Summary
Harry is a child. Why is it his job to save the school? Why is it his job to do anything other than attend classes and do homework?
It’s not his job, but it seems Dumbledore is trying to make it Harry’s job.
And well, after living with the Dursleys so long only to end up under the thumb of a brand new manipulator, can Harry really be blamed for running away?
If no one else sees value in Harry, then it’s Harry’s job to find value in himself. That is a job he can live with.
*
An eleven-year-old boy goes on a journey of self-discovery and self-love.
Let’s see what happens.(And he also maybe saves the world?)

A/N: I got some questions in comments so to clarify: the disability tag WILL NOT apply to Harry at any point in the fic. There is a character who is mute, and remains so for the duration of the fic, and the tag applies only to them. If you have questions or concerns regarding your well-being while reading, feel free to drop a comment and I'll do my best to help out! <3- Language:

Summary
“Potter…why is a horcrux of the Dark Lord sitting in your living room in muggle Surrey?” Severus Snape slowly and calmly asked as if he was holding onto his last thread of sanity while waiting for the answer.
“Well, we met back in my second year at school, became friends since I didn’t know who his future self was, he tried to kill me, I killed him, and then he floated around the aether for a couple years,” Harry sighed. It was all so very complex.
---
Everyone has had a summer from hell after what happened with the Triwizard Tournament. Literally everyone, even the part of Voldemort's soul that he thought he'd gotten rid of so very long ago. When Harry Potter's worst enemy asks for his help though...well, that pesky saving people thing just really gets in the way.

Summary
When a throw-away comment about the Boy-Who-Lived catches Lucius Malfoy by surprise, he starts to investigate about the boy’s whereabouts. Finding the Saviour of the Wizarding World treated like a common house-elf is not at all what he expected. Not one to let an opportunity pass when it presents itself, he takes Harry in as his ward before someone else can whisk him away, securing the boy’s fame and power for himself and giving him the education he is sorely lacking.
Locked into his room by the Dursleys and half starved to death, Harry hasn’t much hope that anything will change until he goes back to Hogwarts. But then Draco Malfoy’s father shows up of all people and offers him a place at Malfoy Manor.
Highly suspicious at first, he finds that the Malfoys are kinder than he expected and Harry slowly starts to let himself believe that things might be looking up for him at once. But those around him are not as trusting as he is and when Dumbledore tries to warn Harry away from the Malfoys, Harry will have to fight to keep his new-found family and keep the fragile trust he has in them.- Language:

The Wolf and the Serpent by TheWitchofStarsandSapphires
Fandom Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
10 Mar 2025
Summary
My Harry Potter Omegaverse stories revolving around Alpha Remus and Omega Severus - set mostly in Marauder and First Wizarding War Era, but do have a currently on-going fic that is set when Harry is a young child. While I do take note of events that occurred in Canon, the stories are pretty much fall into the realm of AU; Prime examples being Remus and Severus are a couple AND Severus does not become a Death Eater straight out of Hogwarts AND when he does become a Death Eater, he's already a double-agent for Dumbledore.
I am very open to any suggestions for stories, and any story ideas I do end up writing, you will be given full credit, and the story will be gifted to you.

Summary
“I’ve left my husband,” said Petunia. “He’s gone. Divorce papers in the mail.”
Remus looked up. She was still staring at the wall, her face very hard and set. “I’m very flattered, but unfortunately I’m gay.”
“I thought I could sense something off about you.”
“That might be the fact I’m a werewolf.”
“Good grief."

Summary
“It’s all right,” Severus murmured softly when Harry’s whole body started shaking and then said the opposite of what his father would have said, feeling like breaking a taboo as he whispered into Harry’s hair, “It’s all right to cry.”
Harry goes to school in Hogsmeade, pretending to be Harry Snape.
At least, that’s the plan.
No one said anything about feelings.Series

Summary
It was "Witch Weekly", of all people and organizations, the first to notice and comment on The Boy Who Lived’s absence from the ranks of first years at Hogwarts. The magazine went on to elucubrate that the young hero was studying at a foreign school, possibly Beauxbatons or Holzschuhkäse.

Summary
The boy appeared as a small, crumpled figure in the cupboard, barely illuminated by the ghostly spell. His wild, unruly black hair stood out even in the dim light, and his broken glasses perched crookedly on his nose. He was painfully thin, his clothes hanging off his frame like sacks. Severus’s sharp gaze lingered on his face—too young, too frail. The boy should have been around seven but looked no older than five.
~~~
This is a story about Severus Snape discovering compassion and affection in the most unexpected place—a small, silent boy who never spoke a word but conveyed entire stories through the depth of his actions, and the emotions in his gaze. It’s a tale of two scarred souls, each carrying their own burdens, finding solace, connection, and healing in each other’s presence.This is a story that’s almost entirely fluff with angst and just a sprinkle of plot.

Summary
Harry is suspended in the summer before fifth year. Grimmauld Place may seem an unlikely refuge, with an erratic lord and a malicious house elf and a tendency to change when night falls. But a year away from Hogwarts offers opportunities, and Harry begins to learn what it means to be a ward of the House of Black.
'Magical families deal with the dead differently. The Potters bury theirs which is more of a statement than you’d think. It says ‘our kin are safe in the ground, we trust they will not rise’ - words your grandfather once said to me by the way, not something I just made up for dramatics. Other families don’t have such confidence.' - Sirius Black

Harry on the other hand is completely overwhelmed as the foretold evilest of all evil ends up giving him better care and treatment then he every received from the Light. Still it's going to be a long road to recovery, after all there is fourteen years of conditioning and mistreatment to heal from.- Language:

Summary
In the summer of Harry´s fourth year, he decides that enough is enough. He needs his own place, so Harry moves to a little apartment in seedy, Knockturn Alley. He gets a job at the local pub and in no time, he meets people who change his life. This story follows the perspectives of the people and places Harry Potter meets.
This story is based around a challenge I did ages ago where each chapter has to be 100 words more than the last.
