Title: Chapter 8: Severus Snape 13 Oct 2009 6:45 am
Reviewer: dancingkatz (Signed) [Report This]
    Wow! I think everyone is perfectly in character. And I love the background of Severus' actions to rescue those he could and limit Voldemort's and the Death Eaters' damages. I like your idea concerning his actions and how he chose to work with Dumbledore and the Order of the Phoenix a lot more than the way it happened in canon.

    I also like how Harry is handling himself here. He's being very mature and while he still has issues with Professor Snape (and admits it, hurrah!--thanks for not making him do a complete immediate 180 on the matter; this is so much more believable than 90+% of the HPSS gen fics I read) I think that you've done an excellent job of showing his reconsideration of the man and his finally beginning to really respect the man.

    I just realized that I will probably be up all night reading this fic. It has me so involved that sleep takes a distant second place to seeing what happens next.

    Bravissimi!

    OMG! I absolutely LOVE your Snape! This is Severus the true Spy. I was reminded of James Bond (not the caricature from the films but the real thing from Ian Fleming's books). I am definitely going to send the link for this story to my sister who is a very big Severus fan.

    I just wish I had found this story much, much sooner than I did. Now on to the next chapter! I wish I could give you a rating of 20.

    Hi
    I just discovered and read your whole story in a very short time! I love Snape's character here--so dark, but still has a human side. I see you haven't posted for a while. Please, please add more to this story. This is one that I really, really want to read the end of. I'm looking forward to Harry being back at school, and seeing how his friends and others react to the new relationship between Harry and Snape.

    Please, please add more soon!

    I just thought you should be aware that I haven't given up on your wonderful story.

    I know what it feels like to have writer's block. I started and story and got stalled a bit. Reading is certainly easier than writing.

    That's okay. I'll wait patiently; because all good things are worth waiting for, aren't they?

    You have not updated or (even more worrying) answered a review since Nov. 15. It is now Dec. 6 and this wonderful story seems to be fading into the mist of the "Never-ended". And I would hate that!!! I love your writing, your characterization, your story line, a.s.o. You are very gifted and (yeeehaaa!) has validated my views re. Hogwarts as a wasteland of missed opportunities re. the training of those doomed to fight (and that makes me angry!) Your story addresses these issues and that makes me happy. And (I think I said so before - but it may be repeated - I LOVE YOUR STRONG WARRIOR SEVERUS!!!) So, there, enough shouting -but seriously, please update. Writer's block is irritating but can be overcome. Can I help? Anything to keep this going.
    With hope from one of your fans
    Best regards,

    I've reread your all of your chapters like 4 times now. Pathetic, I know, but I love the tone of your story. Your Snape has untapped depths. He projects a facade of uncaring while doing what has to be done. His grim determination to prepare Harry suits him.
    I'd really love to see a scene where Harry is dueling Malfoy, say in Defense Against the Dark Arts, and while he wins the duel, he takes some injury from a Slytherin(s) who try to assist Malfoy. I'd hate to be on the receiving end of Snape's wrath...I assume he'd take it personally that his charge was injured. There does that help with the block?
