The Severus Snape Rescue Squad's Journal

Since IJ's been eating comments recently, I decided to take </a></a>

harmony_bites' suggestion and create a post dedicated to the growing number of Rescue Fics out there:

From Longest to Shortest...

1. </a></a>

rmratliff, (BuckeyeBelle), “The Errand” 4,977 words, Angst, Romance, (PG-13)
Summary: DH FIX Missing scenes and tag.
Lovely SSHG story of a Snape being saved that is completely DH Compliant right down to the epilogue (if you ignore Harry's use of the word “was.”) The Luna in particular just shined.

2. </a></a>

cecelle, “Flying Lessons” 3,580 words, Angst, Friendship, (PG-13)
Summary: This is the second of two one-shots that provide alternate endings to Snape’s story line, so the story contains DH spoilers.
Bring out the time-turner! Yet another Hermione saves Snape story, but a variation on the theme I very much liked.

3. </a></a>

bambu345, “Saving a Death Eater” 3,035 words, Drama, Hurt/Comfort, Romance, (PG-13)
Summary: Post-Deathly Hallows plot. While Harry is immured in the headmaster’s office, sunk into Snape’s memories, Hermione is spurred into action of a different sort.
I loved this. It of course features Bambu’s usual gorgeous prose, is absolutely plausible given DH (at least up to the epilogue) and the Poppy Pomfrey—and, of course, Snape—are wonderful.

4. </a></a>

catherinecookmn, “The Design for After Living” 2,064 words, Drama, Romance, (PG)
Summary: Taking a break from my now AU-and-loving-it Rumpole/HP crossover to get a DH-related fic out of my system.
Truly imaginative magic and a creative way to get our couple together within strict bounds of DH-canon. Lovely. Truly.

5. </a></a>

igeret, “The Wizard Groom” 500 words, Humor, Romance, (PG)
Summary: Massive amounts of Princess Bride quotations & paraphrases. Minor Monty Pythonage.
Heh. Insane, but in such a *good* way. Fun, witty way of getting our hero back.

6. whitehound, “Flower Remedy” 101 words, General, Humor (PG)
Summary: 100 word drabble DH spoiler: sometimes the old ways are the best.
Really Snape and Hermione rather than SSHG, but this resurrection fic did make me smile.

8. </a></a>

a_bees_buzz, “What's in a name?” 100 words, General, Humor (PG)
Summary: All dialogue challenge
Put off by the epilogue? Feel there’s no canonical way beyond it to SSHG? Read this, and get ready to smile.

9. "Snape's Choice" by clare009
http://mujaji.net/repository/viewstory.php?sid=3
Summary: Post-DH. What happens after Harry leaves Snape in the Shrieking Shack. (This will be SSHG soon.)
Rated: K+, 2789 words

10. "Three of a Perfect Pair", by clare009 and catherinecookmn
http://catherinecookmn.livejournal.com/41782.html (also http://mujaji.net/repository/viewstory.php?sid=100)
A crackfic continuation of "Snape's Choice" (which will have its own separate continuation) that got out of hand and developed a plot, of all things.

And here's a non-SSHG Rescue Fic:

“Stoned” by Cruisedirector
http://www.fictionalley.org/authors/cruisedirector/stoned01.html
Slash: m/m, HP/SS, Humour/Parody, Post-DH
Story Summary: Harry should know better than to litter in the Forbidden Forest.

More to be added as we find them (and if we find them worth mentioning).
