    "Good morning to you, too, Albus. Yes, I did in fact pass away last night, crushed by that bloody snake, no less. To the end, I kept the secret of my duplicity from the Dark Lord. Ironically, he killed me anyway, to get at the Elder Wand."

    "Gee, you can't trust anyone anymore,"


    HA HA!!! So funny :D Keep going, I like it.

    Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! It just killed me that anyone ever trusted Voldemort for anything. The next chapter isn't funny, but we'll get back to humour soon enough.

    Very unique story! I'm really enjoying it, and I have to laugh at the banter between Harry and Snape!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks for your comments! I can't see those two having a serious talk, so it has to be all snarky. There'll be less amusing exchanges between them as Snape takes on more of a mentor role, but for now it's fun to write them bickering.

    Great chapter!
    I love the humor!!!

    Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! Snape is so easy to make fun of. The next chapter is sad, though. But that's life for you. :o)

    I love it. This story is so original, and I can't stop laughing long enough to breathe!

    I'm also working on a post Deathly Hallow story, and I'm having a little difficulty, because there are not alot of models to follow, but yours is brilliant.

    I hope mine turns out as well as yours!


    Poor Harry, being haunted by Snape, of all people. Too funny! Please update soon!

    Author's Response: Thanks for keeping with the story! I thought this chapter WAS pretty funny. Enjoy it for now; the next one is sad. :o( I'm sure your post-DH story will turn out great; it's easier, I think, to write a story set during that time because there isn't much canon to follow. You can just make stuff up, and not worry that your storyline is too close to another author's. Although I still had to do a lot of research, both in the books and on the Lexicon. Thanks for reviewing!

    This is a great, unique idea for a new story and you have gotten off to a great start. I love the unique reason for Snape still being around and we have the hope that it won't be permanent and that he'll be able to move on eventually--after Harry dies, of course. ;-) I also love the high quality of the writing and editing in this story. You know the difference between you're and your! Hooray.

    Author's Response: Thanks for your comments! I don't usually get into Snape, but the muse isn't really interested in my preferences. It's pretty cool that he can give Harry advice for a while, and when everything's knocked back into place, I'll banish him to a portrait. Maybe I'll have one painted to hang in Harry's house, too. I'm glad you found the fic easy to read; there are two many that don't proof there fics on various sights, and accept for a few, your ready to loose you're mind! Thanks for the complements! :o)

    I am not sure if this is funny or sad, but I like it.

    This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

    Author's Response: I'm glad you like it! It's meant to be both funny and sad. People always feel guilty for laughing or feeling happy about anything if there's been a recent tragedy, but that's just how we are. And this is a time of dual emotions for everyone; they're mourning because of the heavy losses, but at the same time, there's this ecstasy at escaping the shadow that's been hanging over everything for so long.

    Great beginning! I like the byplay between Severus & Harry and I was always upset that Severus never had a portrait done when he was Headmaster in the books. I felt that it was as if she just ignored the fact that he was Headmaster because Voldemort had taken over the Ministry.

    Author's Response:

    I felt that way, too; I really don't get how that last school year even carried on, considering the circumstances. I mean, the Ministry's been overthrown, the Carrows are practicing Crucio on the kids in detention . . . but at Malfoy Manor, Narcissa's all, "Oh, let me introduce you to my son, Draco; he's home on his spring break." Like he just blew in from Miami or the South of France.

    Thanks so much for leaving your comments; the next chapter is, I think, even funnier (or at least it was fun to write!), and I'll get that up here in a few days.

    Ok, this sstory shows great promise. I really like the premise and Severus is spot-on. Keep it up!

    Author's Response:

    Despite the emo at the end of DH, I doubt Snape would suddenly drop his snark. And I could never write him if he did. :o) Thanks for your comments!

    This is so cute and so funny!! I love it! Very original. I want to do a post DH story too; there are too few of them. Yours is excellent.

    Can't wait for the next update!

    Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing! Most epilogue stories focus on who marries whom, or the EpiGen kids, but never explain the actual rebuilding. Thanks for your comments; I'll have the next chapter posted soon!

    Great beginning. Neat twist in how Snape came back and really liked the dialogue between Snape and Harry.

    Author's Response: My first review! For once, Harry doesn't have to censor what he says to Snape. Thanks for your comments!
