The Weight of Truth (слэш)

When Snape discovers Harry is an accidental Horcrux, he makes a choice that changes everything: he tells the boy the truth. What begins as secret training sessions to find an alternative to Harry's prophesied death becomes something neither of them expected.
As Harry's nightmares worsen and his mental state deteriorates, Snape finds himself confronting uncomfortable truths about the "Golden Boy" he thought he knew. The evidence of systematic abuse, the weight of impossible expectations, and a seventeen-year-old slowly unraveling under burdens no one should carry alone.
When Dumbledore's solution to Harry's screaming nightmares is simply to silence them, Snape takes matters into his own hands. Because someone needs to actually care whether Harry Potter survives—and apparently, that someone is him.
