background, it was Harry. Severus pouted at his sons,
his black eyes glinted with amusement, as he could see the same amused look in

Both boys nodded at him, as he tried to climb out from under Cosmo, who was as
hyperactive as the kids this morning. "Well then, you don't have any
option left except to... eat them, Cosmo.” The dog barked at him in delight and
jumped down from the couch, and ran after the boys who were screaming and
laughing in delight. Of course, Cosmo would not eat them, just catch them,
easier. It was funny to watch them all playing together; he could not help but
smile at their obvious delight.

towel around himself and stepped out of the bathroom. He looked around he saw Damien
laying on his stomach on the couch while Harry was in
his armchair, Cosmo between the two boys, all three of them panted and looked
up when he stepped into the room.

said Severus. "It is your turn Damien, go feed the animals." The
younger boy muttered and grumbled but did as he was told. They had a system
everyone, had chores, the boys were to take turns feeding the animals, he was
proud both his young sons, to be able to do that and not to whine about doing

turning toward Harry. "Harry, the bathroom is yours, hurry along."
Harry smiled at him, one of his shy grins, as he slipped down from Severus'
armchair.

fine but he felt he needed some colors as well. He looked thought some of his

permanent solution than just a glamour. I had hoped
that you would allow me to adopt you." Harry looked a bit confused and
said in a small voice.

finished a faint glow surrounded Harry, he watched as the boy changed, his skin
became paler, his eyelashes longer, his hair silkier and darker, more an ink

but their change was significant, but Severus was sure the boy would inherit
his eyesight. His body transformed as well, Harry became slimmer, and taller.
By the time his change stopped, he was as tall as Demian.
Not tall enough for his age, but with proper care and food he would gain
an average height. Harry told him once he wanted to be tall, Severus did not
have the heart to tell him, the Potters were always average height, while the
came to their proper height just in their later teens. The transformation that Harry
had undergone changed his feature enough that no one would recognize him, if he
did not look at them too closely, maybe Albus Dumbledore,

than to change Harry's name, just to be safe then sorry. But he did not want to
take that choice away from Harry. The last few weeks he had unconsciously
