About me:

I stumbled into Harry Potter fanfic looking for something to read after years of loving the books. Even after HBP, the idea of Snape mentoring or somehow becoming Harry's father/father figure is intriguing to me. I think that his is a very interesting character with unexplored depth in canon.

As for me, well, I'm working on getting into graduate school for creative writing, as that is one of my bachelors degrees and what I enjoy the most. I do write fanfiction, and am currently writing my first try at Harry Potter, even though I'm hopelessly American and I wouldn't want British characters to sound that way. (Knowing my luck and where I'm from, I'd have Harry speaking Southern without too much effort!)

My hobby is restoring My Child dolls from the 1980s and making clothes for them. It's kind of fun to exercise artistic skills that I don't often use anymore. Otherwise, I just write. And it's whatever strikes my fancy at the moment, fanfiction in various fandoms or original fiction.

(Hints of Child Abuse) First Year, AU in Potion's class. Snape grasps what he otherwise would have missed. Looks may -not- be deceiving, but in a different way than he had even considered...

    Well done. However, I would like to know what happens next! This is very well-written, and I really would like to see Harry never having to return and the Dursleys punished...

    Author's Response: Pfft, that would be fun. I am a bit the sadistic type.

As Harry comes of age, he must discover the secret of how Voldemort cheated death and find a way to defeat this evil once and for all. Along the way, he will have to contend with Death Eaters, shadowy Ministry officials and suspicions that threaten to tear his own allies apart. And he will need to delve farther than ever before into the mysteries of the mind where victory can only be won by freeing the chained souls.

    Listen to that voice, Harry.

    *claps* A very fitting end! I've been following this duology since I stumbled across the first on The Sugar Quill. Highest marks!

When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH.

    maybe, Harry, but maybe not.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks for reviewing. Not sure what that means...hope it's good, not bad... ;)

    Good update. I can't wait to see Snape's reaction when he finds out that all the absolute crap he's been spewing for years is just that.

    Author's Response: Me too! :)

Reviewer: Bratling (Signed)
    Good start! I can't wait to see how Harry will manage to contend with caring for Severus and the Dursleys at the same time without them finding out. Hope you update again soon.

Reviewer: Bratling (Signed)
    Part of me wishes that Harry would've blurted out that the room is a damn sight better than the cupboard!

    Author's Response: Totally! Part of me wishes he would have said that too! But he wouldn't let me write those words into his mouth - He was too embarrassed already. Poor kid...

Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4 - The Art of Interrogation 11 May 2007
Reviewer: Bratling (Signed)
    LOL! Subtle Revenge... and Sev calls himself a Slytherin!

    Author's Response: :) hehe.  Totally!

Year Seven, SS through HBP compliant (Non Deathly Hallows Compliant) Severitus. Why is Harry's appearance changing? Is he being affected by destroying the Horcruxes in the same manner that Voldemort was while he was creating them? And just why is Snape acting so weird?

    But I was really, really sleepy. :D I hope you've enjoyed everything else, and I hope you enjoy what's next, and the rest.

Voldemort is dead, but the world is going to hell anyway. Harry is forced to go into hiding as Snape's son. Little does he know, it isn't just a useful disguise.
