Harry Potter has been living his life in fear. Fear of his uncle, fear of his power, fear of his magic, fear of his own shadow. But one day, during a routine trip to the market, he meets Tony. Tony has everything someone could possibly desire. But there's one thing missing from his life. When he is walking down the street one day and sees a boy faint on the sidewalk in front of the market, he takes him in under his wing. Is it possible that this one second could possibly change both of their lives forever? (***this fiction will differ from the actual story line and some characters will be very ooc-- please also note trigger warnings on past abuse, sexual assault, and self harm***)

Umbridge crashes one of the DA meetings with her Inquisitorial Squad. A misused spell sends everyone in the room into Harry Potter's memories.

As Harry Potter slays the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, blood and venom get in his eyes, mostly blinding him. While Harry learns to adapt, he makes some new friends. But this is more than a story of adaptation and friendship as there are threats... and Harry isn't the only one with a past that haunts him. Blind!Harry POV. Disabled OCs. Very slow-build. No pairings. Now complete. Cross-posted on ffnet and AO3 as Basilisk Eyes by Hegemone. I've started the sequel: Phoenix Tears. Please leave me a comment; I'd love to know what you think!
