YES! *Dances* Go Snape go Snape go Snape!!! *skittles galore sour and all kinds* ^_^ excellent Chapter can't wait for the next.
I just have to say THANK YOU for saving this moment until chapter 22. So many people throw it into the first chapter or two of their stories and it infuriates me so much. Lol. But yours is highly realistic in the scheme of things. In any case, I'm anxious for Harry's reaction to it, lol. His so volitile lately, it should be interesting, lol. I also loved that Harry was writing 'I don't care' over and over in his journal. After three hours, though, I'd get way bored of that. Lol.
A bit cliffie? You think??? Please get back to this as soon as humanly possible. I really want to know what Harry will think of that offer. You are a really good writer. Thanks
"He didn’t what that had to do with anything,"
I assume this should be "he didn't know what that had to do with anything,"
Great chapter. I'm very interested to see how you have Harry respond. I could see it going any of several directions. Why do I wonder if Harry is going to distrust this somehow? Not thinking Snape's lying or something, but I'm not sure Harry would at this point really believe an adult *wants* to take such care of him.
!!! Yay, guardianship! Ahh, I'm thoroughly enjoying myself reading your story. Are you going to end it when Harry goes back to school or are you going further than that? I'm glad that at least in your story, you've addressed why Harry was allowed to be abused by Umbridge without any consequences. Another great chapter!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! I'm gonna end the story when it ends, I'm afraid. It will probably be quite a while from now . . . I may even have to go till the END. I mean, I can't have Harry wondering how he can face Voldie after everything that's happened, so he'll actually have to, you know, face him. So, a simpler answer is, "further than that." ;-)
Oh yes!! Such a good ending...I mean, sure it IS a bit of a cliffie, but it's okay. It gives me time to imagine Harry's reaction..lol. And..wait..oh, no...I wonder how he'll react. He'll probably freak out, but deep down be happy about it. Oh how I love to predict..hehehe.
Great chapter, as always. It's taken Harry a realistic amount of time to recover, and although he has relapses, each chapter still seems satisfyingly progressive by the end. I'm anxious to see how Harry takes Snape's petition!
Great chapter, it was really good to see Harry get all that off of his chest, and Severus apologize, never saw that coming. Looking forward to the fit the ministry is going to throw. Keep up the great work, and please update again soon. LES

ooh... the ending made me cackle, which, given that i'm currently supposed to be writing a rather extensive treatment of the collusion of certain elements in germanic literature, caused my colleagues to look at me rather strangely. hah!
it really is remarkable, though, how thoroughly harry has been failed by the adults in his life, and you bring that out wonderfully. i can't wait to see how harry reacts to this, though...
Now that's a Cliffie worthy of a top TV Network at the end of a season! Another great chapter but this one ends with a fantastic statement. He didn't even ask Harry! Just stated what he was going to do. I love how he said that!

Oooh! Next chapter . . . see Harry's head explode! :) And Remus's head too, maybe.
I'm assuming there'll have to be a conversation with Dumbledore about this, ah, rather drastic step, but I'm interested to see if Snape decides to confront McGonagall as well. No doubt about it, that was a particularly egregious abdication of her responsibility as Head of House (as an educator at all, really, or, I dunno, a reasonable human being).
Author's Response: Explosions galore! Bits of Transfigurations Professors mixing in with werewolf bits and . . . it just ain't gonna be pretty. ;-)
