    I like how this story had lots of severus' point of view! Your writing is captivating and very enjoyable. Sorry I don't know how to review very well.

    I am happy to review that I love your suspense. I love the way you portray Severus, by not making him too soft, especially towards Harry right away. Thank you!

    Author's Response:

    Hi there. Thank you so much for all of your reviews. I am glad that you are enjoying the story even if you think the plot of the two fathers a little out there. But I could not do a Sev is Harry's father fic and cut James out. This way, I have the best of both worlds.

    Hey great story, I love how you are incorporating Albus and Minerva into the story as well.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks Katie. I love Albus and Minerva as well and I always thought they might have been more than just friends.

    Of course, the 'gay' revelation hit that on the head, but we can always live in out imaginations, can't we?

    I hope you continue to enjoy the story.

    Hi, there,

    Sorry for taking so long to read, but I'm really enjoying your story! Severus comes across as very believable with canon Snape, but with a rich, full history that gives him a lot of potential to change and grow.

    It was very clever how Harry was poisoned and Severus came to discover the truth, or at least I suspect it's the truth.

    And now that Harry's awake, they can really begin to interact. I hope Severus will use his new knowledge, both of their (possible) close relationship, and Harry's miserable life with the Dursleys, to make some changes in how he acts. I think Harry would meet him halfway if he thinks Severus has really changed.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you Kristeh. Your review is most welcome.

    A lot more interaction between Sev and Harry is coming up but it is not going to be smooth.

    Albus was very right when he said that Harry had inherited Sev's temper.

    Neither of them know when to pull their heads in. It is three steps forward and one step back for a long time, I am afraid.

    Hope to hear from you again. I have just uploaded chapter 6.

    Another good chapter! Just thought I'd point this out- I noticed that several sentances in the beginning were missing the end quote after someone finished talking. I really like this story so far and I am eagerly awaiting the next chapter!

    BTW- You should know that I am a big reviewer so you'll probably get reviews from me every chapter! :)

    Author's Response:

    Thank you Alexis.

    Great to know you are a regular reviewer. I look forward to more.

     About the missing quotation marks. I have done this when a person is talking a lot and there is more than one paragraph within the speech. You miss the last quotation mark to indicate that the next lot of speech immediately following is still the same speaker.

    I have always noted it in novels. I think it happens to avoid confusion because if there is a lot of dialogue going on, it can become confusing as to who says what, especially if the speech stands alone without 'so and so said' at the end.

    no-one has ever mentioned this before, so I hope I am correct.

    Glad you are still enjoying.

    Just so you know, the hit counts on stories aren't realistic of the number of readers. We tend to have a lot of automatic bots crawling around the site to catalogue everything, and every time they access a page the hit count goes up. We may have only 50 people on the site an hour (usually there are about 20 people on at one time, or less), yet new stories may get 200-300 hits during that time.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you Jan for the advice.

    I did realise that there are many many more hits than actual readers, but i wasn't sure of the actual figures.

    Very very good start. You have considerable talent! Your descriptive passages are enthralling - conveying a stark sense of mood within the visual images. And your characters are finely developed and intriguingly revealed. I am looking forward very much to reading more. Excellent work!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you Twinheart for your kind words.

    I am very glad that you are enjoying the story so much.

    I should have the next chapter up today, so I hope to hear from you again.
