The phoenix could also be a catalyst for Snape's character development in fanfiction. It might show Snape things he's been blind to, like the true nature of certain people or the importance of certain values. Their interactions could range from the phoenix simply being a silent observer in Snape's life to an active participant that changes the very essence of who Snape is as a character.
Often in fanfiction, the interactions between Severus Snape and the phoenix can be quite profound. The phoenix might offer Snape comfort when he's feeling down or conflicted. For instance, it could perch on his shoulder and its warm presence could soothe his troubled mind.
Some fanfictions might show the phoenix using its healing powers on Snape. Given that Snape has a rather difficult life, with his double - agent role and all the emotional turmoil, the phoenix's healing tears could be a crucial element. It could heal his physical wounds from battles or his emotional scars from his past traumas.
Another way the phoenix could be incorporated in fanfiction about Snape is through magical connections. Maybe Snape has a special bond with the phoenix, which allows him to communicate with it on a deeper level. This bond could be used to further the plot, like the phoenix leading Snape to discover hidden secrets or ancient magic that could change the course of the story. It could also be a way to show Snape's unique place in the wizarding world, as not many characters might have such a connection with a phoenix.
In Order of the Phoenix fanfiction, Snape's relationship with Dumbledore is crucial. Dumbledore trusts Snape, but there are always underlying tensions. Snape may feel that Dumbledore is using him too much or that he's not fully understood. His relationship with the students also varies. With Harry, it's often a source of drama. Fanfic might show Snape having more moments of understanding with Harry, or on the contrary, more intense animosity. And with other members of the Order, like McGonagall, there could be different dynamics. Maybe they start to trust Snape more or there are new conflicts.

In Order of the Phoenix fanfiction, Snape's character development can be complex. He is often portrayed as still being deeply conflicted. On one hand, he has his loyalty to Dumbledore which he must uphold while being in the Order. But on the other, his past associations with the Death Eaters still haunt him. Fanfic authors might explore how he copes with teaching at Hogwarts during this tumultuous time and his interactions with students like Harry Potter, who he has a very strained relationship with. His actions are a mix of self - preservation and a sense of duty, which fanfiction can really dig into and expand upon.
