HP: Slytherin's Shore, Where Red Spider Lilies Bloom

Licorice Snape never asked to be reincarnated into 1985 Britain—especially not into the Harry Potter universe without any cheat abilities. Shrewd, ambitious, and ruthlessly pragmatic, she plans to stay on the sidelines and survive until the final battle. But when two people discover she shares the Snape name, neutrality becomes impossible. Entangled in a web of House rivalries, dangerous secrets, and the looming shadow of Voldemort's return, Licorice must abandon her bystander role. If she's forced into the game, she'll play to win—climbing to the top one calculated move at a time.
