#mentor snape

[this-is-lovin]

when your favorite fics are snape becoming a mentor/father to harry, but the majority of the fics completely ruin both SNAPE AND HARRY. give me 100k+ words of snape realizing he treated harry bad, and gave me an extra 200k+ of words of harry warming up to snape, AND THEN, the 50k+ can be them becoming the other persons family. but it has to be slow and gradual, it has to address both of their traumas, it has to show their change, their perspective.

slow burn of enemies, to still enemies, to okay, to maybe more than okay(?), to make to enemies, THEN slight friendship, friendship, and then mentor.

i need that in my life.

Best Severitis Fics Part 3

There always was something not quite right about the broom cupboard in the Entrance Hall of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Severus and Harry find themselves stuck.

Severus was just trying to examine Harry's wound from the blood quill. There was not supposed to be anything else hidden underneath his sleeves.

Harry questions his view of Snape after finding out he hadn't been trying to kill him but protect him. He goes down to the dungeons to confront Snape about it.

Desperate to escape his guilt and nightmares after the third task, Harry transforms into a hawk by accident and ends up breaking both wings and suffering partial memory loss. He is found by Snape,who helps him and discovers the truth about his professor.

When Harry accidentally drinks a brutal potion with roots in dark magic, he has to reluctantly rely on Hogwarts’ prickly Potions Master to fix the outcome.

“We can be a family again when it no longer hurts to look at you, to remember her. Maybe next year,” His father says, staring down at him with cold eyes.

After what is surely a more-than-preventable potions accident, Harry Potter winds up stuck in the hospital wing, unable to wake up. Severus just wishes he knew why Poppy won’t stop bothering him about it.

It takes three detentions for Severus Snape to realize why Harry Potter cleans cauldrons so well—and even more for him to decide what to do about it.

Blood had dripped down his hand then too. Into the white porcelain sink. Like red paint ruining the purity of white sheets. It's this endless cycle of pain and torture. Here, he feels weak, aches enough to want comfort, love. Aunt Petunia won't give it to him. Not then, not now. And he understands. Everyone who comes into contact will someday die. If it's not later, it is soon.

Harry runs into Snape while trying to find the definition of home, and finds himself drawn into Snape's summer Order task by the headmaster, looking for a location outside of London. Along the way, he and Snape learn a few new definitions themselves.

My Thoughts: Within the series, this fic really has Draco coming into his own and has some of my favorite character Draco character growth. Severus also is a shining star in the story (despite or perhaps because of his weaknesses). Even though I do love the building Drarry element, all the characters, even Ron!, has me coming back.

So You Wanna Play With Magic - part 7

⚠️ this chapter contains some mild internalized homophobia. Draco is startled by some feelings he may have for Harry and also struggles with how he was raised ⚠️

WC:4,407

Draco moved to stand but you put your hand on his wrist to still him.

You both stared up towards the stairs for a breath. Then two.

"HARRY?" You call.

A shiver of magic pulses through the house and Harry's voice calls down, "If you have a sec..."

You roll your eyes, "Come on, we have to save mr. Boy wonder." You laugh and pull Draco up to the stairs.

Going first the bond tugged as pure lust blooms in your mind. You want to turn and give Draco a look but you keep your focus on Harry.

He isn't hurt, you know that much from his tone, but you also don't want Draco feeling like he has to try and mask his natural feelings every time because you might comment on it.

You make a mental note to not mention it to him if you can help it. Hopefully then he won't feel such a way about the bond.

At the end of the hall upstairs the room Harry works in doesn't have a physical door but it is warded to the nines to prevent any of his experiments from coming out of the room. It had been helpful since one time he almost blew up the whole flat.

Harry was holding the lid on a cauldron with all his might when you entered.

"What do you need?" Wand in hand you aren't sure what Harry is working on at the moment he often doesn't tell you unless he needs help with something or if he is finished with it.

"Stasis" he grunts. He still hadn't put a shirt on and his shoulders were taunt with force. His forearms were quite thick now too. After school he kept up with Quidditch and dueling. His lanky teenage body really filled out and he was fit.

You cast and he let his arms drop from the cauldron.

"Phew!" He swiped his forearm over his forehead where sweat hard started to bead.

You only remembered Draco when the bond was sending some strong lust signals. You couldn't help but raise your eyebrow at him but he quickly turned so he was look out of the room down the hall.

"Why don't you have any doors?" He asked bewildered as he turned back to look at you and Harry.

