    Another great chapter! Harry's reaction was totally expected and not so unlike Severus if you think about it. On top of everything else that's happen to him, finding out Sev was his father just sent Harry over the edge. I love that Snape stayed calm through it all. Very nicely done!

    Poor Harry and Severus.

    Author's Response: It'll get better for them. Harry has the right to be angry and hurt. It's better than him keeping it all locked inside. Thanks, and I hope you enjoy the following chapters.

    Yeah... i gave up. :P I lasted four days without fanfiction. Hahaha.

    Author's Response: Four days is a little more than half a week. ;) That's pretty impressive. I don't know what I'll do when I've exhausted the HP fanfic that interests me. As bad as it sounds, lol, I've already thought about some of the possibilities people may come up with the original novel I'm working on. The storyline I've got figured out should take 3 or 4 books, and I already know that like the first thing I'll do after I finish them if they're published and hopefully somewhat popular, is read the fanfic as a result of them. lol.

    Great Great Great chapter (and story? I swear I reviewed this..)

    Author's Response: Thanks! I don't think you had reviewed this chapter at least. I'm not sure though as sometimes it's hard to keep track. lol. ;)

    Loved it. Yes, I'm still reading. :) I think I might have skipped some chapters because I was trying to find the last chapter I reviewed here and I couldn't find it! I was sure that I reviewed this chapter before... I will have to go back and reread previous chapters and find out what I missed. I also think that I have been reading it on fanfiction.net. LOL I know I shouldn't but I check the C2 communities more than the Recent page here. Well in any case, I have to apologize for not leaving many reviews here for you. I will probably reread the story at a later date and review every chapter again. ;)

    I am hoping for more angst and arguments. I think that Severus is being remarkably patient caring for his son.

    Harry is great. Great turmoil. I liked how much of a teenager he is being.

    I am a little worried for Severus. I think that he should make sure that he has a break away from Harry at least once a day.

    Thanks for all the updates! This is a great story.

    Author's Response:

    I admire your efforts to stay away from fanfiction even if you didn't achieve your goal. :) I think the last chapter you reviewed was way back, though I could be wrong. I'm also guilty of reading things on fanfiction.net. LOL. I just usually go to that website first because of my web browsing routine that doesn't feel right if I don't do it in a certain order. LOL. I know, I'm a tad bit OCD. 

    There will definitely be more angst and arguments ahead. Sev is being incredibly patient. I think he knows he has to be the adult and father in the situation if he wants it to work out and be the best for Harry.

    We as writers sometimes forget that Harry is a teenager and should act as such. I'm happy to hear you've noticed that since I've been trying to keep Harry acting his age.

    I agree that Severus should make sure he has a break from Harry at least once a day. Try telling him that though. He's being quite protective at the moment, and I think it'll get better for both of them once this first week of chemo is over. Thanks again!

    please write more. soon. i really like the story and i'm not a patient person...

    Author's Response: I've started the next chapter, but I'm not sure when it'll be finished. I have grad school applications to complete and my classes this semester actually require me to read and write, so I have things that must be done before I get to work on this. I hope you understand that as a student who works, my free time is limited.

    In away I expected him to be worse and then a bit more quiet...but I liked what happened, it felt real.
    I hope Harry starts to forgive Severus, and that they get close and take Dumbledore down lol!
    I wish snow for you....though just a bit too much would be bad, or so I've heard.

    Author's Response: It's sometimes easy to forget that Harry is just a teenager prone to teenage outbursts much like a toddler's tantrum. It's easy to imagine any normal teenager yelling at his dad through a closed door. I'm sure Harry will come around once he fully processes the information. He doesn't have much strength to put up much of a fight either. Maybe they'll both take Dumbledore down, but I have a feeling Sev is kinda protecting Harry from anything that doesn't concern his health and getting better at the moment, so Harry may never know the full extent of everything Dumbledore has done.

    Thanks for the response to my review. :) I have been following your story, I just haven't been able to read as much as I'd like. I am going to try to stay away from fanfiction for a month or two to see if I can do it, so don't be surprised if you don't see any reviews from me for awhile. :) Keep writing though! I would read them as soon as they came out otherwise.

    Author's Response: Wow, I could never even think of challenging myself to stay away from fanfiction for a month or two. I guess then I could actually read the real books I've been meaning to get to, but yeah that would never work. lol.

    Plenty of snow if you want it! I liked Harry's reaction I was afraid it would be fluffy and cuddly and Harry has a right to be angry, Severus' choices has meant that harry had a rotten time. As for Dumbledore Severus should hex him so he is out of it for a couple of years. Thank you for updating

    Author's Response:

    Yay! Thanks for snow! Unfortunately, it just melted right away. I guess that's good though since the Mardi Gras parades are getting ready to roll for like the next 3 weeks. 

    I couldn't have Harry's reaction be fluffy and cuddly. It would be too unbelievable. It's good that Harry's expressing his emotions now, so when he does come around their new familial relationship can start on a somewhat clean slate without fear that Harry's repressed feelings would come out later. Thanks!
