    I'm glad Tobias is meeting so many nice people. It balances out the jerks.

    HAHAHAHAHAHA! Trelawney is doping them up every class. Weeee!

    Draco's an Elf. HAHAHAHA! Oh gosh "a Noblemen" huh? I can't wait to see his face. . . .

    Now Snape's behavior in that situation is what really interested me. That was definitely atypical Snape behavior (or maybe I'm reading waay too much into it) I'm thinking either he really was only trying to protect Draco from his own stupidity, or the elf/fae standoff with a fae child involved kicked Snape's instincts off (assuming he has instincts) and made him all snarly towards Draco, or Snape was having a Grandpa moment and metaphorically beating his chest, or hell, maybe it was his own child's upset that was setting him off. That'd be nice. I'd like to see Snape all protective. But then I'd also like to see Snape cruelly reject them (I looove angst) so don't listen to me either way.

    I kinda agree with Snape about not having a baby in a potion's class but its not like Tobias has much choice.

    Umbridge!!! NOOOO!!! Oh. My. Gosh. That little rant is just the thing to set Hermione on Tobias' tail. She's a total freak like that. If she doesn't at least suspect who he is, I'll be shocked. The only reasons she wouldn't come to the conclusion that he is Harry Potter are 1) she doesn't know about 'Switches' 2) Harry doesn't have a kid or a girlfriend. 3) Harry's not a magical creature and she might be prejudiced enough to not associate Harry with the scary fae guy.

    The whole being royal thing could be enough to throw her off if it becomes known. Harry Potter's not a prince after all.

    Poor Harry. It pissed me off in the books and it pisses me off here. Umbitch is a freaking nightmare but its Harry who gets yelled at by the other teachers and told to shut up and keep his head down. Not. Cool. My poor adorable Harry.

    Author's Response: Hellos!! Thanks again for the lovely looooooong review!! LOL yeah, poor Harry. I do think the adults have a point, though - they don't know just how badly Umbridge is treating him, but it makes sense for them to tell him to keep his head down. Frustrating, but safer. :0)

    *Stops licking the screen* Mlahhh sho good.

    So there ARE more people in the school! Neat! I wonder how they feel about Tobias being all out of the closet. Maybe they feel reassured cuz there's a big strong one of them there and people are kinda sorta not running screaming from him. Or maybe they feel like he's an exposure risk--I mean, they're apparently reeeeaally focused on hiding. So I'm interested to see if they'll flock to him or avoid him like the plague.

    NOOOOO!! Umbridge!!!!

    Meh. I don't think mentioning Sprout was any kind of big slip up. Considering 'what he is' and that everyone else thinks there are none there, its very feasible he would have met with Dumbledore and the Heads of Houses before enrolling/being accepted/whatever.

    Heh. No one's asked him that yet. "Sooo Tobias, what the eff are you doing here mein?"

    Snaaaaaaaaape. Hahahahahahaha!!

    So he's going to tell the royals where he is? I can't see them leaving him there without a fight. And then they'll probably show up at Hogwarts and Dumbledore will find out he's a royal and what happens when they call him "Harry" in front of everyone? Maybe they'll be discreet? Meh. Ignore me. I'm just thinking 'out loud'.

    Author's Response: LOL thanks for lovely long review!! And don't lick your computer screen. That can't be healthy. You don't know where it's been. :0)

    I can't remember if I've already reviewed this chapter, but if so, I'll say again that I love the development of the plotline, the growth of the character Tobias Batard, and the wonderful differences from Year Five canon. I do like the fact that Harry/Tobias has matured drastically over the course of the story, and yet reads as a teenager at the same time. He certainly acts with a lot more circumspection than did Harry in OOTP, regardless of Snape's opinion about things.

    I love the introduction of Blaise as a probable member of the Court (figuring out the rank of people by jewelry is kind of fun!), and when Flitwick greeted Tobias with an appropriate bow it made me grin imagining the scene in my head.

    Looking forward to what happens next.

    Well done!

    Author's Response: :0) Yey!! Glad you like!! Thanks for the nice long review!! Enjoy the next chapter!!

    I'm really curious as to what Tobias is planning to do to Umbitch. I hope that it will be spectacular, whatever it may be! I do hope that Snape will try to be a 'little' less nasty to Tobias. He knows full well that the boy needs to keep his daughter close and safe and that he will do just about anything to accomplish it.

    Well, it seems that Blaise is like Tobias, or at least that is what I am theorizing. I assume that having two studs makes him royal as well, but with less status. It was nice of Blaise to give Tobias the time he needs. I have a feeling that it is to do with Umbitch...

    It sounds like Tobias has an incredibly heavy work load. It is going to be difficult for him to keep up, particularly with having a baby to care for. Apparently, the staff at Hogwarts don't think that their students need free time to recharge their minds. Too much work will only frustrate their students...

    Author's Response: Hehee nice long review. Much fun. Thanks so much!! Enjoy the next chapter!!

    Wow. I gotta say, this is one of the most original "Harry-has-a-life-changing-summer" fics. It seriously blew my mind. Normally, I dislike stories where Snape is Harry's blood father, but you approached it in such a way that even when the whole dad issue came up, I just couldn't stop reading. Honestly, I would continue gushing about your story and how awesome it is, but I don't have the time, so I'll end with "Plz! Update ASAP!" :) Happy writing!

    Author's Response: :0) YEY!!! So glad you like it so much!! Thanks so much for the review!! You made me smile. :0) Enjoy the next chapter!

    *snickers softly* Bout time Tobias used his head. I don't think Snape will like it much, though, finding out that Tobias is royal. Especially if their relationship is what I think it is. Kudos on a well written chapter.

    Author's Response: :0) LOL you'll see. Thanks for the review!! Enjoy the chapter!

    I don't know how Harry's going to work out this schedule-- going to school full time without being able to utilize day care seems impossible. And what happens as the child grows? I'm very curious as to what the author will do with this problem.
    On a different note, I can't wait to see what will happen next with Umbridge. It's such a painful part of cannon that she gets away with flaying students...they don't even try to fight her through official channels. It seems very wrongheaded-- as if all those kids are from abusive households. I like Snape's offer to have her arrested-- it's the kind of disgrace that would really hurt a career bureaucrat. I can only hope that Harry's idea really is better....

    Author's Response: :0) Much fun!! Thanks for the review!! I'm really glad you're enjoying the story! Enjoy the next chapter!!
