[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.

    Great imagination and detail about the alley and its shops makes fascinating reading.

    That was unexpected - I'd just about given up on Snape seeing the truth of Harry's situation.

    I'm enjoying this story more with each instalment. Harry, Snape and Dumbledore are so interlinked that you need to give us something from all 3 points of view to make up the whole picture, and I like each reveal. Hope Harry's plans for hiring work out.

Harry is an odd child. That makes all the difference. A rather cliche, though hopefully with some points of originality, retelling of the stories.

    Interesting. A shame that Hufflepuff wasn't more welcoming. Hope Snape acts more fairly soon.

A serious charge is brought against Harry Potter, the strange boy with no social skills. Severus realizes that though he sees no redemption for himself, there may exist some for others.

    I like how Snape is marginally warming to Harry. It would be great to see him fix all the evils in Harry's life, but I suspect that is never going to happen and is probably not possible by this stage, but hopefully Snape can give the boy some tools to improve his lot.

When Severus Snape dies during the Battle of Hogwarts, he doesn't expect to end up in his own body, 7 years before, at the exact moment he first met Harry Potter.

This time around, Severus resolves to keep his promise to Lily. He promises himself that he’ll keep Harry safe from Death Eaters, Dark Lords, and meddlesome old fools. But what will happen when Snape learns there are monsters greater than Voldemort in Harry’s life? What happens when Severus realizes that what Harry needs, more than anything, is a family?

(A Severus-gets-a-second-chance + adoption AU.)

    Oh yes = more please. Great story idea.

    Author's Response: Thanks! I just found a beta, so more is on the way! I'm glad you liked it!

Harry Potter didn’t expect a detention his first week back at Hogwarts, but then again, everyone knew Snape hated him, right?

    That was a really good story. Snape retained his slightly prickly character and didn't seem to warm to Harry unbelievably quickly, while Harry wasn't too cowed to answer back and retain some control. They fit together very well, and it was nice to get glimpses of other characters too.

    Author's Response: Thank you very much! I really tried to get Harry's personality right for his age, I didn't want him too tough, nor too timid. I'm glad it was a sucess! Snape is probably a bit nicer here than in canon, but I still wanted him in character as much as possible and get that hug at the end.:) I'm very happy you liked the fic!

One shot! Harry can't bear the pain any longer and decides to run off into the forbidden forest. Will Severus find the injured boy before it's too late?

    Pretty good for your first story - you described Harry's thoughts and blind running nicely. Not too many mistakes with the English either.

    Author's Response: Thank you very much! I am so happy and surprised that people seem to like my story or at least don't find it absolutely horrible ;)

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.

    Brilliant! And Snape's 'useless' animagus form turns out to be quite handy.

    Author's Response: I wanted it to be something he would complain about at length, but which would prove useful eventually. Thanks for your review!

    Ah, another chapter to make me smile. Its lucky no-one was rude about Snape in front of him!I wonder how he'll manage to be in 2 places at once...

    Author's Response: He won't ... therein lies the problem. But you will find out in the new chapter. :)
