    ‘Your being in a coma might not have been a holiday for you,' said Severus before throwing the rest of the whisky down his throat. ‘But it certainly was for me.'
    Oooh harsh Snape.
    One way that your story is great is that I felt that Snape stayed in character consistantly. (Even the birthday bit where I think you warned about being OOC didn't really come across that way to me cos it was Harry that initiated the hug)
    A lot of Snape/Harry stories change Snape v quickly into an understanding caring father figure (which can still be good) but I quite like the fact that in yours Snape doesn't get too soft.
    I think I read that JKR said Snape was a anti-hero and a real mixture of bravery and bullying nasty characteristics... not to say I think your version of Snape is that bad - he certainly tries hard to get on with Harry and Harry's friends as the story goes on.

    Author's Response:

    One thing I was really determined to do was keep Snape as much in character as it is possible to do while making him find out he is a father of a boy he has been more than antagonistic towards since he first clapped eyes on him. I am not sure that canon Snape could ever have felt anything other than intense dislike for Harry, despite the fact that he is as much Lily's son as he is JAmes'. But the main reason I wrote this story is that I feel this need to redeem the very unpleasant canon character. But saying that, Snape would never turn into a lovable human being. Harry is learning to love him because he is getting to know him. But Sev is no fluffy bunny and never will be.

    Even knowing what the future chapters are called didn't help the unease that Severus, and Harry must be feeling at the end of this chapter. Nicely done. Yet another thing about Harry for Severus to ponder. On to the next chapter. Thanks for the great read.

    Sorry SHEla. I seemed to miss responding to this. Better late than never to let you know I appreciate your review.

    Hmmmm, that means that he has to go there even this summer… and Snape might not like that idea either, especially if he had any inkling about how Harry is treated there… But he has no idea… at least not yet ; ). That sounds really fun, nice twist. I knew Dursleys would come up eventually, in a way or another. I´m glad it is in this way. Because especially now if Harry goes there, Snape might change his mind about the decision not the tell Harry more. That sounds real intriquing. I sure enjoyed that chappy ; ) I´m looking forward into next chappy!

    Author's Response:

    Hmmm, I wonder why you think Snape has no idea about how Harry is treated at the Dursleys. Don't forget he nursed HArry and saw all the scars on his body.

    Not to mention tht he did get an inkling about how HArry was treated (Though he couldn't have cared less) by some of the things he saw during Occlumency lessons.

    I am glad you are enjoying the story and I hope you continue to do so.

    I'd say SCREW them if I was Harry. Abuse from them doesn't give mean any reason to protect them. Albus and Severus both should know better than send Harry back to the abuse... they are complete bastarts and if I was Harry family or not i wouldn't forgive them. They aren't the one being starved or beaten on after all so i guess it really doesn't matter.

    keep up the good work you know its good when your readers rant and get emotionally involved..

    Author's Response:

    Yes. I do love it when my readers get seriously involved...

     

    Thanks for the review. Unfortunately, Harry hasn't got much choice about returning to the Dursleys. He can be rebellious, yes, but he really isn't stupid. He knows he needs as much protection as he has access to.

     

    But don't worry. The cavalry, is on hand to keep things under control this time.

    Good chapter! I was just starting to wonder when Harry would go back to the Dursleys and now I have my answer. I really hope Snape is the one to drop him off though... that would be very interesting to see have him meet the Dursleys. Keep up the great writing and I look forward tor eading more soon!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks Alexis. Glad you waited patiently for the update.

    Only three more chaps to go though before i run out of finished material. After that, your updates will depend on my muse.

    Next chapter is pure Dursley but you will have to read it to find out who takes Harry. LOL.

    Thank you for your compliments.
