Summary
“Tell me what, James?” Sirius said, frowning slightly.
“We were in love,” James said softly. “Not that we ever admitted it out loud. Fuck, it was terrifying. It was awful. It was the best thing I ever had.”

Summary
This is what happens when you choose one child in favor of another. This is what happens when your chess pieces, your precious pawns, revolt against you. This is what happens when you realize pawns are what can win or lose a game. Death has posies in his pockets and Fate is surrounded by ashes. And mortals? Mortals fall.

Summary
When Petunia Dursley refused to take Harry in she forfeited his birthright protection, so Dumbledore took the baby to the safest place he knew: Hogwarts.
The applicable staff (mostly just… not Snape) took Harry in on a rotating schedule as he grew from baby to toddler to child. They traded extra credit for babysitting among the older students, and Harry grew up knowing a few dozen different laps that were safe and warm to nap in.
This was a Harry who grew up among books, among old transient walls and learned professors. They gave Binns night duty sometimes, and let him talk young Harry to sleep. This was a Harry whose world changed, on principle, daily. The stairs moved. The walls became doors. You had to keep your eyes open–you had to pay attention. So he did.
He grew up in a school. Knowledge was power, but knowledge was also joy. This was his sanctuary. There was magic in his world from birth.
