Blind as a Bat
by Spinner
A story in 35 parts, some short, some long. This is fairly PG-13 except for a few chapters. I will give you a heads-up if anything untoward is going to happen.
Summary: Harry is having a rotten summer between his fifth and sixth years. Once back at Hogwarts, the school year doesn’t get any better. He’s experiencing precognitive dreams, and he’s starting to sense things about people when he touches their personal items. If that’s not bad enough, the new Dark Arts instructor appears to fancy him, and Professor Snape is being nice to him. It’s enough to make anyone a bit jumpy.
As luck would have it, Severus Snape is also having a rotten year. His long-estranged, presumed-dead wife has surfaced to ask him for a divorce. The new Dark Arts instructor clearly has a fancy for Harry, and Snape is trying to protect the stupid boy from her. He finds that protecting Harry might mean he has to be kind to him. *ick*
Warning: Blind as a Bat contains slash/slashy scenes, vampirism, foreign words and phrases, ill-advised acrobatics, discussion of child abuse, insinuation of child sexual abuse, explosions, cat death, pirates, various random acts of violence and humor. If this makes you at all squeamish, this probably is not the story for you.
