    "Why are you laughing?" Oh I bet Harry wets the chair laughing! I know I feel about to. First the statement in itself and then his responce to the obvious laughter. Silly Snapey

    Hi! I just read through this whole story and liked it very much! Your Harry is charming, and I like how you've given Harry friends without recreating the Trio; Nott takes some, but not all, of the Hermoine role, but she's still in the story (uniquely!) and Ron still advances two plot points as in canon, but not others. (I had thought you might bring him back for the chess; the Baron was an excellent way to get through that.

    Eagerly awaiting the next chapter (and second year).

    Enjoyed reading this story and am looking forward to seeing how you end it (also hoping you will continue to write 'Before the Dawn'). Keep up the good work

    That was a truly touching chapter -- even worth the wait! I could clearly feel Severus' emotions as he confessed to Harry that his shameful treatment was due to his own feelings of hurt that Harry had rejected him. I'm glad they have straightened things out. There's hope that Severus can eventually convince Harry that he is worth a great deal.

    There's hope that Severus can eventually convince Harry that he is worth a great deal.

    Yes, that is my hope.  I don't think anyone ever took the time to tell Harry that he was worth anything to anyone except by being their "savior" and the BWL, and, for me, it's one of the saddest things about the original books.  Thanks for your review!

    Brilliant! This is so, so good! I love the detail of Snape hiding under the cloak in the last chapter :) Every bit of dialogue is pitch-perfect. Did it take a long time to get just right?

    Author's Response:

    Did it take a long time to get just right?

    Yes!  I brought my rough draft with me to Ireland and hammered at it several times while there, and again upon my return before it felt right.  I didn't want it too sappy or sentimental, nor too tight and controlled either, and I'm glad I seem to have hit the right notes.  Thank you for reviewing!

    I'm glad you had a great time in Ireland! My family is leaving tomorrow on vacation to DisneyWorld and I'm so tired from getting ready. So this will be a short review, I'm afraid.

    But lovely, lovely interaction between Severus and Harry. I'm so happy that everything is straightened out between them now. Looking forward to Year 2!

    Author's Response: Oooh, DisneyWorld!  Fun, fun, fun!  I went when I was 10 and it was the best trip ever . . . until I went backpacking thru Europe when I was 22.  :)  Thanks for the review; I'm hard at work on chapter 51!

    I'm glad Harry recovered and that he and Sev had the talk that they did in the hospital wing. It's great that they’re back to how they were before the misunderstanding, though it seems Harry’s still a bit troubled. Hopefully he can enjoy the ceremony, if he goes.

    Can't wait to see how things go down at the Dursleys this up-coming summer! That should be an interesting affair, they deserve whatever the Professor dishes out. Now that Harry’s reconsidered Sev's offer. I‘m sure the remainder of his summer will be for once enjoyable.

    P.S. Visiting Ireland must have been great! :D

    Author's Response:

    Ireland was lots of fun, but it was also relaxing, and it's been hard to get back in the work groove.  :)

    Harry is still troubled . . . he killed a man, even if he did not mean to (and even though it was his mother's protection that was the final blow to Quirrell's evil), and that's something he won't get over easily.  Also, his trust in Snape took a hard blow, especially after the way he was treated for the second half of the year, and that's not going to be easy to let go of either.  But they can move forward from where they are now, instead of treading water.

    Thanks for reviewing!
