    “What are you playing at?” Snape demanded. “How did you implant those false memories? Who helped you? Was it Miss Granger? Answer me, Potter!"

    OMG. Snape in this entire story was totally in-character. I've read so many where it's like, Mkay Snapey is looking into Harry's mind and is like OMG BIATCH WHO DID THIS TO YOU I KEEL THEM!!!! but it's really nice to see something where Snape stays in character and uses that to make sure that Harry understands that he's worth more than that. Yeah. As much as I love reading about Snapey getting all miffed on Harry's behalf (in due course, of course XD) Snarky Snape is awesome too. And your Snapey is definately awesome XD

What if Dobby hadn’t been the one to tell Harry about gillyweed? What if he’d received a hint from the most unlikely of sources? An alternate take on a scene from Goblet of Fire, written in response to the GoF challenge by Jan_AQ.

    "You're asking me to believe that our resident hero ever deigns to participate in an activity quite so mundane as actual human thought?"

    Snapey, you are perfect XD

    Plus, how he's all like i'm-pretending-to-insult-you-when-really-I'm-hinting-about-strange-plants-that-let-you-breathe-underwater-so-I-can-keep-you-alive-and-possibly-assuage-my-conscience is perfect too. It fills me with much luff C:

Harry is 7 years old and treated literally like a dog by the Dursleys. Will he be rescued by the wizarding world? Will he ever be fit to take on the mantle of The Boy Who Lived? Now Complete!

    I love stories with younger Harry, and this is no exception - you've characterised him really well, and I am very impressed with the scene at the end where he's going through the trash - I think you've illustrated Harry so well in this first chapter. I'm definately in love XD

    Can I just say that I love how you've still made Harry defiant (well, sort of) and how he won't eat the dog food. It's really nice how you've sort of hinted that, even though he's put up with so much, he still knows he's worth more than a dog.

    To steal another author's phrasing, you are made of awesomesauce XD

    I've read this chapter so many times I thought I'd just drop in a quick review before I went to bed - I love how you've done Snape, how he's jealous and when he's all like:

    "He tended to rely heavily on that expression when he was unsure of something. Or frustrated. Or bored."

    It's nice to know that even Severus Snape can be unsure. Even though he's trying to hide it XD But we know better, Snapey! Oh, and btw, I've made it my personal mission to review every chapter of this story, because I've read it so many times on ff.net and enjoyed it so much that it's high time I give something back C:

Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4 05 Sep 2007
Reviewer: Sweartoad (Signed)
    Yay - Snape is taking the world into his own hands. Or at least, Harry Potter's world XD

    Fantastic - well, not what Harry has had done to him, but with no conflict there's no resolution, right? Plus we all know he'll survive and have Snape right there to comfort and protect him XD

Title: Chapter 5: Chapter 5 05 Sep 2007
Reviewer: Sweartoad (Signed)
    Noo! Harry died! And then lived again! Hang on, this is starting to sound vaguely familiar ... XD

    Me and my cat (who is sitting here reading this too) have a lot of love for this story. Well, except for my cat, who can't read XD

Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6 05 Sep 2007
Reviewer: Sweartoad (Signed)
    There are so many "aww' moments in this story but I think I'll just pick my favourite:

    "A thrill of fear went through the boy, but he knew better than to drink things offered to him when he'd been bad. Last time Aunt Petunia had told him to "drink up," and had given him something yellow that smelt of lemons, it had burned his throat and his stomach. He'd been sick for days, and not allowed in the house."

    One of many perfect lines in a perfect story. Harry's treatment at the hands of his relatives is so ... enraging X( I have no love for them. D:

    "Severus whirled to face the man. "Yes! I could do a better job. Not that I will, mind you. I have no desire to become a father."

    Oh Snapey - you've just talked yourself into the corner, right there XD And Dumbledore! You are so Slytherin, you sneaky old codger you! (to steal the phrase XD)

    That's it Dumbledore - manipulate him XD It's for his own good, anyway C:

    "There was merest curiosity about him," Severus said. "Not covetousness."

    You LIAR XD. Anyways, Snape really does need to get used to the idea of having Harry around, doesn't he ... what with pulling Harry out from under the bed and needlessly terrifying him and all that. NOT GOOD INTERPERSONAL SKILLS, SNAPEY. No no no XD
