Sequel, of sorts, to "Moment of Impact." Harry and Severus' relationship continues to develop through their correspondence during Harry's 6th year. Mainly follows canon but with the H/S mentor relationship established in "Moment of Impact."

    Oh, I LIKE these letters! I always have liked reading letters-they realy show a person's heart an soul very clearly.

    As for that Jinx--I can't wait for Harry to develop one and use it on Draco! ( and if Sev gets caught in the cross-fire of a class that will give him an excellent excuse to give Harry a "friendly" detention! )

    Thanks for starting "Part 2"

    I can't help it--these letters make me smile. I know "dark times" must be coming, but this is just wonderful.

    Thanks for the unique perspective and the update.

    I've said it before, but I LOVE these letters. What an amazing way to write a story!

    Lovely chapter!

    The ending, though, was rather sad. PLEASE, i am begging, give us a happy ending for Harry AND Sev!

    Author's Response:

    Have you read Moment of Impact (the story for which this is a sequel)?

    If you have, you know that there IS a happy ending for Harry and Severus.  I've changed only one little niggiing thing in the books--namely, Snape's fate.  Unfortunately, the other dead people stay dead.  

    Hope you'll keep reading!

    I love that song--had to have it playing while I went back and reread Sev's letter. Not quite crying my eyes out, but it was a close call.

    Truely lovely.

    Love that song and it is so fitting for most incarnations of Severus Snape.

    Thank you for posting.

Neither Snape or Harry are able to do what is expected of them.

    Fascinating!

    Author's Response: Thanks :)

"Perhaps a man with a prerogative to redeem himself in the memory of the mother would, in turn, give comfort to a child so justifiably desperate for it,” Dumbledore grinned at the other man’s unbidden expression of shock. “But when said like that, it hardly encompasses the depth of emotion I would expect when I see the person in question has cradled Harry Potter to sleep after a nightmare.” “I-I...” Severus scowled. “I was not cradling him.”

    HEHEHE!
    I loved the letters! Snape Obviously has no clue how to write to a young child-he's lucky harry had the where-with-all to use a dictionary to figrue those letters out.

    Thanks for the update.

Harry Potter is not a happy child. He carries a danger inside him that manifests itself soon after he arrives at Hogwarts, and it falls to his new Head of House, Severus Snape, to protect Harry, even from himself…

    Harry is a bit creepy at times, isn't he? Not nessasarily in a "dangerous" way--maybe just a bit other-worldly. . .still not the right term, but closer.

    I am really enjoying your take on the story, and I'm looking forward to your next update.

    Thanks for posting.
    V.

    Author's Response: You're very right about Harry (that's all I'm going to say at this point; I don't want to give spoilers :) ). I'm glad you're enjoying the story, thanks for letting me know!

Reviewer: Mervoparkite (Signed)
    Poor Harry!

    Now, I just have to wonder, how much of that "torture" (for that is what happened!) was brought on by whatever is inhabiting that scar of his. Did it taunt the Dursley's until they snapped? Or are the muggles just "that" evil?

    Great chapter! Thanks for the update!
    V.

    Author's Response: Hmmm, I can't really answer without giving spoilers... but there'll be more about Harry's home life in the upcoming chapters! Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
