Before Harry arrives at Hogwarts, the faculty have a meeting and decide that Harry will need a mentor to help him adjust, keep him out of trouble, and make protecting him easier. They decide that this person should the Head of the House into which Harry is sorted, presumably Minerva McGonagall. But things, of course, don't turn out as planned, and Harry is harder to deal with than anyone expected. Nobody asked him if he wanted a mentor, after all...

NOTE: This story has a prologue. It is not necessary to the plot of the story, but if you wish to read it, it is called(predictably enough) 'Prologue to Life as Dictated by a Talking Hat'

    Does the infirmary have a private room for a patient that needs to be quarantined? The castle could probably make one if needed. Of course that depends on whether or not Harry tells anyone about the room being too big.

    Author's Response: Hmm...an idea. The problem is, as you said, Harry\'s pride. We\'ll see! (I don\'t know yet either lol)

    Oh Severus is just asking for it.
    An hour to say "anything"?

    BTW: I'm currently reading the latest Anita Blake book. It rocks! Edward is so cool!

    Author's Response: LOL yeah. I wonder what Harry'll have to say. Woot!! Go Anita Blake!! Yeah I haven't finished the series - I just ran out of the ones I bought. I'm on Incubus Dreams, but am putting off reading it because last time the series ate my life for like a week and a half. lol. And I agree, Edward is AWESOME. However, I really love books where my favorite character is the main, which is the case in this series - go Anita!!! She's so awesome. I like how she's totally capable of keeping up with the men, but not because she has equal physical strength to them (that would be unrealistic) but through force of will, magic, and firearms. She's just awesome. :-)

    Poor Harry! Finding out the ugly truth about his "family"

    Author's Response: Yeah. That was seriously yucky. He had to figure it out sometime, though. Thanks for the review!

Desperate to escape his guilt and nightmares after the third task, Harry transforms into a hawk by accident and ends up breaking both wings and suffering partial memory loss. He is found by Snape, and while the professor nurses him back to health discovers the truth about Severus and who are really his friends and enemies at Hogwarts.

    Draco is SUCH a F*CKING BRAT!!!

    Author's Response:

    I agree, he's as nasty as they come!

Title: Chapter 6: Detentions and Dreams 30 Mar 2009
Reviewer: mithrilandtj (Signed)
    Wow. I loved the punishments!
    Can't wait to see what happens when Sev finds out the truth behind his familiar.

    Author's Response:

    Good, i wa skind of worried that I did too much to them, but guess not. 

    There will be lots of fireworks and angst when THAT finally happens. 

    Check out what happens next between the Boy Who Became A Hawk and our snarky professor.


Title: Chapter 7: Hawk Speak 01 Apr 2009
Reviewer: mithrilandtj (Signed)
    I loved The whole sniping match they had in Sev's quarters.
    More please!

    Author's Response: More will be coming as soon as I write it1 Thanks for reviewing!

Title: Chapter 12: Things Remembered 08 Apr 2009
Reviewer: mithrilandtj (Signed)
    If Freedom told Sev of all of his dreams, Sev would figure it out... animagus

    The staff dinner was priceless.

    Author's Response:

    You're right, but then it would be over too soon, and that's not what I want.  Harry still needs to find out a few more things about Dumbledore, Ron and Hermione, and Lily and Sev and James.

    Glad you liked the dinner, I loved it!


Title: Chapter 14: Prophecy of Lies 11 Apr 2009
Reviewer: mithrilandtj (Signed)
    That fricking prophecy is FALSE!?!?!?

    Boy, Is Albus in for a reckoning when Harry is a boy again! Old fart!

    Author's Response:

    Terrible isn't it?

    And oh yes, Albus will be in serious trouble with Harry when the hawk becomes a boy again.  More than the old man's office could be dstroyed.


Title: Chapter 16: Umbridge vs. Freedom 15 Apr 2009
Reviewer: mithrilandtj (Signed)
    LOL! Too bad Freedom can't talk to the House Elves! I bet they hate toad-bitch too! Couldn't Snape make a suggestion to the elves?

    Author's Response: They do not like her at all, and Snape could, but the elves are bound not to hurt the professors or the Headmistress, unfortunately.  It never said so in the books, but I would asume they are bound to the school and faculty like other elves are bound to a family.  Except Dobby, who is free.
