About me:

I don't write a lot of Severus and Harry gen stories, because unfortunately I don't feel I do their relationship justice. If you are interested in reading some of my non-Harry and Snape gen stories, I suggest you check out my stories on fictionalley.org, fanfiction.net, mugglenet.com, or harrpotterfanfiction.com. I'm known as Potterworm on all websites. [Report This]

Field of Broken Dreams by JAWorley starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 276]

Nothing But The Truth by JAWorley starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 37]
It wasn't Severus' fault that Harry was allergic to Veritaserum, or that Harry had been sneaking around the dungeons after curfew. How was he to know the boy would react badly? Those were the excuses he gave to the Headmaster when questioned about his (questionably legal) actions, but Dumbledore wasn't buying it. Now Severus is stuck with the annoyingly truthful brat for Christmas. Wonderful. In response to the Faux Pas challenge by Alexannah. Rating for language is because of one sentence with curse words in chapter two. Rating for self harm is harm on accident on Harry's part. Short story, only three chapters.

A Freak By Any Other Name... by Lillielle starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 88]
Voldemort truly died when he attacked the Potters. However--no one was sure for years. Harry was left with the Dursleys. The abuse and neglect is stronger than in the books. When Harry makes it to Hogwarts, he is Sorted into Slytherin. Can Professor Snape see past the boy's
parentage and realize he needs help? [Warnings also include self-injury and suicidal thoughts.]
