    Summary

    The boy appeared as a small, crumpled figure in the cupboard, barely illuminated by the ghostly spell. His wild, unruly black hair stood out even in the dim light, and his broken glasses perched crookedly on his nose. He was painfully thin, his clothes hanging off his frame like sacks. Severus’s sharp gaze lingered on his face—too young, too frail. The boy should have been around seven but looked no older than five.
    ~~~
    This is a story about Severus Snape discovering compassion and affection in the most unexpected place—a small, silent boy who never spoke a word but conveyed entire stories through the depth of his actions, and the emotions in his gaze. It’s a tale of two scarred souls, each carrying their own burdens, finding solace, connection, and healing in each other’s presence.

    This is a story that’s almost entirely fluff with angst and just a sprinkle of plot.

    Summary

    “Is that your… father?” the red-headed boy asks, frowning slightly as the train pulls away from the station. Other parents are waving on the platform, bright smiles and tears on their faces; a red-headed girl with the same pointed nose as the boy in the seat across from them is chasing the train, laughing and crying all at once, until she can’t keep up anymore. In the distance, and only because he cranes to see it, Harry can just make out a still figure in black, billowing robes, his hands tucked into his pockets.

    “The closest thing I have to it,” Harry says, turning back to the boy. “My foster father. Severus.”

    “He seems…” The boy pauses, his frown deepening. “Kind of cold.”

    “There’s more than one way to be warm.” Harry smiles, not expecting this other boy to understand. “There’s more than one way to show care.”

    Summary

    "The pack meeting itself is pretty lackluster. Mostly, everyone is reconnecting, sharing some anecdotes about their time at school or what they’ve been doing at work. Even Derek manages to socialize a little. Stiles can’t help but notice how much more settled he looks. Gone are the skittish, wary glances and deep frown, forced nonchalance.
    Now he snarks with the best of them.
    Stiles almost feels bad reaching into his pocket to check his notifications."

    Summary

    “For the love of—really Draco? Artificial leather?” The horror in his father’s tone was amusing. “You have money, use it. And what’s with the color scheme? Is that—oh Merlin it is—floral print? This is worse than I thought. You need to move back home. Clearly allowing you to venture out on your own was a mistake.”

    “I’m an adult,” Draco yelled, still laying on the ground, not bothering to care enough to move. He had chosen his furniture knowing it would haunt his parents. Petty spite did wonders for the soul

    Summary

    “I don’t need an Alpha,” Draco said, fingers running through his hair—shaved at the side, the contrast of long strands melting into a fade of barely-there fuzz. “Nor would I fucking want one.”

    “I know it’s… progressive… these days to say such things,” Alberta said, lips curled into a sneer that could rival his fathers. “But a strong-willed Omega such as yourself needs an even stronger Alpha.”

    “You think Alphas are strong?” Draco asked, arms folded. “I’m sure they are but no Alpha has fucked me like an Omega can.”

    “Harry, you can’t keep getting into fights,” Sirius whispered as he applied a healing salve to Harry’s cheek.

    “But Sirius, you didn’t hear what they said about you! It was mean!”

    Sirius closed his eyes before he pulled Harry into his arms.

    “Pup, I know you feel like you have to defend me, but they don’t matter. What they are saying doesn’t mean anything.”

    “Yes it does!” Harry yelled as he pushed away from Sirius’ hold and angry tears welled up.

    “Harry—”

    “No! You don’t get it,” Harry cried. “It does matter. Because they don’t know how nice you are. You read me stories every night, you sing sometimes when I can’t fall asleep, you helped me win the pillow war against Remus, and you let me have ice cream before dinner when Moony isn’t around.”

    ---

    Or the one where Harry fights anyone who bad mouths Sirius and falls in love along the way.

    “Professor Malfoy said we’ll be learning the basics on how to cast a Patronus!”

    Join the Dark Lord, they told him. Become a true Malfoy, they said. Only, he didn’t want to. Draco knew he had one shot at escape, one chance to get out of there and it all boiled down to one thing: Potter.

    Draco didn’t know where else to go.
