    I have NO idea how your imagination could have gone up with the imagery in this chapter, of Harry in Voldy's mind: but it's fantastic! Especially when the "sparks" come and light up the darkness. Excellent writing!

    I'm re-reading and it occurred to me to ask - between midnight conversation and first occlumency lesson there were, what, 10 hours? So when did Snape have time to do his extensive research, consult with colleaques and brew a potion? Did he do it earlier, perhaps after the apology?

    About the current events, I'm depressed and that makes me crap at reviewing but I loved reading.

    The way you described Voldemort’s mind was masterly, I could see and fell the evil. Harry has definitely got his Slytherin self in this chapter, the way he persuaded Severus was so sneaky but absolutely truthful.
    Thank you a wonderful chapter can’t wait for the next one!

    I can’t tell you how excited I was when I got the notification that you had updated! I’ll admit I’ve been checking P&S daily for the last week to re-read OME and check if there was an update - I’ve missed this fic so much! This chapter is definitely going to be on my favorites list. We all know that Snape would die before saying “Harry, go ahead and risk your life to save mine” but I love the way you wrote their compromise, with Snape (very, very grudgingly) going along with the plan. I also love that Snape brought up Harry’s promise -- I’m sure it hit a sore spot, especially considering their previous experiences with promises! It’s funny that the majority of the times where Harry and Snape fight, it just goes to show how much they care about each other’s well being. It’s so fitting that Snape’s way of showing affection (God forbid) comes in the form of insults. Although it might be obvious to the reader, it was so good to see Harry vocalize how much he needs Snape -- to beat Voldemort, for sure, but in almost all other respects as well. I think one of my favorite parts of your characterization of Harry is how he is still a teenager who wears his heart on his sleeve despite his maturity and power. This chapter was also just incredibly well-written (like every other chapter, of course :)) -- I loved your description of Voldemort’s icky, no-good mind & how we were able to visualize Harry’s use of the mental arts. I’m so excited (and nervous) to see how Harry’s confrontation with Voldemort goes, but since you’ve promised us a happy ending…. ;)

    Since you liked my last Merlin fic rec, I have another: For the Weary by lady_ragnell on AO3! It’s been a while since I’ve last read it, but I hope it’s to your liking! You might want to avoid the sequel though (it contains slash). I also found this platonic Merlin/Arthur fic list on fanfic.net: https://m.fanfiction.net/community/The-Best-Merlin-Arthur-Friendship-Stories/72690/! I haven’t had the chance to check out those fics yet but hopefully there’s some gems on there!

    Your Merlin fic idea sounds like just the type of thing I’d love to read! I’ve read fics where Merlin goes back in time and fixes everything without Arthur knowing, but your version is much better -- I feel like Arthur not knowing sort of defeats the purpose (and their relationship’s development throughout the seasons). Feel free to bounce any Merlin-related ideas off me at any time, the show still holds such a special place in my heart! Although I haven’t watched all the Avengers movies, I look forward to your fic nevertheless! Tony and Peter’s dynamic is always a joy to read about and I’m assuming it’ll be a part of your fic :) And a OME sequel… well, you know how much I’d welcome that ;)

    About AO3, I’m pretty sure you’re right in that there’s no way to easily upload an entire fic in one go, unfortunately. I’d be happy to look over your tags/formatting when you do upload, though! There’s a sad lack of platonic Harry & Snape fics on AO3 (which is why I discovered P&S in the first place!) so I’m sure an upload there would be highly appreciated!

    One other thing: Although I’ve missed this fic dearly, I hope you don’t feel forced to write or anything! Your mental health always comes first and we all understand that :)

    Thank you for an awesome chapter & I hope your 2021 is going wonderful so far!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you for another long review!! (And sorry it took me so long to reply!) You know, one of my favorite dynamics between Snape and Harry is how Harry wears his heart on his sleeve and Snape keeps his under lock and key, buried down deep. They're such an interesting contrast and have a fun effect on each other. 

    Ooh thank you for the other Merlin rec! I haven't read it yet, but I marked it for later. I like the description. :) And I bookmarked the list site - thank you!! You know, I didn't like the way they ended Merlin, and I didn't like a lot of things about the last season, but I DO think they did a good job with the reveal. Their conversations afterward were Just. Right. I wouldn't want to mess with it or do it any differently. That's why I much prefer letting their relationship at that point stand, but having them going back together to fix all the other stuff that went wrong. 

    I think I need to upload to AO3 before I finish writing OME so I can let people know it's there, so I might go ahead and start uploading chapters this week. I'll let you know when it's up so you can look it over and let me know if I did anything wrong with the tags, format, etc. :) Thank you for offering!!
