severus snape and sirius black

In fanfiction, Sirius Black and Severus Snape often have complex relationships. Sometimes they are portrayed as rivals, with their past grudges from Hogwarts days still lingering. Their different loyalties, Sirius to James and the Order, and Snape to Dumbledore (while being a former Death Eater), add layers of tension.

I really like 'A Different Perspective'. In this fanfic, it's set post - war. Sirius, who survived the Battle of Hogwarts, and Severus, who has been pardoned, find themselves living in the same wizarding community. The story focuses on how they both have to deal with their past traumas and how they start to interact with each other. They start off avoiding each other but are gradually drawn together by their shared experiences and the realization that they are not so different after all.

I really like 'A Different Kind of Rivalry'. It shows a unique take on the relationship between Snape and Sirius. Instead of just focusing on their enmity from the original series, it creates a scenario where they have to work together and gradually start to understand and care for each other. It's a refreshing read.

There's 'A New Alliance' which is really interesting. In this fanfiction, a magical threat forces Snape and Sirius to work together. Their interactions are filled with tension at first, but as the story progresses, they start to respect and even care for each other in a way that's very engaging to read.

They are an interesting pairing because they are such opposites. Snape is brooding and often seen as the outcast, while Sirius is more bold and carefree. In fanfiction, it's fascinating to see how these two very different personalities could come together.

One common theme is redemption. Given their rocky pasts full of enmity, many fanfictions explore how they can redeem themselves in each other's eyes. For example, Sirius might realize that Severus wasn't all bad, and Severus might come to terms with the fact that Sirius had his own reasons for his actions. Another theme is friendship against all odds. They are two very different characters, but fanfictions often show how they can form a bond despite their differences. This can be really inspiring as it shows that even the most unlikely pairs can find common ground.

The exploration of their shared past is also a big theme. Since they were at Hogwarts together, fanfictions often go back to their school days to show how their relationship could have been different. And there's the theme of the power of love and friendship in unexpected places. Despite their initial hatred, they find a connection that goes beyond what they thought possible. It shows that love and friendship can bloom even in the most unlikely situations.

A Severus Snape and Sirius Black love story could be a very complex one. Maybe they start as rivals at Hogwarts. Snape, the brooding potions master, and Sirius, the rebellious Marauder. But as they grow older, they realize they have more in common than they thought. They could bond over their shared experiences in the wizarding world, their losses, and their desires for a better future. Eventually, their initial hatred could transform into a deep, unexpected love.

One big challenge would be their past history. They were enemies during their school days. Sirius and his friends bullied Snape, which created a deep-rooted hatred. Another challenge could be their different loyalties. Snape was initially on the side of the Death Eaters (though secretly a double - agent), and Sirius was a firm member of the Order of the Phoenix. These differences in their past associations could cause a lot of friction in their relationship.

There are fanfictions where they are forced to team up in a situation outside of Hogwarts. This could be in a post - Voldemort world where they have to deal with the remnants of the Death Eaters. In these stories, they slowly start to understand each other's motives and personalities, leading to a new - found respect and sometimes more than that. It's really interesting to see how different authors play with their characters.
