    Uh Oh. . . the "P" word, hopefully Harry won't relapse into another panic attack--I know they talked earlier, but he is a bit on edge here.

    Looking forward to your next update.

    I love that firework dragon!

    So are we going to find out what Harry's plushie really is?

    YOu just have to feel for the poor kid. It is an awful feeling to know that you are "behind" and falling further and further behind no matter how hard you try. We know that it will be taken care of, but a 13. . . well, it's hard to trust that things will be better in "the future".

    Great chapter! Looking forward to your next update!

    That was Excruciating! Congratulations on writing that so well.

    Poor Harry--he didn't even WANT to talk to the girls. . .

    Looking forward to your next update.

    Ah. . . the joy of little brothers!

    I enjoyed the chapter!

    Author's Response: Yeah! *evilgrin* Thank you for your review!

Title: Chapter 76: Chapter 76 – Harry's room 04 Apr 2010
Reviewer: Mervoparkite (Signed)
    I loved this chapter--you know, I enjoy the show-Extreme make-over: home edition. And that's what I kept thinking about when they were putting Harry's room together. The "kids" rooms on that show are always AMAZING and it sounds like Harry's is even more so.

    Thanks for the update.

    Please, please, please, please, please, please post a sequel! (think big puppy dog eyes!} :-)

    V.

    Author's Response:

    I already have a small kind of sequel up on fanfiction(dot)net. It's called "For the love of his life". The real sequel will come in the late summer or autumn.

    Thank you very much for your review!


When 10-year-old Harry goes on an early morning shopping trip for Severus’s birthday present, he discovers a girl half-frozen in the snow in Diagon Alley. Little does he know that his encounter with the snow girl will change his family forever, for she harbors a secret past and a singular gift that could bring an enemy down upon them all unknowing. Tale partially based on “The Little Match Girl” by Hans Christian Anderson.

Sequel to A Wolf in Winter, part of the Snowy Encounters series.

    Good begining! I always loved the little match girl even though it was sad. So, will this be a sister for Harry?

    V.

    Author's Response: yes, it was one of my favorites too.  You never know about that, could be.  But you can read the next chapter and find out more about her.

Harry has defeated Voldemort, but at a high cost to himself.

    You know, I Love SC. I was a bit concerned that you had started another new story and not updated there. But, this is (as usual) amazinly well written and demonstrates wonderful emotion (and of course angst). I'm looking forward to "what's next" for our favorite duo. And how this will differ from SC.

    More soon, please, of both stories!

    V.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  No need to worry about SC...it's my top priority (writing priority, that is)!  I've done a lot of writing the past few weeks, or at least I feel that I have, and now that "Christmas at Spinner's End" is complete, I'm taking a week's holiday from writing.  But I am planning to work on a new chapter for SC later this week.  As for "Pair of Phoenixes", I've wondered if I should have even posted it, as I know I'll only be able to work on it in bits here and there, but nothing ventured, nothing gained, right?  Thanks again!

    Please take this as a compliment--that was heat-breaking. Amazing but "just rip my heart out-why don't you?"

    In SC you do so much from Harry's POV, but this is almost purely Sev (at least at this point) and I'm impressed. It is very well done.

    I'm looking forward to your next update.
    V.

    Author's Response: Thank you!  Yes, SC is much more Harry's POV, though there probably will be some more scenes from Severus, but in this story right now, I think Severus' POV is better for moving things along.  I'm glad you like it!
