Summary
The Dursleys have had enough and decided well, since Harry is now a teenager surely he can work for his own keep and sent him off to get a job as they will no longer be providing him with his needs (not like they did that anyway) and surely he can start helping pay the bills. Harry fortunately found a job that is nearby, a grocery store. As Harry settles in on this new routine he gets used it until one day on the checkout line he runs into the last person he wants to see.
"P-professor Snape?"
"Potter!"
For Harry it appears to be that things seem to be getting worse but finds that perhaps this is the start of something good.

Summary
A summer without the Dursleys was what Harry had always wanted, and at his new seaside home in Blackpool he's finally settling into life with his dad. But things can never be simple for either of them. With danger on the rise and Dumbledore gone, Harry, Severus, and their friends must find and destroy all of Voldemort's horcruxes to stop his reign of terror before things get any worse.
If only things were that simple. They don't know where they all are or even what they should be looking for. And with surprise developments left and right, they're having a hard time making any progress.
To make matters worse, there is one horcrux that Severus cares about far more than the rest. He has to find a way to get it out of his son without killing him or letting him know. Because Severus knows that if Harry figures out exactly how he is connected to the Dark Lord, there is nothing his son won't do to kill him, including sacrificing himself. Severus will not allow it.
If only he knew how to stop it from happening.
Harry and Severus don't yet know the toll this war will take on their little family, but they are determined to do whatever it takes to stop it and come out on the other side--together.

Summary
Harry Potter was no stranger to mistakes. He'd certainly been called one often enough. He'd made more than a few himself. It was only a matter of time before something blew up in his face.
Severus Snape was no stranger to secrets. He'd kept thousands of them over the years. He treated them like currency. It was only a matter of time before one of them caught up with him.
So, when Harry Potter's explosive mistake suddenly reveals a secret that Severus Snape has been keeping for seventeen years, they find themselves swept up in the unexpected consequences. With everything on the line, they will have to find a way to look beyond petty grudges and see each other for who they truly are, before it's too late.
Emotions run high and tempers run hot as Harry discovers that maybe what everyone has always said is actually true after all.
He really is just like his father.
Even if his father isn't who he was expecting.

How Harry Potter’s Lack Of Prescription Glasses Gave Him A Father by fae_vamp

Summary
“Ah, but the second step could have easily been completed without Weasley’s poor attempt at gathering potions ingredients,” Snape said with a raised eyebrow, “though I suppose our precious golden boy can’t pay attention to such feeble things as instructions.”
The irritation simmering in Harry flared up. “Apologies, sir,” Harry shot back, voice dripping with disdain, “For having glasses that aren’t the prescription.”
Snape towered over him. “Do not take that tone with me boy.” He growled. It might have been Harry’s reminiscing of the verbal attack Uncle Vernon had given nine year old Harry for his bad eyesight, or just Snape’s general disposition, but Harry flinched at the term of address.
Hard.
Noticeably.

Summary
On the first day of summer after 5th year, Harry is sure that he will have the longest, worst summer of his life. Still grieving Sirius and with thoughts of the prophecy, his only thought is to make it to Hogwarts in the fall.
His plans are ruined when a Death Eater attack leaves the Dursleys dead, the blood wards destroyed, and Severus Snape's cover as spy blown. Now, both are wanted by the Dark Lord and in danger. For their own safety, Dumbledore sends the two to a safe house, far to the north -- a cottage by the sea. There, Harry and Severus learn far more about each other than they ever dreamed.
(Post OoTP, but alternate HBP. Pure Severitus angst. No Snarry romance, but maybe a little Hinny. Not beta read or Britt picked.)

Summary
Severus is still choking on the air being repelled from his lungs when the first attempt slams against his skull. This attempt isn't like theirs. It isn't the stinging, burrowing, bamboo-shoots-under-the-nail like crawling of his Lord's magic. Not Voldemort's slow and torturous magic, polluting his mind with burning pains as he digs deeper inside, unrelenting. Nor is it the powerful, crushing, passionate rush of Dumbledore flooding him. His mentor and warden's grand magic, trying to shatter his shields until they were impenetrable. No, this attempt comes at him like a dart throw. It sails at him like a whisp through the air, hitting his shields with the force of a feathered pin-point. Leaving only a small hole in the surface of his mental fortitude. The magic is insistent, but all too gentle compared to what he's known.
(Severus Snape whump at the ministry. Written because I was always confused why the Order didn't jump Snape sooner. Please excuse my use of Magical Macguffins :/ )

Summary
Harry was angry.
Sometimes he thought that’s all he was: a ball of fiery rage, bottled so tightly that it exploded in regular intervals. Every other emotion glossed over. Anger was all he knew.
No, that wasn’t right. He also knew fear. Visceral, suffocating fear.
Or: Severus Snape finds out about the Dursley's
Classic Severus Snape becomes Harry Potter's parental figure fic. Mind the tags!!! I will continue to update them as I update the story.
