Reviews For Surgery
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 :-)
Author's Response: It did endeed work - Severus does not even realise to which point!
Looking forward to more. Author's Response: Exactly - I'm going to develop this further :-)
Author's Response: So it does, huh? The particulars of the bond will be explored during the next chapters :-)
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...
Author's Response: Believe me, Severus will not let go so easily... you'll see.
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.
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'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... |
