When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.
Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story. Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH.

Just finished this whole thing after a week of reading. Great story! It kept me glued to the screen! I really liked that Snape was in character while growing. It's very easy for authors to forget that Snape is bitter at his core. This characterization really kept true to Snape's personality while also exploring him in different ways and growing his character. The entire story is exceptionally well written, but the Snape parts were by far the best! I know I'll be doing a reread in the future. Harry met Holly when she was two - abandoned in the park by her mother. Unable to leave her alone, he stayed behind to keep her safe. Over the years, they became as inseparable as brother and sister.
When Harry found out he was a wizard, he was happy to find that Holly was a witch too, and one day, she would enter his new world with him. Finding out he was a father to a nine-year-old girl, Severus Snape didn't hesitate to bring her home. His daughter belonged by his side, after all. Finding his daughter preferred Harry Potter over him was a travesty the Potions Master was not going to tolerate. Somehow, Severus had to make his daughter see Harry Potter as he did - worthless, useless, hopeless.

I made an account just to comment. I love this story but want to slap these characters! What the hell is wrong with Lucius, Narcissa, Regulus, Minerva, and everyone else that knew about Holly and Harry’s relationship??? What kind of foolish and immature bullshit were they playing at by not telling Severus the truth??? The first moment it was discovered Lucius should have gone to Snape and told him. If Snape was angry Lucius should have told him to grow the fuck up and care more about Holly than his own pettiness. Instead they let everything fester and get messier. Holly was hurt because she was unsure if she’d get to see Harry anytime soon. This could have been resolved weeks ago. She resisted Snape because he was mean to Harry, but this could have been addressed by Harry, Holly, and Snape all talking. Snape is going to be hurt when he realizes that Holly was just using him to get to Harry. Draco is hurt because he doesn’t understand why Holly chose Harry (a complete stranger) over him even though he apologized. Harry and Draco are going to have to work together in the war but their relationship is now filled with more resentment. Snape just put a kid’s head through a damn window because his alleged family didn’t tell him the truth. And this bullshit of ‘Snape will be mad so let’s not tell him’ makes no sense because obviously Snape finds out and he does it during school- where he can and does hurt children. Now how the fuck is Holly supposed to feel about Snape after seeing him abuse Potter? I swear- the adults in this story need their asses kicked. This is some high school drama. They better get their shit together! This year, the Snape family faces numerous challenges, including wedding planning, avoiding a terrible teacher, and the growing threat of the death eaters and their elusive leader. Additionally, they must care for a young witch who desperately craves love and attention. Do they have what it takes? Can they overcome these obstacles, especially with Albus Dumbledore keeping secrets?

Time for them to check up on Seamus. He had detention with her too. Snape is going to kill Umbridge.
Snape's going to murder Umbridge. I like it.
This is a very exciting chapter and I can't wait to see what happens. It was very difficult to read through. There are lots of word substitutions and grammar/punctuation errors that make sentences hard to follow. The substitution of Barry for both Harry and Barty made things especially difficult during the Dept. of Mystries scenes. If you reupload the chapter after some editing and corrections I'd definitely read it again. I'd love to focus on the story rather than split my attention with decoding. Poor Tracy.
Love it. I can't wait to see Umbridge get what's coming to her. When Harry gets ill, Snape makes an impulsive decision that will change both their lives. Under Snape’s guidance and tutelage, Harry will flourish and become as clever and cunning as a snake with the strength and heart of a lion. A Snape mentors Harry story. SEQUEL to Draught of Asphodel. Not slash. Set between 5th and 6th year. More notes inside.

I read through Asphodel and came right to this story! I'm so glad you started a sequel and hope you have more updates for us. I really like your characterizations and think that Snape can help Harry a lot. I think Hermione and Ron's reactions are in line with their characters and look forward to seeing how Ron's may/may not change over time. Great story! Coming of age in a declining northern borough wouldn’t be easy for any eight-year-old boy. For reasons that defied logic, being named ‘Harry Potter’ only seemed to complicate matters. Second in the Storm Surge Series. Sequel to Grease & Lightning. HP&SS friend/mentor/Severitus-style fic. No slash.

Genie has clearly got some issues. We know there's drugs but it seems like there's more as well. To cause a scene at your kids' nativity play is pretty fucking selfish. Poor Nicky and Snowdrop. I always feel so bad for Snowdrop in particular. I loved last chapter when Severus corrected her behavior. She hated it, but lessons like that demonstrate that people actually care. Gammy tries so hard with her but there's just so much going on with the girl. Tobias is an ass. It's not enough to show up- you have to actually watch Harry's performance, you selfish old fool. The smile, nod, and well done from Severus meant the world to Harry. Way to go Snape! The Padiernos family showing up made me smile. Haha- Harry saw rock concert boobs.
Harry's not sure about Tobias but he's full of empathy for the dog. Poor Harry- he's concerned about his place in his little family with Severus. This chapter was very engaging. I enjoyed reading it!
Get this boy a guitar! Teach him to rock! Find him a garage and assemble a band! Rock Star Harry Forever! Also- if he keeps hanging around Snowdrop and Nicky Severus is going to have to explain sex soon. |
