    another wonderful chapter! can't wait for the next one.

    Author's Response: Thanks so much! ^_^

After a series of tests to discover why Harry's magic has become erratic, a secret is revealed, one hidden for over fifteen years. But not all secrets disappear without consequence, leaving Severus to learn that potions cannot heal everything.

Reviewer: snapeswidow (Signed)
    what a wonderful chapter. poor Harry.

    every time i read a story were harry has to ask "why" someone cares or why he deserves something nice or normal for kids his age, i wanna go and A/K those damn Muggles ***holes that raised him.

    Im glad Sev is there to to show Harry that he does deserve what he want/needs and that an adult who is in charge of you can love you.

    Ps~ one more Cliffy like that and ill send a howler to your house with a tickling hex attached!LOL ;-)

    Author's Response:

    You can totally have the Dursleys to do whatever you want with. *winks* I'm sure Harry won't mind if you AK them for him, well okay maybe he might, but Severus won't. It'll take some time for Harry to believe and accept Sev's words and actions, but he's on his way. 

    Well, I'm going to be gone for a month so you wouldn't be able to send that howler, but one won't be needed anyway. The next chapter doesn't end on a cliffy at all. Thanks! 


Harry Potter goes missing less than a day after being dropped on the doorstep of the Dursley home. One person must determine who his friends and enemies are as he protects the boy under the Headmaster's watch. Unusual favors are called in, unlikely friendships develop, and the shadow of betrayal grows darker...

    in a previous chapter you had Sirius say that when he wnt to Godric's Hollow that he was the one who had o close James' eyes, but in this capter you have Severus doing it~ (Severus reached out to close James's dead eyes). just thought id point it out, if it was a mistake.

    Author's Response: Wow!  Thank you so much for pointing that out.  It was indeed a mistake.  There's so much to keep track of that I miss some things.  Thank you.  I fixed it.  I got rid of Sirius doing that, and kept it as Severus.  Thank you for your review!  ~ RK

Harry Potter's in an accident, and guess who has to look after him?

    ~shannon

    Author's Response: YAY!! Glad you enjoyed yourself snapeswidow! It was lots 'o fun to write. And yeah, I'm planning out a sequel with Draco and Sirius in it *evil smile* THAT should be fun. Bwahahahaha!!! But yeah, I'm really glad that you read it! Thanks so much for reading!! :D

What's in a name? The-boy-who-lived, prophesied defeater of the Dark Lord, son of the supremely intelligent Lily Evans and talented James Potter, Golden boy of Gryffindor, part-time punching bag and house elf of the Dursleys and the bane of Severus Snape's teaching career, Harry's used to labels. Who would want Harry when they can see instead whoever they like instead? Having never been entirely sure who he is makes him a little too open to suggestion though and unfortunately for him, Umbridge wants to banish his old list of names and create a new one of her own.
Beneath the names others have branded him with will anyone be able to find Harry?

    just spent the last 6 hours reading this WONDERFUL story! if there was a way to give a higher rating than 10, I'd give it a million!

    I REALLY would love for Dumble dor to Lock Sev and Umbitch in the Room of requirement, and let them "settle" things! GOd , I hate that Woman!

    And Poor Harry. I hope that he can be brought back from te shit that that evil, vile, thing did to him. And Bravo Sev for apointing himself Harry's protector. I wouldn't EVER want to be on the recieving end of that mans temper!

    So, what now with Sev not being Voldy's "go to Guy''? i know that Voldy can't be overly thrilled about finding out he's a spy. And I know that Dumbledor won't be very pleased with the news either.

    Well, udate soon! Can't wait for what's in store for Umbitch.

    Author's Response: Wow, Thank you so much!!! I hope my fic didn’t give you a headache!! *gives you cookies, and advil* ^^- u deserve a million points for reading so long!And you’re closer to Dumbles plans than you know, but we’ll get to that later (sev has some major fluff to indulge in with regards to harry first ^^)I know, wouldn’t Sev’s temper be horrible if it was directed at you?  I’d be shaking in my boots I would... if I was wearing them... hmm... I’d be shaking in my stripey socks I would!And you never know, voldy might be thrilled for harry, that he has someone to look after him... Ha.  Ha.  Ha.  Yeah, not likely.  Ah well.Sorry for taking so long, but hopefully you continue to like this fic ^^ take care x

A worried, preoccupied Harry finds an apt distraction in an impromptu animal rescue mission. Unfortunately for him, it does not go quite the way he planned. In fact, it goes very wrong.
