Snape Fanfic Recommendations (Severus/Lily)
Thank you for all the tips, they are wonderful! That's how long it takes to find Snily, and a good one at that. Here you go, the whole list. You are invaluable! It's so good that this is a forum!
"Ambiguous" is divine! This open ending gives hope. Tiny, but always.
There's one I've been reading called Queenside Castle. It's a Lily-centric fic that has a different school system to the one in the books; wizarding education is more localized in earlier years before upper-level students go off to Hogwarts University. It's a longer read, but I'm really enjoying it so far, and I think it deserves some more love.

How brief is the Sirius/Lily pairing?
Unknown, I think it's more hinted at, but the story is still a WIP. As long as the endgame is Snily, I'll be reading and enjoying
Hello,
Haven't seen this one on here yet, but a recent favourite of mine (complete) is "A Life Worth Dying For" by Kirin K. on FF.net.
Link: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6723844/1/A-Life-Worth-Dying-For
Summary:
"Severus was granted his greatest wish: a second chance to start over again with Lily. What he hadn't expected was Harry had had the same thought in mind. Could they ever learn to be civil around each other in their quest to protect her from Voldemort?"
My Review:
I adore this story. I am a big fan of madly-in-love, happy Snily and I really dislike James. This story certainly delivers on those fronts. It is a travel-back-in-time fic for both Severus and Harry after they die. Severus because he wants to see Lily again and Harry because he wants to see his mother again. Lily is now 20 years old and engaged to James but she is only engaged to him because she thought Sev didn't love her. So, as soon as Severus comes back to her (in this case from the afterlife) she is overjoyed. Also, the "tree incident" from fifth year is explained beautifully. Lily basically confesses she only smiled when Sev was hanging upside down because she was frustrated that he didn't confess his love for her (she had been in love with him for years as well) and thus decided to flirt with James to make Sev jealous. She did this at the worst possible time, however, which she deeply regrets. I just love the telling of the "incident" and Lily's "smile" coming out of love and teenage related frustration and not cruelty or something else (this has deeply bothered me in canon, cuz I would never do that to my bestie 🙁 )
As soon as Sev stands on Lily's doorstep (which is in chapter 2), James (and Harry in trying to convince his mother) has/have no chance. Lily is going all in for Severus now that she has him back in her life. And, I love that. I know it is kind of cruel to James considering Lily leaves him so quickly when Sev arrives, but I personally dislike James, so I have no issue with it. Aside from the fact that he died, he got everything he wanted in canon (and considering his personality, that bothers me greatly). So, now it is Sev's turn. <3
Also, the author of this story, Kirin K. has written one other story. A Snily one-shot that is taken from a previous event Lily and Sev discuss in the previously mentioned fanfic and that presumably thus can be considered canon-compliant. And it is beautiful. I recommend you read it after you've read the other one I mentioned (if you decide to that is). It is a shame this author hasn't written anymore Snily fics or fics in general. I love their writing style and their writing of Lily and Sev's relationship.
The one-shot is called: "Inside the Stone" on FF.net.
Link: https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7728029/1/Inside-the-Stone
Summary:
"SS/LE One-shot. 25 years apart. Two events. One Birthday. '...But Lily's cheeks had turned the colour of tomatoes. She buried her face onto his narrow chest and muttered, "Well… ah… ummmm… you'll only have to… ah… a-hem… kiss it."...'"
My Review:
As I already stated, it is amazing!
Btw, considering @robaku90 and I seem to have somewhat of a similar taste in Snily fanfic (hating James and Lily being in a relationship), I think you'll like this one (and its separate one shot)! 🙂

That's right, there's no point in feeling sorry for James! He was always an asshole!
