“You aren’t afraid of me. Why?” He asked, head cocked to the side as he openly studied Harry.

Harry’s smile was brilliant.

“Because you aren’t scary.”

    I have decided it is because I'm tired that I cried real tears while reading this. Probably, it is more likely because I run a foster care agency. Either way, I loved it. Thank you.

When the Dursley home is found to be unsuitable for Harry, Dumbledore implores his Potions Master to take the boy in, for the sake of the promise he made to Lily. Another Snape-adopts-Harry story, set Pre-Hogwarts. Harry is 8. Pairings TBD. Dursley abuse is close to canon.

    Are you going to continue this story?

Severus Snape hates Harry Potter. Nothing will ever change that. Nothing. Not even the boy’s sudden intrusion in his life. Or that cheeky smile. Or that all too innocent look. Or the sudden shift in his relationship with the Potter whelp. Not even those green eyes. No, nothing will ever change Severus’s hatred for Harry Potter – no matter how fond of him he was becoming. An eventual Snape adopts Harry story. Beginning in Harry’s first year.

    Great chapter. Can't wait for more!

    Author's Response: Thank you for reading and reviewing! It is much appreciated.

After little Harry Potter runs away from his relatives’ home for the sixth time, Albus decides something drastic must happen. Instead of sending a friendly witch from family services like he had done before, he sends Severus Snape in hopes of scaring the boy into staying put. But when a blizzard interferes with plans, Severus learns why Harry keeps running away and a change of plans ensues.

    Well, I am crying now, so a new chapter asap would be great!!

    Author's Response: Next chapter is up! Thanks for reading!

Hogwarts has enacted a house-exchange program in the interest of increasing inter-house unity and understanding. Students fourth year and up can visit other houses for two weeks if they sign up. Harry has a morbid curiosity about what it might have been like to be sorted into Slytherin.
In Response to the House Exchange Program prompt by JAWorley.

    Loved it! Will there be a sequel?

    Author's Response: No sequel, sorry.

Dumbledore has requested Snape retrieve something valuable for the Order and stop Voldemort from getting his hands on it. Unfortunately Snape is also required to take Harry as they need a Parselmouth. Along the way, both learn more about each other and Snape's ideas and assumptions are proven incorrect.

    Really liked this chapter!

[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'm not all that interested in the Dumbledore storyline. I want Harry and Sbape to get closer, with hiccups, of course. Maybe Harry gets sick and Poppy is out of the castle so Snape has to step up and Harry feels cared for? Love the story!

    Author's Response: There's a lot of Harry and Snape stuff coming, but Dumbledore plays a major role in this story and in Harry's life in this story so there is going to be a lot of Dumbledore especially in the next couple of chapters.

Harry would never have guessed what moving to a new city with the Dursleys would mean. He also never would have guessed who his new neighbor would be, or that he was being watched... followed... stalked when he went out at night looking for food and safety. Written in response to the Neighbors challenge by Mellow Moon.

    Hello! I have been reading a lot of your stuff lately, and really enjoyed this! Are you still writing it? Thank you!

    Author's Response: Definitely :)

When 11 year old Harry Potter arrives at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, there is something very familiar about the dour Potions Master sitting at the teacher's table. Where has Harry seen him before, and what does it mean?