Harry exchanged a look with you and you both busted out laughing.

The cuckoo clock on the wall let out a shrill cry, "y/n, you're late! Y/n you're late!"

"Shit" you groan eyes wide. You cast your wand and your robes fly to you. You don't even have time to take your pajamas off before you fasen the robes around yourself.

Harry grabs your collar and fixes it for you before giving you a quick kiss. You make eye contact with Draco and give him an awkward wave before rushing out to the front step to apparate to work.

Draco and Harry exchange a look before Draco just followed out after you without a word.

Harry shook his head and then reset the wards around the room before going back in to work on his spell.

[]

"Y/l/n, good youre just in time. Get your things and get to the transportation department. You have a portkey and a case file waiting in room eight." Your supervisor said without even looking up from her writing.

You pivoted and shut the door rushing down to transportation.

In the room was a narrow table as wide as the room was. A man standing behind it, he probably had to climb over or under the table to get to the other side every shift. On the table was a folder and a muggle cone, used on their roads for diverting traffic. You glanced at the clock and then at the man, "Five minutes until your portkey is active." He said in a monotone voice.

You opened the case file and skimmed the few pages it had.

Pureblood artifact.

Mid 7th century.

Dagger.

Limestone cave in Okinoerabujima, Japan.

Easy!

[]

You were gone for five days.

[]

The first day Draco showed back up with dinner. Harry let him in because he felt like he should try and get use to Malfoy too if he was going to be around more and he also forgot to eat during the day and was starving.

"Where is y/n?"

"If it's a normal day she should be home soon. If she has a case then it will depend."

Malfoy frowned, "I thought I told her she was to quit her job."

Harry laughed, "And you think she was just going to listen to you!? Ha!"

Malfoy wasn't pleased and he watched the clock for 30 minutes while Harry stuffed his face.

"Might as well eat while its at least warm."

"A gentleman waits for the lady of the house before he eats."

"Well you are going to be waiting awhile! I learned long ago if y/n isn't home by now she won't be for atleast a day ... maybe two. If it's longer than that she will owl."

Malfoy pursed his lips and waited another 15 minutes before he decided to eat his food cold. He didn't even bother casting a warming charm.

[]

The second day you found yourself having a hard time with the riddle etched into the rock wall past six other wards.

ボールなのに、しかくいものは何ですか

"What is square. And yet a ball?" You mutter. You try repeating the phrase outloud, you try stressing each word differently, you even try reflecting the phrase back to itself with a mirror.

"Why me!" You groan. You were not as up to date on your Japanese riddles as you thought.

[]

Draco came the second morning with coffees and yet you were still not home.

Harry had spent the night working on his spell and didn't go to bed until the early hours. He was not too pleased when he opened the door.

"Malfoy." Harry groaned

"Potter." Draco tried his usual sharp tone but seeing Harry standing there in just his pants, hair extra messy from sleep, and glasses half pushed up on his face made his breath stutter.

He cursed himself internally and shouldered past Harry into the flat.

Draco almost tripped over his own feet as he caught the 'about to rain' scent of Harry.

'Since when did he start smelling so good?' He thought to himself.

Harry caught his elbow on reflex and helped stead him.

"Alright. I'm not some swooning maiden. You can unhand me!" He scoffed as he brushed Harry off.

Harry gave a chortle and put his hands up.

"Whatever you say Malfoy. You're the one falling for me."

Draco's face turned beet red.

"I am... I was not... there ...  falling? What....And you .... for who.... I never !" He stuttered and hurried to the kitchen.

Harry was utterly amused. He only meant it as a play on words but Malfoy's response made him want to push this little button of Malfoy's and see what else it did.

Quirking an eyebrow he let his fingers brush and then linger against Malfoy's as he took one of the coffees he brought. He stared deep into his eyes as he took the first sip making sure some foam got on his lip before slowly reaching up and wiping it off with his thumb.

He looked at it, then at Malfoy, before sucking the extra foam off.

The sharp intake of air Malfoy took made Harry smile. He let his tongue swipe lazily across his upper then lower lip, just to make sure he got it all.

Malfoy watched with serious fascination his eyes following every movement before finally resting on Harry's mouth.

'What the fuck' his brain screamed at him. He had to explain. He wasn't gay! He was... he was just tired! He wasn't watching. He was just zoned out. That's all. That's all it was. He doesn't want to watch Harry lick foam off of anything else. He doesn't want to help him get the little bit he missed on the corner of his upper lip.

