Summary: Write a story in which Lupin says to Snape, "Sevvy - let's go on a tea date!" It MUST be in character (really, it'd be too easy in a crack fic, don't you think?). You decide how Harry fits in.

(this challenge highly encouraged by my best friend. blame her.)

Categories: Brothers, Canon, Enemy, Father, Guardian, Healer, Mentor, Teacher, Misc Characters: Remus, Snape and Harry (required)
Summary: Write a story in which Harry AND Ron both somehow look up to Snape. There shall be NO SLASH in this story AT ALL. Bonus if you somehow work Draco in to this looking up to Snape as well, but not required. Ron and Harry should still be friends. Bonus if it's a full length story.

Categories: Mentor, Guardian, Healer Characters: Pomfrey, Snape and Harry (required)
Summary: Severus and Harry land in Middle Earth! :) They are too young to go on the quest, as they are young elves/elflings! :) Younger than Legolas - for they have not reached their majority, despite the fact they were adults prior to this. How they got to Middle Earth is up to you - perhaps they died in the Final Battle, or they decided to get away from the old world and wanted to start living in the new one. Regardless of which way you choose, they have family/kin in Rivendell! :) You can have either Erestor or Elrond become Severus' father (I would love Erestor for this, as I could see where the snarkiness comes from). Severus will be feeling lost and unsure of himself - without his potions he'll feel like he has no purpose. Bonus if you have him working and learning with Elrond making salves and whatnot for the healing wing, and maybe even learning the healing arts himself. Extra points if you have Harry joining the lessons as well. Severus will be his usual snarky self. Both he and Harry will have some previous memories intact, not all. Both will exhibit the abuses they suffered - Severus at Tobias' hands and Harry's at his relations' hands. At any rate, both he and Harry become family before their arrival in ME and during. How they are family I leave up to you. :D (Don't you just love freedom of choice?) They will also need to learn the history of the Eldar and other subjects that they need to know to live in their new world, so Erestor will be teaching them both at the same time. Anything else that is plausible I leave to you dear author! Hugs and Love, Vanime

Summary:
  1. Almost a 1000 years ago Salazar Slytherin, Godric Gryffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, and Helga Hufflepuff, four brilliant, but foolish 15 year olds, drink unknowingly from a magic stream. Thus, never aging outwardly, any older then 15, nor ever able to be injured.
  2. Immediately after quenching their thirst the stream disappears.
  3. They very quickly learn to glamour their age 1 year older, every year.
  4. Slytherin and Ravenclaw marry at twenty.
  5. Gryffindor and Hufflepuff are good friends, but marry other spouses.
  6. The four founders have families, although thankfully the children are not immortal like both or one of their parents.
  7. At 125 years of age Slytherin wants to leave the school and get a quiet divorce from Ravenclaw. Why he wants to leave the school and Rowena is for you to decide. Although I would really prefer that he not divorce his wife for cheating or for doing the cheating.
  8. Throughout the decades and centuries the founders ‘die’ and take up new identities. Sometimes they de-age themselves to the age of 9, and get magically adopted into a wizard family. Where they look like the wizard family who willingly adopted them, assuming them to be a real kid.
  9. In the present day, Harry’s 5th, 6th, or 7th summer, Harry is out on a very hot day, and sees a new man-made stream (or fountain) running through the park. Upon drinking from it he soon feels strange and worries when it then disappears.
  10. Harry, back in his room, at the Dursley’s or living at 12 Grimmauld Place, unknowingly writes a help letter to Rowena Ravenclaw. Who comes to enlighten Harry that he now is immortal like she and some others.
  11. Ravenclaw’s current ‘new identity’, for many years now, is Professor McGonagall OR Hermione Granger. You decide which one.
  12. Now who are the other ‘disguised’ founders? Teachers OR students?
  13. Actually, to make this even more interesting have James Potter also be an immortal. Although whether he is one of the founders or just someone like Harry, who drank from the stream as a teen, is for you to decide.
  14. Was Kingsley Shacklebolt around during the 1st Voldemort war? If not maybe his image could be James glamour. Also, I will allow amnesia to explain why James didn’t raise Harry if need be.
  15. Voldemort, hears about the small group of immortals, and captures either Salazar Slytherin OR Godric Gryffindor. Whom he succeeds in possessing for a time.
  16. The three remaining founders, and the Order of the Phoenix go to rescue their possessed friend, unaware that on this day/night their 1000 anniversary of drinking from the stream all those years ago that they once again CAN be injured.
  17. The possessed founder is badly hurt, and Voldemort, while trying to escape in spirit form is finally destroyed.
  18. Lastly decide whether Harry now has to live a 1000 years before he CAN naturally get older again, OR was a second way found before they went off to kill Voldemort.
The point of this challenge is to keep mostly in character whomever you choose to be the founders of long ago. Thus, if you decide Hermione is Rowena Ravenclaw KEEP Hermione’s personality intact. Giving some of the main characters an OLD history was to give them added wisdom, experience, power, and a chance to be allowed to act a little differently. I wouldn’t mind seeing a less moody Ron Weasley as Gryffindor OR Slytherin. Or if Albus Dumbledore is a founder that would explain why he can move so fast when pressed to be somewhere in a hurry.

NOTE: Women can only be Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff. Men can only be Slytherin or Gryffindor.

Summary: Severus decides to de-age himself to give himself a second chance at life, and Dumbledore assigns Harry the job of taking care of the 7 year old Potions Master. One problem. Severus remembers everything, but keeps this fact hidden. Does Harry find out?
Categories: Brothers, Reverse Characters: Dumbledore, McGonagall, Snape and Harry (required)
Summary:

This challenge only has a phrase that Harry has to say at some point in the story. It doesn't need to be word for word, you can twist it a little, but the gist must be the same.

The phrase is said by Harry, and to whoever you want: "After the divorce, my Mum dated three Muggles: the first one didn't like children; the second one didn't have a sense of humor; and the third one was a teacher. Then she married Snape."

The only restrictions are:

  • Mum has to be Lily.
  • Harry must be 13 or older.

Anything else is up to you! I'd like to see what you can come up with. :)

Summary: I really want to see a story where, through a potions mishap concerning both Albus Dumbledore and Severus Snape they are deaged to being teenagers with no memories of ever being an adult.Snape must be suspicious of what has happened. Dumbledore can react in any way you think of. If you have Snape remembering who Dumbledore is that's okay, because Dumbledore was a professor or headmaster while Snape was in Hogwarts as a student. The two deaged professors must interact with the current teachers and students at Hogwarts. Bonus points if: 1. Harry is the one that finds them after the potion accident. 2. Snape befriends Harry and both Harry and Snape dislike teenage Dumbledore. 3. Hermione is the one who brews the potion to get Dumbledore and Snape back to their original age. 4. If Harry and Luna realize that they like each other due to something said by one of the deaged Professors. 5. If Dumbledore and Snape retain their memories of being deaged. 6. Also, major bonus points if after Dumbledore and Snape regain their original age Snape adopts Harry to get him away from the Dursley's because Harry lets slip that he doesn't always get to eat while he's there. This fic must take place in Harry's fifth year or later. If it takes place after the sixth year it will by necessity be an AU since I want Dumbledore to be deaged.
