    Oh good Draco cornered him and found out. Does Snape realize the eye is fake, it's not really mentioned. And would the Dursley's have gotten him a fake eye? how did he get it? Just nosey...

    Author's Response: You'll find out, you'll find out! *giggles* So many questions, but I'm glad you like the chapter. TftR.

    Great chapter! grr... evil dursleys (but then, we already knew that:) how dare they hurt my precious harry! I don't particularly mind the "Last Times" but I also don't mind just going to the last chapter, so either way is fine for me.

    PS-I'd love some chocolate frogs :)

    Author's Response: *gives a handful of them* Sorry, but I'm running out of frogs. You'll have to be glad with half-rations for that sweet. I'm glad you like the chapter, and I'm finding I'm getting more neutral answers then yes or no. That's funny. Hope you'll like the next chapter, TftR.

    I don't mind the "last time" thing.
    But I am very much in favor of longer chapters of any flavor.
    Can't wait to see Snape's reaction to Harry's wounds. How long until the bullies are found?

    Author's Response: That might take awhile. They aren't going to reveal themselves if they find he's been to an authority figure (if you know Sev, you'll know why). You'll have to wait and see Sev's reaction though. Glad you liked the chapter, TftR.

    Just a point of clarification, the Last Time thing is fine with me; it could get helpful particularly if you have a longer wait between chapters. However, if it is a trade-off between chapter length and Last Timers, I'd definitely for dropping it in favor of length. But if you're going to increase the length regardless, I'd say keep it in. After reading some other reviews, I realize I may have read this wrong.

    Also, I did want to mention that you are doing a much better job of holding my interest now that you are updating sooner. Getting better. ;)

    Hope that helps! I also added a rating this time, I forgot it on the last.

    Author's Response: Well, I was thinking of increasing the length, regardless. But if you want a 2.5k+ word length, I'll have to drop the Last Time bit. I'm much more comftorable at the 1k-1.5k chapter wordlength. I'm glad you are getting more interested, and I do update when I can. Hope you'll like the next chapter, TftR.

    Wonderful chapter! Poor little Harry! I hope he sees that they will protect him (they will, right?)! I can't wait for the next chapter!

    I'm fine either way with the "last time" thing.

    Author's Response: Okay, so far gotten some for and some against. I hope you'll like the next chapter, and I'm glad you liked this one. TftR.

    really good story. Well written so far. I think the slow reveal is a good mechanism. Please continue and update frequently, or with longer chapters (that's your choice, we don't expect you chained to the computer).
    Thanks

    Author's Response: *snickers* I update when and how long as I can. I'm glad you liked the way I was slow to reveal things. I think it ups the satisfaction of when it's finally revealed. TftR, hope you like the next chapter.

    Go Draco! I liked him very much in this chapter, and of course I liked Harry's reaction.... so this is why he has a glass eye?
    I like the Last time thing... of course I wouldn't mind longer chapter, but it could be a little be confusing without the Last Time.... but that's only my opinion, and I don't really have a preference...
    This chapter wasn't too short as well, and you updated so soon, so thanks and great job!

    Author's Response: Hmm, so it really depends, huh? Well, I'll try to get longer chapters in, but I'm using the library's computers for my posts now. Not alot of time to write stories. Glad you liked the chapter, TftR.

    I think in favor of longer chapters that you should take our the Last Time. Longer chapters are always wonderful. :)

    In fact, that is really the only critique that I have for you. Most of my other good stories are at least half again as long if not more chapter-wise than yours are. Yours is kind of teetering on the edge of keeping me interested becuase of length and time between updates vs. action occurring in the chapter.

    Keep it up, it's finally starting to really get interesting! And bring in more Sev/Harry relationship development!
    MJ

    Author's Response: Well now that Draco's gotten Harry to come foward, it won't take so much time between chapters. I've finally gotten over the hump in this chapter, if you will. I hope you liked the chapter, and will like the next one. TftR.

    I love it when authors use the "last time" technique, it saves me having to go back and read what happened at the end of the last chapter to refresh my memory. Please keep using it. Bye the way, not very nice leaving us hanging at the end of the chapter!! Please update soon.

    Author's Response: *giggle* Better then some of my cliffies though, don't you think? I'm very glad you liked the chapter, and we'll see how the vote goes about the "last time" technique. TftR.

    Keep the "last time" -- I always find it useful--I don't have to go back and fully re-read the previous chapter.

    Bravo Draco and Severus. Well handled--you kept Harry from bolting. (poor guy)

    Looking forward to your next update.

    Author's Response: Glad you liked. *chuckle* Indeed, poor Harry. He's a deer caught in headlights right now. TftR, glad you liked the chapter.
