    Oh, Hermione is so uptight! She needs to relax a little!

    I feel bad for Harry, getting scolded twice in one night. :(


    He's so cute though, and reckless. Perfectly in character. You write them all so well.

    Author's Response:

    She's worried about him, but yes -- definitely uptight.

    Thank you!

    I want to read the entire story before I reviewed....you have had me on the edge of my seat a times. I so love the easy humor between Harry and Severus. No keen on the Harry/Hermione parting, never liked it so it's a problem with me, not your writing......I look forward to your next chapter.

    Author's Response: I hope you enjoy it! Thanks for the comment.

    Aw, I really felt for Severus in this chapter and my heart broke with the line about only teaching himself steel and ice--that was very poignant. And even more so as he whispers, "Dear child". Loved that. I hope someday Harry gets to really know that Severus cares for him.

    I'm enjoying the complicated H/Hr relationship as well.

    Author's Response:

    Severus has some problems with expressing positive emotions, doesn't he? ;-)

     

    Thanks for the comment!

    "already he was acting suspicious[ly]"

    'Tis an adverb.

    Author's Response: Well, no. If it was an adverb, it would modify the verb. I want the verb to connect the subject to a modifier, so I'm using "act" in the sense of "seem to be", for which my unabridged dictionary gives the example of "he acted angry". "He acted angrily" would be a perfectly valid sentence, but it would mean something else -- that the subject acted with anger. Similarly, I would tend to read "he was acting suspiciously" as "he was acting with or from suspicion". Harry is appearing suspicious (in the sense of being worthy of suspicion), so the form I want really is "he was acting suspicious."
