One common theme could be power dynamics. Given Snape's position as a teacher and Harry's as a student, some fanfictions play with this power imbalance in a kinky way. Another theme might be redemption, where Snape's actions in the original series are re - examined in the context of a more intense relationship with Harry.

One good option for young readers is 'Holes'. Stanley's relationship with his father - like figure, Mr. Sir, has its own dynamics. And the backstory of Stanley's family also involves father - son elements. 'James and the Giant Peach' is also nice. James loses his parents, but the father - like figures of the bugs he meets on his adventure play important roles. 'The Secret Garden' is another. Colin's relationship with his father is complex, and the discovery of the garden is also related to his growth which is influenced by the idea of his absent father.

Another option is to check fan communities dedicated to the source material where these characters might be from. There, fans might be able to recommend family - friendly fanfiction.

The 'man lost at sea prays to god story' might be about a sailor who gets separated from his ship during a storm. He finds himself all alone in the middle of the ocean.

Well, for example, Bella Swan. She moved to Forks from Phoenix. Her parents were divorced and she went to live with her father. She was a bit of an outcast at her new school until she met Edward Cullen. Edward, on the other hand, was a vampire.

His acting skills contributed. He could play different types of characters well.

Sure. There's 'Shirou in the New World'. In this fanfic, Shirou is transported to a different world and has to adapt using his skills. 'The Trials of Shirou' is also a good one.

Sure. There's the story of the Winchester Mystery House in the old west. It was a large, strange mansion built by Sarah Winchester. People say she was haunted by the ghosts of those killed by Winchester rifles, and she kept building onto the house in a maze - like way to confuse the spirits. It's a really creepy place with lots of odd angles and secret passages.

There could be a scenario where the husband has access to some confidential information at work. A co - worker might blackmail him into sharing that information for their own gain.
