Summary
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. No slash, no romance. NOW COMPLETE!

Summary
“Boy!” Vernon’s voice snapped Harry out of his thoughts. He looked up to see his uncle glaring at him. “Are you even listening?”
“Yes, Uncle Vernon,” Harry muttered, quickly averting his eyes.
Vernon grunted, satisfied, and turned back to his meal. But Harry kept sneaking glances at Petunia, her silence speaking louder than any of Vernon’s rants ever could.
For the first time, Harry wondered if she was trapped too.
When the wards fail after an incident, Harry is cast out of the Dursleys and into the reluctant care of Professor Snape. Silent and spiraling, Harry discovers an unsettling power within him. With a growing Dark Lord, Malfoy under the same roof, and secrets simmering, healing might not be enough to save them.

Summary
After the war, Harry, Ron and Hermione return to Grimmauld Place, looking for peace. It does not last.
Something is wrong with Harry. Before they can face what is coming, Hermione turns to ancient magic to save him, and the cost is not what any of them expected.
This is a story where things do not go back to normal.
Slow burn. Long. Harmony, but it will take time to get there. Canon compliant up to the end, then it breaks away. There will be politics, war, ancient magic, psychology, emotional strain, and shifting loyalties.
Harry, Hermione, and Ron are no longer what they were. A ritual meant to bind them fractures something deeper, and what remains begins to change... colder, and far more dangerous.
They will go dark... but not without reason.
Justice turns harsher. Old magic resurfaces. Lines once unthinkable begin to blur. New players emerge with their own motives, and some spells are better left buried... except they refuse to stay buried.
This is still about them... just not the version anyone expected.
