    So I'm rereading this chapter in my APUSH class(AP US History) Class. I had read this quickly in the morning before going to school, and I didn't really understand what had happened and why "Severus Snape was also staring intently from the other side [...] on the two gleaming bottles " but i think its because i read it so quickly. I'm right now reading the part when Harry says Snape's a nutter.

    Oh Yes! I finally read it and I got it! When I was skimming it earlier, I missed the part where Harry turns himself in! Good for him!!!! Didn't he have detention tomorrow anyways? Oh please update soon! I'm really learning to love this fic. UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE SOON!

    LOL...you're able to read fanfic during class? 

    I'm glad you reread, because this is one of those fics, I suppose, where you have to soak in every detail. 

    Snape's restatement of the next day's detention and the time (7:00 rather than 6:30) was his way of deliberatly failing to scorn Harry for stealing the ingredients.  The fact that he turned them in was enough. 

    Thanks for the review!  And I'll update as soon as I can :)

    Why did he do that, I would have thought he'd be glad to be out of there with the bottles.

    Author's Response: Well, because he was basically screwed either way.  I suppose I'm trying a Harry-is-attempting-to-be-accountable approach.  :)

    I loved it. Simply said: It was fantastic. You portray Harry's feeling beautifully. And when Snape didn't say anything about the vial...I loved it. Write more as soon as you can please.

    Author's Response:

    *blushes*  Wow, thank you for such a wonderful review!  Harry is a character that I've always been able to relate to really well, home-life aside, and I love writing emotion realstically. 

    The fact that Snape said nothing about the vials is going to matter a great deal in their growing relationship. 

    I'm flattered that you're enjoying my story, and I promise that I will write the next chapter as soon as I can :)

    Oh, the tension! Very well written. I was almost sweating along with Harry. The dramatic beginning with Snape standing by the door with his arm out across it really set the tone for the evening. Harry must be so relieved to have given the stolen ingredients back. What now though, as it is obvious that not only did he deliberately blow up a cauldron, but he was in possession of stolen goods? Waiting anxiously for the next chapter.....I'm certain you will need a break from the stress and confusion of a wedding to get away and type like mad for a bit, just to let off some steam, you know.....
    Really enjoying your story,
    Quinn

    Author's Response:

    Thank you so much for your review!  And I know what you mean about the tension thing...I started on this chapter around 8:00 last night and didn't stop until I reached the end of it around 11:00.  I couldn't even leave myself hanging.  lol.

    Yes, Harry has gotten himself into a tight spot.  However, Snape's dismissal of the ingredients, and Harry's honesty should balance things out a bit.  I struggled in deciding whether or not Harry should give himself up or not but inevitably decided that he should.  Many angst-filled, guilt-ridden chapters would be interesting...but this chapter is vital to the relationship between the two.

    Thanks again for your kind words.  I'm really glad you're enjoying my story :)

    Jade,
    I had to laugh at Harry's reaction to Hermione. She can be relentless when she wants to know something can't she? LOL! I can well imagine that Harry would dread detention with Snape even under the best of circumstances, feeling confused and ashamed certainly would not constitute the best of circumstances!
    Girl, you are just a wonderful writer!
    Tracy

    Author's Response: Thank you so much!  I'm very flattered by your kind words, considering I'm a huge fan of Ideal Guardian.  Yes, a detention with Snape would be something to dread, especially if the man is disappointed.  The next chapter will address Harry's confusion.  Thanks again for the review (and also for the review for Starting From Scratch).  I appreciate it :)

    Jade,
    This story was amazing hon! You captured the personality of both Harry and Snape perfectly as well as their mutual antagonism. Harry finds himself in an altogether new situation with Snape being completely justified while Harry is actually well and truly in the wrong. I like how Snape could not maintain his hate and rage after Harry broke down.
    Loved it!

    Lovely. I think you have a good handle on the inner psyche of a 12 year old boy. Many people don't realize that many little boys are just as emotionally sensitive and teary as girls. Girls usually don't have the macho no-tears-allowed attitude though that is so confounding to the young males of our species.

    Poor Harry. He's really confused isn't he? The thought that Snape would feel disappointed with Harry's actions, much less respond to the transgression in the personal manner of a concerned parent, must boggle his little mind. No wonder he's so worried about facing Snape during detention.
    Snape made a comment about if Harry were a Slytherin his smacking would have been much more severe. Will there be follow up to that observation? I always like to think that Snape has more discipline for his students than we are led to believe.

    Please continue soon. Well written and enjoyable.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you very much for your thoughtful review!  I always enjoy reading stories/novels/etc. that focus on realistic human emotion.  I love connecting to characters, and Harry is a character I have always been able to relate to.  And honestly, boys are just as emotional as girls.  They just hide it better, I guess. 

    I, also, have always thought that Snape would discipline his students, especially his Slytherins, in a more traditional manner.  I meant for Snape's comment about "not sitting for three days" to be a bit of an exaggeration, mostly for effect, but yes, the punishment would have been a bit more severe.  There will be a follow-up. 

    Thanks again!  I should have the next chapter out very soon :)
