His cold, pale eyes look at me like I’m an insect. I’m of no importance to him; just another stupid little person in a stupid little world.
But he’s brilliant. He’s a genius. He knows everything about me without needing me to speak a word. He’s clever. And brave. And sometimes he can be so funny. He’s got a smile like winter sunshine, surprisingly warm and bright, and as rare as a blue moon. When he smiles, everything shines.
Yet he looks right through me. He has no idea how much I want him to notice me. If he speaks to me, I walk on air for the rest of the day. If he ever smiled at me... I wish he would smile at me, even just once. His eyes crinkle up and his whole face brightens. But I’ve only seen him smile once in all the time I’ve known him. And never, ever at me.
And why would he? I’m nothing to him. Just a slightly dim, plain, shy little girl, no more an object of affection than one of the microscopes or the coffee machine. Probably even less.
Some people call him cold. They call him a freak. They hate him because he knows everything about them, all their dirty little secrets, and they feel so exposed.
And he can be cold. But he’s my world. He’s a warrior angel, sent to earth; a bit tarnished by his journey, but still wonderful. He’s a god, a master, a philosopher, a crusader, a great man. Not necessarily safe or good. But wonderful and brilliant and shining with a light so bright it blinds and dazzles lesser mortals.
It blinded me. I’ve fallen under his spell.
There are others like me. I know. I’ve caught glances at him, a look in people’s eyes, a hint of expression. I can recognize them now. Sometimes they recognize me and we’ll share a glance for a moment and then move on, probably never to see each other again.
Yes, there are others. People he’s come across or who have come across him. Who looked at him and, in an instant, were dazzled and blinded. People who saw greatness and fell to their knees.
And he turns up his coat collar, adjusts his scarf, and swaggers off in his long black coat, completely oblivious to the trail of dazzled mortals he leaves in his wake, and continues on into the darkness.

Forgive Me Albus Part I
I KNOW THAT YOURE LYING TO ME!
Tobias. No. I swear I never-
CRACK! He slapped her hard across the face. Something more than rage alight in his eyes. He paused for a quiet, mutinous breath and then his hands were a haze of red. His slaps mingled with her screams. Mingled with Severuss own sobs and tears. Severus was blinded by his curtain of tears. Every wound his father had ever made on him seemed to reopen, to tear and burn. And as he stumbled forward to help his mother he wondered why. Why was he doing this? She had never shown him a shred of kindness.
GET OUT OF MY SIGHT!
No, Tobias

Sectum Nihilis
This happens during the first wizarding war. Severus is nineteen and a young Death Eater. He has asked Lily for a meeting. The idea came to me while musing about another novel-length fiction of mine, "The Last Secret of Dumbledore"; hence this oneshot can be read either stand alone or as a flashback in the foresaid story. I think it is canon-compatible.
Severus Snape and Lily Evans and the Harry Potter universe belong to J.K.Rowling.
Rating : PG13 or T, at most.

Snape's Epilogue
It was the purest white he had ever seen. Blinding, almost, yet he was not squinting. In fact, he was not scowling, either. Severus Snapes trademark expression had abandoned him, leaving behind one of tranquility and content. He felt as if the overwhelming gravity that used to pound on his head, furrow his brows, and slouch his shoulders was gone. He felt light, yet stable on what was now soft, dewy grass.
All around him the brilliant white was fading away to reveal a small clearing in a green and luminous forest. There was no sun. Every leaf, every blade of grass, every flower petal seemed to emit its own yellow light. Severus could f

Yeah, I know. Another Sherlock fanfic thing. I'm afraid this Sherlock series has invaded my mind and seems to have no plans on leaving any time soon.
I don't even remember how I started writing this or whose point of view it was supposed to be or what was even going through my head at the time. It's sort of Molly's point of view, but also sort of not. It's got some of me in there too. A bit of a "what would happen if I ever met Sherlock Holmes".
