The Effects of a Violent Childhood on the Boy Who Lived This is an academic essay for a Master's level course on the effects of violence on children, particularly domestic violence. It discusses the effects of Harry Potter's traumatic upbringing and school years on his psyche. I'm considering a rewrite to include events of the last book. Reviews are appreciated! I got an A+.

Narcissa talks to angels. Darkfic. Drug abuse. Songfic, "She Talks to Angels," by the Black Crowes.

Ron creates a strange potion in potion class. While not the flight potion he was assigned, it has some interesting affects. What would you do if you knew how to save the world.

Where is the laughing, happy, innocent boy that Ginny Weasley once knew as her brother? She can't find him now, in the face of the man who demands that she help him find a powerful Dark artifact in the smoldering ruins of the Burrow.

How evil is too evil? What atrocity could convince a Death Eater to rethink his life? Can the simple wisdom of a child convince Severus Snape that his life is extremely flawed?

This is a chronicle of the misadventures of a very awkward and bookish Severus Snape and his best friend, the slick and manipulative Lucius Malfoy, during their fifth year. Vengeance against a common enemy comes from an unlikely source, a love potion. And somewhere in his fifth year, Severus learns how to do more than take orders. Despite the first chapter and the summary, I swear on all things holy that this is not SlytherSlash. But don't hold that against me. :)
