About me:
	Cressida O. Godwin is a pathetic excuse for a Ravenclaw. She uses far too many dashes, and is nauseatingly fond of giving fictional characters headaches. She has not swallowed a dictionary. She often quotes Muggle films, and bursts into song at the drop of a hat. She treats deadlines like guidelines, and frequently forgets to send in her homework on time. Her two redeeming qualities: 1.) Her elder brother, Jason, was sorted into Slytherin. 2.) She is not a Gryffindor. Over-all opinion of the student in question: she should have been a Hufflepuff. Final comment(s): She's absolutely rubbish at potions. ~ Severus Tobias Snape, Potion Master, Hogwarts Professor of Potions, and Head of Slytherin House [Report This]

'"Mmm," Harry copied him, a small smile forming on his lips. "Mmmm!" He said again insistently, as if expecting praise.'
After being rescued from the outrageous treatment of the Dursleys, Harry Potter is handed to Severus Snape and at first nothing good can be made out of this relationship. Babies can be quite a handful and Snape is NOT a tolerant man. Baby!Harry and lots of fluff.

How We Fall by JAWorley

[Reviews - 261]

After helping Draco Malfoy escape the custody of Sirius Black, Harry endures the wrath of his Godfather. When Snape comes looking for Draco, Harry tells him that Draco has run away, and that he won’t tell him where Draco is unless Snape takes Harry with him. **Note** I'm aware that some of you don't like bad!Sirius stories. Don't worry, Sirius isn't actually in the story much, however there is redemption in the end. It's not so much that he's just bad, more that he's fallen. This story is about how people fall, and how they can make it back out in the end, getting a second chance. It is NOT a character bashing story.

Comments: Wow! I have to say that this is one of the most powerful Harry Potter stories I have read--and I have read several, believe me! This tale really resonated with me because I struggle with things too. I'm not an addict--unless you consider reading a boatload of fanfiction as an addiction--but I, like everyone else, have issues. There are some times when I can't resist the temptation to fall back into my old habits. Throughout this entire story, I kept thinking of that quote from Batman Begins and I think it fits well: "Why do we fall? So we can learn to pick ourselves up."Anyways, I just wasnted to let you know just how much this tale means to me. Keep up the great work! :)

Harry Potter is located in London in the dead of night. How exactly did he end up there, and what has he been doing? Well, any kid with half a brain knows not to talk to strangers.

Lockart wipes Harry's memory. Along the way of regaining it, he gets access to a memory his magic had suppressed. Because of it, Harry is desperate not to return to the Dursleys, but Dumbledore won't listen - so Harry has to make his own escape. Come along to the bumpy ride of Harry trying to find what he wished for most in this world. Completed (11 chapters)! Severitus-ish!

Fade by JAWorley

[Reviews - 106]

Harry has a little problem, followed by a little freak out, and compounded by a confusing conversation with the Sorting Hat, who has special things in mind for him and Professor Snape. A (sort of) Christmas story as a lot of it revolves around Harry's wish for a good Christmas. [About the selected warnings] most of those were just to be safe. The Dursley's and their abuse is hardly mentioned, the corporal punishment is for the way the other students treat Harry (as well as the violence warning), and the limited use of profanity is mild.
