About me:

I am obviously here for the lovely relationship that is Severus Snape and Harry Potter. I tend to gravitate toward stories where Harry is young, deaged, abused or sorted into Slytherin. I reeeeally like young Harry because I picture Daniel Radcliffe as Harry and he was just too cute for words when he was little. :]

I am a wannabe writer. Hopefully within the next month I will be able to start my first story. I have really great ideas, but terrible writer's block, and a short attention span which is only exhasperated by my three toddlers (I'm 26 ;P).

If you're looking for reccomendations visit my FF.net page and see which stories I've favorited (alongside what I favorite on this site).

Before Harry arrives at Hogwarts, the faculty have a meeting and decide that Harry will need a mentor to help him adjust, keep him out of trouble, and make protecting him easier. They decide that this person should the Head of the House into which Harry is sorted, presumably Minerva McGonagall. But things, of course, don't turn out as planned, and Harry is harder to deal with than anyone expected. Nobody asked him if he wanted a mentor, after all...

NOTE: This story has a prologue. It is not necessary to the plot of the story, but if you wish to read it, it is called(predictably enough) 'Prologue to Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'

    Very beautiful and funny story. I absolutely loved your overly-protective Severus.

    "Because you're you, and you're mine, and as dangerous as that is I want the rest of the world to know it."

    That's just so...perfect.

    Thank you for sharing your story with us.

Left with partial paralysis after being tortured by Voldemort, Severus is sent to Bell Point, a secure location on the seaside owned by the Order of the Phoenix. However, he is not the only one who will be there, for Harry, refusing to express his emotions regarding Sirius’ death, has unknowingly invoked an ancient kind of magic that will force him to deal with them. Deaged to four years old, he has to contend with a bitter and broken Snape, who, like Harry, is being forced to live in a body that does not work the way it used to. These two vastly different people have beat the odds many times over, and somehow prevailed in a world that has tried time and time again to destroy them. But the challenges they now face are nothing like they’ve ever seen before. Will they rise to the occasion, or become prisoners within themselves?

    This was an absolutely beautiful story! I enjoyed it so much.

    ""Twinkle Twinkle ... little star," a child's voice sang ponderously nearby, the words soft and almost too quiet to be heard.

    Severus knew that voice. Oh, how he knew that voice."

    I can't tell you how much this quote from your story resonates with me. Especially Severus' reaction. I can see this scene play out so easily in my head and it is so heartbreaking.

    Thank you so much for sharing you story with us! I'm going to be reading it over and over again in the future.

    Author's Response: Hi aurorpotter! I am so glad you enjoyed that particular section of Prisoners. It just make me jump for joy when people can point out what sections they feel make the story. Feedback like that is very helpful! I am so glad the quote resonates with you. I love nothing more than to hear from readers that something from a story resonates with them, because my overall goal as a writer is to forge connection. You are most welcome, and thank you very much for the review. It means an awful lot to get reviews on a story that has been finished. It shows that it is still appreciated! Cheers, Whitetail.

Harry Potter is located in London in the dead of night. How exactly did he end up there, and what has he been doing? Well, any kid with half a brain knows not to talk to strangers.

    Alright, so first off I read this in about four hours. I even woke up around 3:00 this morning to get an hour in before going back to bed I was so compelled to read it.

    I have read my share of Severus/Harry stories. I have no hesitation when I say yours is the best story I have read. It is just completely and utterly wonderful. Your Harry is the most realistic representation for how one should think, feel and act in response to an upbringing such as his. The way your Severus handles Harry's situation is perfect. The way you brought these two together was breathtaking. I am in complete awe of this story. Everything about it is fantastic. Your vocabulary is extraordinary. It was just a joy to read. Thank you so much for writing this. I do hope that you continue it to completion.

    Author's Response: Thank you so much. Sorry you lost sleep over the story, though ;) I truly appreciate your feedback, it's always amazing to hear from happy readers. I do fully intend to finish the story, but with my semester just beginning (I do not recommend taking microbiology and anatomy simultaneously) it might take longer than I'd like. Thanks again.
