    Another fantastic chapter! You've done such a wonderful job of getting into Severus' head and making him understandable, but I still feel so sorry for Harry.

    And what an ending! Well, it'll be interesting to see how McGonagall responds.

    Author's Response:

    Thank you Kristeh.  Coming from you, that is a compliment indeed!  I feel sorry for Harry too!  :)

     As I said to someone else, Harry is in way over his head, and Severus' initial reaction, though harsh, is due to the fact that he has lost so much because of his poor judgement, when he was not much younger than Harry himself.  We all know that Snape is not the most demonstrative person, and much of his anger is really due to his fear for Harry.  He would never admit it though!

    Hmmm...McGonagall's reaction, yes well...I think that she is in shock!  ;)

    I think you've explained Severus initial reaction to Harry's bringing him back very well, and hopefully they can come to some kind of terms, especially since the Dark magic Harry used can be seductive and Severus would know best how to counter it. I think if the two of them are given a chance to spend some time with each other, they will eventually develop an understanding and affection for each other.

    By the way I've just updated Shadows, in case you didn't realize it. :)

    Author's Response:

    Thank you Snapegirl!  It's true that no one knows better than Snape that Dark Magic may seem mysterious and exciting, but it can destroy you.  Harry is going to need Snape's guidance soon, because he is in way over his head.  Snape is at a crossroads now; Voldemort is gone, and the path ahead is unclear to him.  There are so many possibilities in a world where he is free from the Dark Lords control.  Unfortunately, being a father is something that is totally foreign to Snape, and he did not have the best role model.  Then again... Harry doesn't know how to be someone's son either.  Maybe, they will teach each other.

    Oh, thanks for letting me know that you've updated Shadows.  I just got home from work, so I haven't had a chance to read any of the other stories that are posted.  Well, I think I'll mosey right along and read it.  Then you can respond to MY wonderful review!  ;)

    harry is feeling unwanted.its scared.because harry could try injure himself.if minerva or hermione talk to snape about dursleys maybe snape begin understand harry.poor boy he is very desperate

    Author's Response:

    Yes...poor Harry.  Snape's reaction is rather harsh, but dabbling in Dark Magic could have serious consequences for Harry.  Harry is still young, and naive in so many ways, and he just doesn't understand the seriousness of what he's done.

    Eventually, perhaps Snape will discover the difficulties that Harry has endured throughout his young life, and I'm certain that if Snape knew the treatment that Harry suffered at the hands of the Dursley's, particularly his uncle, well...let's just say that I would not want to be the Dursleys!  Snape and Harry have a rocky road ahead of them, but hopefully they will be able to learn to undestand one another.
