*Scrimgeor looks annoyed at Harry’s attitude. I would so love some pov scenes of the adults in the books complaining about having to deal with the Potter brat. I remembered reading an excellent fic, based on a somewhat similar idea. It's called "Daddy's Favorite". http://www.fictionalley.org/authors/dzeytoun/DF.html
The description: "Severus Snape has long complained about Albus Dumbledore's favoritism toward Harry Potter. Usually his voice is alone. But is he the only one who feels that way, or is he just the only one who voices the opinion? Here is how several people view the relationship between Dumbledore and Harry in the wake of Harry's fifth year."
The fic has 17 chapters from different povs: Professor Sprout - Professor McGonogall - Arthur Weasley – Snape (Chapter 04) - Professor Flitwick – Nymphadora - Moody –Draco (Chapter 08) – Lupin – Ron – Petunia – Umbridge - Percy Weasley – Sirius – Hermione (very nice chapter) – Dung – Bill Weasley
An excerpt from the fic:
Remember my last, Petunia. The voice of an angry God. The voice telling me that life is short, and that vengeance may be waiting. The voice of wizard and father and conscience and scourge all combined in one. And now the boy is back. He is back and I think that he is hurt even worse than before. I can see it in his expression. I can tell by the way his friends watched him as we walked away. The Old Man will be waiting for me. He will be there when I dream. If not tonight, then soon. Soon he will come. I lie in the darkness of my house and feel the seconds slipping away. Each tick of the clock, each breath brings me closer to the Old Man. Brings me closer to death. Brings me closer to Lily. Brings me closer to Daddy. Brings me closer to Hell.
