    Summary

    October 31, 1981

    Severus Snape is dropping off his latest batch of potions for the Dark Lord when he hears something he wasn't supposed to. There's no way he can get to Dumbledore in time to warn him. It's up to Severus to pick up the pieces and protect the only person that ever showed him real care.

    Lily and James aren't expecting visitors, obviously. So, imagine their shock at seeing a disheveled Snape on their doorstep insisting they have to leave, now. Voldemort is on his way, and they have barely an hour to pack their life up and run away.

    Summary

    In one world, Eileen Snape lied to the muggle man who asked her if her home was safe. She lied, and the next day Severus came home to continue his whispered lessons on magic and his attempts to avoid catching his father’s wrath.
    In this world, Eileen Snape told the truth to the muggle man standing on her doorstep asking if her home was safe.
    “No, it isn’t.” She took a breath, “I will not be leaving, but you may keep Severus away if you wish.”

    (Severus Snape is kind of adopted by the Evans)

    Summary

    Peter wasn’t going to let May pay the rent all on her own. Not when there was two of them, not when being Spider-Man made everything that much harder.

    And if that meant washing scratched up dishes and scrubbing old blood from the tile grout at Sister Margaret’s School for Wayward Girls, then so be it.

    But then one night, his skin turned blue.

    (If only his problems didn’t multiply from there.)
