    I enjoyed this chapter, even if the 1st part with Dumbledore was a bit much.
    I enjoyed the part where Wood and Harry had detention : Oliver will probably spread tales that Snape is horrible to Harry, while he is nice and caring with him (he just has a snape-ish way of expressing love...)

    Author's Response: I like how you put it: a Snape-ish way of expressing love. That's it exactly! :)

    I still adore this story. The shopping scene was as hilarious as it was the first time I read it.

    Author's Response: LOL! I'm really glad you liked it. :)

    Oh the hilarity!!! I can just see Severus having to hold still wile people paw his hair. I love the way Harry thinks Severus is being much more paternal than Severus thinks he is being. Wonderful!! Please update very very very very soon!

    Author's Response: I know - and can you think of anything Sev would hate more than having people discuss his hair care needs over his head? Hee hee hee! And I'm glad to hear you like how Harry and Severus' two different viewpoints set off so much confusion. :)

    Oh, a most excellent and fun to read chapter! Severus' detention for Oliver was perfectly appropriate. I can just see his face when Sev threatened to move Harry to the Slytherin team and I know that our dear Potions Master enjoyed the sight of it immensely. I truly love what you're doing with this story (as I did the prequel) and look forward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response: Thank you very, very much! I wanted the detention to be appropriate, just as you say (and even if Wood was convinced it was sheer torture!), so it's great to hear it succeeded. :)

    Severus being driven demented by Albus on the shopping trip was hilarious.

    Author's Response: Thanks! I loathe and despise shopping, and I imagined Severus would too, while Albus would (I think) be a very happy shopaholic. The idea came to me after a shopping excursion with a friend who is like Albus (except without the lemon drops), and I was going stark raving mad at the end! Glad to hear I communicated that through Severus' torment. :)

    Wonderful story. Watching Harry learn what love means is beautiful. How are his classmates going to adapt to this new arrangement?

    Author's Response: Thank you for your review!  You have completely identified what I have hoped to achieve - writing a story about how Harry (and Severus) are learning what love means. :)

    OMG, i LOVE this fic. severus arguing with the fat lady, demanding that the gryffindors "produce potter," the ridiculously cascading misunderstanding in the infirmary, and the conversation between harry and big bad i-don't-want-to-be-your-guardian-yes snape. i wasn't sure when i read the fic summary if i would be interested (it is a little weak), but i'm so glad i decided to read a little. the first two chapters were good but this chapter puts it on another plane of fiction. absolute rating of 10, nothing less. keep up the good work!

    Author's Response: Thank you! Wow - I'm really delighted you enjoyed the story so much! I hope subsequent chapters continue to please. :)

    Oh, you had me in tears at the end of this one. When Harry whispered "Mummy." I couln't not cry. But they were good tears. My mum passed away ten years ago and shortly after her passing I opened a box that had some of her sweaters and one of her dresses in it. I put on her pink and black fair isle sweater and it felt like she was hugging me again. Your chapter brought that memory back to me like I was there again. Thank you for that gift.

    I love how Severus is rationalizing his responses to Harry. For someone who can tell if others are lying with such accuracy, he's certainly trying hard to lie to himself, isn't he? Of course, he's not comfortable with the way he's feeling and he certainly feels out of control so it's not surprising that he doens't want to be honest with himself at this time. But Arthur is right; Sev is a wonderful Dad already.

    I also enjoyed the bickering and name-calling that Molly and Sev indulged in while they were in the kitchen.

    And Harry was just adorable. I love the way he's blossoming under Sev's care though it is very obvious that he has a long way to go when it comes to dealing with the issues the Dursleys left him with.

    Anyway, now that I've talked your ear off (probably worse than Hermione would) let me kust say that this was really, really good.

    Author's Response: Thank you! What a great compliment to hear that my words moved you to tears! :) I'm also very honored to have helped you remember your own memory of your mom. As I'm sure you guessed, a similar thing happened to me in real life with my grandfather's things... such powerful emotions, albeit a touch bittersweet. :)

    Fantastic chapter! You had me teary eyed at the end there. ;)