Oh Salazar. He hadn't shaved in a few days. Harry must not use any potions to keep his facial hair from growing. That or he hadn't taken it in quite some time.

Draco doesn't want to think about what that stubble would feel like against his skin.

Harry was drunk on the look Malfoy was giving him. He wanted him to look like that all the time. Completely and utterly wrecked.

Your owl chose that moment you flutter into the kitchen from the open window and drop a note over their heads.

Harry's hand snatched it out of the air, unfolding it, he read aloud,

H,

Going to be a few days.

<3 *your initials*

Draco snatched the note from his hands, glad the tension had dispersed, and read the note himself. He flipped it over and then shoved it back at Harry.

"Right then," He snapped, but then a second owl flew in. Harry watched as the second note fluttered to the ground and the owl joined yours, perched in the corner on a bird stand both waiting for a treat.

Harry went to find something to transfigure into two mice for the birds while Malfoy picked up the note and opened it.

Draco,

This mission is going to take me a couple of days. I hope to be back soon.

*your initials*

He smiled but then quickly fixed his face back to neutral before stuffing his note into his pocket. He let himself out while Harry convinced the birds to take their mice to go.

[]

Malfoy made it a habit, every morning he came with tea or coffee and every evening he came with dinner.

By the fourth day he came with dinner and wine.

The previous 'incident' as he was referring to it in the kitchen had not been mentioned nor had anything similar happen. Thankfully.

Harry hadn't bothered coming to the door. He allowed Draco access to the wards so he could come and go as he pleases. Mostly because Harry did not like how early Draco seemed to come in the morning. Harry liked to work late into the night and sleep all morning if he could.

But he was always a warm welcome at dinner.

"You know I think this arrangement is going to work in our favor!" Harry said after they had tucked into their meals.

"How so?" Malfoy said around a bite of food.

"Well with y/n gone all the time on missions we will be able to hang out and keep each other company." Harry said cheerily.

Draco snorted, "Well it won't be an issue much longer Potter. Y/n is quitting this job as soon as she gets back."

"She said that, yea?" Harry asked. He gave Draco a skeptical look.

"She won't have a choice." Draco said firmly.

"Well that's not going to go over well."

"What do you mean?"

"You think you can just demand she quits? She will hate you forever. She spent her whole life working towards this job and she is very good at it! You should ask her about it when she returns. She is also very stubborn, you tell her to do something she will just dig her heels in and refuse."

Draco curled his lip and glared at his remaining food. "Maybe, how do I make her see sense?"

"You can't you just have to let her figure it out herself. She gets hurt a lot, a lot a lot, and I've tried talking her into trying something less dangerous and she can't be swayed."

"I bet Severus could convince her." Draco muttered. He meant it for himself but Harry caught his words.

"Severus? Severus Snape? How could he get her to change her mind? What take house points away?" Harry laughed at his own joke.

Draco gave Harry a quizzical look but he held his tongue.

"How bad has it been? These other times?"

"Well... I guess you will find out eventually but she had just got out of St. Mungo's the night you came for the first time. And that was after a muggle landmine exploded and embedded shrapnel into her body."

Malfoy was visibly pale now.

"Or a few years back she had to regrow her arm. Or the time she was confined in the curse ward because she had been cursed by the object she was trying to find and was turning into a bird. She was coughing up feathers for months after that.... Hey where are you going?"

Malfoy had stopped listening and got up and stormed out of the house leaving Harry confused.

[]

Severus glared towards where the knocking sound was coming from and promptly ignored it going back to his book.

Five minutes it went on and with a snarl he tore himself from his favorite armchair and stomped to the front door.

"Professor, I need to speak with you."

Severus was so shocked to see Draco Malfoy standing on his doorstep that he let the boy in without a second thought.

Draco entered, he had the same habit of looking around at everything just like his father. Severus couldn't take that man anywhere new if they were in a hurry because he would spend as much time as possible just looking at everything.

Draco shook himself and looked expectantly at Snape. With an audible sigh he lead them down to the sitting room.

Draco took in the decor and wanted to start poking around but he needed to get to the point.

"Severus, lovely to see you." He hadn't spoke to Severus since Christmas dinner this last year.

"Quite." Severus said in his usual dull drawl. He didn't continue and they both stood in the sitting room staring at one another.

Draco yielded first by sitting down and Severus mirrored him.

He took a breath and opened his mouth to speak but then shut it again promptly. He did this two more times before Severus snapped at him, "Out with it!"

