29 Jul 2026

Summary
Accidentally trapped in a less than ideal situation, Harry does what he always does, makes the best of it.
Shame the stress of it all kicks off consequences no one expected, least of all poor Severus Snape!
Or:
Summoned to guard and protect Hogwarts Castle, over a hundred Dementors are a bit baffled, but fully willing to do the job. They just wished people would stop over reacting to them!
Or:
Creature Heritage is a thing, lawful and regulated, and when a student begins to show signs of their bloodline asserting itself, BY LAW those changes are supposed to be facilitated!
It is for the safety of both the student and everyone around them to do so.
So why is Albus blocking what Harry needs and how the every loving hell is Severus supposed to deal with that, plus the child, AND the sudden clusterfuck life in the castle has transformed into?
Or:
All Harry wanted was a quiet year to learn all about magic, all Severus wanted was a quiet year to teach his subject, and all Albus wanted was everything to go his way....
Zero out of three anyone?

Or:
Forbidden to EVER drink coffee, Shouta is ever so careful to not get caught doing it, but, oh dear, the bar keep is a UA alumni and they are all snitches!!!
