    I love how shocked Severus was when he found out that everyone thinks Harry is dead, lol, and his scuffle with Sirius was quite nice. It's very ironic that Sirius knows what's going on and no one believes him. I'm excited to see what Harry has to say about Severus wanting for him to "remain dead." Great chapter!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response: I am a HUGE fan of irony. ^-^ And Harry will have some things to say about being 'dead'. lol Glad you liked the scuffle too! I just kinda added that in because I thought it was fun! ^-^ Thanks for another nice review!

    WOW! Each and every one of your chapters keep getting better and better. They are well thought out and executed beautifully. In this story, I really love how you have Sirus getting whipped by Sev, serves him right!

    Now here's a thought, I know it is very common and some say expected to make Ron to be dumb, cowardly, spiteful and mean. Well, in the books, he was loyal, brave, stratigically smart(chess is not a game for whimps)and a very good friend. Please do not debase his character like some others do.

    Author's Response:

    Have I made Ron stupid so far? I didn't think I did. I don't like a "cowardly" Ron either. How would he have gotten in Gryffindor then? I know what you mean though. I always wondered why in the movies they made him stupid. And people that have never read the books and just watched the movies always base him off of that and his character is distorted. I have no intention of making me movie canon. No worries there.

    And thanks so much! What a lovely compliment!! ^-^ Makes up for the crappy class I just got done with. lol And I'm glad that you're enjoying my story. I've had the majority of it planned out for a long time, so I'm glad you like it! Thanks again! :D

    Aw, you poor dear!!! I'm so sorry that you're sick, but am amazed that you wrote such a brilliant chappie especially since you are so ill.

    OMG!!! I don't know who I feel worse for, the Weasleys, Hermione or Harry himself!!! How shocking.

    What a temper our favourite Potions Master has, doesn't he? I wish that Harry could relieve his friend's pain and tell them that he's alive.

    I'm really beginning to like that Mrs. Cadogan. She's too cute; wanting to play poker with Harry, the minute that Severus is gone.

    Author's Response:

    lol That's Mrs. Cadogan...lol Yeah, been sick since Friday, and still feel kinda crappy. :( But, being sick gives me time to write and tell everyone to leave me alone and I have an excuse! ^-^ I think I'll live *drama queen* lol And yes, Sev+temper/ Siriusx Dumbledore= NOT GOOD!! (you like my math? some people say I'm not good at it! lol) And don't fret too much about the whole "HARRY'S DEAD!!!!!" thing. Things will get better. :) And I'm so glad you liked the chapter, and thanks again for reviewing!! ^-^

    Aww, wow. I can't really imagine getting news like that, seriously. Poor Ron, and Hermione, and Ginny, and everybody. That's news no one wants to give their children, that their friend is dead. But we knew they had to do it eventually. Still...ouch.

    Snape would so be able to tell if Harry were daydreaming or not. And if caught, he definitely would make him sit some more.

    Aww, again. Love Harry's request for a walk with Mrs. Cadogan. But what made it? Severus smiling. Aww...

    I really don't know why, but the comparison of the English vs. Welsh and Severus vs. James & Sirius, struck me as a very interesting comparison. I had to point it out. I don't even know why I liked it so much...It was very interesting.

    Is that spoon thing true? I think I read something about that, but really? Is that how it works? Cause that is pretty cool!

    A thought hit me while reading this this time about that whole Peter thing. Did you choose Peter because when you say it, it has a striking similarity to Potter? I can see how that would work. Just a thought. Is that why you chose Peter? It would make sense since Severus usually calls Harry, "Potter," anyways. Just thought of that...

    HA! Poker! *laughs out loud!*

    How does Dumbledore know he's not with the Dursleys? Other than the house burning down? Does he know that Severus took him? See? I'm as nervous as Severus! I do like how you made Severus shift the blame to Dumbledore. Nice!

    Sometimes I like Sirius, and other times...yeah...like this one. Jerk! I was glad that Severus basically beat the crap out of him. Muhahaha!

    Oh dear, poor Harry. Now he knows another reason why he can't contact anyone. That would psych everyone out! Harry writing letters from beyond the grave! Whoa! *giggles*

    Typo Alerts: "...she had glanced at her father’s newspaper wrack..." I'm pretty sure it should be spelled "rack." ""But I know that you are all wondering about the meeting your mum and I the other day.”" A phrase or word is missing between "your mum and I" and "the other day." Something needs to be there like, "had", "were at" or "attended." Those would work well. "Why had she ever subscribed to the Daily Prophet?" Do you mean "ever" or "never?" DOes she get the Daily Prophet? "Harry had gripped and complained..." Should be "griped" not "gripped." "He was only giving Harry rules similar to those that he gave his Slytherin." Makes "Slytherin" plural. "...after the Dark Lord’s fall, left Severus hurting social…like always." Should be "socially." "...new blue jeans, some that actually hit his frame..." "hit" should be changed to "fit." (I read it and had a rather comical image of a pair of jeans smacking Harry as he tried to struggle into them.) "...there were some strains that fell in his eyes." Change "strains" to "strands." "“No much, sir,” Severus lied." Should be "not." "...Headmaster commanded, none to gently." Change to "too." You say complement several times when it should be "compliment." E.g. "Again, taken back by the unexpected complement, if a complement it really was..." "...binding over backwards to protect Potter’s miserable life..." Should be "bending."

    Author's Response: Yay for long reviews!! lol Ahem: first off, yes, the spoon thing is true. I happen to own a Welsh Love Spoon...and I want MORE!! sorry bout that...and Peter/Potter....heehee, yeah, that's why Sev kept it. You caught me! Yay you!! And Dumbledore was in the house when Petunia left and told Harry that they'd be back, 'member? Huh? lol No, it's okay. It's been a while since I worked on this one. *sorry!* And I'm glad you liked the whole Wales vs England, Sev vs Sirius and James thing. I rather liked that too, and it's true, really. The Welsh were a bit...standoffish when we met some of the locals because our tourguide was English. lol Coach driver was Welsh though...*shrugs* But thanks again for another review! It's so good to hear from you!! ^-^

    It's okay! Apology not needed as long as you remembered :D
    School yes it's such a bother at times lol! And sick :( seems everyone is falling ill lately my friend as well, he had a fever missed two days of school, he's bumed that he couldn't turn in his work.
    I've never had a baby sitter in my life, well only once but my mom went to the hospital so I don't think that counted. >_> Are baby sitter's that boring? Or like Mrs. Cadogan? :P
    Sirius is really the way I imagine him, rash and very Griffyndor lol!
    I hope Harry doesn't fall into a panic because of it, but then again if he did I wouldn't blame him.
    Also last thing, many writes have mentioned something about a prompt fest...what's that?

    Author's Response:

    LOL thanks. I'm not too sure what babysitters are like. I've just always had my grandma and grandpa look after me. ^-^ Or I've just stayed alone...but Mrs. Cadogan is loosly based off of my other grandma. hehe! And thanks! Sirius is just...cranky right now. lol

    And the prompt fest is were there are different prompts that you can look at on the home page and pick like two of them and then write a story using them. There's a whole big schpeel about it on the homepage. You'll find it! ^-^ And don't worry, I just found out about it like a week ago! too! Thanks again for the nice review!!
