A letter from home sends Harry down a path he'd never have walked on his own. A sixth year fic, this story follows Order of the Phoenix and disregards any canon events that occur after Book 5. Spoilers for the first five books. Have fun!

- ... I wish I weren't so paranoid, but why do I get the feeling that Petunia asked for Harry, and the moment she's gone Harry's dead or homeless.
After all, Vernon doesn't get magic, that's Petunia.
IGNORING THAT, SUBLIME CHAPTER!
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'

with tears in my eyes, I herald the end to a fabulous piece
PART OF 'Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'. Reposted as a one-shot because people kept reading the Prologue, presumably deciding it stank, and not going on to read the actual story. (Which I think is lots better). I still didn't want to delete it, though - it's kind of fun in its own right. :-) Any ideas on how to improve would be much appreciated.

- This is nice too - I love Snape's reaction the the Weasley twins.
A midnight escapade does not go as planned when Harry finds himself injured, locked in Snape’s storage room and worst of all, doused in Veritaserum. And this is all before Snape finds him. Entrant in the 2009 Prompt Fest. Prompts: Locked in Snape's Storage Room and Veritaserum
