Summary:

Harry grew up in a loving, if a little crazy and bachelor-esque home, with James and Sirius after Lily sacrificed her life to protect him. (James was not home when the attack took place).

Before coming to Hogwarts, Harry discovers that he had actually been adopted by James Potter and that James was actually his step-father. When he finally finds that he is Professor Severus Snape's son, he tries to win over his biological father, who, he finds, pretty much hates him. He is also scared of how Sirius and James will react to his plans, though.

Summary: While waiting in Dumbledore's office, Snape and Harry are suddenly transported deep inside a series of unending memories with no way out and with no choice but to live untouched or heard inside another time...a time in which Snape is familiar with.

Harry and Snape are transported back to the summer before Snape's 4th year. The year after the Marauders became animagus' and a year before he lost his friendship with Lily. They cannot leave the room that young Severus (of that time-line) is in but have no need for sleep, water or food. They cannot change anything because as far as the people of that time are aware, they don't even exist.

So if they have to be in the same room as 14yr old Severus and there is no way for them to leave (although obviously they don't stay there forever) then it should provide some great entertainment.

Harry can be in 5th year or an AU 4th year.

Requirements:

• Must be in-character
• Harry and Snape must have no idea at all how it happened or how to get back
• Must include at some point an appearance at Spinner's End (a good place to start the story if you like, such as the last few days of summer before starting 4th year. I doubt Snape would want to return there during the Christmas etc, but if you can find a way around it, cool)
• Must show some similarities between their lives, such as home neglect, lack of present expectations during Christmas etc. and anything else you can think of
• Must have at least one day in which they are both "crazy" such as arguing more than usual and being a bit irrational. Can be however you like, but they just need to "lose it" for a while
• Have humor, however please try to include the emotional aspect too, like Harry sympathizing with Snape while the man wishes he hadn't lost Lily etc.

Bonuses:

• Have Harry endure at least one day in which he answers questions in class etc., but of course no one can hear him. Snape may find this annoying or amusing, either...or both.
• Snape finding out that Harry recognizes the Slytherin common room (from 2nd year polyjuice potion) and his reactions
• Obviously the Marauder's pranks are to be shown at some point as well. Either Harry can be really mad about this (remembering the Mudblood memory) or thinks it's funny until he realizes that his father is a real bully and not just getting Snape back for something or whatever. Snape can be shocked by this, thinking Harry would have cheered his father and godfather on.

It is up to you everything else, also if they have their wands/can to magic even though it won't effect the world around them. Also remember that no one can hear them or see them or even feel them etc.. They can't sit in chairs unless the room is empty (apart from young Severus of course) etc. although Harry is welcome to climb a tree or something like that, but you get the drift. A good way to tell the difference between the Snapes is that the one from Harry's time is referred to as "Snape" and the younger as "Severus".

Summary:

Lily Evans happily married James Potter and had a child with him, called Harry Potter. Severus Snape loved Lily Potter dearly. However, Severus Snape was also a Death Eater and a very selfish man.

James Potter was nearly killed (by Voldemort, Death Eaters? Your choice.) Snape could have easily saved him... but he decided not to. Instead, he let him die - and went to comfort his young beautiful widow.

In a year or two, Severus and Lily legally, but secretly married and together with Harry became a family. Lily later found out what happened with James. She was extremely angry with Severus, but didn't want to endanger his position as a spy - she left him, but they never divorced as it would require too much paperwork. Half year later, Voldemort killed her - and Harry became the Boy who lived at the age of four or five.

Severus, who had grown up to love Harry in his own way, claimed him and Harry grew up with a snarky, sneering and moody but loving father. Hovewer, what would happen when Harry discovers what Severus had done?

Notes: Snape IS on the light side. He was a great bastard and he still isn't a very pleasant man, even though he changed for the better with Lily's and later Harry's influence. He hates the fact that Harry resembles James, but loves Harry nonetheless. Harry loves him back.

Have fun!

Summary:

Harry is the son of renowned Potions Master, Severus Snape. As with all father/son relationships, the two have ups and downs. One thing both men share is the same Animagus form, meaning that they are spirit kin.

Here is my challenge:

While playing in their animal forms, Severus must protect his son from a deadly threat. In the process, he ends up captured by Lucius Malfoy and dares not return to human form. Harry is now forced to discover who has kidnapped his father and where the man is being held. All the while, Severus slowly succumbs to his animal form. If Harry doesn't find him soon, there will be nothing left of his father...

Optional:
• It must take place between years 1-7 at Hogwarts
• Their animal forms
• Draco playing a major role or not. Is his father decent? Is he abusive? Does Draco befriend Severus in his Animagus form?
• Severus and Harry's Animagi names

Again, these are guidelines and not mandatory rules that need to be followed. Have fun with this challenge. There are hundreds of options and possibilities to take.

Please let me know if you decide to accept this challenge.

Summary: Only one condition: have a scenario where Snape begins his menacing trek to any location, only to feel a tug from behind. His robes aren't billowing behind him. A baby is sitting on them. Harry Potter.
