    I cant keep reading this. I very badly want to finish this story but this plot disturbs me so badly I can't.I have never had an eating disorder but i can understand these measures in people with severe disorders but I think that harry was completely justified in rejecting food that was drugged regardless of the intentions behind said drugs. I have literally sobbed the last two chapters because im so disturbed by Snape's justifications and thought process. Its sadistic and skewed so badly- it was necessary for harry to eat- but was it necessary to restrain him for hours or to only offer him unappetizing slush- which you, the auther, says is gross and unapealing The torture of the potion and the utimatums and even breakfast in this chapter. I am so upeset that even as I write this im crying and feel like i might vomit from emotional stress. I couldnt even finish this chapter AND I REALLY WANT TO but i cant. Its making me especially sick that harry is being gratuitous after such extreme manipulations and mismanagement.

    i just cant and im sorry

    Ok honestly I can't get through this story. I hope in the end all is sunshine but torturing a kid is never ok. You drug a child then wonder why he won't eat. Then you force feed him and leave him immobilized just because surprise surprise he can't calm down. Then a health care professional visits and thinks this behavior is somehow acceptable. You write well but if this behavior allows trust to develop I think it's more likely to be Stockholm syndrome.

    What an excellent tale!

    I've decided to read some of the earlier works in the archive and was very please to find your stories. This one really grabbed my attention and I enjoyed it very much.

    I liked how you kept most of the POV in Harry's head so we readers didn't immediately understand Severus motivations as he cared for Harry at first.

    I also liked how the trust between them slowly developed--much more realistic than you find in some fics on archives that I won't mention. *grin*

    I also appreciate your not having Severus hex the Dursleys to death, even though they really did deserve some sort of censure for the neglect and emotional and physical abuse that they gave to Harry. It was nice seeing Severus take the higher road (even though he really didn't want to!).

    I really enjoyed that last scene in the courtyard. It was so peaceful and I could just picture it in my mind. :)

    Very well done! This is going on my list of fics to re-read.

    well done. A difficult story to write. Snape was in good character and Harry was way to stubborn, but then again trust isn't something that would come natrually for a preceived enemy.

    Really good.
