Summary
Severus pauses, gauging his surroundings with his senses, not yet reaching for his wand. The boy is near, he can hear the slight hitch of breath, can almost see the shape near the water-swollen stream. The rain continues and the trees appear as inky skeletal things before him, dripping and shining in the moonlight that wavers in and out of dark clouds.
Harry runs away and Snape is sent to find him.

Summary
Sometimes surviving means more than withstanding what is fated to occur. Sometimes it means finding a safe place to hide, or facing death to protect another’s life.
Sometimes it means letting go,
Sometimes it means holding on.

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.
