    Summary

    Canon compliant (minus the obvious) epic including the worst of canon Snape’s traits. Can Harry love a cruel, jaded man, one who joined the Dark Lord, bullied children, and was in love with his mum?

    And how does brave, noble, PTSD-ridden Harry Potter fare against a man so intelligent that he fooled the greatest Dark wizard of the age?

    Love does not cure Snape. He is who he is.

    Now, Harry is alone with Severus Snape—his crooked teeth, curtain of greasy hair, cold, sneering lips, insulting mouth, glittering eyes, and silky voice—trying to trust first and ask questions later.

    Summary

    “You want to be legit, there's only one way. You go to a small town in Iowa where nobody's ever heard of Harvey Specter, Jessica Pearson, or anybody else. You go to law school, hang out your shingle. Nobody will ever know. I guarantee you'd be king of the hill.” (Suits, s03e14, Heartburn)

    Mike actually takes Harvey’s ‘advice’ and goes to a small town in Iowa because the guilt of being a fraud is too much.

    Summary

    “No post on Sundays” Uncle Vernon announced happily, “No damn letters today-”
    Something came whizzing down the kitchen chimney as he spoke and caught him sharply on the back of the head. The next moment, thirty or forty letters came pelting out of the fireplace like bullets.
    “That does it!” he snapped, his beady little eyes focused solely on Harry, “It’s you that they want. And they won’t stop coming after us until you’re… gone”.
    Harry didn't like the sound of that.
    “But Vernon, we can’t! You heard what that- that despicable old man told us!”
    “Don’t worry, pet” Vernon said, his nasty grin triumphant, “I’ll leave him someplace so far away that those freaks will never trace him back to us. There’s an institute up north, for these- these hopeless cases and whatnot - St Brutus's Secure Centre for Boys. I’ll leave him there, and then we can get back to our nice, normal life”.

    Or, the one where Harry doesn't attend Hogwarts in first year but finds his way to the wizarding world anyway, and this changes everything.

    This is the canon I Do verse with the main verse and sequel(s), as well as additions which are mostly other POVs and missing scenes or backstories. These are all canon to this verse.

    AKA: Buck and Eddie get married for convenience pre-canon in El Paso and this is their love story that spawned from that with all its ups and downs.
