Dumbledore’s response, though not unexpected, was disappointing. The end with Nott was really sweet in a very subtle and nicely done way. Great chapter. Thank you.

Very good chapter thank you. I love the scene with Nott, very tense but a good message.
There's no way you can wrap this up in just one chapter - not even a very long one! It's such a great read - I find I'm rushing each chapter as I'm so keen to find out what Harry is thinking, and wondering how long Snape can stay aloof. A bonus in some ways as I can then reread at a more leisurely pace.
Author's Response: I've always meant this to have a bit nebulous, Snape-and-Harry-reach-a-truce-but-aren't-super-cuddle-buddies ending, so I hope it's satisfying enough for everyone! Definitely a big shift is going to happen in the next chapter...and I'm thinking in the possible sequel (though I'm not sure when I'm going to get to it?) that I'll take that relationship deeper. This just kind of sets a groundwork.
But yes, Snape and his aloofness! Whatever shall we do with the man? ^-^
Thanks so much for speaking up again - I just love feedback, and you're so super sweet! <3
I'm wholeheartedly cheering for a sequel! I know life's demanding,but I really enjoy it. Oh,and a question-you purposely left out Ron all together, I assume. You didn't plan for him to make an appearance?
Author's Response: Hi, Reader17! Thanks for reading :) I definitely didn't plan to make Ron a main character; simply because it just didn't seem practical or realistic in the story to do so, with Harry being in Slytherin. Ron was mentioned briefly in one of the chapters (though not by name - I was curious to see if anyone noticed!), and I had hoped to put in some interaction between him and Harry in. It didn't work out with this, though. Possibly something to try to fit in the sequel? ^-^ Thanks for your interest! Love answering awesome questions about my writing :)
