I had tried this story a while ago and just couldn't get into it then, but I'm glad I tried again. I must commend your Dumbledore in this chapter. often Snape/Harry guardian stories feel the need to make DD evil in order to bring Snape and Harry together. DD in this chapter is much as I believe he wanted to be in HBP but Draco wasn't to this point yet.
The slow acceptance that both boys are seriously damaged. Another lovely chapter.
