    I absolutely love this story and I also love the longer chapters! Just waiting for Harry to really screw up so that Snape can show him exactly how far he is prepared to go... and Harry needs a hug!

    Author's Response: Thank you so much!  And yeah, well...Harry lives to mess up.  Honestly.  lol.

    Brilliant story! I like how Snape seems to care about Harry and it works. At least Harry starts thinking about his plans and starts realising they are not so good afterall. I hope he deto tell Snape about the voice he hears! Looking forward to more!

    Author's Response:

    It's insane how many times I tweaked that plan.  And then I thought...well...they're young, so obviously it's not going to work out perfectly.  And as for Harry confiding in Snape....we'll see ;)

    Thanks very much for reading and reviewing!

    Ooooh, long chapters, definitely! There's more to read that way, and more time for things to progress.

    This was a wonderful chapter.

    I loved Harry from start to finish: pinging the cauldron, his attention so easily distracted, his emotions riding just below the surface, his attitude just oozing, the defiance underscored by sheer terror, his capitulation just a fraction of a second too late and his final declaration "I'm twelve" Perfect! Perhaps you've been a fly on the wall at my home!lol

    Snape was fabulous. He understands these boys but doesn't.

    I loved that Harry can sense that something's changing with his relationship with Snape. He's a little clueless yet, but he did briefly contemplate confiding in Snape, and he's admitting to himself that the great plan might not be so great.

    I'm rambling. I loved it. Please, please post more soon.

    Author's Response:

    Well, no, not a fly, but I have been twelve. :)  I guess I just wanted to make Harry's "tantrum" believable but not without purpose.  He's been through a lot, and regardless of how old you are, it's hard to keep your emotions in check when you have a lot on your mind.

    I quite enjoy writing Snape, so I'm glad you think he's fab. 

    And hey, ramble away...I love reading your feedback!  Thanks so much for the wonderful review ;)

    To answer your question, I prefer longer chapters with more plot. However its not really about what I or anyone else thinks. Its your personal preferance. To quote George Orwell regaurding the rules of writing "...Rule 10: ignore all the rules in order not to say something completly idotic..." (actually that was more of a paraphrase I can't recall the exact words right now).

    I really enjoyed this chapter, especially Harry temper tantrum at the end, it was so realistic and so cute! I'm eagerly looking foward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response: Hi!  Thanks for reviewing :)  And yay!...high five for realism.  lol.  I suppose I was just noticing a pattern with the whole chapter thing, and was just curious.  Anyway, so glad you enjoyed the chapter.

    haha the next chapter will be a hoot? is that because hermiones going to the owlery?
    I loved this chapter! I was so sad when it was over :(

    Author's Response:

    LOL...I didn't even mean for "hoot" to be a pun.  But it works, doesn't it.  ;)  Thanks so much for the review!  i'm so glad you're enjoying the story.

    Longer chapters are just wonderful! I thought it was great the way Snape told Harry to "put his head down". I used to hate being told that by a teacher as a little kid! Awesome chapter! I wish only that I could write some more of my own fic, but I'm having a real struggle with it at the moment! :-)

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Yeah, I thought that was a bit comical myself.  Hope you find time to update your story! :)

    In response to your question....I'll take any chapter I can get. There is something a bit unsatisfying about reading a short chapter, but it is agonizing to have to wait longer for a longer chapter. Does that make sense?

    Thanks so much for updating. I noticed that you had updated when I checked my e-mail earlier, but I was heading out the door so I couldn't take the time to read. Do you have any idea how hard that was? Dang this RL business for interfering with my reading fanfiction. LOL.

    I loved the chapter. Poor Harry is headed for a major meltdown with all that's going on. What in the world was the boy thinking when defying Snape like that? No sense of self-preservation. I was astounded that Snape handled that the way he did. I would have thought that he would have reacted to such outright defiance by wholly and completely flying off the handle. That man is just full of surprises.

    I'm so glad that Snape is finally able to realize that Harry is just a 12 year old boy with a lot on his shoulders. I think he may be the only adult that actually can see Harry for who he really is. I hope that Harry will realize that Snape is the perfect person to talk to about the voice he's hearing, but I have a feeling that it will take a complete meltdown on Harry's part before that happens.

    Thanks so much for the update. You rock! I truly can't wait for the next...

    Author's Response: Yes, it makes perfect sense, actually.rnrnThank YOU for reviewing! I love reading your positive feedback. It's awesome. Yes, Harry makes stupid decisions, but he's twelve. I know that I didn't always think twice about what I did when I was that young, you know? rnrnSnape is very stern, which is mostly all Harry sees at the moment; but we know different, don't we ;)rnrnA meltdown...hmmmm...we'll see... lol.rnrnThanks again for reading and reviewing. I really appreciate it!

    The conversation with dumbledore was entertaining. Well, dumbledore was quite IC, formal and a bit detached. That´s ok, since Harry is only twelve; too young to speak in a more confident way with an adult.
    It`s so funny for me to see Snape taking the attemp to take care of someone, he could be so awkward at times... I love it =)
    Keep writing

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review!  Yeah, when I was writing I thought....huh...this would be the first time Harry speaks to Dumbledore in his office.  So naturally, Harry would feel a bit awkward...I think, anyway.

    once again, lovely chapter! my fav line was:

    The trip to Lockhart’s office was, as always, a complete and utter waste of time

    hehe lockhart has always been one of my all time fav characters

    Author's Response:

    I'm glad you liked that line...lol.  I'm really not a fan of Lockhart in the books, but I actually like how Kenneth Branaugh (sp?) portrayed him in the movie.  Thanks for reading and reviewing!
