    Summary

    Twisting of canon starting immediately after OotP and going through HBP. Major canon points in play. As the war escalates, those on both sides find themselves caught between doing what is right and what is easy, and oh, what dreams may come. The Dark must have the Light, and the Light must have the Dark - bone of the father, blood of the mother, the meddling of old fools and the hubris of youth. Whispers of the past meet the potentiality of the future as Harry comes of age in an age of war, where deception is the currency of the day and its cost is highest for those with the most to lose.

    Summary

    Harry doesn't care about Snape beyond having to sit detentions with the man despite being of age. He doesn't. He asks him out for a drink just to get out of detention. So what if it's... nice? So what if they become friends? So what if Snape *is* lonely?

    It's not Harry's problem - at least not until he realises he's accidentally befriended the man, and just how much he cares for Snape.

    Well, shit.
