Unsorted!
Before Harry arrives at Hogwarts, the faculty have a meeting and decide that Harry will need a mentor to help him adjust, keep him out of trouble, and make protecting him easier. They decide that this person should the Head of the House into which Harry is sorted, presumably Minerva McGonagall. But things, of course, don't turn out as planned, and Harry is harder to deal with than anyone expected. Nobody asked him if he wanted a mentor, after all...
NOTE: This story has a prologue. It is not necessary to the plot of the story, but if you wish to read it, it is called(predictably enough) 'Prologue to Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'

- A quick Obliviate should take care of the Malfoy problem. Baywatch boy! wonderful!
Author's Response: LOL thanks. I don't know if Sev would consider that or not. It's just a touch unethical.

- I am looking for a hankie now, becasue I was in tears as Harry was apologizing to Kallie.
Love the Prank War! I wonder will Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff get in the game as well?
Author's Response: Aww...I'm glad you liked it. You'll have to see...hehehe I'm the only one who knows. :-)

- Have I said I love these conversations between Harry and Snape. You write both of them sarcastic and well, I can see Sev trying to hold back, but he doesn't lose his edge.
Author's Response: Thanks!! Yeah I like writing them - they're like verbal fencing all the time. Thanks for the review!!!

- I love the green dress, it was great! Side note Horace is spelled wrong (you have it as Horus)
Author's Response: Thanks! Glad you liked it! And I fixed the name. Whoops. :-)
Desperate to escape his guilt and nightmares after the third task, Harry transforms into a hawk by accident and ends up breaking both wings and suffering partial memory loss. He is found by Snape, and while the professor nurses him back to health discovers the truth about Severus and who are really his friends and enemies at Hogwarts.

- I am really loving this story :-) I had never really pictured Harry as a Hawk before, but actually I can see it. Keep up the good work!
Author's Response: Thanks! I figured it made sense, since he's a natural flier and hawks are wickedly cool animals as well as being loyal and good friends, which Harry is.

- I'm sitting here with my eyes wide and my mouth hanging open....I didn't see that happening. So will Freedom tell Sev he's Harry?
Author's Response: Well, not just yet. There a few more things Freedom needs to learn about Severus himself and he still wants to try and help his friends beat Umbridge, but there will come a time when he has to reveal himself. In about three chapters, if I stick to my original plan. Hope you like the next part!

- Oh NO!!!! I really wish that Umbridge would fall off the Astronomy Tower.
Author's Response:
You know, many reviewers have said the same thing . . .*smirks*
Who knows it just might happen!

- Uh OH! I hear the ominous music beginning....
Author's Response: Yes, it is cue-ing loudly.

- You captured the emotion very well - I needed tissue to wipe my eyes...
Author's Response:
Wow! Thanks! Hope you enjoy the next one!

- Darn it...I should not have read this directly after reading the new chapter of Harry's New Home - I was already an emotional wreck and this kept me there right over the top. It's kind of hard to explain tears while sitting qietly at your desk :-)
I think that the talk went wonderfully! And I can't wait to see the confrontation between Harry and Ron - I love those!
Author's Response:
Yeah, I can see that would be hard to explain. Aww!
That's going to be a biggie and so is the one with Umbridge!
