    Most amusing, however, how can a teacher (Sinestra) get away with her behavior? Unlike Snape what reason would Dumbledore have for keeping such a person on the payroll?

    Author's Response: That would be a good point, if this were a normal school, but let's face it: Dumbledore SUCKS at hiring, and nobody seems to do anything about it. (Quirrell, Lockhart, Trelawney (yes she's a seer, but she's otherwise a total fraud, and Dumbledore didn't have to HIRE her), Crouch Jr., Umbrage...) I figure I'm just continuing the trend. My sister actually pointed out that Snape was the only DDA teacher that did NOT attack Harry at some point - and that only holds if you count that Harry attacked HIM in the sixth book, not the other way around. Bad, bad, record. :0) I do appreciate the comment, however. You're right that Sinestra SHOULDN'T get away with her behavior. :0)

    All that one could ask for really: bizarre powers from Harry, Snape hanging on by his fingernails trying to cope, and some great dialogue. A very fun chapter. It's great that Harry is growing-- he's aware that he doesn't need to flee Snape, that their exchanges are teasing (and teasing has serious limits), etc.

    Author's Response: :0)Yey!! Glad you liked it!!

    I'm impressed that Snape got that much out of our boy.

    Great chapter.

    Yay new chapter! i've missed this :D loved how Harry actually had a conversation with Severus at the end there, and his climbing the wall made me laugh, you do come up with the most random forms of unusual magic for him lol :)

    Author's Response: Yay! glad you liked it. Yeah I figure, if I could just 'mess' with magic, I would do it all the time, and I'm not a foolhardy 11-year-old boy, and so I decided incorporating some randomness would be good. :0)

    I didn't know that Sinistra is so stupid .

    Author's Response: LOL she is an idiot, isn't she? We didn't 'meet' her really, in canon, so I felt free to play fast and loose with who she was. Hope you liked :0)

    I was so pleased to see an update. I forgot that you had said the next one might be a while and I thought I might have missed a few chapters along the way. I had to check my reviews. LOL.

    Well, progress was made here certainly, but Harry is not going to go down without a fight, is he? severus is so patient with him. I loved the way he became so scared when Harry came down the wall head first.

    Loved the coloured hair and then changing it to un-naturally blonde. Inspirational! LOL.

    And Blaise was right about Hermione, I feel. She just has to know what's going on to be a sticky beak. She has to know that there is nothing she can do that Snape isn't already doing. Still...she's only eleven, Lesley. Actually, she is twelve... her birthday is in September and she is 10 and a half months older than Harry. (if you are going by canon dates.)

    Loved the note and Sev's additions. You are so clever with Snape snide. LOL.

    Now I know why Sinestra is so down on Harry. His language is such that he might once have worked on the wharves! Still, Sinestra is not much better and she is 'the teacher'! So, she is a Malfoy worshipper, huh? She is truly pathetic... to make apsersions about Theo whose father is a DE, but lick Lucius' boots when it is common knowledge he is too.

    I like it best when Harry is just being a normal kid... being excited about something, like getting out of the 'talk' early.

    Wonderful chapter and much appreciated Rhiannan. Love that name BTW... is it your real name?

    Lesley~

    Author's Response: Yey!!! Wonderful to hear from you, Lesley, and sorry again for the wait. Glad you like the chapter, especially the bit w/ Sinestra. That was the bit I was least sure of for some reason. :0) And yes, that is my real name. It was supposed to be 'Rhiannon' after the song by Fleetwood Mac, which was it turn named after a Celtic fertility/great-mother goddess, if you care. My mom didn't have the album in the delivery room, and spelled it wrong. oops. :0)

    aw! Harry talked to Snapers! And I can't wait to see the detention! Love this story, hope you update semi-quickly this time. I know, I know, class, but... Try?

    Author's Response: :0) I'll try. Haven't started it yet, unfortunately, but I'll start real soon and then I'll try. Glad you liked the chapter! :0)
