    Yes! I’m cheering for Harry! You’ve written him so well, as a scrappy, lovable little lad.

    Yay for Harry! I was wondering when his accidental magic would go off. I hope they'll both be alright! Another exciting chapter, by the way.

    Hi, i just tried reviewing, but it wouldn't let me so i apologise now if it has actually let me and now you have two saying the exact same thing! Lol! Anyway i just wanted to say that i don't normally review on here, but after reading that nasty review some one wrote i thought i would! It's not true at all what they said! This story is fantastic and that review made ME angry and it's not my story! They had no right to put down your writing like that and i just wanted to make sure that it's not made you feel bad or nervous about posting because this is honestly one of the best stories i've read in a long time! It's so cute and realistic. You make the whole senario so believable! (Sorry i'm really bad at spelling!) Anyway it really is a fantastic story and any grammatical errors went unoticed by me, so it didn't interrupt the flow at all (if there even were any!) Becky :)

    Author's Response: Aww, you're really great! thank you for reviewing! I'm so happy that you like my story. I admit that i was very hurt by that review... It was very weird to have someone critique my grammar and spelling because I think that that's my strong point! I was worried that originality and things like that would be my main problem! I hope you continue reading because I have some very good ideas for my next chapters, and I love to hear everyones' opinions. My next chapter is dedicated to all you lovely reviewers... :-)

    I don't know how to change my response to a review as apart from uploading my own story and reading others I am not very familiar with this site.

    I just wanted to comment on a bad review I received.

    It's funny, I just noticed that the author of the review incorrectly spelled "while" as "wile" and "caused" as "cascaused" or something like that.

    Also, they said that I had put quotation marks before periods. Well, I presume a 'period' is a full stop. We only use the word period for an amount of time and errr... the obvious LOL in the UK. Well, however has a bone to pick over that should take a read of this:

    http://www.englishclub.com/esl-forums/viewtopic.php?t=27305

    Though I would like to know where I actually did put the quotation marks in the wrong place...

    The reviewer accused me of not being able to write, and that is a very hurtful thing to say. I would like to know an example of where I have spelled something wrong or used incorrect punctuation. If someone could point it out, I'll change it ASAP.

    Obviously words like 'honor' and 'favorite' I spell 'honour' and 'favourite' because I write with BRITISH English, as funnily enough I am British. I've NOTHING at all against people who write in American English- but it would be stupid for me, as a Brit, to do so.

    I love my reviewers, you all inspire me oodles and oodles. I'd like to thank you all for the advice and feedback, and I really do take it on board. However, I think that review was just plain vindictive. There's really no need for nastiness on such a wonderful site as this.

    Thank you for all the get well wishes! I'm feeling much better!

    :-)

    Author's Response: oops I wrote 'however has a bone to pick' instead of 'whoever'

    OMG!! Did Harry just save himself and his Daddy?! Go Harry!! And Severus!! Willing to die so that Harry would live - I love your Severus, have I mentioned that?! LOL!!

    Whew!! What a roller coaster ride of a chapter!! This was absolutely fantastic - I was so worried/saddened about poor little Tortured!Harry when the chapter began and now I'm almost giddy with relief!!

    I hope we get some quality cuddles (and confessions!) in the next chapter, and I hope you're finally on the mend!!
    Scarlett

    Author's Response: Hehe thank you for your feedback. We hopefully will get some nice, happy scenes coming up in the next chapter! Glad that you're enjoying the story :-)

    Author's Response: Really? If anything I thought that this was the poorest chapter due to my ill health! :-P

    I love how you showed the love Severus and Harry have for each other. And of course Harry has to do things his own way and not listen to Snape. Excellent chapter

    Author's Response: Hehe, of course Harry does. He's too stubborn for his own good lol. Thanks for your review!
