    Oh oh! Why do I get the feeling that Harry is headed for trouble with sneaking off to Hogsmeade? I'm interested to see how much of Canon you'll follow and what Snape will do or say to Harry...as a father, not a professor if and when Harry gets caught!

    Good chappie. Looking forward to the next one.

    If anything this should show the both of them just how similar they are. I hope Dumbledore forces the issue with Snape.

    Aw, poor Harry. It doesn't look like Snape and Harry are getting anywhere. Those boys could both use family if they weren't so darned stubborn.

    Good chappie. Can't wait for the next.

    I agree with Harry - Snape ought to put on his own thinking cap and come up with a project; he's the teacher, after all... and the parent. Clearly, the latter has not sunk in yet, though.
    Maybe Harry could ask Hermione?
    Great chapter!

    Read the first chapter last night (just as my computer went on a go-slow so I didn't leave a review), and thought the idea looked as if it would be fun. Second chapter continues to look good. I especially liked the idea of Harry using the time spent in History of Magic wisely.

    Oh dear. This is not going well, is it? But at least they are spending time together, albeit reluctantly.

    I do think that Dumbles knows what he is doing, even if he IS going about it in an annoying way.

    Good chappie. Can't wait for the next.

    Well, because I know that you don't observe Christmas Eve the same way we do, I've thought that observing Lent is Polish idea also. And it turns out that Lent lasts the same time for you and for us, although I don't know why for you these are 4 weeks - for us these are 6 weeks (without Sundays) and 4 days, from Ash Wednesday till Holy Saturday.

    I'm glad that next chapter is today. I hope that means you will publish a chapter every day.

    I wonder which one of these two will invent the project and what it'll be. I think they both are tarred with the same brush. Harry doesn't want to think about Snape as his father, and Severus addresses his son 'Mr. Potter'. I hope you plan for each of them to have a paradigm shift... or maybe THE paradigm shift I should say. I wonder how you are going to do it.

    And I must admit I wonder right now what exactly Remus knows about Harry's life with Dursleys...

    Author's Response:

    I kind of used the four weeks as a bit of a ballpark figure for how long Lent is. But you're right, it si about five and a half, six weeks. I'm probably going to go and change that in the first chapter. And on a personal note, how am I supposed to manage for six weeks without chocolate?!

    I'm kind of already working on the next chapter, but I'm off out to the Ash Wednesday service at Church this evening, so I don't know how much I'll get done. Ideally I'd like to post a chapter a day, but I don't know how realistic that will be to keep up for the next six weeks. I do plan on having Harry and Severus bond though, but it may take a while. I'm also worried about chapters getting repetitive if I post everyday.

    I'm glad you're enjoying the story though. And thanks for reviewing.

Title: Pancake Day (Shrove Tuesday) 22 Feb 2012 9:02 am

    Well, I have learnt something new. I've not known that there is Pancake Day and Lent in England too. We have it in Poland, but on our Pancake Day, which is named Ostatki, we eat donuts not pancakes, and our Lent longs for 40 days not for 4 weeks. It's very long and painful time for me becaude I for these 40 days I give up all kinds of sweets and I love sweets with all my heart. And today is the first day of Lent. And I'm dying already.

    OK, the story now. Well, the story begins quite interesting. I think the way that Harry and Severus are behaving is very probable, it's a lot like canonic them. Albus is good as well, i think. The only thing I'm not so much convinced is why Remus has been waiting all these years to tell Albus that Severus is Harry's father. Well, maybe you'll explain this sometime. I wonder what project these too will go throughout Lent. I'm waiting for more.

    Author's Response: Yes, we observe Lent (and Pancake day) in England too. Well, Christian's deserve it. And the four weeks is just a rough time scale, it's up until Easter, which this year is the first week of April. It's the first day of Lent for us as well, so no chocolate for me until Easter as well, which currently seems a long way off. Good luck with managing without sweets for the next 40 days. I'm sure we can both do it!

    Thanks for reviewing, I'm glad you liked the start of the story. I do have a reason why Remus didn't tell Albus until now, but I'm not sure how I can fit it into the story. Basically, he didn't know of Harry's poor living situation (the Dursley's) and thought the boy was happy, so why cause him pain my dragging him away from his family? And Severus didn't know either, so you can't lose or miss what you've never had.
