Very short but still a great story. I like the way you write the characters and worked to get Harry under Snape's care. Great job!

I think we should be giving you skittles, say about a "whole bag full". This is really good, can't wait to see how Snape handles him.

This is a very interesting story! I enjoyed Snape's approach, a blend of cunning and concern. I liked him deciding to take Harry as well, and I look forward to his encounter with the Dursleys.

I liked how Harry referred to muggles as "regular humans." Whether it was intentional or not, it shows that Harry still thinks of himself as a freak and his relatives and other muggles as the norm. I also like that Severus isn't out of character, he is caring but in a manipulative or somewhat distant way.

Good start, poor Harry needs some of Snape's own special brand of love and understanding!!
Hope you update soon!!

Wow, I don't think I've ever come across this particular premise before (and with my reading addiction, that's saying a lot!)
This is a great beginning, and I'm very much looking forward to reading more. I particularly like how you've written Snape as a more compassionate/responsible adult than the uncaring monster he's shown as in the books. Keep it up!
Interesting story so far. I like the idea of Snape using the test to get some answers in the beginning and the fact that he is acting on the information he knew. It'll be good for Harry, even though he feels doomed right about now, to stay with Snape and possibly learn from the man. Good story so far and I look forward to reading more soon!
Again, this is interesting, but I feel like I'm missing some backstory. But it really does have the potential for something amazing.
