    Summary

    Harry's sent reeling when he learns that Professor Snape is his bio dad, and if that were all he had to deal with, he'd probably be all right, but he's got werewolves, escaped convicts, a stubborn Dark Lord, and his own inner demons to deal with. Starts third year. Rating mostly for violence. Story deals with mental health, bigotry and child abuse. See more notes inside.

    Summary

    Severus Snape had made his choices long ago and didn't think he could ever be worthy of forgiveness. He lives a life of regret for what he has done and resentment for what has been done to him. What Albus Dumbledore asks him to do requires tremendous courage and sacrifice - but he carries out his penance willingly because he knows he is the only one who can do what he can do. Sirius Black has escaped from Azkaban, but the horror of his wrongful imprisonment cannot be forgotten. Every day he faces a battle that no one else can ever truly understand, but love for Harry and hope for a better world and the family they'll someday be gives him the strength to keep fighting with an open heart. Harry Potter has always had too much asked of him but he's never had to fight alone. While being forced by Dumbledore to learn Occlumency from Snape over the summer, he realizes that he's had a protector in the professor all along. With the discovery of common ground between them, nothing will ever be the same again. Everyone deserves a second chance.

    Summary

    SEQUEL to Two Weeks! With the knowledge of his fate weighing heavily on his chest, Harry is struggling to cope with his latest revelations as he is plunged into his sixth year at Hogwarts. Meanwhile, a certain Potions Master, now Defense Professor, is hellbent on finding a solution. The two wizards had never seen eye-to-eye, but that is coming to a change as the two must co-work and conspire against more than just the Dark Lord now. But with both of them burdened with their past mistakes and trauma, the path they have chosen will not prove easy.

    But maybe they will not have to venture it alone. At least, not anymore.

    So, it begs the question: will they succeed? Will they overcome the many obstacles thrown in their way by this damned war, where the battlefield is a chess board, and they are two mere pawns, played by the two most feared and powerful wizards of the century?

    Will they find life and solace in their mere existence?
