    Summary

    There is one constant at Hogwarts: One new Defence Teacher every term. Everyone knew it. They also learned to keep their expectations low.
    James wasn't sure how the new teacher was able to destroy even the lowest of expectations, but here they were.
    Professor Young (or in full: Professor Flynn Ulrich Clayton Kendrick Young) was an idiot who went undefeated. So how was it possible that he still learned from him?

    Or

    Harry has no idea how he ended up in the past and managed to become the DADA teacher at Hogwarts, but he knows one thing for sure: He won’t be one of Dumbledore's pawns, and he won't be pulled into the bubbling war, if that means he has to play the idiot, so be it. He had enough incompetent teachers to know how to play the role.

    Summary

    When Harry finds an injured Snape on his doorstep and must hide him from the Dursleys, he has no idea that this very, very bad day will be the start of something good.

    Harry and Snape are thrown together by annoying relatives, a series of strange dreams, and Voldemort's latest hunt for Harry, but their greatest challenge may well be surviving each other. This will be a long summer unless the two can find a way to work together. A slow-burn enemy-to-mentor story.

    Alternate 6th summer (and part of the school year): post-OotP; ignores HBP and DH. No slash, no romance. NOW COMPLETE!

    Summary

    Harry thought he’d definitely be expelled after blowing up Aunt Marge and running away from Privet Drive. Instead, he faces a far worse doom: a summer of playing house with Snape.
