Summary: Umbridge's Blood Quill is discovered, but either 1) when Dumbledore tries to stop her he is overruled, or 2) he is already gone. Rather than let Harry continue being tortured, Severus takes his place under Polyjuice.

Your choice whether Harry knows or not, what motivated Severus to do it, and whether or not Umbridge finds out. No Dumbledore bashing please.

Optional if they work it out

Summary: When it is discovered that young Harry Potter has survived the Killing Curse and Voldemort is vanquished, it is decided the best way to ensure the boy has a normal life is to let him be raised under a different identity. His scar does not become famous nor is he remembered as the Boy-Who-Lived; the world is allowed to believe he died with his parents that fateful night.

So who, then, does Harry become? Who knows the truth about his identity? What else is different in this new world? Was Voldemort defeated for good that night, or will he return as in canon? Will the truth about him come out, or will the child be allowed to continue his life in anonymity?

And just what does Severus Snape make of the boy?

Summary: Harry has always been brought up with the knowledge that he is good for nothing, useless, basically not worth the time nor effort and he is a failure in everything he tried to do (canonical child abuse).

Enters Severus Snape. Canonically despises Harry and uses the same words/phrases that the Dursleys used on Harry and this reinforces Harry's POV on his self-worth. Due to Draco's obsession to fly better than Harry, he ends up neglecting on his classwork and this reflects in his Potions. Severus then has this bright idea to use 'reverse psychology' and started praising Harry whenever Draco is in earshot, hoping to urge Draco to work harder in Potions.

Crucial: Harry knows what Severus is doing and during detention or some other opportunity, confronts Severus about it and (bonus!) tells him, "I know you don't mean it but do you truly think I have potential?"

Cues Severus having an epiphany and thus finding out the reason for Harry's lack of self worth and attempts to make Harry believe in himself. Lots and lots of angst and hurt/comfort!
