Summary
Harry watched in sickening disappointment as Snape vanished his potion with a flick of his wand.
“Disappointing, as expected.” Snape said curtly, his face twisted into a cruel sneer, before making his way to the next table.
A spark of rage ignited in Harry’s gut, but it was quickly extinguished from the wave of apathy that followed. The professor had barely looked at his potion before deeming it unworthy, the same thing he had done for each class in the past week.
Although Ron and Hermione were both outraged by Snape’s harshness, Harry knew why the professor was acting the way he was. Just a week ago, Harry had intruded on the man's worst memories, of being ridiculed and disparaged by Harry’s own father, someone, until this point, Harry had looked up to and admired.
Or:
Snape only sees Harry as an Echo of his father. So what happens when he is forced to realize that maybe Harry is not who he thought.
WARNING: Contains Umbridge and use of Blood Quills. Read at your own risk.

Summary
Just like the many amazing Slytherin Harry Potter fics, this is my take on what would happen if Harry Potter was just a little bit smarter, a little bit crueler, and acted a little bit more like the Slytherin we knew he could be.
Takes inspiration from too many stories to count, but includes tropes like Slytherin Harry, awesome goblins, Dumbledore bashing, and Harry destroying any machinations laid out for him simply by existing and giving things a second thought. He refuses to be anybody's puppet.
After Harry was introduced to the wizarding world, some red flags were raised and questions left unanswered, so he decided to ditch his babysitter and return to Diagon Alley unsupervised. Harry returned to the bank and found that Dumbledore had been manipulating everything from behind the scenes. Eager to leave the Dursleys behind, Hadrian - he learned his name was - will do whatever it takes to get out from under Dumbledore's thumb, even if it means walking a darker path than expected of the Wizarding world's Savior.

Summary
Harry Potter is used to headaches. When he was little he would get one every day. All he had to do was blink, and it would be gone.
————-()————-
“Are you feeling alright, Harry?”
The room looked weird. Harry felt weird. He stared at his professor blankly. It was hot in here. He felt like he was floating.
“Harry?”
Hermione put her arm on his shoulder. He turned to look at her. Swallowed the blood in his mouth. He felt so strange.
Don't worry, he wanted to tell her. I'll blink and it will all be over.
His mouth didn't move.
And then he blinked.
