Rather than allowing Harry to stay at Diagon Alley after he blew up Aunt Marge, the Ministry sends Harry back to the Dursleys. Harry returns to school after a terrible summer, to find that he's not the only one with this kind of secret. A student has been killed by his family. New screening measures are put into place by the Ministry: Every student must be given a medical exam and interview to look for child abuse. With Dumbledore facing an inquiry, Snape is entrusted with the task of making sure EVERYONE receives one.

    Aw. It's soo sweet and sad at the same time. How awful that Harry actually thinks that Lily didn't want her! But I guess that's what happens when Petunia's your aunt and hates you with a passion. Please, write more. I love the way you write Harry's interactions with Severus. It's so very sweet. :)

    This chapter totally kills. I'm so dead. Especially that last sentence. I can't wait to see more Harry Snape interactions! :D

    Great great work. I can't wait for the next installment! Update soon! =)

After the war, Harry attacks Snape with an unorthodox and potentially lethal proposal. Chaos ensues.

    Uh oh. I have an idea how Snape's gonna react. But then again, maybe you;ll surprise me. It's been so long since I've been captivated by a story from the first chapter. Update soon! I can't wait to see Snape's reaction. Perhaps he'll cast a sleeping charm on Harry and just let him sleep while he works it out. that's what i'd have done. Good work. I've always been a fan on how you keep the characters in-character. Update update update!!!

In the summer before Harry's second year, it's discovered that Lily didn't die, but was instead held prisoner for several years.

    AW. So sweet! I can't believe she's alive! I bet Harry's gonna have a hard time deciding whether he's contented or annoyed. After all, who knows his mum and snape were such good friends? ;) Absolutely brilliant, though I really can do without that cliffie... Update soon! Looking forward to the next chappie!

    Author's Response:

    Aww, Moon_Willow, sorry about the cliffhanger. It demanded existance. ;-)

    Thanks so much for the review, and yes, I will be updating again within a couple of days. D


Following the death of Sirius, Harry isn't sure what to make of the sudden appearance of a six-year-old boy. The pair form a bond, unaware they're half-brothers, and Harry decides to take the boy to Hogwarts and hide him there. To aide the boy's education, Harry anonymously exchanges letters with Snape.

A story of a how a young boy becomes a father-figure to another while their own father is oblivious of their biological existence. But can sixteen-year-old Harry give what he himself has not gained? Can he go an entire year without being discovered? Just how far will Severus go to find the writer of those letters...Or are some things best left unknown?

Reviewer: Moon_Willow (Signed)
    I'm assuming the change in Harry's Patronus form had something to do with his protective streak towards Toby? and--if i can hope--Harry's somewhat subconscious realisation on how Snape turned out?

    Toby is beginning to grow on me. Lol. Wonderfully done chapter, this one. It's getting more and more interesting. Snape's actually doubting himself? About Harry? Whew. ROFL... I appreciate the originality on the expellicorpus spell!

    I personally think that Snape is beginning to suspect Harry, and the "thing" that changed him. I think he's gonna start looking for stuff and eventually harry's gonna do something out of the ordinary for him. *crossin fingers and squeezing eyes shut* Hoping that something major happens when that moment arrives!

    Wonderful. I got the message on Dobby--thanks. Different version of dobby, then. :) hope that Dobby might have some sort of confrontation from one of the professor about his continuous disappearance--that is, if someone notices.

    Thanks for the update! :)

    Author's Response: You're right about the protective streak, and mildly the subconscious reasonign with Snape is there too, although he is yet to be aware of it. Glad to hear it! Thanks, although I must say next chapter will be even more so. lol, yeah the doubt is beginning. Thanks, I quite like the spell too. Which "thing" might you be refering to? Snape is going to start paying more attention though, the out-of-the-ordinary sort of incident you're hoping for will occur, in a few different ways. But Snape won't be prepared for any of them, neither will several others, actually. Major things will begin to unravel soon, as well as a few secrets beign revealed and questions to be raised by these characters.
    This Dobby isn't entirely different, more as though he's less of a rebel now and more of how he would be as a house-elf, since Harry's nothing like the Malfoys he has no trouble with doing exactly as he is told. He's honored to do so, perhaps a little too eagerly though. As for his "disappearances", no...no one pays much attention to a single Hogwarts elf, and the only one who really sees him is Dumbledore, who is more aware that Harry realizes.
    You're welcome, will be adding another chapter soon. Thanks for your review!!

Reviewer: Moon_Willow (Signed)
    Can't wait for the next chappie! It's a nice idea, and I love Toby. "Miss Hermione" indeed! But I'm a little confused about the being-watched-by-the-Order and Snape-being-a-member thing.

    I absolutely ADORE Snape's reply. WWonderfully snarky, very Snapeish. I like :) I can hardly wait for the face-to-face confrontation between Snape and Harry. I think Harry is going to give away something. he's not really that good an actor. :)

    Can't wait for school to start! Update soon!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks for you review! :) Yeah, I'm growing rather fond of Toby myself. Ad for the confusion, Harry was worried that if the Order of the Phoeix had been watching him (for his safety), than they ight know about the little boy he had with him and since Snape was a member of the Order than he might already know more than Harry wanted him to. If Snape knows about the boy than he wouldn't have much trouble putting together e similarities in the letter and what is going on. This is only IF the whole Order has in facteen informed etc. Hope that clears it up.

