Summary: Hindsight is 20/20, but when Harry’s last steps into the forest set him back further than he’d ever thought, he never realised how grateful he’d be to have Snape there to help too. Mentor/guardian fic, time travel, but not cliched.

 

Why this fic is awesome:

I’ve been on a glut of HP time travel fics at the moment, I can’t get enough of them and this one is definitely a little gem hiding behind a vague and somewhat blah summary. In this fic when Harry wakes up after his conversation with Dumbledore at the phantom Kings Cross he finds himself in the forbidden forest along with Snape. Both of them transported into Harry’s first year then go on the second great horcrux hunt while developing a close bond. It’s a lovely mentor fic, very in character in the way it is written and does something I’ve never seen before done quite in this way. Jolly good read.
