1. Sept. 4 – Sept. 11, 1996 by Suite Sambo [Reviews - 9] (4446 words)
Welcome to "Regards, Harry." This is a sequel to my completed story Moment of Impact. Note that the events of this story occur either between Chapters 43 & 44 of MOI or "in" chapter 44 and will all occur during Harry's sixth year at Hogwarts. All events roughly follow canon except for the mentor/father-figure relationship between Harry and Severus that was established in MOI. While MOI was told in Harry's POV, the POV in this story switches between the Harry and Severus and is told with limited narrative and regular letters between the two. The background (given in MOI), is that Severus must publicly appear to treat Harry the same as ever, but they agree to communicate through letters written to each other on Harry's Defense Against the Dark Arts homework assignments. While this story can be read by itself, there are frequent references to events and situations that occurred in MOI, which took place in the summer between 5th and 6th years

A/N: A short chapter to close the gap between Chapter 13 and the Christmas Chapter (15).
15. Interlude: Christmas 1996, Shell Cottage by Suite Sambo [Reviews - 4] (4560 words)
A break from the linear and epistle format of the regular story. This is the Christmas at Shell Cottage chapter, and represents more of a 'coming to terms' with who they are and where they are going than a long-awaited reunion. Harry is beginning to grow up but he is also just learning to value and appreciate home while Severus grapples with the realities of having a reason to come home. The style is more reminiscent of the final chapter of Moment of Impact and will return to the letter format with Chapter 16.

Those of you who are reading this story after reading Moment of Impact may remember what Harry's Animagus form is. Those of you who did not read the original may be surprised (as will those of you who missed it, as it was in the final chapter of MOI and not discussed at great length). This chapter focuses largely on Harry's Animagus form, and what it means. Bear with me—it’s a bit unconventional…

20. January 26, 1997--Sunday by Suite Sambo [Reviews - 5] (4886 words)
A/N: You'll notice some apparent gender/pronoun issues here, as Harry spends time in his female Animagus form. In general, the female pronouns are used when the doe's mind is in control and the male when Harry's mind is. I went back and forth on this for quite a while. Hope it works how I have it here.

A/N: In this chapter there is reference to a detention served by Harry and another student. In this detention, they have to "work" with Hagrid on a specific wild animal. A friend pointed out to me that the specific method they use doesn't actually..."work"...with the animal in question. However, the intent is to make everyone cringe a bit, so we'll just pretend that the animals in question, as they live in the Forbidden Forest, are slightly magical and that the "apparatus" used is magical as well...and that it would actually "work." Forge ahead! (And when you read this through, and realize what I'm talking about, I hope you are as amazed as I am that someone out there knew enough about this process and this animal to catch my error!)
