Y/N and Severus Snape spent years figuring out how to love each other. Turns out, building a life together might be the harder part. Now in their early twenties and sharing a small London flat, Y/N is one year away from becoming a fully qualified magical Healer while Severus finishes his research and searches for where he belongs next. Between demanding careers, old friends, family, jealousy, and an unexpected opportunity at Hogwarts, the future they used to imagine is suddenly becoming very real.
Severus Snape has loved his best friend for longer than he’d ever admit. Unfortunately, Y/N isn’t particularly interested in waiting for him to figure that out. Childhood friends, fellow Slytherins, and two of Hogwarts’ brightest minds, Y/N and Severus have always been inseparable. But as friendship blurs into something neither of them is willing to name, other people—and other relationships—begin getting in the way.
Seventh year. One final chance to decide who you’ll become. Marybell Rodriguez is a half-blood Slytherin with Mexican roots, a complicated relationship with darker magic, and far more talent than most of Hogwarts realizes. But in 1977, brilliance can be dangerous—and so can choosing the wrong friends. Navigate friendships, rivalries, forbidden magic, family secrets, and romance alongside Severus Snape and the Marauders. Every choice is yours, and no relationship—or destiny—is guaranteed.
Y/N has two problems: they’re hopelessly in love with their best friend, and their best friend is hopelessly in love with someone else. Y/N and Severus Snape have spent years as friends, academic rivals, and each other’s favorite person to argue with. Unfortunately, while Y/N is trying desperately not to fall any harder, Severus can’t seem to stop looking at Lily Evans. But Hogwarts has a funny way of changing things.
