Words: 1,461

Summary: Severus Snape is a lifelong bachelor — and society never lets him forget it. With no wife, no heir, and a surname that still makes drawing rooms buzz, he’s more spectacle than guest at every ball. Wherever he goes, the whispers follow.

Harry Potter is the newest darling of the season. Charming, well-mannered, and (allegedly) wealthy, he’s the talk of every matchmaking mother in town. But while their daughters smile and curtsy, Harry’s attention seems to wander… toward the last person anyone would expect.

And really — what could be more scandalous than that?

Summary: Prompt: With or Without You by U2

Harry is separated from the rest of the trio and currently lacks the magic he needs to make it to the apparition point and the medical supplies he needs to properly treat the wounds he got before he could flee. Things only get more complicated when Snape finds him.

Harry will find a way to make it work (with or without Snape) but having Snape on his side will certainly help.
