Looking for two fics: one tragic, and one about Severus as a knight
Hello lovelies!
I'm hunting down two fics, please. They're almost certainly from AO3, but it's conceivable that they're on FFN.
During the final days of the war, Severus and Hermione fall in love. It's dangerous, it's forbidden: all that good stuff. The key to it is that in the end, Severus is obliviated of his love for her, and she has to watch him die after Nagini's attack, mourning the loss of his Lily while that the object of his real desires is right there. It's not HEA, it's terribly sad, and it's beautiful.
I've been hunting this one for so long that I'll readily admit I'm getting it mixed up with the also-excellent "The Archmage's Wife" by Hermes2005 (https://archiveofourown.org/works/66549172/chapters/171651373). But it's definitely about Snape as the "Black Knight", and he's romantically involved with Hermione. It's set during medieval-esque times, and I'm afraid that's all I have for you. It's not a lot to go on, but hopefully the setting is unusual enough that it'll twig someone's memory.
Thank you very much regardless!
