I'm trying to find a Marauders'-era oneshot where Snape and Regulus Black have some sort of a relationship and Regulus invites Snape to Grimmauld Place for dinner, thinking that his parents will be OK with it. Walburga is very much not OK with Snape being there, there's a fight, Severus leaves.
I think the story has a framing device/flashforward at the end to Order meetings in the second war. The last line is definitely a quote from OotP where Ron says something along the lines of "Snape never eats in this house."
Thanks!
We've slithered around and think this may be No Place Like Home by Beth H (bethbethbeth). In case that's not the one, let's see if someone recognises your details:
Snape x Regulus
Marauders era
Regulus invites Snape to Grimmauld Place for dinner
Regulus believes his parents will be okay with the invite
Walburga is unhappy with Snape being there
After a fight, Snape leaves
Possible framing device/flash-foward at the end of the fic
Framing device is set during Order of the Phoenix meetings during the second wizarding war
The last line is a quote from OotP where Ron says something like: "Snape never eats in this house."
One shot
