I really liked 'The Time - Traveling Potions Master'. In this fanfic, Snape travels back to his Hogwarts days as a student. It shows his growth and how he deals with the knowledge he has from the future. He tries to change things for the better, especially his relationships with other characters like Lily. It's a very emotional and well - written piece.
I really liked 'Time's Twist'. In this fanfic, the female Harry Potter character goes back and she has to navigate the Hogwarts of the past while dealing with Snape. It's full of mystery and drama as she tries to figure out how to use her knowledge of the future without changing things too much. There are some really touching moments between her and Snape as they gradually understand each other.
Snape's character could develop in a way that he becomes more confident in time - travel scenarios. He starts using his knowledge of the future to his advantage. For instance, he could use potions knowledge from the future to create new spells or remedies in the past, which boosts his standing among the Hogwarts faculty and changes how others view him. This new - found confidence might also make him more open about his feelings, especially towards Lily.
A great 'Harry Potter Snape Time Travel Fanfiction' could involve Snape traveling to the future after the Battle of Hogwarts. He gets to see the world that his actions, both good and bad, have helped shape. He might be surprised by how much he is remembered and revered in some ways, and it gives him a chance to reflect on his life and choices.
One great 'Harry and Snape time travel fanfiction' is 'Time's Echo'. In this story, Harry accidentally travels back in time and has to interact with a younger Snape. It's really interesting to see how their relationship unfolds in a different time setting.
Harry could be following a hunch. He might have found some evidence that links Snape to a solution he needs. For example, he could have discovered a note written by his father or mother that mentions Snape's ability to deal with a certain type of dark magic that is now threatening Harry. So, he takes a chance and goes to Snape, hoping against hope that Snape will be willing to help.
The exploration of Snape's character is a huge theme. Through time travel, we get to see different sides of him. We can see how his past experiences shaped him and how, if given the chance, he could have become a different person. It allows for a deeper understanding of his motives and actions in the original Harry Potter series.
The main reason is the unique relationship between Harry and Snape. When you add a female Harry and time travel, it becomes even more interesting. It allows for new interpretations of their relationship. For example, in some fanfics, the female Harry might have a different emotional connection with Snape compared to the original male Harry.
Maybe Harry goes back to the time when Snape was being bullied by James Potter and his friends. Harry, knowing the importance of Snape in the future, steps in to stop the bullying. This act of kindness from Harry could lead to Snape having a different view of the Gryffindors and also a different attitude towards Harry himself. It could also make Snape more confident and less resentful, which might in turn affect how he behaves during the wizarding war.
One great fanfiction in this genre could be 'Hollis Potter's Time - Twisted Destiny'. It has an interesting plot where Hollis, a female version of Potter, travels back in time and her interactions with Snape are both complex and engaging. The author does a wonderful job of exploring the different relationships within the wizarding world in a new light.
