Snape/McG Goodness

These stories in some way feature the Snape/McG relationship. They may contain slash or het or even be gen!

Please Note: If you know of any SS/McG themed story that doesn't appear on this list but that you think should be here, please reply to this comment with information such as Title, Author, Summary, Category (gen/het/slash), Pairing (if any), Rating, and anything else that readers should know about the story and I will add it to the list!

I don't always have time to read every story myself, so it's a huge help if you provide me with this info. :-)

Authors & Artists -- if you don't want your story listed here, or if I've made mistakes in the listing, please let me know. I'll remove the link or fix it as soon as I can.
