Story Notes:
This story has been bouncing around on my computer for a while. It started as a random idea that I never thought would turn into anything, and has since turned into a full-blown, multi-chapter story. I never thought I would actually post it, but I kept writing more on it, and it got so long that it just seemed silly to not post it. So I am finally posting. Enjoy!

Thanks for all of the reviews, guys! I’m so happy to hear that so many people like this! And here’s the next chapter, much faster than I anticipated! Also, just in case other people are like me and like visuals/maps, I've put a diagram-type-thing of the Dursley’s backyard, with the reach of Harry’s chain, on the chapter endnote. It’s not perfectly to scale, but I think it’s approximate. Or at least of what I envision.
3. Chapter 3: The Hospital by ravenhaired88 [Reviews - 5] (3796 words)
Yay, chapter 3 is up! Thanks for all the reviews guys! I have one more chapter mostly written, but once chapter 4 is posted, we'll move to a more normal update schedule.
4. Chapter 4: The Therapist by ravenhaired88 [Reviews - 11] (3188 words)
Next chapter up! Chapter 5 will take quite a bit longer to finish than these past ones have, though.
Thank you for all of the wonderful reviews so far!
