perfectly: a blend of love and hate for what they wanted from her and couldn’t have. The emotions as they share these memories are very raw, and while this isn’t a very logically plausible scenario timeline-wise, you can easily imagine this happening if they had the chance: Petunia needing a release and Snape being the one to hold those memories with her.
