Harry and Neville’s conversation was really nice. I liked the depth gained from the two different perspectives. Remus seemed really clueless that Harry was being distant with him, or maybe he simply didn’t have time to get at the heart of the issue.

I like Remus a lot, in this story he seems like a passing character, is he?. He didn't really make an effort to talk with Harry, or try to spend time with him.
Author's Response: Great observation karee. Remus was never around very much in canon. I can understand with the whole werewolf thing that it would have been close to impossible to have an active/consistent role with Harry, but somewhere along the line the wolfbane potion came out- and he still wasn't around. (the Wolfbane potion makes it so that the indiviual suffering with lycanthropy can maintain their intelligence during their monthly transformation.) JKR never really adressed this, but if I were Harry I would have felt resentment and perhaps some anger. Especially after his third year. So yes, I have a Harry and a Remus that have some distance between them (since they never talk all that much) and Harry is resentful. This entire situation take some time to resolve. In my Snarry series, this doesn't happen until the end of the second book. I'm not sure yet how I am going to handle things with this Sevitus version. Hugs to you, SHaria
