Chapter 01
04/17/2004In Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts, he goes looking for a way to survive the war with Voldemort. What he finds is a reason. Severus Snape isn't hopeful he'll survive the war; all he's looking to do is save Harry once and for all--from his own stupidity if nothing else. What he finds is redemption. And a little laughter and hope along the way.
Chapter 02
04/25/2004In which Harry has his first detention with Snape and some lovely snarkiness ensues. They have the kind of chemistry where things explode. Like tempers, occasionally.

04/25/2004Harry's Question finally gets asked, snarkiness continues , and our hero savors his small triumph.
Chapter 05
04/28/2004Harry, in an attempt to sort out the blossoming of decidedly odd feelings, seeks out his former professor, not knowing how to bring up the subject of his current professor.
Chapter 06
05/02/2004A heart to heart between our hero and everyone's favorite lovey-dovey werewolf. OK, not lovey-dovey, per se, but he's still a sweetie, isn't he? Harry gets a few things off his chest, and a few answers in return.
Chapter 07
05/07/2004In which Harry faces the Mighty Power of the Terrifying Trash Bin. And then, the unthinkable happens. Which of course, involves Snape.
Chapter 08
05/07/2004Snape reveals a sense of humor, and Harry offers the man his heart's desire. But will it be his heart's desire when all is said and done? And how likely is he to take it when Harry's the one offering...
Chapter 10
05/07/2004Ah, you never forget your first time....being taught DADA by Snape. Or being bullied and frightened by Snape. What's the difference; you'll never forget.
Chapter 11
05/07/2004The rest of the first class with Snape. In which Harry appreciates that which most of us take for granted. He loves a hypocrite, and a Drama Queen, and Snarkiness. So do I. Don't you? He just doesn't want to admit it, yet...
Chapter 12
05/07/2004If you have to be humiliated, you'd at least want to be humiliated by someone as sexy as Snape. Not that Harry thinks Snape is at all sexy. No way. It's all in your mind. Is it his fault the man has a voice you could....(blank) off to?
Chapter 13
05/12/2004Well, the title should pretty much say it all. Harry doesn't realize yet why he's acting this way, but he's on the verge of admitting it to himself. Then he'll just have to admit it to Snape, right? Ha ha, I know what you're thinking, that would take nerves of steel. But Harry IS a Gryffindor...
Chapter 14
05/12/2004Harry finds admitting you have a problem is the first step on the road to recovery. Or the road to Hades. The point is, the road goes somewhere. If Snape is at the end of it, all the better.
Chapter 15
05/14/2004Features Harry making a doofus out of himself, and Snape being, well, typically Snape-y, and, oh yes, exploding balls. What more do you want?
Chapter 16
05/17/2004The sound of music...Yes, the much sought-after encounter between Harry and Severus finally arrives. Slash, of course. Because busted balls are just so darned romantic.
Chapter 17
05/19/2004Harry reluctantly helps figure out what Voldemort is up to, and Severus does his best to pretend that he is his usual, cranky, snarky self, and that he has never so much as thought of kissing Harry Potter.
Chapter 18
05/20/2004The love that dare not speak its name in the place that angels fear to tread. But somewhat less romantic (this IS Snape we're talking about) and also more amusing. But to Harry, it's every bit as good. In fact, it is a promised land of milk and honey and snarky teachers and little green reptiles! Now go forth yourselves, and enter what is an Eden for us all!
Chapter 19
05/22/2004It's Halloween, and Harry's got the doldrums. There just isn't any chance he'll get to spend it with Snape...is there? WARNING: next two chapters will contain pseudo-crossdressing and mild sexual violence, along with OOC HP/SS.
Chapter 20
05/25/2004In which things get a little kinky and OOC for Harry and Snape. Involves eye-liner, slavery, and er...punishment. If you don't like slash, give it a wide berth. But neither one of THEM will admit it's slash yet.
Chapter 21
05/28/2004Harry deals with the aftermath of a spanking. He attempts to make up with Snape, and convince everyone (including himself) that he's totally normal. It wouldn't be a problem, if he hadn't enjoyed the spanking quite so much.

Chapter 24
06/16/2004Harry's journal is found...this should make him happy, right? Not so right. Harry and Snape have a confrontation, and oh, is it a doozy!
Chapter 25

Chapter 26
07/06/2004Harry gets a chance at the other side of the closet door--by virtue of the top of Gryffindor table, the Sonorus Charm, and absolutely no shame. The rest of the house reacts to Harry's sudden attack of gayness.