"You have to help me get y/n to quit her job!" Draco startled himself and the older man with his outburst. He didn't realise he was leaning so far forward on the edge of his seat he would have almost toppled off. He sat back in the love seat and tried to look calm.

Severus steepled his fingers and rested them on his lips. He stared at Draco for what felt like an eternity. Nobody spoke.

Finally Severus said, "why?"

"I want to keep her safe."

"You don't think she is capable of such a task?"

Draco held his tongue, he knew he could trust Snape not to go blabbing to the prophet about the arrangement he made with Potter and y/n. He doubted he would even say anything to his father. But he held back, no need to show his hand unless necessary.

"I have spoke to y/n about her work and she doesn't seem particularly keen on leaving." Snape was choosing his words very carefully.

"However, you are a Malfoy. If anyone were to suggest," He pointed his still clasped hands towards Draco with a slight lift of his eyebrows, "That she should be transferred to say another department, a Malfoy would have that kind of pull."

Draco turned Snape's words over in his mind for a few moments before pulling a shrunk down bottle out of his coat pocket. He resized it before settling it on the table, "Thank you." He said simply and left.

Severus picked up the aged bottle of cognac turning it over in his hands.

[]

Draco considered speaking with his father about this. The older Malfoy had more pull in the Ministry, even after the war. But he figured he would see where how much he could get done on his own before resorting to that.

On the fifth day he returned to the flat again first thing in the morning. He didn't want to miss a chance to be there when you arrived.

He let himself in and set the coffees down on the kitchen counter. He set yours and Potter's under a stasis charm to keep them hot.

Draco made sure to bring enough for Harry and you, should you return. Every day you didn't Harry would drink them both for you.

Today, Draco took his coffee into the living room and selected a book from the shelf. He sat in the armchair and began to read while sipping on his drink.

He had no meetings, no gatherings, every social event he usually attended was put on hold until after his engagement.

Draco got through half the book before Harry joined him downstairs.

Draco stole a few lingering glances at him as he walked by.

Harry gave Draco a half hearted wave as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes and stumbled to the kitchen.

From his seat he could watch as Harry took his time sipping the coffee carefully, stired it to help it cool and then took another tentative sip before joining Draco in the living room.

Draco couldn't help the running monolog in his mind. It was like he was right back at school again.

Stupid Potter and his stupid glasses.

His grandfather invented the sleekeasy hair potion!

Stupid Potter could spend all day inventing new spells but wouldn't brew a simple potion to tame his wild locks.

Potter did make the messy look work for him though.

And why did the man never seem to wear any clothes! The house was a little chilly.

Draco had commented on it once and Harry just said he liked it cooler.

Draco was NOT checking him out! He wasn't. Potter was literally flaunting his body in front of him!

He could see why you liked Potter. If he was being objective. He was rather fit now as an adult and had grown out of all his boyish features.

Draco couldn't help but wonder what you would think of him....

He had spent all this time worrying about if he would be attracted to you but he never gave a thought as to weather you would be attracted to him, until now.

Spending time with Potter he noticed how different they were from one another.

What if he was the issue? What if he was the cause of you both loosing your magic! He had spent more than a quarter of his life making sure he would be the perfect husband... but what if he wasn't good enough?

Harry watched Draco, he thought he was sneaky but his posture and eyes gave him away. He seemed to be arguing with himself in his head and then his eyes became unfocused and dread seeped into his sharp features.

Harry wondered if he was thinking about you. He knew he should have held back telling Malfoy about your injuries, he had only mentioned the really serious ones but that had been enough to send Malfoy right out the door.

"She'll be okay." He said softly.

Draco startled, "what?"

"Y/n, she'll be okay. She always is."

Draco scoffed, "That's a fools hope."

Harry just shrugged. He stood, stretched, and brought his empty cup to the kitchen.

"You still play Quidditch?" Harry called from the kitchen.

"Yes...." Malfoy said hesitantly. His eyes narrowed suspiciously.

"Good."

[]

Out on the pitch five people stood in a semi circle chatting as Draco and Harry approached.

Draco was fitting his arm brace on and muttering to himself, "stupid idea. No way this is going to 'be okay'"

Harry chuckled. "Relax Malfoy you already know everyone and besides it will help the rumor mill as to why y/n and I were seen together as 'just friends'." He gave Malfoy a coy wink and then jogged the rest of the way over to the group.

Ron Weasley, George Weasley, Ginny Weasley, Dean Thomas, and Angelina Weasley nee Johnson were all standing around chatting casually when Harry jogged up.

