About me:

Caramello was the name that a kid from my first grade class called me, as my real name is pronounced Kara (not Kira) and is just spelled differently. No one has called me that since, but I have a fondness for the candybar regardless :)

There's not much to say about me other than I clearly love reading these stories. I tend to lean towards child-stories or stories where Snape adopts Harry. Biological father is cool too, but it's always irriated me (I'm not sure when) when Harry has glamour charms removed. I inevitiably still think of him as looking like I always pictured him to. Any and all story suggestions are welcome my way - I'm always searching for something new that I can read and love while waiting for the next chapter in other well-loved series.

I used to write a lot, but haven't written so much in the last few years, and nothing that is able to be posted on this site - however, I love the editing process as well, and I'm one of Aspeninthesunlight's beta's, and I'm willing to look over anything anyone would like me to. I do have a tendency to speak my mind and pick through stories pretty thoroughly, so if you tend to be sensitive about constructive criticism, I might not be your ideal beta.

    Haha. I don't think this was really a cliff hanger. In fact, it gave a bit of nice closure to know that Snape finally understands Harry's thought process. A bit of a relief actually. Good man, Snape :D

    Hope to see more soon! You're doing great.

    I seem to be a day behind on this story - the last few times you've updated it's taken me until the next day to read and review. I just like dragging it out :D

    The journal entry was so... well, I was going to say precious, but that feels a little funny. It was touching. It's so nice to see him no longer drowning in his anger, and realizing that that it's alright to be upset and confused - and that he needs to experience those feelings to aid his recovery.

    And Family Services finally made a stop! Wahoo! Although, I fear that the story is going to be ending soon because of it... I hope -- if I'm right -- that there'll be a sequel so we can see how this all progresses :)

    Oh boy. This ought to be interesting :D Poor Dumbledore - he's human, he makes mistakes, and now he's just had his mind attacked possibly more viciously than Harry's ever was. Haha, I'm liking where this is going -- I love the old man, but this is just showing how angry Harry can get, and I like it. As for Snape now... man, I do NOT envy Harry right now. Nope.

    Can't wait for the next chapter!

    Poor Harry and Dumbledore. At first, I was afraid Harry was blind, when he was clawing at his eyes, and was relieved that he wasn't. I do feel bad for Dumbledore too, though, I know he needed to see it all as well. Perhaps not in the way that he did, but alas, Harry is most definitely not perfect, lol.

    Can't wait for more :)

    Awesomesauce. I wonder where I can get my hands on some of that :D

    I love how intelligent you write Snape as. Not many people can pull it off, but you do it very well. I'm pleased he replaced the book Sirius gave Harry -- that shows quite a bit of growth and maturity on his part. And it really sweet on top of that *imagines Snape wouldn't take too kindly to that phrasing*. Harry's journal entry made me smile too -- he's finally getting what he needs, and he's so happy over it, even if he's pretending to be all nonchalant at the same time, lol.

    Great job!

    Awww! He's home! *Smiling* This chapter was so fulfilling for everything it included -- and quite a lot -- without being overly rushed or thrown in awkwardly. I loved Severus's explamation at being called Sev, but how he told Harry to come home early if he needed it :D And that Harry finally felt relaxed around Remus and that he got those letters -- Poor Ron and Hermione. They'll be in for the shock of their lives if and when they find out what happened.

    I KNEW IT!

    Okay, I didn't. But I knew something was wrong with Dumbledore last chapter. There was no way he'd make Harry face trial for anything - even if it wasn't in his power to change that, he'd raise hell at least... and yet he seemed so calm and non-chalant about it. I'm so curious to find out how Voldemort managed to get into his mind like that. It must've been when he was exceptionally weak, huh? Hmmm...

    *Drops to knees* Please let Severus be okay. For Harry. I know he'll need to go through some stuff, or whatever, but it would be devistating - in all aspects - if he were permanently damaged. I can't imagine you doing that to us, so I'm not so worried, but you can't blame a girl for worrying a little.

    Fantastic job. Can't wait for more :D

    Hahaha, freak out? Us? Nah... Okay, maybe just a tad ;) No, but seriously - you're doing really well, and I'm impressed by how fast you're updating, and with the quality that the chapters are continuing to uphold.

    I was shocked that Severus woke from his coma so quickly - I was sure it'd be several days, but I can't deny the relief I felt to find out otherwise. And Lupin getting the wolfsbane in time... I'd completely forgotten about his transformation. I love the idea of him being able to hold it off, but that it still has power over him, so close to the full moon.

    And now, my fear is that Harry might actually do some permanent damage to Dumbledore this time... or possibly even kill him. 'Course, that could be my dramatic side surfacing, but knowing what his stream of memories did last time... Yeesh. I hope Harry knows what he's doing!

    Can't wait for more :D

    No no no! No! I mean... YAY for Severus saving the day, but... Dumbledore :( Damn it, Harry -- why'd he have to pass out then? He sure chooses the most inconvinient times for those kinds of things ;) Good for him sticking up to Malfoy, though. That kicked major butt, to say the least.

    Thank goodness! I have to say, I wasn't looking forward to a chapter chalked full of Snape's wrath towards Dumbledore. I'm glad it was all resolved either way, though :) I've never imagined Lucius as a Squib before... me likey. Lol. It's possibly the worst thing that could ever happen to him, and he deserves every moment of it.

    Now I'm really looking forward to Ron and Hermione showing up. This'll be good :D
