    Hee! Absolutely adored Shadow's encounter with Titus! Just goes to show that not all feline behavior is pure instinct-- some has to be learned! (I could just SEE Shadow rudely sticking his nose into Titus' fur to smell him!!!) And who is the "other" black cat? Possibly Millicent Bulstrode's? (I suppose Harry never took notice of Hermione's scent when she was a cat-woman...) // Also, amazing details regarding Harry's training session. And he killed a boggart-- I didn't expect that! Hmm... Now I'm wondering if that foreshadows someone else's demise. We shall see... Terrific chapter, Keina!

    I approve of Snape's methods. I don't mean to sound blood thirsty, but I would want my child to fight in any situation where he or she was threatened. I have a feeling Snape feels the same way. So are we going to hear more about Snape and James' wands and why and if Harry can use them? (I am determined to get an answer. I'm sure Harry feels the same way. *grins*)

    So is Harry ever going to blackmail Snape about using Gryffindor's sword? If he does, you should totally have it revealed to Snape that Harry was supposed to be in Slytherin. (I'll admit I was kind of hoping that Harry was going to tell Snape when he was discussing the honorary Slytherin thing.)

    So can we see Snape and Harry watching Wizard of Oz? Just curious, I could totally see them watching the movie together. Perhaps even seeing the play Wicked or watching Return to Oz. (If you haven't seen it, you totally have to!)

    Keina, your writing is so skilled, a beta can only translate what is there, though the translating is amazing (send my regards). I'm an American that knows a bit of French, so I read the chapter first in French, then in English. Strangely, I get most of it, but it is reassuring to read it in English so I pick up the nuances. Once again, spectacular job.

    Author's Response: Ow thank you very much! I'm glad that you can read in French too! English make the story much better though, some stories just don't want to be written in another language that their own, I guess ;-)

    Lovely chapter I love how Minerva spys on the house! Very Slytherin of her!

    Author's Response: You know, curiosity killed the cat ;-)

    It was a terrible lesson to teach Harry, but one that, unfortunately, needed to be taught. The world isn't safe for Harry and he needs to be able to protect himself, even if it means killing someone..or something, sad though that is. I'm glad that Harry is willing to forgive Severus for the harsh lesson, even if he doesn't approve of the method used.

    It was nice of Minerva to take Harry about and introduce him to all of the other felines in the castle. It will take time, but I'm sure that he will be able to get back at Mrs. Norris at some point. I wonder if Severus has taken up a collection of Harry's fur? :D

    Author's Response:

    Harry is very willing to believe whatever Snape tells him. He Severus says he needs to do it, that's ok... it's nice some times to have someone tell you that it's not your entire responsability if you have something hard to do. Less guilt ;-)

    As for fur, if Severus is having the same problem I am, he will soon have way too much of it ;-) Amazing how much hair a cat can lose at spring!

    Hooray for a new chapter!!! Thank you Keina and a HUGE thanks to Raewhit!!

    This chapter has it all - Shadow, intense moments, humor, a look at Harry's magic, talk of Lily - I just loved it. Thank you SO much also for giving Lily/James/Snape an appropriate sound track for their youth! I am a few years older than they would have been and the songs they listened to resonated for me as well! It surely drived me wild to start a fanfic about Harry or about the Marauders period and have music by groups whose members were either not born yet or in grammar school during the supposed period - GAAAH!!

    I envy you being able to pop over to London for a short trip - have a great time!

    Author's Response:

    thank you ;-) I'm glad you liked it! You'll see more of Lily in the next chapter!

    I was careful while chosing the music, I checked the dates, except for one special song from Billy Joel that I like very much and just couldn't resist puting here!

    And anyway, I still like those songs, even though I am younger ;-)

    London was really great, but can you believe that: I was so tired when I came back that I forgot the bag with all the souvenirs in the cab! No way to get them back... all that chocolate lost *sigh*
