Welcome to the Potions and Snitches (P&S) Fanfiction archive.

It's time to renew our hosting plan. If you would like to contribute some funds, here is our P&S donation page! Thank you so much!

This is the home for stories exploring the general relationship between Severus Snape and Harry Potter. You will be able to find Mentor fics, Father and Son fics, and similar type stories in the archive. MA rated fics are not allowed on this site, nor is SS/HP slash (SS/HP romantic or sexual content). Gen means nonslash.

Chocolate frog ratings: When submitting a review, you will have the option of rating the story as well, from 1-10. A ten is a fantastic, ridiculously awesome chapter that you are going to want to reread; a five should be an average story, which translates to 2.5 frogs.

Story of the Moment
There's No Wrong Way by Graciella Bellanotte-Diadoro K+
Written for the 'Pandemonium' and 'Fear is a true prison of the heart' prompts, as well as the 'Necessary Potion,' 'Phobia,' and 'Morning Post' challenges. Snape finds it necessary to ask for Harry's help in concocting a potion, but . . . why? What is the Potions master hiding? And why does he need to borrow Hedwig? Entrant in the 2009 Prompt Fest. Prompts: 'Pandemonium' and 'Fear is a true prison of the heart.'

Stiles, to start your own fanfiction archive you have to purchase a website first. If you don't have money, then I suggest you use FFN or AO3 and just post your stories there.

shadowienne I can't find your latest e-mail. The last one I have is from January 13 and I last email replied to you February 7th. Maybe mine went to spam?

Also, for those on mobile, note that the site presents better when you switch to "Desktop View."

When I choose a category it doesn’t do the selected category which is irritating & won’t let me choose the type of parent. Also potions & snitches should have a app to read & post stories on. Help
