    Summary

    “And what did you say your name was?” He asked softly.

    “I’m Harry Potter.” The recognition Harry had been waiting for leapt into Sirius’ eyes. Though, not one of jubilation, one of horror.

    “What?” He breathed. “That’s not possible.”

    This fic will be a dimension-hop story where Harry discovers a parent's love for the first time, healing from his past, and some wild plot reveals/Horcrux hunting mania. Takes place right when Bill/Fleur wedding is crashed.
    ATTN: this is an action/adventure fic there will be little to no romance…you have been warned

    ****************************
    The title is inspired by that scene at the end of Order of the Phoenix after [SPOILER ALERT] Sirius dies:

    "Harry, suffering like this proves you are still a man! This pain is part of being human-"
    "THEN-I-DON'T-WANT-TO-BE-HUMAN... I'VE HAD ENOUGH, I'VE SEEN ENOUGH, I WANT OUT, I WANT IT TO END, I DON'T CARE ANYMORE-"
    "You do care," said Dumbledore. "You care so much you feel as though you will bleed to death with the pain of it."
    [Order of the Phoenix/pg 824/J.K. Rowling]

    Summary

    In 1993, Gilderoy Lockhart points a stolen wand at Harry Potter and Ron Weasley with the intent to Obliviate them. The wand doesn't backfire. Gilderoy's "discovery" of the Chamber of Secrets is a short-term success.

    Other consequences are not short-term at all.

    Archived Author's Notes:
    I was watching the Chamber of Secrets movie several years back when the scene in question began to play...and immediately I wanted to know what would happen if the wand had done what it was supposed to do. The answer got very complicated, very, *very* quickly.

    Blame Edgar Allan Poe for the title.

    Beta work by Norcumi and Mrs_Stanley. Brit Spellcheck will be performed...soon.

    *I use the first 7 books and the Tales of Beedle the Bard as canon, but there are moments from the films used because they left me with fun things to play with.
