Summary
When Harry Potter has been kept in the confines of the property of Privet Drive, forced to do all the chores and housework for the Dursley's, he's beginning to lose his sanity. That is, until, his most hated Professor, Severus Snape, swoops in and whisks him away to his cozy cottage on Spinner's End.
Or, Snape takes Harry from the Dursley's as his new temporary guardian for the summer. And he has one hell of a year at Hogwarts.

Summary
Minerva sighs. “No matter how you disagree with other Heads of Houses’ behavior, you cannot yell at them. That is what Albus is for. If we had accused you of the things you did Flitwick? You would have rioted, Severus. It’s not our place.”
Severus pauses and considers her words. Would he have wanted that?
“I do wish that one of our colleagues, especially you, had spoken to me about my behavior. And yes,” He adds, quieter than before. “It would have been embarrassing. I would have been upset—but I could have changed sooner. Been less cruel. I would have valued, eventually, that you cared enough about the students to do something one might deem improper in order to help them.”
Shrugging, Severus looks down to the water. He misses being a teenager. No, he just... he wishes his teen years were different.
Maybe he’d know better sooner.

Summary
Children’s hair sometimes changes color as you grow. When he’s young enough for it not to be unusual, but old enough to know he’ll get in trouble for doing something ‘freakish’ again, Harry's hair goes from his father's dark locks to his mother's bright, most-likely-magical red hair.
It changes everything about who he identifies with, who he wants to grow up to be, and who he thinks he is. Instead of having James Potter as his idol, Lily turns out to be a much better influence.
So instead of seeing a scruffy, most-likely-muggleborn boy standing beside him in Madam Malkin's before their first year, Draco only has eyes for the scarlet-haired, green-eyed creature who just walked into his life. Not that Harry will ever notice, given he's trying to simply survive Hogwarts.Story Discord: https://discord.gg/8b7zt5PBHp

Summary
Last year was uneventful. Dumbledore elected to postpone the Triwizard Tournament a year. Giving the school a break after Quirrel, the Chamber, and Sirius Black.
A week after leaving Hogwarts for the summer, Harry is pulled from the Dursleys, only to be trudged into a hearing at the Ministry. Turns out they were given a tip that Harry was not being cared for.
Now Harry is back at school dealing with a new guardian, the triwizard tasks, a more-manipulative-than-ever Headmaster, and his ever growing lovelust for the Dark Arts.
