    Oh man, poor Harry. I can't believe he can't go anywhere. That has to suck! *cringe*
    Great chapter! ^^

    Author's Response: Thank you!

    Hmmm, without rereading all 22 chapter does Severus know about Harry's earlier childhood and the cupboard? Keep up the great work.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Severus knows some things about the Dursleys:  that Harry did all the housework and  yardwork, that they didn't feed or dress him properly, and he saw scars across Harry's back way in the beginning...seeing those scars was the major catalyst for him to realise he'd been wrong about the kind of person Harry is.  But he doesnt' know about the cupboard yet...But he will soon!

    I loved this chapter!! It was great to see more of how deeply Severus cares for Harry and although Harry surely cares for Severus, is still not understanding all that's going on...very in character! Acutally, everyone was extremely in character!!

    I really liked how Severus reacted to Harry's "you need to keep me alive so I can kill Volie" statement, it was very heartfelt and so true! I really can't wait to see how Harry adjusts to life in the dungeons and how he reacts when he finally realizes that Severus is giving up a lot in order to keep Harry safe too.

    It was good to see someone else thinking along the same lines as me for once on the topic of Holloween. I never quite understood why Harry was so ok with Holloween, I'm pretty sure that if my parents were murdered, I'd feel depressed on that certain day. So, I like how you put that in, eventhough it was kinda depressing to me...but, Sev being nice and understanding about it made that go away pretty fast.

    I, along with lots of other readers aparently, like how you've brought Fleur back into the story. Hopefully she'll be hanging around Sev's office and quarters so we can see her some more!

    I seriously can't wait to see some of these tutor lessons...hmmm...and Sev's reaction to the blood quill. That should be interesting. So, is Harry going to head the DA still and is it going to be in the dungeons...hmmm...I don't suppose you can really answer those, I'll just have to wait for the next chapter. Hope it comes soon!

    I actually am working on a fic of my own, but want to get lots of it written before posting...so hopefully I'll get something on here eventually!

    Good Luck with the next chapter!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!  I do think the prophecy may have affected Harry's self-esteem in ways that he doesn't even realise.  But knowing now that he is the only one who can defeat Voldie, probably does cause him to wonder sometimes if people (read Dumbledore and other adults) really, truly care for him, or if they care more about his role in the war.  So I wanted Severus to reassure him on that point..

    Yes, I agree totally about Halloween.  Even if Harry doesn't really remember  his parents very well, you'd think he'd at least reflect on them  and their deaths when the date approaches.

    See, I told you I had a reason for showing that Fleur was good at Potions... I'm thinking her being at Hogwarts next year during the DH year will be important, too.  I may even have Bill Weasley play a role at Hogwarts before its over.

    Harry will still be involved in the DA.  As Severus will point out in the next chapter, he was trying to tell Harry that  he's going to arrange for him to do a few things with his friends, with Severus there for protection.

    Oh, I'm glad to hear you're working on a fic!  I'm looking forward to it.  If you don't mind, I'd love to know what it's about!

    Uh, oh. Harry wasn't too tactful there, was he? I like the idea of bringing Fleur in as the substitute. Does that mean we'll be seeing some of Bill Weasley, too?

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Glad you like Fleur's role.  I'm not sure about how much we'll see of her and Bill, though.  Maybe some...

    I'm really glad to see Harry up and eating, it was really sweet that Severus stayed with him for the 8 days. It was shocking that Harry reacted to Severus' news the way he did, thinking that he was going to be locked up like the at the Dursleys. I know that poor Harry has been through a lot of terrible stuff and is feeling very emotional right now so it's understandable. I just hope that after he calms down he'll realize that Severus is willingly giving up essentially his career and a huge portion of his life to take care of and keep Harry safe. This was an exceptionally great chapter. I'm really looking forward to Severus' reaction to what Umbridge did to Harry. Keep up the great work and please update again soon. LES

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Severus does seem to be the kind of person who is 100% committed, once he's made his mind up, and I think that his devotion to Harry is very sweet, too.  Harry was pretty upset, but he'll soon realise that Sev and Dumbles are just trying to protect him, and that he was very unfair to Severus.

    Hey there! I think I'll start out by saying that this story is amazing! You're doing a great job.

    This was another good chapter. Your characterization of Severus was great, and he was very in character. Especially at the end. I'm glad he didn't just lose his temper, actually-Comparing being stuck in his presence to prison couldn't have made him very happy...

    I also like how you have Harry reacting at the end. It was very...teenager-ish. Although I can't say I'd be happy living in one place all the time, either.

    Overall, very sweet chapter. Waiting for your next update!

    Author's Response: Thank you so much!  I'm really  happy you like it!  Yes, the 'prison' comment was pretty unfair of Harry, which he will realise in the next chapter and apologise.  Thanks again!

    I am very eager to see just how Severus will react to leanring about that blood quill. Great chapter and I really hope you'll find time to update again soon!

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Severus won't be pleased, to put it mildly.  I wouldn't want to be in Umbridge's shoes.

    Wow, great chapter! I love how Severus is offended by Harry's rant at the end. Will we get to see them talking through that? Harry is certainly clueless, isn't he, though we really can't expect much else I guess. I love it! I also loved your caring and gentle Snape. Awwww....adorable. Great chapter. Can't wait for more!

    Author's Response: Thanks!  Harry is sort of clueless, but it just wasn't one of his better moments...he was really shocked and upset.  Of course we'll get to see Harry and Severus work it out...that's the whole point of writing these scenes, isn't it?  Yeah, I love caring and gentle Snape, too.
