    I'm kind of excited about this new story. It seems very interesting. What IS he?? I'm confused about it.

    Author's Response: :0) I'm not going to give any hints, but you'll see relatively soon. Thanks for the review!! Glad you liked!!

Title: Chapter 1: Noel & Loki 23 Dec 2009
Reviewer: writeurlife (Signed)
    This seems interesting. I'm curious as the role that Noel and Loki will play in this. The idea of having mythology mixed in with Harry Potter is very original. Nice job :)

During their third year, Harry and Draco take their rivalry too far while in the Room of Requirement. As a result, a magical accident transports them to a make-believe world where they had grown up from toddlers and their caring father is...Severus Snape.
Desperate to get back to their own world, the boys try to get along and play the part, but to Snape nothing has changed. And what happens when they return to their rightful time and place?
Their illusionary adventure will have them realize the man that is capable of being family and cause them to form the friendship they hadn't thought possible to obtain.
Playing pretend is the one that starts it all: it's part 1 of 4 in the “Shifted Reality” series that will eventually have two boys and one man learning to be a family.

    Aw, poor snape! Why aren't they telling him what's wrong? Why are they just playing along?

    Author's Response:

    Writeurlife,

    Yeah. They're not sure if they can trust him or entirely about what's going on. That and they don't think he'll believe them, although there are ways to, in which they're not thinking about. It's mostly the fear of it getting worst if they tell him. Thanks for the review, updating very soon.

    Good chapter. Just a note: You keep writing "c'mon on", which doesn't make any sense. We either say "come on" or "c'mon". The latter is slang for the first and they mean the same thing. c'mon is a combination of "come" and "on" so if you say "c'mon on" it's like saying "come on on".

    Author's Response: Sorry, I will fix them. Thanks you for your review. LL

When the great granddaughter of Aberforth Dumbledore moves to Britain to be close to her fiancé, and is hired to teach Magical History at Hogwarts, Severus Snape and Lucy O'Conner discover that sometimes fate (or six-year-old Harry) has a way of throwing a wrench into life's best laid plans.

Reviewer: writeurlife (Signed)
    Okay, I guess that now that I've read the first 20 chapters, I should leave a review.

    First of all, this story is brilliant. It's unuasual to have a het. romance like this on potsandsnitches, but I really like the change. Little Harry is cute and Lucy is a true spitfire--not mary sue at all. I'm quite pleased.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you. I'm so glad to know you're enjoying my little story. I began it as a request from a reader of a Severitus of mine that his on hiatus. She wanted a romance for Severus. I wanted to see Harry have the childhood he was denied in canon...thus this story is the result.

    I can't tell you how much it means to me that people like Lucy. She is my first real OC and I've put in quite a lot of time and effort developing her. She is a product of her upbringing, something in which we will see in upcoming chapters.

    Harry...Well, Harry is six. It doesn't get much cuter than that.

    Thank you again. I hope you enjoy the rest of the story and I hope to hear from you again.

Harry's just a scared little kid but no one can see this behind all his bravado. Or can they?

    haha, I like this story! It would be cool if you continued it, I like street savvy Harry. Formatting got wanky towards the end, just so you know.

Locking Harry in the broom closet was the catalyst that unlocked a whole flurry of issues that young Harry and Severus must now begin to work through... together.

    When's the next update for this one coming out! I love LADTH with an unmitigated passion

    Author's Response: Yeah, sorry it's taking so long. I am HOPING to have the next bit out in a week or so, but it's been taking me forever (as I'm sure you've noticed) so I'm not sure. Thanks for your patience!!

Reviewer: writeurlife (Signed)
    Please please please please PLEASE update soon!!! I've been avidly following this since the beginning of the series, and I'm dying to know how this "oneshot" ends.

Okay, you've convinced me. Sequel to Freaks Aren't Allowed. This is a series of one shots designed to fill in some of the blanks between Harry's first year with Snape and his first year at Hogwarts. Childfic. Fluff.
