That was a terrific chapter. I loved the intellectual way in which Severus shared the news with Harry. His warmth with Harry was moving. Snape’s hard line approach to Dumbledore was refreshing and had me cheering.

Great writing. I liked Snape being protective of Harry. I was a little disapointed at the way Dumbledore appears in the story... Dumbledore is extremely intelligent and knowledgeable and kind, I don't think he'd have let Harry stay in that abusive of a condition. Especially if Minerva or Poppy had anything to do with it----or even Snape for that matter. Dumbledore trusted Snape a lot, so it would make sense for him to go along with the "Harry is abused and neglected" thing. In addition to that, Dumbledore knew that Snape was abused (and his mum) when he was younger, so surely he wouldn't have ignored Snape, no matter what the greater good would have turned out.
Other than that, I really like this story. I just wanted to peek at it and see what it was about, and now i'm on chapter 7! Oops! I'm really nervous now about Harry's changing appearance. Does he look completely different? Or are the glamours he had not so bad? The way the kids will react once school begins....oi! Or Ron!
dahm that was good Dumbldore defintly deserved that
and intersting way to tell harry and he took it well weird ot conside that harry is now harry snape it just sounds wierd
I'm rereading this, it's really a great chapter. I love Severus blackmailing Dumble for Harry's sake! Mila
Author's Response: I'm going to have to reread the whole thing myself, just to see if I managed to catch everything I had planned to! Enjoy the re-read.

Right, very good on callingout Dumbledore. I am not sure they should stay, but, I guess the storyline calls for it.
Looking forward to more.
