    You've got us worried, now! PLEEZE, can we have another chapter soon, so we can find out what happens with Sirius?!
    (In the meantime, hope your summer's going well!)

    Oh, if I could give you a "20" for this beautiful, beautifully written chapter, I would.

    Since you'd mentioned Harry's album of pictures hidden under the floorboards in the previous chapter, I was surprised when you didn't include them here. It seemed like Harry should've mentioned it when Snape asked him "Anything else?"
    (By the way--good chapter!)

    Dammit, I had written a LOVELY review, but it got lost somehow, when the evil wizards in the ether mischievously removed my sign-in, and POOF!
    Well, let me give you the "10" you so richly deserve here, and I'll try to reproduce what I'd written.

    I REALLY LOVED the second half especially, with Flitwick and McGonagall! Your throwaway line, "...the rumored sightings of Irma Pince and Argus Filch, reportedly observed sharing a cozy tryst at Madam Puddifoot's the previous weekend", was deliciously funny!
    Who knew the giant squid had such a weakness for toast? Delightful! And I relished the phrase: "...shared the languid task of tossing the treats to the nearest glistening wet tentacle that trembled in squelchy anticipation."
    Delicious writing! Keep it up!

    What an entertaining story! I really enjoy your vision of Snape and Harry. This is coming along quite nicely.
    A very minor correction: It's 'either/or - neither/nor'. So when Snape is asking Harry what disguise he wishes to keep to, 'or' should be changed to 'nor' in: "No one has seen us yet, except for Mercup, of course, and he will neither care nor comment if we change."

After the Battle of Hogwarts, Harry has one last job to do.

    Oh, I love this story, simply love it. What a wonderful thing to imagine.
    You did it very well. I shall "favorite" this.

After Harry is caught for exploding a cauldron in 2nd year Potions, Snape insists he keep a firm hand on the boy he must secretly protect. However, he discoveres that there is more to the twelve year old than unruliness and disrespect. Similarly, Harry learns from and gains a new perspective of his professor.

    Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!! Now that I've finally gotten to your last chapter (with none already waiting), I'm chewing on my fingernails as pitifully as little Harry!
    Seriously? Keep up the good work!

    Author's Response:

    LOL..Poor Harry and his nibbling habits. ;)  I'm so glad you're enjoying my story.  Thanks for sticking through all twenty-eight chapters!  I've got the next chapter planned out and will begin working on it soon! 

    Thanks for taking the time to leave a review!

    I realize you wrote this months ago, so my criticism here is probably moot. Nevertheless, it seemed to me that as Potions Master, Professor Snape would have used the entire chemical name as in "It is only hydrogen peroxide", rather than the more common abbreviational use of just "peroxide". He never forgets his role as teacher--that's what you're showing us here, after all--and I believe he would consider it sloppy and unprofessional not to use its proper name.

    Author's Response: Noted and adjusted.  Thanks for pointing it out!

Severitus - Snape knows he is Harry’s father, but his desperate attempts to gain custody fail. He vows that he will protect his son, by any means.
