Summary
Falling into Snape’s Pensieve, Harry thought he knew what to expect—cruelty, hatred, humiliation. But as the memory unfolded, sharper and more vivid than anything he could have anticipated, he realised he was wrong. Hidden in the shadows of a Hogwarts corridor, he watched two figures he thought he understood completely: James Potter and Severus Snape.
Yet the scene unfolding before him unraveled that certainty. Snape’s usual sneer was gone, replaced by something raw and unguarded. James, once the embodiment of confidence and charm, stood vulnerable, stripped of the bravado Harry had always admired.
“You don’t have to keep doing this,” James whispered, his voice trembling as his fingers ghosted over Snape’s sleeve. “You don’t have to pretend.”
Snape flinched but didn’t pull away, his voice low and brittle. “I’m not pretending,” he murmured. “But you… you don’t want this.”
James stepped closer, his intent unmistakable, his lips inches from Snape’s.
Harry’s breath hitched as the truth struck him. His father wasn’t stopping. He wasn’t pulling back. He was leaning in.
And in that single, devastating moment, everything Harry thought he knew about his father shattered.

Summary
Headmaster Snape is discovered as a spy and stumbles into the Golden Trio's camp injured, and carrying nothing but an old, bloodstained journal, a map of the UK with strange dots on it, and the clothes on his back. Oh, and the Sword of Gryffindor? He demands Sanctuary from Harry, an old wizarding custom that forces Harry to give the man food and shelter for one month while Severus pleads his case. Harry reluctantly agrees, and so begins the maddest month of his life. Between finding out the truth about Severus, translating Voldemort's twisted journal, and discovering even his own life is nothing like he thought, Harry has to rebuild his world from the ground up, all while knocking the pieces from Voldemort's soul one by one.
Harry finds his wings, his mother, his mate, the mentor he believed dead, and his true destiny all in four short weeks.
