I really liked the way Percy acted with Ron, it makes sense that he'd be worried, and feel responsible. Looking forward to the Quidditch game :D
Author's Response: I made Percy react the way my older brother would have if I'd done something like that, after all the Weasleys are a close knit family and I'm sure that they all love each other a lot and it's always the job of the older sibling to look out for the younger ones. Quidditch is coming!

ironic how much severus and harry are alike. Apparently Snape expects Harry to come ask for help (somethign Harry is hardly capable of) but he himself gets to refuse help and pretend he doesn't need anyone. good thing Minerva didn't fall for it! Go Min! Its kinda cute, her taking care of Snape. Perhaps if Severus could be shown that he is holding harry to a standard he himself is not keeping, he might be a bit easier on the boy. Or at least explain to him why his life matters instead of just yelling away.
Author's Response: They are both products of their childhoods, unfortunately, where the only person they could rely on was themselves. Minerva knows this and perhaps with a few hints, Severus might also come to recognize that he and Harry are alike in that regard. They obviously had a lot more to discuss in the office that Harry doesn't know about. And while he might scold Harry at first, he could also talk to him afterwards and explain how scared he was that Harry had knowingly risked his life, which is so very precious.

I felt bad for Hermione here. It's really hard being smart in school, you either a nerd or a geek and people use you to get better grades. I'm glad Harry was going to defend her, the fight was great as was Snape's comments afterwards. But uh oh, is Harry in big trouble, or what? I think Snape might take his broom away.
Author's Response: yes, i used to be one of those smart people, so I know where you're coming from. Snape taking his broom away . . .could be.

I loved it! Especially when the boys were more afraid of Snape then the troll! Hilarious. And how Harry defeated it. "Death by cauldron!" I cracked up. But Severus was right to give them detention and I think Harry's in for a long lecture and probably a smack too for scaring Severus to death like that. Oh and I loved the Sev/ Minerva conversation too!
Author's Response: he may be, definitely for a lecture, the smack, well we'll see. Severus and Minerva really cracked me up when I wrote that bit about her grabbing him by the ear. And you have to admit an angry Snape is scary!!