"Oi, Harry, you got a ghost chasing you." George snickered. Angelina hit him on the shoulder and hissed at him, "shush. We all promised to be on our best behavior."

Harry rolled his eyes, "thank you Angelina! At least someone is supportive."

"I don't know mate. Seems a bit off Malfoy wanting to hang out all of a sudden." Dean said eyeing Draco up as he approached.

[]

Harry had to tell his friends something, they would definitely have questions once the news of yours and Malfoy's engagement hit the front page. He went to dinner at the burrow and informed them all that you and him agreed to be friends but were splitting up.

At least that was the cover story. He had informed Ron and Hermione of the truth. Ron was of course against the whole idea.

"That foul pasty git! Can't leave well enough alone now can he!"

"Come on Ron it's not like he has a choice in this either. Y/n and I think we can work this out. And if it ends up not... well we will cross that bridge when we come to it."

"I don't know Harry, this kind of magic is illegal now." Hermione said, she was absent mindedly rubbing her pregnant stomach.

"And what would you have me do Hermione? Turn them into the Ministry? Have them punished for crimes that happened to them as infants?"

"No! I'm just saying, Harry, that if anyone finds out that could happen!"

Harry took a breath. He didn't want to argue with his friends but he also didn't want to have to defend his decisions to them either.

"That's why we are doing everything to make it look like a real relationship. Please, I need you both. Just make sure everyone who asks or questions it knows y/n and I agreed to remain friends and we both wanted to break up. I don't want to give the prophet any more fire power. They are probably going to already say all sorts of horrid things about us, again." He slumped back in the chair and covered his face with his hands.

Hermione reached out and touched his knee. Harry took her hand in his and Ron stood to rest his hand on Harry's shoulder.

"We are here for you mate! We have been through crazier stuff. This will be a piece of cake." Ron gave Hermione a look and she returned it. They would definitely be talking about this once they got home.

"I'm not on leave yet maybe I can use the ministries resources to just double check there isn't any other way."

"Fine, but you only have until Valentines day... thats when they are officially going public."

[]

Harry agreed to let Draco be seeker and he would sub as keeper for this game.

Draco glared at hum suspiciously but Harry only returned his glare with a friendly smile. Even if Draco saw it as some kind of sneaky act it really was because Harry didn't want his friends to blame Draco if he missed any goals. No need to add to the reasons why they didn't like him.

They all kicked off the ground when the other team was ready as well.

The recreational center they were at held pick up games like this every week. A person of staff kept score and threw the quaffle into play.

At the sound of the whistle everyone was off.

[]

The game ended 210/80! Everyone was cheering on the way to the locker room.

Even Draco seemed to be genuinely smiling.

"Drinks at the leaky?" Ron called. "Malfoy you in?"

Malfoy looked Ron up and down before nodding, "yea sounds good."

"Great!" George said his hand resting on Malfoy's shoulder. "Your turn to buy!" He laughed and then went to the showers.

Harry winced, "Ignore George I'll buy."

"Don't be preposterous, Potter. I think the Malfoy coffers could use a little lightening." Draco smirked as he slipped past him to change.

[]

At the Leaky Cauldron every sat around a large booth and drank heavily as they laughed and got a chance to catch up with everyone since last week.

Malfoy sat in the corner and sipped his drink slowly. After a few sideways glances Potters friends seemed to be alright with him being there. Evek if they didnxt try to include him in the conversations. It worked out since he wanted to observe more so than participate.

Hermione Granger, Seamus Finnigan, and Neville Longbottom had also joined them.

George and Angelina stayed for one drink before they had to head home to their son, Fred.

Hermione was also keen to leave soon after with Ron.

Malfoy couldn't help but notice the final pairs sitting together. Ginny and Luna were holding hands and talking excitedly with Neville. Dean and Seamus had shared a kiss when Seamus arrived and both were listening to Harry explain his latest spell fiasco.

Draco watched with keen interest. Growing up his father had drilled it into his head how the disgusting fornications of gay people were wrong. Any type of pureblood relationship that couldn't continue the bloodline was wrong. Marriage was only for having heirs. Love wasn't something you had to be worried about.

Lucius had gotten lucky with his match to Narcissa. Sure things were rocky at first but they both grew to care for one another.

Draco had never seen people so open and free with one another.

He knew what his father would think if he found out about Potter being in the picture.

