----- Voldemort died in the ministry of magic in Harry's fifth year along with Dumbledore. Sirius didn't die! Long live Sirius Orion Black!----- Harry was enjoying his sixth year at Hogwarts. Free of Voldemort. Free of responsibility (other than school work). When suddenly, an unexpected accident landed him in a vulnerable situation. Forced to use a wheelchair Harry is shunned by almost everyone. An unexpected person manages to worm his way into Harry's small, tight friend group and eventually his heart.

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!
