    I'm enjoying this fic way more than I thought I would. Surgery and hospitals make me squeamish so I was apprehensive about reading this. However, it's wonderfully written! I like this flavour of Snape you're showing.

    Author's Response: I'm glad I did not scare you away with the medical stuff. I work in a hospital, and it strikes me how many dramatic and moving scenes are enacted in that setting on a daily basis (if you take the time to notice). Happy that you like the Snape falvour as well :-)

    Ah ha! So now we have the reason for Severus's out of character behavior towards Harry!

    Looking forward to more.

    Author's Response: Exactly - I'm going to develop this further :-)

    Well this chapter reveals a lot

    Author's Response: So it does, huh? The particulars of the bond will be explored during the next chapters :-)

    Liked how the story is going so far, usually stories go for Snape getting guardianship right away, this thing with the Wesley's was interesting.

    Author's Response: Thank you! I guess I could have ended it like that - it would have made the story shorter, which might have been an advantage :-) but there was so much more that I wanted to explore...

    Ahhh... I think those last words the elder Weaselys uttered startled Sev a little. Can't wait to see what happens next!

    Please don't tear them a part... Not when they are finally bonding!

    Author's Response: Believe me, Severus will not let go so easily... you'll see.

    DD really did take care of Severus didn't he? Totally on top of everything and involved, day to day. Protected Snape with everything he had. Made sure he was mentally and emotionally healing and safe.

    I wonder why he dropped the ball with harry? An innocent baby. I also wonder why, given the evidence of DD's negligence with Harry, Snape's advising Harry to trust DD? I guess from Snape's experience, DD is trustworthy. But from Harry's perspective, I can't quite believe it. He totally abandoned his self claimed responsibility... to an innocent child that can't protect himself. At least Snape was an adult. DD never checked upon him, never guided or taught him about his heritage or the WW, never protected him, nothing. Harry didn't even rate a proper introduction to the WW with minimum amount of information that muggleborns get.

    But I am predisposed to be highly critical of DD in every story I read along these lines since he took this responsibility upon himself, he wasn't forced. He has no excuse in my eyes for not giving Harry the same attention as he did Severus, another person he claimed responsibility for. But I promise I'll shut up about my opinion of DD after this. Pinky swear!


    Can't wait for more! The suspense of the Ministry's investigation is going to kill me, I just know it! :-) Gah! I have so many questions!

    Author's Response:

    Thanks for the reviews the past chapters! As always, I appreciate your sharp reflections and unforgiving condemnation of wrongs committed in the stories. But you know me from ”Spiral of Trust”, I will inevitably complicate things… Just wait and see… No, I’m not bashing Dumbledore in this story and I’m afraid I don’t explain in detail his exact reasoning behind putting Harry with the Dursleys from the start, except the canon version that they really are Harry’s closest relatives and that Dumbledore thought Harry would suffer from being treated as a celebrity in the wizard world. In my story, however, he did have someone check on Harry, but Petunia fooled them.

    Poor Harry

    Author's Response: Yes, it must be an aweful situation for a child not to know where and with who he will end up living.

    I would like to see Severus' face when the muggle social workers say that Harry can go with him because of their Father/son relationship. =D ...Is Severus in the muggle world in probation too or does he have a clear criminal record (because magical and mugge world doesn't cooperate)?
    I'm looking forward the next chapter!

    Author's Response: You're right that someone at least will try to defend Severus' rights as a "father"... In my mind the records in the wizard world do not register in the Muggle world, although Snape already told the nurses that he had been on probation long ago...
