Mardi Gras is such a fun time of year, isn't it? My university is so stupid when it comes to it. We have Fat Tuesday off, but not the Lundi Gras, the day before Tuesday, whatever you wish to call it. It doesn't make sense at all, but usually most professors decide to have a "library or conference day" scheduled for that day. 

Yay, I'm happy to hear you love the howlers. Molly isn't the type of person to just let something go, and I thought it was a funny light element to throw in.

I'm sure Harry will find it in his heart to forgive Severus, but it was quite a shock to him and shattered his dreams a bit. Severus won't give up trying to get through to Harry. He understands the feelings Harry is experiencing and feels like he should've done something to ensure a situation like this didn't happen. Thanks! 

Don't worry, Albus will be feeling attacked for quite a while. Harry feel abandoned and of course naturally he'll blame Severus at first even though it's not all his fault. He'll have to come to terms with the fact that maybe what Severus did was for his own good. Of course right now, it's hard for Harry to sympathize with Sev when Sev himself doesn't have any of the necessary tangible memories to express the feelings he was experiencing at the time.

Harry should've told Severus about the attack. In his mind, Harry feels betrayed and hurt which is superseding anything else at the moment. He's also angry about Severus going against his wishes concerning his chemo treatments, and in a way he's thinking that if he were to mention the vision it might mean more painful tests or medicines that don't work. Thanks!
