    I loved this so much!!!!! This was so refreshing and I'm so glad you didn't have Harry run off to play hero in the end like a lot of other stories would. What a wonderful little story, thank you so much for sharing!

Rather than allowing Harry to stay at Diagon Alley after he blew up Aunt Marge, the Ministry sends Harry back to the Dursleys. Harry returns to school after a terrible summer, to find that he's not the only one with this kind of secret. A student has been killed by his family. New screening measures are put into place by the Ministry: Every student must be given a medical exam and interview to look for child abuse. With Dumbledore facing an inquiry, Snape is entrusted with the task of making sure EVERYONE receives one.

    I cried basically every chapter! Absolutely beautiful, I've read this through at least 3 times and still come back to it. Thank you so much for sharing!

Harry Potter is not a happy child. He carries a danger inside him that manifests itself soon after he arrives at Hogwarts, and it falls to his new Head of House, Severus Snape, to protect Harry, even from himself…

    Absolutely beautiful! I cried at Harry's abuse, and laughed harder than anything at Lucius and Narcissas titles, particularly being head of the peacock appreciation society... i think that one will stay with me for a looooong time! (I get such a kick out of the Malfoys, and nothing gives me more joy than a bright annoying adorable Draco and his ever-despairing father LOL)

    Thank you for writing this, I can absolutely tell it is one I'll come back to reread again!

What happens when Harry really is as naughty as Snape thinks he is? Why is Harry acting this way and what will the staff do about it? In particular, what will Harry do when he finds out all of his detentions are now being assigned solely to Professor Snape? In response to the ‘Bad Harry’ challenge.

    LOVE THIS!! Your writing never fails to amaze me! I love that Decklan turned out to be such an amazing friend in this. I love that Harry will finally be going somewhere safe too!! I think this is so realistic, that sometimes in real life those you would think would always stand by you would be the first ones to leave. I'm happy for him that he has someone to stand by him. The fact that he was still doing all his homework each night absolutely broke my heart. I always love your characterization of Harry!

    Can't wait to read the next part!

Petunia finally has an excuse to get rid of Harry, who finds himself in another abusive home. But then there is Severus living nearby, who - at first reluctantly - will try to help the boy. Will they find common ground?

    I'm genuinely shocked Ghost didn't turn out to be a death eater whisking him away to Voldy! I was bracing myself lol! I love that twist. I'm so excited to read more of this. Your handling of just how badly every single adult in his life fumbled the situation from beginning to present is so satisfying! Hopefully Snape (and Sirius? I love your Sirius and hope things look up for him) can prove to be the exception to the rule for Harry.

    Theo becoming Harry's friend is so satisfying. I love stories that insert Draco into the equation, and having Theo is a very refreshing twist!

    Author's Response: Thank you for your lovely comment <3 I'm enjoying your insight!

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?

    I can't begin to say how much I love this. I laughed and cried and put off all of my work to read this for the entire day and I'm so sad to see it end!! Thank you SO much for sharing this beautiful story!!!!

I own nothing. AU. Harry has Dissociative Identity Disorder. This may have gone well...until he was Sorted into Slytherin.

    Genuinely can't get over the thought of Tom Riddle being an alter. Gotta know how it happened! (Assuming it's REALLY him trapped in there and not a genuine alter/facet of Harry's own mond.)

    FANTASTIC story!

    Hoping you come back to this one day!

Dumbledore forces Severus to continue to teach Potter Occlumency. This prolonged exposure engenders a fragile bond between the two. This new relationship will change the lives of many, including their own.

Adoption and torture warning have been added as the story may deal with those but are not a certainty as of now.

    I'm crying!!! This has to be the first fic I've read where they become friends (rather than extremely reluctant and volatile allies) and it is everything I never knew I wanted! Lovely!!

Reviewer: dex (Signed)
    I'm absolutely in love with this story and desperately hoping we eventually see an update! Sirius dying tore me to bits in this one, but Snape taking him under his wing is so nice to read!! Poor Harry...

    Thank you for sharing!!
