Summary: Harry is a real Slytherin through and through. I want to see him manipulating, lying, cheating, maneouvering - everything to get his way! And all that ends up impressing Severus

Suggestions:
- The challenge is quite straight forward, so you can do anything with it. But I would like it too if Severus was the one being tricked, reluctantly impressed and then the person to explain to Harry how and when to use his Slytherin traits.
- You could base Harry's Slytherin side on either the Horkrux scar or the Dursley's treatment (having no one looking out for him etc.) or both

Summary: Harry plays a musical instrument. Severus can't help but be impressed. Can be anything from a short, sweet one-shot to a long, angsty multi-chapter fic (of course, long, angsty multi-chapter fics are always preferable).

Summary: Imagine Petunia had treated Harry well instead of being an evil b****. Imagine she would've hidden the Wizarding World from Harry in an attempt to protect him from Voldemort. Harry and Dudley grew up as brothers, not one spoilt and the other neglected but equal and normal. What would happen when the Hogwarts letter arrives, delivered by none other than our loved Potions Master?

Suggestions
  • Harry has a place at Dudley's school and is excited to go there with him but when he realizes the truth about his parents' death and the Wizarding World he'd rather go to Hogwarts. But he feels like it would be a betrayal of Petunia and he doesn't want to be separated from Dudley for a whole school year.
  • Vernon could still be resentful about Harry taking Dudley's limelight, even though his family doesn't see it like that. In small gestures he would try to show Harry that he does not in fact consider him part of his family. So Harry would never see him as his father the way he sees his aunt as a mother.
  • Snape convinces the Dursleys to let Harry go to Hogwarts and promises to protect him from any harm.
  • Petunia remembers Snape and even though she does not like him, she knows he loved Lily and trusts him to take care of Harry - I would like to see a serious conversation between them, where Petunia makes Snape see Harry as his own person and not his parents' (not just James!) son alone.
  • If you make this story long I'd really like to see how Snape becomes a mentor and someone to look up to. He should be the father figure that Vernon refused to be for Harry. But as the Dursleys accept Harry, he would not adopt him.

    Bonus
  • If you don't vilify any of the Dursleys, including Vernon. It is entirely normal for some people to see a foster/adopted child as less deserving than their own flesh and blood, especially if you are only related to them through marriage. It makes Vernon ignorant, not evil.
