I'm so surprised by all these Harry Potter: Draco Malfoy comments. I mean, yeah, he suffers a lot in canon and he does it so prettily and all, but dude. Severus freakin' Snape, man. Shitty childhood, shitty adolescence, shitty early adulthood, shitty later adulthood, shitty death scene (in which he, of course, didn't actually die)... I mean, Remus and, to a lesser degree, Sirius, had it bad, but Severus Snape's life has basically been what Harry Potter's is supposed to be, only subtract all the parts where you're vindicated and a hero and everyone likes you. (People are mean because they think you're evil, people are mean because they think you're evil, people are mean because they think you're evil...and then it turns out you actually are. So you seek redemption, rinse and repeat, including the part where it turns out you outsourced your conscience to good guys who weren't so good after all.)

Maybe it's just that I started out in Snapedom, but yeah, Severus Snape is the Woobiest Woobie in all the land. I mean, I've read the fic you summarized (countless times), except that a great deal of the time, the "friends help him recover" is either left out or more like "friend help him survive". Wait, is he supposed to come home from the evil slaver alien wizards? He's not disqualified on the basis of not having a home, is he?
