    Summary

    Ever since she’d been small, Hermione’s reward for good marks had been a rampage through a bookshop, so the day she tore open her O.W.L.s results and triumphantly brandished the eleven Outstandings, her beaming mother said, “We’ll go to Foyles tomorrow,” without any discussion required.

    Summary

    "The boy wore a thin, hospital-style gown that hung loosely on his too-thin frame. His bare feet were streaked with dirt, and from beneath the collar and sleeve of his garments, Harry caught glimpses of scars and fresh bruises. Worse, he had a magic-blocking collar locked around his neck, the kind that made Harry’s stomach churn due to the implications. He knew all too well what happened to children whose magic was forcibly suppressed—it wasn’t just painful; it was debilitating, often leading to long-term damage both physical and magical.
    The sight of them sent memories surging to the surface, memories Harry had spent years burying in the deepest corners of his mind. Scrawny arms reaching through the slats of a cupboard door. Bruises that lingered for weeks. The suffocating helplessness of being unseen, unheard and so terribly hungry. He clenched his fists, fighting the familiar ache in his chest."

    Summary

    It was a long shot—an impossibly long shot—but it was all he had.

    Harry lunged for the photo, his bloodied nose dripping crimson onto the paper as he scrambled for something to write with. But Vernon had locked away all of Harry’s things to prevent him from contacting anyone. In desperation, Harry smeared his blood across the photo with trembling fingers, scrawling three words:

    Please help me.

    He signed it with a shaky, almost illegible ‘Harry’ before stumbling to Hedwig’s cage. He flung the door open and shoved the photo into her talons, his breath coming in sharp, uneven gasps. Vernon’s angry bellows grew louder as he forced the door open, splinters of wood flying into the room.

    “T-take it to Professor Snape!” Harry rasped, barely able to speak through the panic and exhaustion.

    Hedwig let out a distressed hoot as Harry squeezed her through the narrow bars of the window. He turned just as Vernon burst into the room, his face purple with fury, his breathing ragged.
