Summary
Abuse does not always make one into a flinching ball of apologies. Sometimes, to survive, you must become not only self-sacrificing, but silent.
Harry Potter was raised to never allow his family to be caught lying. Harry Potter was raised to never ask questions. Harry Potter was raised in a household where his aunt was the top authority, where his word meant nothing, where the only contribution worth making was action.
In a world where everyone expects something different from him, how will a boy taught from toddler-hood that defying expectations leads to pain survive? How will students and adults react to a Boy-Who-Lived-To-Never-Question-Anything? -

Summary
(A prelude for my Hearth AU - how Harry and Severus' dynamic builds up over the first few weeks of living together, feat. Occlumency, domesticity, food, childhood trauma, and nightmares)It wasn't too bad until the unmistakeable syllables of Crucio.
Next thing Harry knows, there's blood dripping down his face, pooled into dark stains on his pillows, smeared on his hands, on Snape's hands, and it's clotting in his eyelashes too, crusting at the corner of his eye, although he thinks the tackiness he can feel on his cheeks might be tears too, actually.
Bloody hell, how fucking embarrassing.
"Glad you're awake, Potter."
~~~
(Part of Harry believes, deep-down, where his truest, ugliest, most hopeful thoughts cower away, that Snape is genuine in his care, and earnest in his want for Harry to be okay. That he could trust the man with what he already has and more, and still be treated the same.
He won't dare to give into that, not based off of less than a single summer at least, particularly not after the last four years and what little he knows of the war surely coming, but still. The thought of it lingers, in his quietest moments.)
