    Summary

    "The sorrow birds find what is weak, my chest, beak-marked, my eyes long gone." - Ann V. Devilbiss

    Lily Potter is dead.

    No.

    Lily Potter should be dead.

    The cheerful little owl clock on top of the dresser hesitates, then ticks onward. The baby in the crib sucks in another eager breath, and wails anew. The dead girl on the floor- the should be dead girl on the floor- opens her eyes.

    (Lily lives, but sometimes wishes she hadn’t.)

    Oooof I really love this. Positively broke my heart to pieces though lol the last chapter is what finally made me cry 😭 the bit about her feeling possessive over James and not wanting a memorial because he is hers made me tear up and her mistaking Sirius for James is what did me in xD

    Also the chapter where she runs into Snape at the apothecary333 felt very in character for them both, and of course terribly sad lolol

    Loved the depth given to Petunia, it was a nice treat! I like when people talk about how even though Petunia and Lily had their issues, she still likely loved her and would have grieved her in some way when she died. It felt very true to most sibling dynamics in dysfunctional families! I feel the same with my own sister some of the time lol

    Anyways, this was a beautiful fic! Thank you for sharing, it made me cry xD

    Summary

    When Harry blows up Aunt Marge, Dumbledore decides he can't be left to his own devices in Diagon Alley for the whole of August and sends him to stay with the only person available - one highly displeased Severus Snape. Harry, for his part, doesn't think this summer could get any worse. After all, what could be more unpleasant than living with Professor Snape?

    Finding out that Draco Malfoy is also staying at Spinner’s End, of course.

    None of them know how they'll survive a month in each others' company, but they might just come out the other side with something they all need the most: a family.

    Summary

    It’s James Potter who holds little Harry in his arms when Lord Voldemort attacks on that fateful Halloween night.
    It’s Lily Potter who runs with a wand in hand to fight him, and it’s Lily Potter who survives to raise their son. Yet, the two of them aren’t the only ones to live.
    Faced with a second chance at love, Severus Snape despairs, longs and makes horrible mistakes.
    *
    Harry never fears the monsters under his bed. For once, he knows they don’t exist — also, that the dark space under his bed is reserved for his own, personal shadow.
    Harry knows very little about the shadow. He doesn’t know its name or where it came from; just that its eyes are vivid red and Harry is the only one who can see it.
