The professors no longer can scare Harry with talk of lost points, detentions or Quidditch suspensions. He's been beaten down for far too long, and he finally has reached his limit. Severus mentors, eventual guardian

    I cannot remember if I read this on fanfic so I will stick with this one. It sounds to me like I would like this one better anyway. I think you have everyone pretty much in character and the Malfoy hug was priceless. I look forward to reading more and will be happy when Snape knows what is going on.

After Voldemort perishes his familiar takes it upon herself to take the cursed baby to Snape in place of the woman he tried to save.

    I have to agree with the first reviewer, this made me giggle too. :)

    Author's Response: Glad to hear that. I laughed while writing it as well

[COMPLETE] After Harry blows up Aunt Marge and catches the Knight Bus to Diagonalley, he decides to take charge of his life when he learns he’s being sent back to Four Privet Drive. Harry spends the summer turning life in Diagonalley on its head, trying not to worry about the murderer Sirius Black, and attempting to avoid Severus Snape. In the midst of this he finds himself embroiled in an intense legal battle against Albus Dumbledore to decide his future. For the first time his fate rests solely in his own hands, and depend on the decisions he finds himself being forced to make. Harry wishes he could just be a thirteen year old boy, and begins to wonder if he’ll ever have the childhood he desires the most. Some of the warnings listed just as a precaution for things mentioned or alluded to.

    I am so excited to see another chapter of this! You are a very talented writer. I will have to re-read from the first chapter because there is just so much to this story that you miss things on the first read through. I hope you will be able to update again soon.

    WOW, my birthday was yesterday and I check Potions and Snitches to find out that I have TWO new chapters! What an awesome birthday present. I love seeing how caring Harry is in this story. He was that way in the books too but it is really defined here.

    You have yet to write a story that I don't like. Unfortunately or fortunately, you have yet to write a story that I don't wait for each chapter with bated breath. This story is no different, I was thrilled to see a new chapter of this story and sorry I read it too fast! I love that you are exploring Harry's kindness, we saw glimpses of it in the books and movies. I look forward to your next chapter.

    I was so excited to see another chapter from you! I always enjoy your stories and this one is no exception. I was thrilled to read the note that it won't be a long wait for the next chapter either. I did not think it was boring at all and think it set the story line nicely. Looking forward to the next chapter.

Title: Chapter 12: Coombs For Dumbledore 03 May 2019
Reviewer: Shellie (Signed)
    I am happy to have the next chapter but ecstatic that two more are on the way! Snape is sneering but his reaction to Harry thinking he is making fun of him makes me wonder if the gears are turning in his head. Nice job lying about him dueling people he doesn't like all the time though. That was definitely stretching the truth!

Title: Chapter 13: The Potter Barrister, The Ruling, and Professor Snape’s Decision 04 May 2019
Reviewer: Shellie (Signed)
    Yay for quick updates and yahoo for lots more chapters to come.

Severus Snape never wanted to be an Animagus and the only upside to his utterly useless animagus form is that he gets to tell Albus Dumbledore "I told you so."

However, when Harry Potter foolishly ingests a confectionary offered to him by Fred Weasley, Severus has to employ any and all means at his disposal to avert a disaster.

Title: Chapter 3: Chapter 3 28 Jan 2019
Reviewer: Shellie (Signed)
    This story is just adorable. I love how Harry has regressed while being a chick. I wouldn't mind him staying feathered a few more chapters!

    The comment about the stepped on chick kinda made my nose wrinkle but I can imagine.

    Author's Response: Thank you! Harry won't stay a chick for much longer, seeing as they called on Severus for help, the problem will be solved fast and efficient. Well, not as fast and efficient as it could without Dumbledores meddling, of course ...

Severus is not happy to have his summer holidays interrupted to investigate Mrs. Figg's claims that all is not well at Privet Drive. He is even less happy at what he finds. Harry is sent to live with the Weasley family. Soon it turns out that raising a traumatized child is a challenge that might be too much for the Weasley parents, and Snape is very unhappy indeed to have his holidays interrupted once again.
