    Right at the beginning, Harry's shifting thoughts about himself, James, and Severus are all interesting.

    Oh, they took a step backwards, pretty much. Poor Snape and Harry. I can see though how Snape is trying to not let himself get too close to Harry for both their sakes, but still. They both know they need that connection...*sigh*

    The potion is an interesting idea. Hope he eventually makes it. Hope Dumbledore doesn't discourage him from taking this step. But! The best part of this chapter? When Harry's nightmare and the pain in his scar mirrored the pain in Severus's Dark Mark. Both of them are equally as effected by good old Voldemort's "mark." That is an interesting connection between them. Nice!

    Do continue!

    Raven Knight,

    *Gives chocolate frog*.

    I'm happy to find that you think they're interesting, I wasn't sure if it would all fit but I think it did in the end, how they both seemed to have simular ideas about deceiving appearances. Yup, two steps forward and one step back in some sense. They aren't sure that they need it yet but they both sure do want it! Snape is having a traditional Slytherin "preservance" moment. *sighs as well*.

    I wasn't sure about the potion making sense, but thanks...I hoped it would be a good idea. I doubt Dumbledore wouldn't encourage it. Sure he is a spy but the blood wards for Harry would still apply here and they can work around the other issues (like Death Eater meetings etc). Yeah, glad you liked their connection, I thought it was something people seemed to slip past their notice at times...how they have that connection as well. Thanks!

    Oh that was beautiful. I loved Snape's thoughts on "why not". I hope that he at least decides to go through with the potion.

    I only hope that both of them can finally have what they so desperately desire...a family.

    I'm really looking forward to the next chapter.

    Author's Response:

    Pandora,

    I'm pleased to see that you think so. Yeah, Snape's thoughts were the main idea for the chapter. The potion however..well you'll have to wait and see, sorry. They will come around to considering the other as family, but it's not an easy thing for them to do. Thanks.

    -Mel :)
