Summary
“Expect signs of PTSD,” the social worker warned him, “Extreme mood swings, risky behavior, aggression, and self-harm are all things to look out for. I would recommend counseling.”
Severus hasn’t seen any of that yet. Harry is extremely polite, neat, and personable. He likes gardening and football. He helps make grocery lists and cook dinner.
He knows there is more: clues that he’s missing and behaviors he’s overlooking, hints that Harry is struggling more that he’s letting on, but overall, Harry seems remarkably well-adjusted. It’s unnerving.
Because Severus knows that Harry spent a significant portion of his childhood confined to a single cupboard under the stairs. He knows that Harry was not fed consistently and did not have clean clothes that fit him. That he was hit.
By all accounts, Harry should be struggling. In the eight years since Severus first met Harry as an infant, his parents died, he was raised in an abusive household, and then forced to live with an estranged family friend he didn’t remember.
It worries Severus that he’s not seeing it, like Harry could be drowning right in front of him and he wouldn’t even know.

Summary
Peter is never one to skip lab day. An afternoon filled with tinkering in the workshop with Tony, plus dinner in the penthouse with Pepper and Steve and Nat, plus movie night, well, it’s basically Peter’s favorite thing ever. Up there on the list with goslings and LEGO.
So the fact that his throat hurts and his eyes burn with the effort of keeping them open is not going to stop him.

Summary
Harry was angry.
Sometimes he thought that’s all he was: a ball of fiery rage, bottled so tightly that it exploded in regular intervals. Every other emotion glossed over. Anger was all he knew.
No, that wasn’t right. He also knew fear. Visceral, suffocating fear.
Or: Severus Snape finds out about the Dursley's
