I feel really bad now, but I'm going to review anyway, because I can't believe this hasn't got any reviews yet.
The reason I feel bad about this is that I read some chapters a while ago, but stopped reading because long fics put me off in general (and I must be a massive hypocrite for this, because my fic will probably be around 35- 40 chapters in the end!), and stopped reading as much fanfic in general.
So, I just jumped into this chapter now, after missing much of your story out. But I think it can be read on its own -- and in fact, I like that about it as well. It has lovely moments of Harry and Severus trying to get on, and I love it. I love the way Harry feels he shouldn't give up on Snape. It's all so well written. I keep putting off/dreading writing the times I'll have to have Harry and Severus in such open moments myself -- but this was an utter pleasure to read. You draw Snape so well, I really feel I can imagine the characters in this.
I think I feel a bit less guilty now. Phew. ;)
Author's Response:
Long fics put you off? Oh dear, this fic will reach about 100 chapters! Still, I understand where you are coming from- I rarely read fanfiction, though admittedly, when I do it\'s a novel length romance and I read it over the course of a few days.
Naturally, I would suggest reading the whole fic, because you have missed so much, but I\'m sure you have limited time and just getting this monster chapter read was a difficult enough task in itself! But if you do want to read the whole thing, but worry about length, I always find it is better to copy and paste the whole story into one word document and read it over time.
You don\'t have to feel guilty about not reviewing- this story actually has been reviewed for this chapter, but most of that is on fanfiction.net. Still, I do appreciate that you took the time to drop me a line!
Thanks,

In an alternative universe, Harry and his parents survive Voldemort's attack, Dumbledore disappears, and Severus Snape is sentenced to serve ten years in Azkaban. A new wizarding law, due to the prison's overpopulation, allows for prisoners of lesser crimes to be sent to live with wizarding families, and serve the remainder of their sentences as slaves, under house arrest. Lily petitions to have Snape come live with them after he's served almost a full year in Azkaban. This story starts three years into Severus' house arrest.

- I did really enjoy it. Lovely execution of the Challenge idea. Your dialogue crackles. And Snape is perfect, and grouchy, and what a beautiful ending for him.
Thanks for sharing!
