More, more, more! (Please?)
Great chapter. A smallish canon quibble. In this chapter Snape says that the Marauders toned down their attacks after the werewolf Prank. That's certainly what many readers assumed prior to DH. However, in DH JKR showed that the werewolf Prank happened *before* Snape's Worst Memory, meaning that as far as we can tell James, Sirius and the others didn't learn anything from the Prank and continued to bully Snape "because he exists," and continued to lack any circumspection over Lupin's being a werewolf.
Your having Snape tell Harry about the prophecy and Lily was very interesting. At this point, Snape is far past the misconceptions of canon Snape and I *can* see him doing this. And Harry's reaction was very believable.
So will Harry tell Snape the rest of the prophecy? I could see him doing it to "test" Snape, assuming as he says at the end of the chapter that Snape won't want him after that.
Author's Response: Gah! You're right about the messed up Snape chronology. The timeline I was referencing hasn't been updated for DH yet. Blech. Okay, I'll clear it up in rewrites. :-) And yes, it's likley Harry will tell him the rest of the prophecy, if only to test him, as you say. Thanks!
That was wonderful. As always, I'm thoroughly enjoying your stories.
An update to this story was quite possibly the best thing I could have come home to on a Friday night after beginning a new job. Not even joking. lol. You're the best.
Such a great chapter! I love Harry in this...I just want to take him home... poor kid :(