'Pathetic Draco can't even keep his own wife in his bed.' And more nonesence about a 'legitimate heir". But Draco couldnt bare to make you sad. The look on your face when you realized you would have to leave Harry shattered his heart. Even more so than the thought of having to share you.

Draco was also so tired. Tired of keeping up with appearances. Tired of trying to please his father. He knew now nothing he did would ever be good enough and even now he was questioning if he would even be good enough for you. If he couldn't be good enough, if he couldn't be enough... well he's glad you at least have Harry to fill in the gaps Draco is bound to leave.

Draco figured that as long as you are happy he can learn to be happy too.

[enfinizatics]

just thinking about an insufferable brat with emotional trauma and a savior complex, and his mentally damaged git of a mentor.

[crossthread]

The only HP fic I've read with a truly charismatic Voldy is the fic where Harry, from the start of the series, absolutely loves potions, and Snape's assholeness never stopped him from getting an apprenticeship with him. That's literally the only fic where I was from the back of my mind always hoping that somehow Voldy and the light side would somehow find some common ground. I liked his character in that fic to an insane amount. And he was still and evil racist murderer. That's literally the ONLY series with a charismatic Voldermort without it being a Harry/Voldy fic. Can't remember the fic name but it's a series, and honestly it's pretty unique that I'm sure someone will know the name. It's the fic where Voldermort has a daughter with Bellatrix.

This isn't really even a fic rec post. Or even a lost fic post. Not really. This is just a post I had to put out there cause of how creeped out I was by how much I was rooting for Voldy to not die all because of how much of a charismatic mf he was. Whoever the author to that fic is, they know their shit.

[severistia]

ok but snape and luna with a some kind of mentor (???) dynamic

he would be so confused by her at first, but she's a strange kid that's being bullied and this is so painfully relatable.

and luna is just luna, she would definitely know that snape's keeping some kind of secret, but she also would never tell this to anyone. just notice that he's always sad for some reason.

✨Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall I shall arise✨

My first ever Severitus fanficbind is out! ⚡️

There is a LOT thing to say about this fiction. The fiction is start 2007 even before HBP and DH out and it completed in 2021. Also my first ever read Severitus fiction is this!

I think we all read fanfictions to replace the canon, and this NEEDED to be CANON.

The characterization is made perfectly. When i read it really feel i read Harry, Snape, Dumbledore and it makes in canon universe. So I think Kirby Lane really understands HP world so well.

And also it is thickest book i have ever bound so you might seem the mistakes that i made, but it is okay, because it is my first time! But i am happy how it turned out (except cover, God when i become good with covers?!) i made typesetting by myself and inspired from original HP books. Because i want this fic gives canon vibe. So i made cover with using ai and Mary Grandpre’s amazing works for it to gave canon vibes. 😌 so you see also the bookcloth is smaller than book 😵‍💫 i think about re-make the cover. But until then… it is finished! What you guys think? And also if you read Severitus what is your favorite fanfiction? Tell me about it *ready to taking notes*

Series: Part 1 of Magic and Bluejays

Summary:

Harry Potter reacts much differently to the Dementor attack on his cousin and it causes a cascade of changes in the lives of everyone he knows. He runs away to France to escape the English Ministry's bias and gets a solicitor (lawyer) to deal with his legal issues. Part one of a book 5 re-write that can be read stand-alone.

Featuring: Snape's POV. People making decisions for Harry without talking to him about it first. The Horcrux in his head influencing Harry's mind. Professional psychologists/mind healers doing good work. Snape using cannibus.

He would not go back to Privet Drive without bringing the law. He’d lose his temper and end up in Azkaban. Even with aurors at his back, he was likely to hex dear old Tuney into next week if he had to interact with her again. The fines would be worth it.

Summary: Salazar Slytherin bound Earth, Air, Fire and Water to himself and through him to his descendants. Now that Voldemort has been resurrected he shall assume his inheritance. But who are his elementals?

Warning: Slash (male/male), Sex Scenes, Violence, Gore, Character Deaths, Manipulative Dumbledore… You've been warned.

Pairing: Voldemort/Harry Potter

This one reminds me of another I can't remember not so much the dracken hybrids as they were all children of Voldy's followers. I believe Harry was a fire elemental that time rathe than Earth. On another note as fascinating as I find this story it is incomplete you have been warned. Also we never got around to anything to sexual more like possessive hugging and petting in dreams. Also the gore and violence levels were pretty neutral as Chapter 20 leaves off with the warning of War about to take place.

Spoiler tags as they are more to help me remember when I go hunting for things.