    Haha, thanks, I have to edit Snape's reply about 3 times to make sure it's proper english and incharacter so I'm glad my work has paid off! :). And you're assuming that Harry won't be able to get out of that confrontation, remember that this is the worst possible scenario in which could happen to him. Unless you arefering to when he sees Snape again, because in that case you're right...not even Harry is that good of an actor.

    Glad you thinks so and thanks for the review! Will be updating again sometime over the next few days.


Title: Chapter 3: A Plan Undone 13 Mar 2011
Reviewer: Moon_Willow (Signed)
    Happy Birthday!! 21 already! Whoo!

    As awesome as always, though I'm getting a bit impatient for something--anything--to happen. I can't wait for Snape to get suspicious, though I think he already is. Is he?

    Hmm. I guess Toby can't live under the Cloak for long--i mean, he's six! The stumble was some kind of a proof? What about making Toby follow Harry to Defense one day, incorrectly assuming that he's going for Potions, and then got hurt? Eventually leading to Snape's discovery?

    And I guess you will not be telling me what Tonks and Snape were glaring about, will you? Hmm. I have a pretty vague idea, but still... If I ask nicely? Please?

    Please update soon. I really hope for the next chappie!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks!! :)

    And I understand what you mean, although this plot and situation build-up is needed, I assure you that the further along things yet to more complicated it may become. There is plenty of action and dramatic changes in the upcoming moments for the boys. It will eve reach a moment where something very big happens so rest assured that you won't have to wait too long for things to heat up more.

    And yes, Severus is suspicious but without an actual object of his suspicion, such as he knows something is going on or has happened but isn't quite sure what (or rather, who), is responsible.

    Yes, and the six-year-old is very quickly becoming further annoyed with "living" under that cloak. Your idea was certainly interesting and I may do something along those lines, however that is not how I intend to have severus find out.

    Nope, I can't tell you what Severus and Tonks were glaring about; it's one of the few things I am keeping very secretive about as it plays a very key role in the story. Although, it did not originate between those two and it's so much more than simple glaring; more will be revealed as the story goes along. Sorry, although asking nicely is always apreciated, I can't tell you much more than I already have :P

    Thanks for your wonderful review!! I shall be updating over the next few days, as per usual.


Title: Chapter 5: Theoretical Solution 18 Mar 2011
Reviewer: Moon_Willow (Signed)
    Wonderful. I still think Dobby shouldn't have to be the one to mind Toby. Dobby's a bit, well, too enthusiastic and will probably give in to Toby's wishes. A six year old and a house elf.. *shudders* I like how you portrayed severus this time. It's kinda fun! And Pince? What's going on in that bookworm's head?? Oh my, so many questions. Update soon.

    And for the chapter idea, how bout... Temporary guardian? or Plan in Motion? i suck at these, so... haha. I know i'm no help. ^^

    Author's Response: Thanks. I agree, however given the circumstances there is no other choice available to Harry and Toby at the moment other than to use Dobby. He may be an enthusiastic creature, but he obeys Harry and the teenager has made sure that Dobby understands this. Part of the childminding that house-elves have as their duties make sure they don't do as the child says unless the parent/master has okayed it first.
    Glad to hear it. Haha, plenty is going on in Pince's head, some in which will be revealed at the appropriate time.
    Thanks for the suggestions. I wanted to use "Plan in Motion" but still a bit too similar.I liked the "motion" but rhymed with the one I ended up choosing. Thanks though, and I shall be updating soon.

Title: Chapter 13: An Ultimate Change 04 Apr 2011
Reviewer: Moon_Willow (Signed)
    I'm so sorry. It's been ages since I last reviewed. These past weeks are some chaos...

    And I'm loving how the story has progressed! Apparently, Toby has gone into the background since he became sick, but I hope not for long! That scene was really really well done. Harry was quite desperate, but helpless. But, what with everything going on, he's really awfully young to be taking on such a.. responsibilty, if I may.

    It's killing me to know what Sirius told Snape, or the Order, but I have an inkling what it's about. :) But whatever it is, I appreciate that Snape is getting to realise Harry is not who he seems to be. Lol. Can't wait for more. I wonder how Harry looks like now. That brewing scene made me shake with anticipation. ARGH. Something is bound to happen soon!!! It must, or I'll die of all the contemplation.

    Though, is Irma Pince REALLY Snape's mother? God. That is... surprising. VERY surprising.

    All in all, rather well done!! Amazing job with the suspense factor, even without any killer last line~ Oh well. Update soon, okay??

    Author's Response:

    I'm glad to read another review from you now, anyway. :) They're always very inspiring and helpful. Yes, Toby has gone into th background a bit, well up until next chapter anyway. Some people complain he's in it too much than he's in it too less, lol! Yes, Harry is too young to really be doing this, but he's always risen to the occasion, although you may begin noticing how he's cracking a little and while he's doing the best he can, he's still getting moodier and finding it more annoying at times than anything. It's worth it for him, and he's dealt with worst, so Harry just tolerates it.

    Haha, yeah I bet it is, although it won't be revealed in full just yet, getting closer with each chapter though. Harry is looking a lot like a younger, happier Severus apart from the obvious Lily traits in his appearance that are becoming more obvious as well. Yes, some things are starting to change and others will take a vert dramatic turn soon.
    Yes, Irma Pince really Eileen Prince, Snape's mother! And thank-you for your review and I loved your comments. I'll be updating again soon, yeah. Thanks!
