Tea and Sympathy, by Jocemum
hosted by the OWL, a part of The-Leaky-Cauldron.org
This is a very well written tale that begins right after Dumbledore's murder and is canon-compliant to that point. Hermione is contacted by Snape and convinced he is still actively working for the Order of the Phoenix. Hogwarts is shut down, but Hermione, Ron, Harry, Neville, are Luna are all housed there with the other Professors while the search for the remaining Horcruxes continues. Hermione is secretly assisted by Snape and a bond forms between them. Draco returns to the castle and is secretly housed as well.
The author stays true to the characters while taking the story in a direction that I found deeply satisfying. As a fantastic bonus, she wrote a companion piece called Coffee and Enmity (also hosted by the OWL). This short story fills in a time gap from Harry and Snape's perspective. It is a wonderful, all too brief "Snape mentors Harry" piece that was really pleasing!
I had a great time with these 2 stories!
