'Unforgivable' ended with Severus and Hermione coming to an agreement, but still basically strangers. 'Moments of Transition' guides us through their relationship as they become friends, and perhaps when tragedy strikes they discover that what they have is even more.

Hermione, having been Imperiused during the War, commits several murders that lead to her being abandoned by Ron and Harry. During her imprisonment in Azkaban, she becomes connected to Draco and Severus whilst they all wait for trial. When all three are acquitted, they go into business together, as no one else will work with them. However, Hermione Granger is no longer the same person she was at Hogwarts, and she refuses all contact with her former friends. When Ron attempts to break into her life, a terrible disaster follows, leaving only Severus and Draco to pick up the pieces. With Harry, Ginny, and Lavender now attempting to find her, Hermione struggles to maintain the small amount of peace she has built up for herself after Azkaban, but will she find herself back there for life?

Severus Snape has one friend at Hogwarts he can count on: Lily Evans. Lily spends summers at home with her beloved sister, Petunia, and in their twelfth summer, the two girls admit the remote, secretive Severus to their private world. Sadly, the older one grows, the more difficult life becomes. What changes will come when other boys begin to come around Lily in her summer hols - and what dangers can come of the dark, violent emotions that burn within a young wizard torn apart by the complications of the ever-darkening world in which he lives?
