    Again, nice chapter. I liked how you wrote Harry deciding to go to Snape's potions class over the break instead of him going to Sirius's. It shows maturity especially when he says that he wasn't going to let Sirius's immature remarks bother him. Nice add of Harry and Hermione too. Good job.

    Author's Response: It was mature of him. But when Sirius dies before that summer, he'll regret his decision. Thnks for reviewing!

    I liked reading about the remedial potions. Harry's put in a lot of hard work, but it's paying off and I'm really pleased for him. It was pretty nice of Snape to go to all that trouble, too.

    Author's Response: People don't often seem to understand how much work teachers put into lessons and teaching. I personally could hardly believe Snape was being so nice. Thanks for your review!

    Whoops, I forgot to add that I absolutely LOVED Snape's comment at the beginning - it was so Snape, just perfect!

    Author's Response: Thank you.

    Okay, I liked this one more than the fist; more action.

    I wouldn't say you "turn a cauldron on". More like you "light a cauldron". This threw me for a loop, and put a bump in the smoothness of the reading.

    And now for the finale...

    Author's Response: I'll make a note of that and try not to confuse it in the future. Thanks! :)

    OMG!! Harry and Hermione? How sweet! And Snape teaching Harry was cute. I like that Snape was pleased, but was NOT going to reveal that for anything in the world! And I like how Snape taught the kids above what they maybe they should be learning. I had teachers like that. But I bet he LOVES seeing them squirm!! XD HAHA!! Another awesome chappie!! :D

    Author's Response: H/Hr is sweet, I'm glad you thought it was cute. Of course Snape wouldn't show Harry anything other than stern, work and revolusion. My teachers all teach us above what we should now. My math teacher was teaching us stuff four years above our level, but we all got it. I think that Snape likes seeing people squirm, it's in his nature.

    I'm really enjoying your characterisation of Harry who acts, well, maturely. And though I couldn't see Snape crying over a photo album, no matter how bitter the memories, it was a lovely scene. Surprisingly enough, though I'm not big on the H/Hr pairing, it does come about naturally in your story, so I'm not complaining. :) About time Harry found something that would take his mind off from all that studying, though I don't know if that's possible with Hermione around. :D

    Nitpick: "But by the time the potion, a simple burn slave, was finished.." I believe it's "salve" rather than "slave." :)

    Author's Response:

    I like mature!Harry and sad!Snape. I really like Hr/H and even through you don't really I'm glad you can still find it right in this stroy. :) You're right though, I tried studying with my former boyfriend a few times, it never ended up working. I did not mean "burn slave" I don't really even want to think about what that implies.

    Interesting Harry and Snape interaction: very realistic and I liked the changing focus, which allowed the reader to see into the thoughts and private lives of both characters.

    The growing distance between Ron and Harry was sad but understandable; as Harry's matured, he's become more focused and serious which gives him more in common with Hermione. I always thought that the canon Ron really did seem the odd one out of the trio (being rather more hendonistic and prone to seeing the world as black and white), which made me rather sceptical of the Ron/Hermione pairing. (I loved your ending to this chapter; it was a really sweet and vivid image.)

    Author's Response: The changing focus was something I was experiemnting with in this story. Glad to know it worked out. :) I never liked Ron/Hermione either. Ron just never seems to mature and he grows more and more away from his friends in Deathly Hallows. I'm not a big Weasley fan at all and I tend to treat them badly in all my fan ficition.

    Wow! Harry is really working his butt off!

    Snape must be wondering what the heck has gotten into Harry.

    Hermione must be happy though.

    Great job, onto the next chappie.

    Author's Response: In my mind Hermione always wished that the boys would start working with her. And Harry's attraction to her isn't unwanted either. :) I always thought that Snape saw Harry more as Lily than James once he started working harder. Thanks for reviewing!
