When All is Lost One is Found

Severus Snape lives his life in shadows with the goal of redemption and the specter of his demise at the forefront of his life. People he trusted always used him and gave up on him. He never thought someone would ever believe that he could be loved and redeemed. And he never thought he'd ever discover a desire to live and come to a realization that perhaps not all is lost. SS/HG
