"For you, always" (SS/OC) M
Hi guys,
I am currently writing a 3 part series called For you, always. Part 1 is complete and on Wattpad, Part 2 is a WIP and is also on Wattpad. My OC is an Auror who was engaged to Sirius Black and Lily’s best friend. In part 1 she returns to Hogwarts in Harry’s 3rd year to assist with the castles security in the wake of Black’s escape. Along the way she finds herself connecting with Severus in a way she never thought possible. Part 2 takes place in Harry’s 5th year after my OC returns from her travels.
TW: mental health, depression, institutionalisation
Part 1
Characters/Pairings: Severus Snape/OC
Rating/Warnings: T
Summary: Set during Prisoner of Azkaban. Lexi McNaughton, a senior Auror at the Ministry is tasked with protecting Hogwarts and its inhabitants from escaped convict, Sirius Black. This was be difficult enough, were it not for the fact she was his former fiancee and her sudden draw to a certain Potions master...

Let me know what you think 🙂
Snape and an OC is an interesting concept. We never really knew about the lives of the many other students whose lives intersected with those of Snape, Lupin, and the rest. I like that your OC has an affection for the Muggle world, especially in a place like Hogwarts, where Muggles are seen as oddities and even beneath wizards.
Since there's a lot of dialogue in what I've read so far, I'd just suggest correcting the punctuation in the dialogue tags. Also, readers love subtlety. Feel free to let the characters speak for themselves without any additional explanation in the dialogue tags. This could really help readers focus on the tension between your Auror and Professor Snape. Otherwise, 'said/asked' is fine in most cases.
Good luck with writing the next parts of this story!
