About me:

I have been aquainted with fanfiction for quite some time and find that in these days after the release of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows, that it has become all the more prominant staple in my life.  I have yet to try to write any Harry, Severus fanfiction or any pretaining to Harry Potter characters in general but enjoy reading them immensly!  Thus, I find myself to be a reader and reviewer instead of a writer...

...Well, perhaps not now anymore...I finally started posting my pre-Hogwarts fic, "The Truth About Tomorrow."

Ok, so reading and reviewing is still a lot better than writing, I'm not terribly creative and in my fic you'll find some borrowed information from other fics that you've read.  It's never something major, but the reference and connection can be seen if you look really closely.  This information also is usually something that has been accepted as 'true' in the fic world.  But the main plot of the fic is still mine...if I ever do plot it out fully.  I should really do that some day..

    I love strawberry ice cream! As well as this chapter! Hopefully, though, there isn't a massive battle in the middle of the leaky cauldron between Harry, Severus, and Lucius. Wow, I am so excited that this just keeps getting better and better...can't wait until Wednesday!

    I am so proud of Snape! Good job with this chapter, you should know that they just keep getting better...can't wait for the next chapter! (I do like it when horrible damage is inflicted on Harry from his past, but please make sure that he's going to be ok in the end!) Keep writing and I'll keep hanging on your every word to see what happens to our beloved pair of characters...great job of characterization by the way!

    Ooh! This is truly getting better and better! I am so happy for Severus and Harry, "Our interactions are satisfactory." It's brilliant! You are truly amazing. I really hope that you get Harry back into shape for when classes start, I don't think he can handle another setback. But once he gets back into class, it's bound to happen and that's ok. I'm just glad that the meeting with the ministry official went well, but it did seem kinda (don't dock points) out of character for Harry to be so trusting of this woman, but I suppose that he was really determined to get this guardianship through. Can't wait until Monday!!

    I must agree that that was a horrific display of a lack of judgement, but I am punching the air screaming "Go Harry!" Woot! And congrats on having yet another story featured, there is a reason that you were awarded that ribbony thing...your stories are awesome! I must feel kinda bad for Dumbledore, though...but he'll be ok and finally able to REALLY help Harry. So it was worth it, right? (Wednesday or Thursday couldn't come soon enough!)

    Ok, I'm happy that Dumbledore realizes that Harry has gone through more than he expected and that he won't push Harry to improve, but don't you think you're a little too late, Dumbledore? Especially after this incident, there is no way that Harry is going to be able to go back to class on time. I'm glad that Dumbledore told Minerva everything that he saw/felt from Harry's memories. I relly hope that we get to see a scene where Harry opens up with Severus and tells him everything that has happened, maybe just then he can be helped easier. I'm grateful that Severus and Harry have the relationship they do, though which is made only more real by your excellent characterization with Dumbledore in this chapter too! It was perfect and I hope that he has truly learned his lesson--although I'm pretty sure Harry's made his point. Update before the weekend!

    You are made of awesomness as well! This was a lovely addition to your story!

    I've always loved the journal entries and this one takes the cake, for it is soo Harry that it's amazing! It's great to see what he feels about the stuff that's going on in his life while still being within the scope of characterization that J.K. set the perameters for. Snape in this chapter also gave me goosebumps, and it's so sweet how he's confused and unsure of his feelings but knows that he cares about Harry. I'm also glad to hear that Dumbledore has made a good recovery and that holds no ill will towards Harry. I just hope that Harry's able to at least try to attend classes--perhaps potions will be the first on his schedual...Can't wait for the next chapter!

    I, along with everyone else, I'm sure, really really want a sequel!! There's still so much of the story that we don't know and need to know!

    But, great chapter, as always!! I was smiling soo much when Severus called his chambers "home." It was perfect!

    But, we still need to know what's going on with Ron and Hermione. Hopefully Harry isn't damaged to the the extent that he can't even tolerate a visit from his closest friends.

    I really liked Harry's meeting with Remus especially with the chocolate making him feel better. I wonder if it's really the chocolate or if it's Remus himself? (Totaly irrelevent, I know!)

    Well, write write write!!

    Yay!! A sequel is on the way!! I'm so happy to hear that!

    Really great chapter, by the way! I wonder what Dumbledore's up to? Hmm, hopefully he's not turning into the 'evil, scheming, manipulating Dumbledore.' That would be sad, because Harry needs him to be behind him in his fight against Voldermort too.

    Can't wait to see what happens when Ron and Hermione come to visit...but I guess the more pressing matter is when (not if, right?) Severus wakes up what will happen. I hope that Dumbledore and Severus have some theories about what did happen.

    I also really liked to see that Harry was writing in the journal on his own. I know he has been doing this for quite the few chapters, but to see him turn to it in a time of confusion and terror...it shows how closely linked he is to Severus. (He made Harry start the journal, he is writing about Severus.)

    Well, I think that's it, really good job once again! Can't wait for the next installment...that scheming Dumbledore *growls*...I don't like him! (This Dumbledore's giving me a bad vibe now, geez!) Yeah, can't wait!!

    I thought it was kinda wierd that Dumbledore just left Harry with the 'sleeping' Severus...how is Harry to know what potions he will need when, or even what they are? He's up to something, that Dumbledore...

    Wow, that was intense! I remember when I read the first line of this chapter I about ran screaming from the room, throwing my laptop against the wall. But alas, I continued and I'm glad I did! Really great chapter!

    I hope that someone comes to save Harry before Malfoy or Voldermort/Dumbledore does something horrible to him! He truly has been through a lot in your story and although he has Severus, I don't think he'd be able to take the same treatment from them as he did before.

    Keep writing!! I love your cliffies! (Especially if it means that another chapter is on the way!)

    Great Chapter! I really liked how Harry's fighting back, yeah!! "Harry met his gaze and smiled." I can picture it too!

    And Severus, it's great to see that he has formed such a bond with Harry and is concerned for his safety. I hope that you'll tell us how Dumbledore/Voldemort poisoned his mind so, and how Severus was able to break away from it. Because it seems that Dumbledore/Voldemort didn't expect him to wake up.

    I hope that Harry was just beat up with some spells, and that he's going to be ok after this. Also, I hope he has to get himself out of this predicament alone. It would be too easy if he is able to break the bonds between Voldemort and Dumbledore and Dumbledor leaps valiently to Harry's rescue. I really want to see Harry defend himself against Malfoy too!

    Well, can't wait for the next chapter!! And, your cliffs arn't bad at all, but extremly exciting and I can't imagine what is going to happen next...
