    Stern strict Snape has a kitten. Dolores Umbridge would be surprised.

    I love the fact that Severus Snape, Greasy Git of the Dungeon has a fluffy white cat named Flurry! Great chapter!

    I'm highly impressed - I think that you've got a wonderful start right away with some interesting explorations of both Dumbledore and Snape. I honestly can't wait to see how this pans out - it has a lot of potential and I'm really looking forward to more.

    Not a huge fan of Snape naming his kitten 'Fluffy' though. Very un-dungeon bat like...then again, you seem to be exploring different facets of these characters so I'll keep an open mind!

    Author's Response: Thanks! You have quite a bit of twists and turns to go, and I hope you like them. Severus' cat is named Flurry, not Fluffy. She's referred to as a fluffy cat which may have gotten you mixed up, and she has her own story that comes out a bit later.

    Great chapter; I loved how you depicted Severus convincing himself that his motives were entirely self-centred. Very curious as to what is going on with Dumbledore. P.S. In England, 'Fall' is called 'Autumn'

    Author's Response: Severus of course had to convince himself it was only for his curiosity. He couldn't possibly want to help Harry after all. Thanks for the tidbit. I try, but it's next to impossible to take the American out of an American.

    Oh, Dumbledore is already annoying me...

    I like that Severus suspects something going on with Harry, though. Not much gets by him, and that's probably a good thing for Harry right now.

    I also liked that he understood that Harry was honestly afraid of him, of being kidnapped, when Severus brought him down to his rooms and that he regretted it. Sev does have a heart after all, no matter how much he tries to hide it!

    Great line about how he would never kidnap Harry cause he didn't want to be haunted by Lily's ghost.

    Author's Response:

    Yes, Dumbledore can be quite annoying. 

    Severus' spy training is definitely a blessing for Harry, especially since we know Harry isn't the type to say something is wrong until it's almost too late.

    As for the "kidnapping," Harry just lost Sirius, and mentally he's just not right after that yet, and of course when a person is like that their moods and reactions tend to be sporadic and extreme. 

    I'm happy to hear you liked that line. I love finding out what lines, paragraphs, and moments really resonated with my readers.

    You're watching Tolkien!?!?! NO FAIR!! I'm stuck studying for a psychology exam :( Oh, but at least you get to enjoy the program. And go ahead and tell Sev I said he was cute, I'm not afraid! *totally bluffing*

    But HA! Harry's acting like a drunk with that potion! *giggles* That must be good stuff. Maybe I could have some...? lol Not, I can't drink that, I need to work...unfortunately *grumble* But that scene was classic Snape! :D Too bad Harry had to go and fall to ruin Snape's threat. HA!

    Aww! Sev's such a sweety, isn't he! A big ol' prikly teady bear! XD I loved the line when he "refused to tuck in James Potter's son" and that whole schpeel. That was great. And HAHAHA! The vampire thing was hilarious! I literally burst out laughing. (good thing my roomate wasn't in ^-^)

    Snape with the kitty was just. so. gosh. darn. CUTE! But I felt so bad when he said that his cat liked Harry more then him...actually, my own cat is kinda like Flurry, but his name's Viktor and he's gray and white, and boy could I use Snape to teach me that de-lint spell!

    And oh no, here comes Dumbles to start something. But I'm with Sev on the lemon tarts. I only really like lemonade and these weird girl scout lemon cookies. But lemon tarts always look so good, but they just never taste good to me...*ramble ramble*

    Oh, and I like the "Potter puzzle" XD Nice aliteration! And now Sev's interested and he's gunna find something out about Harry, and he's gunna start to feel bad for him and he already in a twisted, denile, kinda way likes him, and, and...I'll stop now.

    Sorry for the crzy long review. I'm just trying to hold off on studying for another minute or so. But this was great and I love Snape with his cat! XD So cute! Ten points to you for that!

    Author's Response:

    It wasn't as interesting as I had hoped. *sighs* Not one mention of Legolas or Thranduil the whole hour! It was Frodo this and Frodo that. Yes, I'm biased when it comes to the elves. lol. They're my favorite part of Tolkien's whole mythology. Well at least that meant I didn't have to complain about the "actor" they chose to represent Legolas that way. 

    Good luck on your psych exam. I love psychology, especially abnormal psychology. Although you're probably still on the boring theories and histories. Blah. That's not the fun stuff. ;)

    Harry just can't listen to Snape, even when it comes to something as simple as returning to Gryffindor Tower. lol. I'm sure Snape wasn't amused. I'm glad to hear you literally burst out laughing. Remember that because you'll need Kleenex later on.

    My cat doesn't like anybody. Well, most of the time anyway. Her name is Roxie and she's a very pretty tortoiseshell and white cat, but she's mean and bites. lol. Although, she's become more mellow and actually jealous since we've gotten our puppy. 

    Dumbledore is there to start something though he'll have more to say later on... Sev is interested and you'll be surprised with what he finds.

    Yay, I get ten points! Thanks!

    Aw, Dumble is so... annoying! (keeping it PG-5, heh)

    Author's Response: I think you'll have more to say about him soon...

    Excellent! I love Fluufy, it made me think of Hagrid's 3 headed dog! LOL. I loved the part where you said his tone was as stern as Hagrids, funny! Would write more about the brilliance of this, but I have to read on!

    Author's Response: LOL. I didn't even think of how close Flurry sounds like Fluffy. I'm glad you're enjoying my story!
