    Why can't Snape & Poppy BOTH be his guardians? She could watch Harry when everybody is teaching anyway.

    Author's Response: Well, she'll be doing a fair bit of watching him anyway. All the teachers will get their chance with him. Thanks for the review.

    I like this fic so far. Nice explanation for why Severus would wind up guardian of Harry, also nice exposition of Sev 's change of heart. I can understand that the bad scenes would be really hard to write. I particularly liked the teddy bear scene. I can really see this happening, a burst of accidental magic against Dudley triggering rage from the Dursleys and a hardening of their hearts toward their nephew that slowly escalates into sustained, appalling abuse. I appreciate that you put the effort into making the Dursley's abuse believable - obviously I'm not saying it's JUSTIFIED in any way, but with what we know of their characters from the books, your scenario is very plausible. Makes the story much better than many others which just sketch the Dursleys as arbitrarily cruel cardboard cutouts.

    Really looking forward to seeing Severus and Harry interact in the next few chapters.

    Author's Response:

    That's what I wanted to do. They hated him from the beginning, and they named him Freak, but they never hit him. They ignored him. They still probably would have sent him to school as well, they didn't really care if he would be confused about the name change either. Then they saw the magic harm their son and not only did it scare them, but it angered them as well, and it didn't go away. The more Harry grew upset and scared, the more the magic came out. So it made the situation worse. Just lucky Severus found out exactly what was happening to Harry.

    Thanks for the review.

    Why has nobody reviewed yet???

    That little boy has a name, Dudley; it's Harry! Oh, I hope Severus teaches those Dursleys a lesson.

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review. Dudley can't really be blamed for not understanding though, he's only five. Petunia and Vernon are blamed though and they will pay.
