When Harry wakes one morning, he discovers a badly injured Snape in his living room, and tries to hide him. But Petunia discovers them and reveals a secret she has kept for thirteen years--one that will change the course of Harry's life forever, and Severus's as well. AU, pre-GOF.

    That is absolutely disgusting that Dumbledore would send him back with only an anti-abuse spell to help him. I look forward to reading more of your story.

    Author's Response: I know, but he won't be there for long, once Severus is free to rescue him.  Thanks for reviewing.

    Awesome chapter. Update soon?

    Author's Response: Yes, as soon as I can! LOL!

The Sorting Hat intentionally sorted several students into the wrong House. When it decides that it is time to correct that error or risk the fate of the world, Harry Potter's life is thrown upside down. Can he find solace in his new House, or are the wounds on his soul just too deep to heal?

Reviewer: Potterworm (Signed)
    I rather enjoy this chapter. However, I must say, I do hope you have a reasonable explanation for Mrs. Wealsey's OCness, because right now, I'm having trouble understanding her reaction.

    Author's Response: Haha, it's supposed to be hard to understand. I promise to explain more next chapter! Thanks again. - August Sky

Reviewer: Potterworm (Signed)
    Awesome chapter. I like that Snape's mind immediately jumps to the Dursleys without even considering the possibility that someone else was abusing Harry.

    Author's Response: Thank you. Snape doesn't care enough about Harry at this point to know he was anywhere other than his 'home' at the Dursleys. He'd have heard from Dumbledore a thousand times how they weren't the epitomy of Muggles. Thanks again. - August Sky

Young Harry Potter is in need of some proper discipline and Professor Dumbledore thinks he has just the man to do it. Set after Philosopher’s Stone and spans the rest of Chamber of Secrets. AU

    I really liked this. Good job. ;)

Did you get to know enough about Severus' side when the end came?I had to fill it up a bit. That is my take about how it ended!

    *Smile* This is rather a sad story, but for some odd reason it made me smile. I like to think that even Snape had peace at the end. Very well-written.

"We hate him because he acknowledges that our hero is a child. Just a child, with sellotaped glasses and knobbly knees and messy hair. A child who looks out with innocence and naivety and hope for this brave new world. Severus Snape knows this will get him killed."

Reviewer: Potterworm (Signed)
    Wow. This was certainly unique. The writing style was simply marvelous, and I quite enjoyed reading it. I truly enjoyed the whimsical attitude at the end. "Once upon a time."

    Author's Response: Whimisical was exactly what I was going for, so I'm happy! I wanted to use almost a childish style, like it was for a children's story, to get across the more serious message. Thanks for the review! "Unique" *Is happy*

To cast an unforgiveable, you have to mean it...so Snape focuses on his hatred.

    Wow. This was really wonderful. It was incredibly short and yet it told the tale of a lifetime. Just incredible.

    Author's Response: Thanks!

Snape had loved Lilly. And now Lilly was gone - but not toally. A little tyke with large emerald eyes was still there. All what Snape had to do was steal him.

Warning: The Story contains corporal punishment.

    Certainly an intruiging start. You've managed to include enough details to make me curious about what will come. Good job.

Instead of the Weasleys coming to get Harry in the flying car, Snape shows up at Privet Drive to rescue him, because he did not not show up for the start of his second year at Hogwarts. Will eventually be a Snape-adopts-Harry fic.

Title: Chapter 1: The Cupboard Under the Stairs 16 Jul 2008
Reviewer: Potterworm (Signed)
    This is a very intriguing start to what I hope will be a decent sized story. I rather like that Petunia and Dudley are against the alchoholism too. I have always found it difficult to believe stories where Petunia encourages her husband to become a drunken child abuser; so this was a nice change of pace. One slight nit-pick: This story takes place after his first year, so I find it unlikely that Hermione and Ron would wonder if Harry was dead. I understand that they would be worried, but having not lived in a world filled with war yet, death would probably not be the first thing that came to mind.
    All in all, good chapter.

    Author's Response: Thanks a lot for your review. :) You do have quite a valid point, but when I wrote this chapter, I rather assumed that Ron and Hermione would still be a bit shaken about Harry's close-call encounter with Voldemort towards the end of the school year. I figured that they might think Voldemort and his followers had perhaps intercepted Harry on his way to the train station or had found a way to get to him at Privet Drive. Thanks for pointing this out though, I'm debating on taking that line out now to avoid further confusion. :)
