This chapter was so horrific! The condition of the Dursleys and Harry's guilt is so well-played. And... it's true that if Harry weren't around, his relatives wouldn't have had this happen to them. That doesn't make it Harry's doing (because it wasn't his intent) but... it certainly does make for a lot of angst...
I really enjoyed this chapter and like how this story developes. At first I wasn't sure, if I would contninue to read it, but you got me hooked. It turned into so much more than he average Harry-gets-turned-into-a-baby-and-snape-takes-care-of-him. I like how they are both unsure what the other is thinking and feeling...it is a learning process rather than instant love. My favorite moment though is that little snippet where snape returns from the death eaters and harry shows concern. Quite the small gesture, but enough encouragement for Snape to coninue building a relationship. I can't wait for more...Oh, by the way, I believe your writing skills have improved tremendously. The first chapters were a bit stiff, lately they somehow ...flow more. Thank you for sharing your story...
Yay! You updated early! Great chapter. Lucky Harry that his aunt signed the contract. Being a ward of the ministry would so not work out. Keep up the good work!
