- I joined this site just so I could say how much I am enjoying this story. It is such a creative AU! And now with hints of, I assume, Remus Lupin lurking? I am so interested in where this is going, but mostly I am enjoying the relationship (or lack thereof) between Snape and Harry. It seems like Snape is getting slightly closer to a desire to understand his stepson, rather than just dismiss him outright. I can't wait to see how that develops. Thanks so much for posting!
Author's Response: Thank you so much and welcome aboard! :D
Hogwarts offers an informational meeting for all the muggle-raised first years. Harry decides to go. The only trouble is that his relatives would never take him.

- I very much enjoyed this! Not an idea I had seen before. Your Harry was sweet but creative and ingenuous, and Snape's slow slide into compassion for him was lovely. Thank you!
Author's Response: Thank you and I am glad! Yes, when I saw the challenge I couldn't resist. It was great. I am happy you like my creative Harry, and that Snape works for you. I was a little scared he would seem out of character. He is a tricky one to write. :)
When an Occlumency lesson goes wrong, Snape learns more about Harry’s past than he ever wanted to—and it changes everything. But change doesn’t come easily, especially for two who have spent five years loathing each other’s very existence. Can Snape and Harry come to a mutual understanding of sorts to defeat their greatest enemy—themselves? Spring of 5th year, A/U. Completely written and posted in chapter installments.

- Always excited to see you writing-- excellent and inventive as always.
Harry's Gringotts account is empty, with two years left at Hogwarts. What is he going to do? Get a job working for his Potions Master, that's what.

- Cliffhanger! Looking forward to more, I love anything with Harry dealing with the practicalities of life, and the rich detail in this is very welcome!

- Another great chapter-- I look forward to the intrigue with the money. Also, Snape being Welsh is EVERYTHING. (Cymru pride!)
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.

Post-DH. Written for the Halloween 2017 Fic Fest prompt: "There was haunting music coming from the Quidditch pitch."
Severus is watching the Halloween proceedings: he is interrupted by Harry Potter himself.

- Really enjoyed this. The naturalism was lovely, and the cynicism of Snape's characterisation undercut with the relief of a war completed was neatly captured. Thanks so much!
Author's Response: This is so kind of you, thanks so much for your comment! I really do see Severus as quite an internal man, even at his best, so I'm glad his cynicism came across well!
Harry is arrested for burglary. The Dursleys are content to let him rot in jail. Dumbledore, not so much. And so everyone's favorite Potions Master is sent to remedy the situation.

A cleared-of-all charges Sirius Black disowns Harry from the Potter and Black lines for acting in a un-Potter like fashion. (a response to the Disowned challenge)

- Awesome and exciting start! I haven't read a plotline like this before and I'm quite intrigued. I also appreciate the care you put into establishing the storyline, instead of leaping right into the drama; I got a good feel of Harry's character and his friends at the school, and I loved the interaction with Ginny. Looking forward to next!
Author's Response: Thanks! I did worry about dragging out the beginning, but I'm never comfortable just diving in headfirst. I'm also one of those weird people who actually likes Ginny. Poor girl gets way too much hate.
