    Ooh! Definitely the wrong time! (;
    That ending was totally unexpected. Does Snape find out about Harry's suicide plans after this escapade? Do they stand and fight, or apparate away? I thought the book was a nice touch. The reference to Ron and Hermione was clever too. Was Gladrags your idea? I don't remember it from the book.
    Oh, is Severus supposed to be angry when Harry touches his arm (not at him obviously), because the 'besides' makes it sound as though he is angry plus something. Do you really mean it like that?

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!  Severus will find out about the suicide plans, but not for a little bit yet.  Glad you liked the book.  No, Gladrags is not my idea...well, I read that there is a store called Gladrags Wizardwear on the HP lexicon, but I made it very prestigious and expensive.  I'm not sure if it really is.  I don't know where it's mentioned in the HP books, but it must be somewhere since it's in the lexicon.

    No, Severus is not angry at all when Harry touches his arm.  He's emotional...maybe a little surprised, but glad and hopeful that Harry is beginning to forgive him and feel more comfortable with him...but Severus is still uncertain about displaying his emotions and he's reserved, and Harry isn't sure what to make of the emotions he can see in Severus' eyes.

    Thanks again!

    This was a wonderful chapter (in spite of the cliffie!) and I loved Harry's birthday present. Why do I get a feeling that Severus and Harry's polyjuice will run out before they can get home? I can hardly wait to find out what happens next.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Yep, I think their cover is about to be busted.  I hope I can get chapter 20 finished soon and update again.

    Lovely chapter of Severus showing Harry the parental attention he has never really had. I loved the book that he got Harry--so appropriate--and what it tells Harry about how Severus is going to treat him the next year. I also liked this little descriptive detail: "Harry smiled as he watched an older couple, holding hands even while they bickered over which shop to visit next and whether the price of an enchanted tea set was too high. He found himself thinking of Ron and Hermione for some reason," Very sweet. And then, when we're about ready to die from the over-consumption of sugar--Voldie appears. Evil woman! ;-)

    Author's Response: Thank you!  I said it before, the 'Wronski book' scene was my favourite part of the chapter, because it was something that Severus did purely for Harry's enjoyment, and it is a clue that Severus will not revert back to his old ways once they're back at school, if Harry picked up on that.  Thanks again!

    Great chapter, evil cliffie. I almost had a heart attack when I read the first line of your Chapter End Notes - that was truly evil. Huzzah for Harry confiding in Severus, and I really like the way you have him consciously struggling to call him Severus, not Snape.

    Author's Response: Thank you, and yes, I think it is rather hard for Harry to start thinking of Severus by his first name after five years of thinking of him as 'Snape'.  It's also a big sign that they're becoming closer and Harry isn't sure he's ready for them to be that close, but he's making an effort, and it's getting a little easier for him.

    oh my gosh what a cliffie! i'm glad you were kidding about the break. this was an intriguing chapter... harry is teetering on the verge of trusting severus... but now DE's are here to throw a monkey wrench into the works!!!

    is harry still going to feel suicidal now that snape is treating him so much better?

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!  Yes, Harry is still suicidal right now.  He is happier than he was at first, but part of that is because he's built up this idea that he'll be able to go be with his parents and Sirius and then everything will be perfect, and until then he just has to make the best of things.  He isn't consciously thinking, "Oh, I'm happier now so I should reconsider the whole suicide thing."  He's just going along until he can be with his 'real' family again.  The idea that he's going to get to be with his family and be free again, hopefully soon, is very ingrained at this point and it's really part of what is helping him to feel better.  He doesn't really have to think about the slavery spell and the impact it's going to have on his whole life as long as he's convinced himself that it's only a temporary situation.

    I realised that may seem to contradict what I said in an earlier response, when I said that the slavery spell is never far from Harry's mind, but what I mean is that Harry hasn't forgotten about the slavery spell, but he's not really having to deal with it because he's decided that he's going to escape it through death and be with his loved ones as soon as possible.

    Thanks again!

    Nice chapter. It's good to see Harry happy. The only mistake was in Sev's eye color while Harry was looking into them. He was still under polyjuice and was blue eyed not black.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Oops, you're right about the eye colour.  I need to go back and fix that.  Thanks!
