    Snape really did come to a turning point. Maybe with the help of Lily, he will be able to see his own self-worth. She has the confidence in him to pull it off. Now, if he can only straighten things out with Harry.

    Author's Response: I can't tell you how long I've wanted to write this chapter. Poor Sev has had such a hard life... And as for Harry, well... That poor kid has had a rough go of things, too. He has issues to work out, just like Snape. I guess we'll see what happens.

    Wow, what a turning point for Severus. He needs healing, a new hope and purpose. Can he accept this change? Can he go on? Keep it within himself and change, and bare what he must go through?

    What an abrupt turn! Wow. Just wow.

    And how is Harry doing after all these days? Fantastic story, thanks so much for the updates!

    Author's Response: I'm really hoping and praying that Sev has found someone that can be the light in all the darkness that has surrounded him his whole life. I feel like if anyone can do it, Lily can. And as for Harry, I promise we're getting there. The poor kid has been through the ringer, and definitely has some stuff he has to work out. All I can say is that he is none too happy being at the Weasley's, as much as he loves them. We'll soon see!! Thank you so much for the review! :)

    Woah!! I did not see that coming. Oh boy. What a fantastic story! Just fantastic.

    I loved Severus frantic pacing and arguing with Dumbledore. I wonder if Dumbledore knows Harry is a horcrux, if he would allow Harry to die.

    I love how Severus thinks of himself as a father to Harry, even if he doesn't want to admit it. He's in a bad way, doesn't he know that drinking is not going to enable him to protect and help Harry, as far away as Harry is?

    Can't wait to read more.

    Author's Response: Thanks!! Poor Sev, his go-to for dealing with his issues has always been his Occlumency shields. But when those start to crumble, he's got nothing, and turned to the only thing that could give him any semblance of peace without actually dealing with anything: drinking. Hopefully both he and Harry can work their issues out together, but I guess only time will tell. Thank you so much for the review! :)

    Nooooo! Oh man. Severus, what a mess you are and you know it. But Harry saw, Harry connected. Wow. Such powerful emotions in this chapter. Wow. And of course Dumbledore and Lupin don't understand. I can't help but feel that the Weasleys are not the best choice for Harry. He's much to damaged, will they even know what to do with him? Poor Severus. And what of his cuts? Are they healed?

    Fantastic chapter.

    I would LOVE to see Parvati kick butt.

    Author's Response: It literally hurt to write this chapter. Poor Sev... Poor Harry... It's all crumbling before their eyes. The Parvati one-shot it coming, promise! :) I may have to write it before the end of this story, as the story is dying to be told. Thank you so much for the review! :)

    Such a beautiful and passionate chapter, and a fitting song. I love your writing and await your next!

    Author's Response: Gawww... Thanks. Honestly, although it's been harder for me to sit for any length of time and write (thanks to the hubby's injury), I honestly feel like these characters write themselves. But thank you so much!! I promise the next chapter will be up soon!

    This was so beautiful! I heard the song "I'll be good" for the first time a couple of months ago and fell in love with it. I was definitely excited to see it here. Can't wait to see Severus open up more with the people he loves

    Author's Response: Thank you!! Yes, I just stumbled on that beautiful song recently - right before I started writing this story, in fact. Now it is forever etched in my mind as "Snape and Lily's song". :} Thank you for the review!

    This was simply beautiful. Stunning. I don't even have words.

    Author's Response: Wow, thank you SO much! I can't tell you how thrilled I am that you like it! I've been dying to write that scene for a very long time, and was worried that I wouldn't do the characters justice. So thank you for making me feel like maybe I actually did. :)

    I don't see Harry staying with the Weasleys too long. He is going to want to help Snape. As for Albus, I am surprised that he didn't head to the Weasley home immediately to work on warding.

    Author's Response: I didn't do a very good writing it - in fact I don't even think I mentioned it (shame on me - but Dumbledore did in fact strengthen the wards the day that Harry arrived. And I have a feeling you may be right about Harry staying with the Weasleys...

    WOW. What a transformation in Severus' behavior towards Harry since the first chapter. While I think Dumbledore is a bit justified in his anger about Severus handling Harry that one time, I think that leaving things to chance is just as irresponsible.

    OH that last line-- Oooooh.

    Author's Response: I agree about Dumbledore. He's a meddling old fool who is doing his best to save the world from certain destruction. Poor guy, lol. And yeah, Severus is going through a MAJOR transformation, and with his traumatic background and all the issues he's never addressed, it's definitely a difficult scenario. I'm so glad you're enjoying the story. Thank you so much for the review! :)
