    This chapter felt like a lull before the storm.

    I'm curious to see if Pomfrey can help Harry at all, when she doesn't know about his back. I really hope it doesn't get infected or something, poor dear. :-(

    I gotta sleep now, but I'll finish the rest tomorrow! :D

    Author's Response:

    Yeah... imagine that... his back, getting infected... that would be awful wouldn’t it...

    But it’s not like I’d ever be mean to Harry...

    ^^

    It's awfully hypocritical of Umbridge to not punish Ron for calling her names when she's trying so hard to reign in her class, particularly Harry. I hope they find something wrong with him at the infirmary so he doesn't have to go to detention tonight.

    -P.G.

    Author's Response:

    Hey, yeah I suppose it is but then she has got her eye firmly on Harry, she really couldnt have cared less about Ron who holds no political sway whatsoever.  Heh, ah, but what if he wants to go?  (well, no wants... oh, you'll see ^-^)

    have fun x

    I have only just thought to ask what your title means? Antonomasia? I like to think I have a reasonable vocabulary, but I have not heard this word before, now is it in any of my dictionaries. So I can only assume that it is a made up word.

    I have reached the end of what you ahve uploaded and I can only say that I am pleased in a way because I can get my second wind and prepare for more horrors.

    Snape noticing that Harry was far from optimum still only brought out nastiness and threats. Such a stellar human being.

    And I am still waiting to see what that potion might be doing to Harry as all his symptoms can be attributed to his physical injuries and his maundering to his less than satisfactory life.

    Still, I am looking forward to more... especially to Snape waking up to exactly what Harry is enduring (though he has demonstrated that he very well could applaud Umbridge's torture, even though he stops short of physical toture himself. Though he seemed to relish Harry's gasps of pain in his first detention even if he dismissed Harry early, he did not check to see what was paining the boy.)

    I do wonder about Harry going to the hospital wing. surely he doesn't want Madam Pomfrey to see his injuries.

    Well, I will say it. Please update ASAP.

    Author's Response:

    Oh!  You're the first one to ask!  Thank you! - Funnily enough I've tried to put it into words and failed miserably but I suggest wikipedia if you want to know for sure (I was going from page to page of huge, strange words - what I do in my spare time... you cant prove Im a nerd! ^^ - and found it and wrote around the title ^^  It's sort of like a persons name as opposed to their title.  I think they use Napoleon as an example.  Even though he had a ton of titles, his name was Napoleon.  Reminded me of Just Harry you know? ^^

    Hey, even if Im wrong Im very glad I got you looking for it ^^ Isnt reading dictionaries fun? (NOT A NERD! XD)

    Oh good, yes, very good idea.  Breathe in.  And out.  And in.  ^^ Yeah, this isnt the easiest fic to read is it?  No wonder I had to write Impossible, it was probably more for my own sanity after all ^^.

    Hahaha, loved the way you said that.  Yes, Snape the stellar human being.  Isnt that how everyone knows him? ^^ Still, had to make him... Snapish ^^

    Ah the potion... yes, you are right.  His syptoms can all be explained.  But then, what about the feeling he'll occasionally get?  Dont worry, you'll find out ^^

    Hehe, I dont think Snape knew they were gasps of pain so much as Harry being melodramatic, but I know what you mean, he's been a little... less than supportive of our boy hero.  Well, we'll find out exactly what he thinks of Umbridge's methods very soon, and i think you'll be surprised by just how anti-Umbridge he can be ^^

    And Harry's acquiescence, well, he doesnt want to be 'found out' but really, who wouldnt be feeling worn down enough to want a bit of healing by now?  His back's really gotta be hurting, poor thing.  I'm mean TT

    Hehe, will update soon, very soon, so soon you'll be amazed.  Or not... but very soon ^^  Thanks so much, your wonderful and extremely lovely reviews made my day (week ^^) and were so much fun to reply to, I feel like we've had quite the conversation about it all, very very helpful *hands you muffin of your choice (some people have made a point that not everyone is as crazy about blueberry muffins as myself.  Go figure ^-^)

    have fun and Thanks  -stay cool ^^

    Oh, I've really loved the last two chapters, especially how concerned and protective Ron and Hermione are. You know, I think we're all anticipating Umbridge being found out and getting her come-uppance (hopefully something painful and humiliating) and thinking that Severus and perhaps Dumbledore might be the ones to go after her...but after this chapter I could also imagine Ron and Hermione wanting to exact justice for Harry's sake, too.

