    Summary


    (A prelude for my Hearth AU - how Harry and Severus' dynamic builds up over the first few weeks of living together, feat. Occlumency, domesticity, food, childhood trauma, and nightmares)

     

    It wasn't too bad until the unmistakeable syllables of Crucio.

    Next thing Harry knows, there's blood dripping down his face, pooled into dark stains on his pillows, smeared on his hands, on Snape's hands, and it's clotting in his eyelashes too, crusting at the corner of his eye, although he thinks the tackiness he can feel on his cheeks might be tears too, actually.

    Bloody hell, how fucking embarrassing.

    "Glad you're awake, Potter."

     

    ~~~

     

    (Part of Harry believes, deep-down, where his truest, ugliest, most hopeful thoughts cower away, that Snape is genuine in his care, and earnest in his want for Harry to be okay. That he could trust the man with what he already has and more, and still be treated the same.

    He won't dare to give into that, not based off of less than a single summer at least, particularly not after the last four years and what little he knows of the war surely coming, but still. The thought of it lingers, in his quietest moments.)

    Summary

    The summer after Harry's fourth year has become the worst of his life. The haunting memories of Cedric's death and Voldemort's revival were terrible enough on their own, but then came the strange visions of Death Eaters, the worsening pain in his scar, and the uncontrollable emotions that don't feel like his own. After fleeing Privet Drive, he finds himself stuck in an isolated cottage with his most hated professor: Severus Snape.

    Snape mentors Harry, no slash.

    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

    Inko wakes up a few times with hazy nightmares of bruises and grinding bones. Hisashi sleeps soundly. She stares at the wall and thinks of the child she’s still keeping a secret, thinks about their future with a trapped mother and a father who wouldn’t think twice about ending a life. Her friends have disappeared. The boy who'd flirted with her is dead. Hisashi's right in the middle of it, with that smile that says he'd do it all again in a heartbeat.

    She can’t let her baby end up like that. She can’t watch an innocent mind be warped into the person that Hisashi must be. It’ll be hard, raising a kid on her own. She hasn’t even gone to a doctor yet to make sure her pregnancy’s going okay. “Either I give up everything I have,” she says, hand resting on her belly. “Or I let Hisashi ruin my baby forever.”

    (The choice is easy, in the end. She picks her child.)
