Follow Severus through his life from years 9 through 20 as he meets Lily, goes to school, falls in love with a friend, and becomes a Death Eater. I am not from GB, so the dialects reflect those I know in order to best preserve the flow of the story. Rated T for severe child abuse and neglect, rape (not graphically depicted, and warning before the chapter), and implied anorexia

Someday his father will stop drinking. Someday life will be neater, less painful. Someday people will see that he isn't just the dirty son of a drunkard. Someday he'll be worthy of the love his father has told him doesn't exist. But sometimes our somedays never come true. I am a junior in college- my writing style is developed and personal.
