Breaking the Brat by otis-girl
Summary: Snape is a total and complete bastard to Harry (think Snape on his worst day, times 50). Snape relentlessly insults him, gives him impossibly tough detentions, says hurtful things, bullies him day and night. He thinks he's justified in doing so. Harry deals with it, as always, sucking up the hard work and trying not to let the insults get under his skin. But it gets too intense, and Harry gets physically and mentally overwhelmed. The insults hurt Harry increasingly, and deepen his insecurities. Harry becomes a pile of nerves, exhausted, his whole life looks hopeless. He can't take it anymore and breaks. Then, preferably, Snape sees the error of his ways, feels guilty, and tries to make it all better.
Mood: angst, angst, angst, "poor me", and lots of comfort/fluff at the end.
