During 19th century London, Harry Potter falls down the chimney of the apothecary of one Professor Severus Snape, bringing with him dire inconveniences. But not every family is found in blood, and not every story follows the same path. For Harry, Snape and Draco, the truth has never been harsher. A Severitus AU story, one without magic. * Warnings for 19th-century society problems, such as poverty, child abuse, racism as well as physical and mental illnesses. Please read the tags.
