    Aww. Cute ending! Great story.
    This was a fantastic description: 'made his body plunge downwards, the long strands of his pale hair, which caught the sunlight, stood on end, framing his head like a glittering halo.' LOL!! I would so LOVE to see the actors, particularly Jason Isaacs acting this scene out! It would be brilliant to watch on a big screen don't ya think? x

    Author's Response:

    Aw thanks.

     

    It's funny that you should say that, because I was picturing him in my mind with his golden hair straight up like that, while his broom lost gravity. I would just love to see it really played out on the big screen too. Love Jason Isaacs as Lucius.

    Yays! Love the ending! You kept Snape Snape while softening him a bit to make him a passable dad! Nice work!

    Author's Response: Oh, thank you.  I like a snarky Snape!! Yeah, I think that he cares deeply for Harry, but I didn't want to change his whole personality. Thank you!

    Awww! ^_^ What a nice ending to an enjoyable story. I loved the interaction and humor, and how, after some bumps in the road, Severus and Harry’s relationship finally improved. Seems Dumbledore’s annoying pushing paid off!

    I also love how things worked out for Neville and Ron. Remus is a great mentor and Ron no longer feels shadowed by his brothers. And the Malfoys got a sound butt-kicking! *cheers*

    Author's Response:

    Thank you.  Sometimes Dumbledore's meddling does come in handy!  Sev and Harry needed each other, but didn't know it, they just needed a little shove in the right direction.

     

    I really thought that Remus and Neville were a good match, because Neville needs someone who is soft-spoken and patient, and Remus filts the bill, and Ron needed some one-on-one time with his dad.  He's always lost in the crowd; the poor boy.

     

    Yeah, the Malfoy's needed to be put in their place.

    Aww, what a sweet end to a great story! I like how at first they didn't want to go to the Parents Day and then ended up going because of sneaky Albus and it turned out they actually got closer and enjoyed themselves. I especialy liked when Severus comforted Harry after the dueling--my husband tends to get emotional over sports too and once he made my son cry because of something he said about the way he played soccer. Men and sports! It's like a disease.

    Author's Response:

    Thanks. My son plays hockey, and you wouldn't believe some of the hockey parents, and how hard they are on their kids if they don't perform according to their standards!

     

    It took a little time, but I think that Harry and Severus got caught up in the emotions of the contest and came to somewhat of an understanding.

    It's great that Neville has a father figure now and Harry's got his very own Git (I liked that place:)

    Author's Response: Yeah, I don't know what made me think of Neville. It just popped into my head that Neville needed someone, and I thought that Remus was a perfect match for him.  Hee he.  Harry and his git!  Don't they make a good match too. LOL! ;)

    Really nice - especially the ending. It captured the tone of Harry and Severus' relationship very nicely. Great story!

    Author's Response: Thank you. I hope that it wasn't too rushed, but I think that being thrown together in such close proximity like that made the forced interaction push them further along than they would be normally.

    Yay! They won! And I liked how Remus and Neville got along too and how Lucius scolded Draco. It can't be easy having THAT one for a dad either.

    I like how Harry realized that Snape was a complex man but that didn't mean they couldn;t get along and love each other. The dinner was priceless! I laughed really hard. Loved the end too!

    Author's Response:

    Hee hee.  Harry sure turned the tables on Draco, didn't he?  Lucius would be tough father to have also.  Perhaps even more cruel than Snape when he feels he's embarrassed.  Lucius is all about show and snobbery.  He wouldn't like being shown up or humiliated, now would he?

     

    Yes, Snape is a complex man, and it will be a tough road for both of them to let go of old animosities, but it's doable, if they both make an effort.

     

    I really enjoyed writing the dinner scene.  That they can actually laugh and joke with each other, is a testament to how they're finally becoming more comfortable with each other  Relationships take time to foster, and a lot of hard work.

    Author's Response:

    Well it just "called" to me JM.  It was a great idea!  Oh, and happy birthday.  I hope I lived up to the challenge. Thanks for the hugs and kisses, and right back at you. 

     

    Have a great birthday.  :)

    Aww, just, aww. I love this so much! It's so sweet and poignant in parts. My favourite part was when Severus went to go and fetch Harry from the dorm and their interactions from that point on - in character and still wonderful to read (And so sweet!). I like your take on getting-Harry-away-from-the-Dursleys (and that Dumbledore made Vernon quiver in fear!

    Haha! Bitter defeat serves Malfoy right for gloating and then cheating on top of everything! Yay for Dumbledore's meddling and his brilliant idea for an annual Father-Son day! Great last line and great fic!

    Author's Response:

    Oh, thank you so much.  I think that that was a turning point for Harry and Severus.  Severus had to swallow his pride and admit his mistake. That's not an easy feat for our beloved snarkey Potions Master! He's never wrong, after all (at least in HIS mind!)  I just love the idea of the "Only Wizard that Voldemort ever Feared" making that bully Vernon quake in his shoes.  Of course, having Snape do it would have been even more fun, but it could still happen...LOL!

     

    Yeah, those Malfoys got theirs in the end, didn't they?  I think that Harry and Severus appreciate DD's intereference now, and they don't mind so much now.

    Aw, that was sweet. Severus stayed in character for the most part and I loved all of the reactions when Harry announced his Sorting Hat experience. Nice work!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: Thank you.  I had fun writing that little interaction.  Snape can be a git, but Harry will soften him up.
