Summary
Sequel to “Creatures of Worth” and “Creatures of Pride.” Harry reacts to the news that Sirius Black has escaped from Azkaban by increasing his study of violent magic, so that he can punish his traitorous godfather when he finds him. His life is also disrupted by the return of Remus Lupin, who knew his parents, as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. But Harry doesn’t intend to let either of these men stop him from protecting himself, or endanger his living situation with Madam Marchbanks.

Summary
Harry’s occlumency reveals his disturbing home life which sets off a chain reaction that cannot be undone. Snape finds himself begrudgingly caring about the bespectacled boy, Harry discovers what it's like to have adults who care, and Hermione finds herself becoming an accidental crime lord. Draco Malfoy is very much along for the ride, in all senses of the word.
A ridiculous blend of hilarity and tragedy, Another Mind Game is the multi-faceted fanfiction you didn't know you wanted but will absolutely adore.
Featuring a sassy Harry Potter, good friends, and a great deal of sarcasm.
There are also ridiculous endnotes if you make it far enough. (You can do it!)
