    I enjoyed that.You set the feel of the chapter perfectly. Poor Severus - there's still so much of the unwanted child who doesn't believe in his own worth in him. Harry's reaction was spot on, and Dumbledore's scene lightened things up nicely. Now to see how things progress from here.

    Author's Response:

    Glad you liked it. I quite agree with you on Severus, and how much his past shapes him. It is funny, because I see little snippets of the past in people every day, and I suppose that is why I wanted to write Severus this way - to remind people that the past never really does leave you, for better or worse, even if you've moved on. Thank you so much for the feedback!

    I really like how this chapter turned out!
    I was kind of nervous when I realized what Sev was planning to do, but you explained his motivation very convincingly; he really needed to do it.
    I loved to hear his side of the story; it made so much sense. People who join fascist or terrorist organizations are often (though not always) from disadvantaged backgrounds and easily fall prey to the promises of belonging. And I liked that Sev has enough distance to recognize why Lily would be so final in her judgment.
    Loved this chapter (for some reason, I giggled really hard at the image of Dumbledore pulling Snape up by his collar ;) )! Looking forward to more soon!

    Author's Response: I am so relieved you liked it. To tell the truth I didn't want to write this scene, but it occured to me that it would hurt Harry not to know, and seeing as what is happening to Severus, he would feel he need to tell him. I'm glad you thought the motivations were good. I also snickered when writing about Dumbledore dragging Snape up by the collar, so I'm not surprised someone else found it sort of funny.
