Summary
This is a Snape mentors Harry (Severitus) story centered on a disciplinary mentor dynamic in which corporal punishment is a core theme.
After Voldemort's return in the graveyard in Goblet of Fire, Dumbledore asks Snape to take a more hands-on role in protecting Harry, starting by giving him Occlumency lessons earlier than in canon. This is soon expanded into a broader mentorship, initiated by Snape with the goal of protecting Harry more effectively.
Snape grows to care for Harry, and Harry slowly comes to appreciate Snape — though their relationship develops gradually, with significant tension, conflict, and setbacks. The threat of Voldemort and Snape’s concerns about Harry’s recklessness shape their dynamic, keeping Snape rigid and demanding for much of Order of the Phoenix. The story will remain close to canon during the fifth year, then diverge more substantially in years six and seven as their mentorship deepens.
Content Warning: This story centers around the theme of corporal punishment of a minor within a mentor relationship. If that sounds potentially triggering, then this is probably not the best story for you, as it will be a central plot point and not something that can be easily skipped around.

Summary
“Do you feel strong hitting me?” Neville spits out. He doesn’t think he’s ever been this angry before, but there’s something else too. He wants to feel it again, the pain, wants to control it like he did last time. This isn’t like Amycus Carrow driving his wand into his shoulder blades while whispering about his parents, this isn’t sitting scared in a school bench while his sister rants about muggles with a crazy glint in her eye. A choice. He’s in control here, he can take it. “Do it again you fucking coward.”

Summary
When Harry Potter was 8, Severus took him from the Dursleys, but never stopped hating and mistreating him. The time has come for Severus to learn the consequences of his choices.
Also- I am not JK Rowling and I do not own these characters.