    I'm glad that Severus has realized that Harry is ill and sent to Madame Pomfrey...I hope she realizes how hurt and wounded Harry is; she strikes me as being the type that not much gets by her, so I'm hopeful. And it was a nice little teensy step for Severus; he doesn't like Harry yet, but he does see that he receives care, even though Sev is as snide as always while doing it, lol!

    I'm really looking forward to the next chapter! Hmm, got anything chocolate?

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!  I do love protective friends, I have one or two and thought it only fair Harry did too, he definitely needs them and if you risk your lives together year after year I presume going through a school year together would seem fairly simple by comparison ^-^ definitely nothing Ron or Hermione would shy away from anyway.  Hehe yeah, I think it’s only fair Umbridge’s uppance comes from every direction possible ^-^  She definitely deserves something as imaginative as her own methods ^-^

    Mmm, Poppy is very perceptive, but then also very busy.  A kind woman (well, my Poppy is at least, I do like introducing caring characters don’t I? That bad? ^-^) and motherly but a little... well, you’ll see I suppose.  She will stumble on something though.  I’ll try to update the next few chapters quickly just because the waiting between them may get a little unbearable if I don’t ^-^

    And he wouldn’t be Snape if he wasn’t snide! ^^ at least until he discovers a reason to stop being like that *wink wink* ^^ - snidey snarky Snapey, I can’t wait for... I think it’s chapter ten, ‘til then, I hope the tension doesn’t make anyone explode or anything ^^

    Oh, very remiss of me, *showers you with chocolate muffins, chocolate chips and double chocolate mudcake with hot chocolate*  More?

    Great story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Will someone finally figure out what's going on with Harry? It's killing me!
    He's so lost and Snape is so clueless...dang it, he's a spy, notice something Severus! (Can I have my blueberry now? But I want hot chocolate...it's fall here and getting cold).

    Author's Response:

    Thank you!!!  Oh, I’m sorry, have a muffin *gives you a life-saving muffin* hold on just a little longer, I’m sorry I drag out the drama so, bad habit ^-^ If it helps, anyone who knows me knows that I tend to wait until the last second and make it as... uh, visually powerful as I can ^^ you’ll see ^^

    And what a wonderful description, he’s a very lost boy right now... and Snape is remarkably clueless for a spy, but then he is in canon for quite a few years so perhaps it’s not such a surprise (he will be slightly smarter in this though, he just likes to stubbornly take his time *glares at sev* ^^)

    Oh, my apologies *gives you muffins filled to bursting with blueberries and a super huge mug of hot chocolate* - you can have all the hot chocolate I have, it’s too hot here to want any, I’d give you are heatwave if I could (and don’t hesitate to send your cold weather here ^^, remind me why I’m living in Australia again?... oh right, born here... damn ^^)

    Have fun and warm up (kick some autumn leaves for me ^^) x

    OOh, I hope that he does go see Pomfrey and gets some help. I guess hat this is Snape's way of doing that.

    Great chappie. I can't wait for the next chapter. I hope that Snape eventually softens up and helps Harry with the toad lady.

    Author's Response:

    Oh don’t think I’m through just yet ^-^ - Snape will have a much larger part in proceedings than ordering Harry about... well, sort of ^^

    Thanks so much, there is much more h/ccc to come, I’ve barely begun ^-^

    Have fun x

    Curious to find out what Poppy says about Harry's injuries. Will she know what caused them or will she ask Snape about it?

    Author's Response:

    Ah, well we’ll just have to wait and see won’t we ^-^ Poppy does have a tendency to shed light on things though... even if she doesn’t realise it at the time ^-^

    Have fun x

    This story is soooooooooo good!!! Poor, poor, poor Harry! I can't wait for the next chapter!

    Author's Response:

    Thank you soooooo much! ^-^ that’s really sweet, and Harry’s gonna get a bit poorer yet... if that made any sense ^^

    Have fun x

    Spring?! I wish spring would hurry up for us - it's bitingly cold where I am and there's giant clouds on the horizan that simply scream 'rain'!
    Anyhow - that was brilliant. I'm quite happy to wait out this lull because I know that the development of character that will be made during it will make the storm that much better! Thanks for updating!

    Author's Response:

    Oh you lucky lucky thing, please send some our way!  Two weeks of 39 degrees, I’m melting TT

    Thanks so much ^^ and hopefully the storm will be quite epic when it comes... not long now ^-^

    Have fun (and keep warm... I cant believe I’m saying that ^-^ it’s just so hot TT) x
