    Actually, I kind of like stories where Fleur isn't hopeless. I mean, as you point out, she was an entire school's Tri-wizard champion. I think canon would have made more sense if she had been a little more competent.

    Author's Response: Thank you, and I agree about Fleur.  She's so dazzingly beautiful that it's like that all that's ever mentioned about her.  I do think she'd be pretty talented, too.

    Yippee! Severus doesn't have to keep spying in this story. I assume that means he's going to have his hands quite full with helping Harry.

    Author's Response: Thanks, I didn't want Severus to have to keep spying--partly because I don't want that to be a reason for him to try not to become close to Harry, and partly because, as you said, he's going to be busy helping Harry from now on.

    Lovely beginning chapter. It has a nice flow, and hints at the coming emotional depths. I sure wish that Severus and Dumbledore actually had a relationship like this. ;-)

    Author's Response: Thank you so much!  I agree about Severus and Dumbledore.  I think I've always imagined their relationship being similar and can't accept anything different.

    Good chapter! I'm curious to see how Harry will be once he wakes up in the next chapter. Please update again soon!

    Author's Response: Thank you!  I was playing around with chapter 6 tonight, deciding how Harry will awaken.  He'll definitely be surprised to find himself in Snape's bedroom!

    I really liked Snape's reacton to Dumbledore's admonshment. The whole chapter was good but I liked the conversation at the end, best.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  I'm glad you liked Snape's reaction.  It's kind of ironic that he's hurt and insulted by Dumbledore telling him not to use that information against Harry.  I know the Severus in my story wouldn't taunt Harry about child abuse, but I can see why Dumbledore might not be as sure and feels the need to caution him.

    Great! Yay for hurt/comfort! I love that all the Weasleys were there and Hermione, for Harry. Sweet. I love the picture of Snape grabbing Harry and apparating out, just as Voldemort was coming into the room. Ha! Take that Voldie! The curse wounds sound bad... I hope they can be healed, but not right away of course. :) Good chapter! Thank you for updating it!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you again, Jan!  I just love hurt/comfort and mush!  And I thought that the Weasleys and Hermione would want to be there for Harry.  Who knows--maybe subconsciously realizing he's safe and with people who love him will keep him from being permanently damaged by the DEs treatment.

    I'm glad you liked the image of Snape holding Harry and Apparating away under Voldemort's nose.  That was one of the images that I had when I first began planning the story, and it just grabbed me and demanded to be written.  And it means Severus' role as a spy is pretty much shot so now he'll have to help the war effort in a new way.

    And yep, the curse wounds will be healed eventually, but not before he's had lots of time to recover in Snape's quarters!

    Good chapter! I'm glad they got him out of there on time! I hope there's more soon!

    Author's Response: Thanks so much!  Of course they had to get Harry out on time, or there wouldn't be very much story, but he's still got plenty of adventures ahead--hopefully, more pleasant than being tortured by DEs though!

    I just started this story. Good writing. Snape is very much in character, and the little we've seen of Harry (other than at a distance through Snape's eyes), is IC as well. I'm looking forward to more. Nice start.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  I'm so happy you like the characterizations, and it will be more of Harry's POV as the story goes along.

    This fic is pretty amazing! And I am glad that you did not go all gory in your descriptions, just kept to what we truly needed to know to set the situation. You've written this mostly from Snape's POV, which is interesting, as you have shown us how he has been given things to re-evaluate and question. Now, the stage is set and I am very eager to see what will happen next!

    Author's Response:

    Wow, thanks!  I'm really glad you're enjoying it!  I don't think I could write anything really gory--it was hard enough writing that violent scene as it was.  I can hardly bear torture scenes, and prefer to sort skip over them and get on to the recovery, and hurt/comfort parts. 

    Yes, so far the story has been mostly Snape's POV, which I felt was kind of necessary to get the points across that I wanted to in these first chapters.  As the story goes on, I think it will become more through Harry's eyes, but I will alternate POV between the two of them.
