    Summary

    Foster kid Harry Potter has come to terms with the fact that the universe is out to get him and that his life will be filled with bad luck. But will his newest foster parents and the students at Hogwarts boarding school change his mind?

     

    I'm awful at summaries and I know the title kinda sucks. But this is my first fic so please be nice. I am but a soft bean. :)
    Also, trigger warnings will be at the beginning of each chapter so look out for that.

    Summary

    Set at the start of book five. The ever-busy Dumbledore is a little delayed in sending that howler to Petunia, and so when Vernon insists that Harry needs to leave the house as he's clearly a danger to the family, Harry is packed and down the road with no protest, causing the blood wards to break. The Dursleys instantly become a vulnerable target for Death Eaters, and Harry himself is snatched by a Death Eater, but it's Severus Snape and this is coming from a Severitus writer so you've likely already figured out where all of this is going.

    ***

    Snape didn’t become Harry’s guardian because he wanted to be. He did it because it was the best option they had at the time.

    Snape didn’t start giving Harry Occlumency lessons because he wanted to help him. He did it because it’s what the headmaster told him to do.

    Snape didn’t grow to care about Harry because he wanted to. He just did.

    Summary

    AU Where Vernon succeeded in destroying Harry’s Hogwarts letter and Harry never got to learn about his magic. Remus, after becoming a teacher at Hogwarts and hearing about this, is dead set on finding Harry himself and introducing him to the wonderful world of wizarding. This wouldn’t be so difficult, if Dumbledore would actually disclose any information to him, he wasn’t struggling to make ends meet, he had any idea on where to start, and oh yeah, if Sirius Black currently wasn’t on the loose.

    Summary

    “Then help me. What happened?” He was dangerously close to begging, and he would hate himself for it if he did, but he would hate himself more if he allowed Harry to willingly spill his own blood without any resistance from his part.

    “I’m fucking unclean. My blood is dirty, Nott.” The words were spit out like they were venom, poison on Harry’s tongue and before that statement, those words could process in his own mind, Harry was continuing, “There. Is that what you wanted me to say? There. Fine. I had a fucking dream that I was back with the Dursleys’ and they told me that me that I was a dirty-blooded, freak again and I woke up, panicked and tried to-to-”
