  1. Summary

    It all began with a too-quiet Sunday morning, and within the week evolved into a hair-raising chase from Cumbria back to Surrey.

    Harry Potter certainly never bargained for a relocation at the tender age of eight, nor to find himself under the custodianship of a curmudgeonly twenty-eight-year-old rock aficionado named Severus Snape.

    Less parent than partner in crime, Snape at times seems as likely to tacitly encourage Harry's mischief as he is to take him to task over it. Perhaps, at that, a father-figure isn't in the cards...

    Perhaps, just perhaps, Harry would be better served by a different sort of role model entirely.

    Summary

    This story was originally published on ff (dot) net and has been updated, edited, and has new scenes added.

    After a long absence from Paris, Christine has returned for a performance at the 1889 World Fair.
    Erik has spent the last year planning for her return and the moment in which he will finally have Christine back in his life, not only for his own sake, but the boy Christine left on his doorstep eight and a half years earlier.

    But Erik's plans don't go as he intends, and an encounter with his former nemesis--Christine's husband--leads to the discovery that what he has always wanted is not what it seems, and the life he has been searching for is closer than he realized.

    One of the best Phantom stories I’ve ever read. Infinite rereads on this work, it’s a masterpiece.

    Cool premise. Christine being sent to the future is not usually done.
