Harry Potter has created the perfect Boy Who Lived persona. He's learned to hide behind the mask, but what happens when it starts to crumble? Harry is determined not to find out especially not now that he's been forced into Occlumency lessons with his least favorite professor. Will Snape be able to see through the cracks to a boy who is just barely hanging on?

    Good chapter.

Help is found in the unlikeliest of places. I hope that you enjoy this updated version of my story. Some things will be the same as the original, but there will be subtle changes. This story is Alternate Universe. Severus mentors Harry story. The characters will be a little OOC.

    Wow. Lots of drama and action!

    Author's Response: Thank you so much! :) I'm glad that you liked it. :) 

Set the summer after the Order of the Phoenix. Harry receives a letter which will change his and a certain potions professors life forever. This story features plot twists, betrayal, secrets, memory loss, more memory loss and backstabbing friends. Read to see what happens when Harry finally has the chance for a real family.

    Why wouldn’t Severus leave himself a pensieve memory of his history with Lily and Harry? Or have Poppy or someone else he trusts explain this to him. This doesn’t make sense tome except to create more angst.

[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.

    I think I’d make hot chocolate available at all meals for everyone. It’s not like they don’t serve sugary things at Hogwarts. Another interesting chapter.

    Another interesting chapter. Hope these two can put together their cunning and courage and come up with some good countermeasures.

Harry finds himself having to unravel a mystery across time when he is forced to spend the summer with his Potions Master and Snape's estranged family. Who is the boy Harry keeps meeting at unexpected moments and why is it that Snape suddenly starts to develop some slightly more human qualities as the two slowly come to understand one another?

    This story is well written, with both Snape and Harry in character. It’s amusing and a bit different.

Severus is not happy to have his summer holidays interrupted to investigate Mrs. Figg's claims that all is not well at Privet Drive. He is even less happy at what he finds. Harry is sent to live with the Weasley family. Soon it turns out that raising a traumatized child is a challenge that might be too much for the Weasley parents, and Snape is very unhappy indeed to have his holidays interrupted once again.

    Interesting. I think your take on corporal punishment is a bit over the top. If everyone who was spanked went on to hurt their friends, that would be almost everyone in my generation. Certainly I’m not defending it especially with caning which is abuse. OTOH I like how Snape is making Harry think These things.

    Author's Response: Severus is talking about his own life here. And I do think his home life might have something to do with the fact he called Lily a racist name. Please do not take everything Severus says as my own opinion - characters I like tend to not say things I consider absolutely horrible in my stories, but their opinions can differ from mine quite a lot. (I don't consider Arthur Weasley a bad person for canonically physically punishing Fred and George after they tried to get Ron to make an unbreakable vow. It obviously didn't help, but I can forgive him for feeling that he needed to punish them severely and defaulting to the punishment he was used to.)

    Another enjoyable chapter.

When Harry gets kidnapped from the World Cup, he will have to trust a mysterious voice that he doesn't recognize. Will he be able to trust the man behind the voice to save him and keep him safe until the end?

    It’s good to see Remus actually censor Sirius here. Reading fanfics is a good way to pass time in quarantine. Thanks for your story.
