- Great update! Poor Snape having his mind invaded like that! I was amazed he wasn't furious - I'd been expecting him either to be that, or else to be unconcious on the ground. Really nice ending too. (:
Author's Response: oh yes indeed, Snape here asks me to tell you that he was actually quite mad at the little brat, but really too tired to waste energy on shouting. For now. Ahem. :-)

- well, that certaintly wasn't the reaction I'd been expecting from Snape - but I'd forgotten that Harry hadn't yet found out about Snape's involvement in the prophecy. I thought it was really good! Ron and Hermione were done really well and I loved the cat stuff. Also the 'insecure Snape' is written brilliantly too!

- Aww. The endings so sad. I love Hermione though!

- Squee!! What a brilliant ending! Can't wait for the update. Snape's fury was really funny.
Author's Response: thank you ;-)

Author's Response: thanks ;-)

- Thanks again both of you! :) Great update as always - I thought the truth crystal was ok; I was actually surprised you didn't show more of them both - but I suppose they both already knew most of each other's motives anyway!
Author's Response: well for now they have, though the issue will probably have to be discussed from time to time, I guess that's how it works, you can expect it not to be some work ;-)
When Severus Snape finds a certain brat-who-lived out after curfew the year after Voldemort's return, it starts a chain of events that he wouldn't have imagined in his wildest dreams. Or nightmares.

- This is really humerours. The 3 way conversation was great. I like the way you've slotted muggle idioms into the story.
| Title: Chapter 13: That Runs to the Promised Land | 02 Mar 2008 |
| Reviewer: tabbycat (Signed) |
- This story is going really well! It's very intricate and the extra characters are great. Not too emotional but definitely the right mix of relationships. Will we see more of Alastor?

- 'Severus was tempted to lend the thing to Longbottom for use as a cauldron stand in his next potions’ lesson. ‘Maybe’, ‘perhaps’, ‘possibly’, ‘perchance’, ‘conceivably’, ‘in theory’, ‘rumored’, ‘believed to be’…offhand he couldn’t come up with another synonym for ‘we don’t really know’, and they’d managed to fit them all into a single sentence.'
So true! Very funny.
