Summary
“I only want to talk.”
“You’re a middle-aged man who just wants to talk,” he makes air quotes with his fingers to emphasize his words, “to a kid. That’s not weird or creepy at all.”
Severus blows out a heavy breath. “Fine. What if I buy you breakfast somewhere? You seem like you could use a meal.”
“Are you trying to bribe me?”
“Call it a deal. You eat, I speak, you listen. Perhaps you’ll even speak as well and I will listen. Sound fair?”
Harry hesitates. “Sounds like a trap to me, but… whatever.”

Summary

A child whom Severus and the majority of the wizarding world had thought to be a spoilt prince with a heart beating contemptibly.
Severus hated being wrong.
***
Harry Potter is sorted into Slytherin, which automatically makes his problems Severus' problems. Like, more so than usual. Severus, being the ridiculously responsible professor that he is, has an important discussion with the boy.

Summary
“Are you quite alright, Professor Potter?” Snape asked evenly.
“Yes,” Harry lied. “I’m fine.”
“I realize that this subject makes you uncomfortable,” Snape said, adjusting his collar, “as it does most people. However, do realize that Amelia Awlyn is not the first case of sexual abuse Hogwarts has seen, and she more than likely will not be the last. These are the sort of things one must grow used to taking care of as a teacher in this school, in any school. While we are unable to prevent these things from happening, the important thing is that we are doing all we can to help now.”
Harry wondered where all this help was when he was attending Hogwarts.
Snape glanced at Harry and sniffed. “You did the right thing in coming to me.”
Harry tried to alter his memory and imagine what it would sound like to hear those words in Dumbledore’s voice.
OR

Summary
He decided to stop reminding the teachers that he didn’t have any parents to make presents for, too. Instead, he did the projects as he was told, writing Happy Christmas, Happy Mother’s Day, Happy Father’s Day, and signing empty “I love you’s” to people who did not exist for him. He decided not to throw them away like Aunt Petunia had done with his either, and instead saved them like she had with Dudley’s presents. He kept them under the mattress on the cot in his cupboard like he did with all other things that were precious to him, which really didn’t amount to much.
Harry often wondered what it would be like to have a parent who treasured his handmade gifts like Aunt Petunia did with Dudley, a parent who didn’t see his presence as a nuisance. Maybe that’s why he kept these things, for the hope that someday, maybe, he’d have someone he could give them to. Someone who would treat them as a keepsake, someone who would treat him like something of value.
Maybe someday.
