    HA! Snape wants essays to grade and be mean to relieve stress! XD That's funny! And it's so cute that Snape doesn't want Harry to think he's 'over' thinking anything. Too cute Sev! And Now Harry's happy. Yay happy Harry! Very good again! I'm off to the next!

    Nice story you've started. I find Harry to be uncommonly perceptive, but that makes him his own individual and your creation. I found his thoughts that Snape took points just because he could (his thinking), rather than because he was out of bounds after curfew a good point. You've got kids thinking down!

    Author's Response:

    Harriverse,

    Thank-you :). Yes, I prefer Harry this way :P. Haha, yeah Snape rather thinks that taking points is something to do on principal rather than with strong reason, unless from Slytherin. What do you mean by "kids thinking down"? I didn't quite get that, but thanks for the review!

    -Mel :)

    Aww, Snape's trying. I like this story a lot! It's humorous, cute, and all the characters are still themselves, so...nicely done, you!

    Author's Response:

    Raven knight,

    Yeah, he is trying lol. I'm happy to hear it. Your comments made me smile :). You say that the characters are still themselves? I'm thrilled! Characterisation is something I try my best at and seems to be most important to be, so thanks a lot!! Thank-you for your reivew!

    Snape does seem to be trying! Good! I really like how you showed Harry's insecurity by having him knocking at Severus' office in the middle of the night, muttering to himself. After all, I don't think Snape should be the only one having doubts about this. Good work!

    -P.G.

    Author's Response:

    P.G,

    Yeah, Snape is trying. Thanks, I adored your comment and you're so right! Snape isn't the only one with doubts but whilst the man is doubting himself, Harry is doubting basically everything. I really wanted to show that. Thanks for the review and your comments!

    I meant parts like "He said, refering to[...]", which readers remotely familiar with Severus' life figure out easily themselves, and the general openness of AD's speech, uncharacteristic for him. One would expect more interplay and mind-games from two wizards such as them. That's why I felt that the first third of the chapter was a bit shallow, even in comparison with the following 2/3. The interaction with Harry turns out to be less predictable, thus more interesting ^^ (I hope you don't mind me leaving reviews that, because I honestly think your fic is nice, if rough, and I hope you keep developing as an author and write more good fic *nodnod*)

    Author's Response:

    DoC brown,

    Thank-you, for more details. I don't mind, no one is perfect and I do wish to improve. Although I do not believe that everyone has read the last Harry Potter book or that are all completly sure of all these details, so just to make sure that everyone is on the same page for these things may or may not be important to the story, I felt the need to add them. Although I do understand where you are coming from and I will try to lessen those things when I can, but sometimes it's just necessary for the story :P. Thanks though, I do like people pointing these things out; now that I'm aware I'll try to prevent it seemingly like I think you're all dumb or something lol. :P

    Aww yay. It's definitely a start. I like that Snape is going to help Harry with his homework. Harry seems like he really needs it.

    I'm looking forward to how the "tutoring" sessions go. It could either be a disaster or help jump start their relationship. Good job.

    Author's Response:

    EllaEleniel,

    Yeah, glad you liked it. Haha, yeah Harry does really need it at this point. And I'm happy to hear those comments although it may be both rather than either. Thanks.

    -Mel :)

    ...You might want to know that the dialogue between AD and SS could do with slightly less input from Captain Obvious >_>;; Your readers are sufficiently smart, methinks.

    Author's Response:

    DoC brown,

    Which parts were you refering to or did you mean the entire conversation from the last chapter? It would be easier to fix or be aware of it you could inform me just which parts you mean. Thanks for the comment though; I do not take my readers to be idiots though, just so you know ;).
