    Awwww!! This made me so happy!! :0) I like the way Snape went about getting Harry things. He didn't know they were for him, so he didn't hold back on saying what he liked! Clever!

    Author's Response:

    I love your bunnies! Severus was very slytherin about that, but he was also expecting a good moment to tell Harry and posponed it until the end. Thanks a lot for your review! LL

    OOoooooo are they in for it! Man, and right after Harry got in trouble for missing class and everything. I think Snape'll wallop them. (Or at least Harry.) It'll take awhile to convince Harry that his Dad's not going anywhere, and being inconsistent is NOT the way to go about fixing that.

    Author's Response: Hello: Thank you very much for reading. Harry is in a lot of trouble, but first Snape is going to be sure that Harry understands that their relationship is not going to be broken by some misschief or missbehavior. I hope you like what will happen. Thanks for the review. I like your stories. LL

What if Harry thinks the Dursley's treatment of him is right and he doesn't want to be a freak or go to Hogwarts? What will happen when he gets there and is clearly intent on leaving again asap?

    VERY nice!! This is a really unique take on things! It's like the Dursleys aren't abusive, they just really believe magic is evil and dangerous and so are doing their best to train him out of it. Sure, Harry's still in the cupboard, but it's almost like he's just on time-out. I really like your character interactions, here. Dudley and Petunia defending Harry, explaining that it's not his fault, and Vernon acting as the authority. Sure, things are not great for Harry, and the household is a little weird, but it works. :0)

    Okay, so that is definitely abusive. Still, I like the different take you have on the abuse. Not all abuse comes because the adult hates the child. Sometimes they actually think they're doing what is best. That's the saddest part about it. On another, less depressing note, I love this different introduction into Hogwarts. The adults all act in character, yet also in such a way to make Harry feel worse. Poor Harry! He's so confused!

    Author's Response:

    Yeah you're they're definately abusive to him - even in chp 1 Harry thought he'd probably be allowed to eat that time- nice!

    Their relationships are very twisted. Even where there is some genuine affection/caringness it's spoilt (Vernon pats him on the shoulder but he cringes away/ Vernon feels sorry for him leaving him at the station but gets violent when he comes back). 

    They are all genuinely terrified of magic though with some justification, (this will be be developed in later chapters) they don't know how to deal with it.

    The terrible thing is that the Dursley's will have the potential to hurt Harry so much more seeing as he cares about them and respects what they think...

     


"Afterwards, Harry couldn't even remember how he had gotten into the Hospital Wing. He knew there had been blood in his face, maybe on his robes and definitely on his hands. (...) But all he had focused on was the way his heart was beating frantically and how he hadn't been able hear the pulse in his ears that had to be rushing and flowing. He hadn't been able to hear it. He hadn't been able to hear anything. He couldn't hear." - Plays in 3rd year.

    Good so far!! I like. And any troubles you have with English are remarkably subtle. You're doing great. The only thing I noticed is that Ron and Harry are 'third years' not 'third graders'. "Grades" are from the American system, and if they were 'third graders' they'd be like eight years old. Also, 'fake-step' doesn't need the dash. It's just a fake step, or, better, a trick step. But seriously, don't be discouraged, your English is pretty awesome. And so far the story's cool. :0)

    Author's Response:

    Hey! Thanks so much - first to comment. :)

    Thanks for pointing some things out - I am trying, but of course I'd do mistakes. I'm glad you told me about some of the things.

    I am happy you like the story so far - I'll try to provide everyone with more soon!


Voldemort was truly gone because of Severus' intelligence and Harry's luck. Facing the crying child of 15months, Snape doesn't want to entrust him to anyone else. Taking a child into his care so soon after Lily's death and with little to provide for him...it appeared to be a disaster in the making. Seven years later and Dumbledore can no longer stand it and goes to check on the pair. Nothing could prepare him for what he finds.

    I like!! I especially like the very beginning. The scene that worried DD so was perfect - you could see why DD was worried, but also that things could potentially turn out well. Well done!

Written for Lily Elizabeth Snape's challenge "Serpensortia," in which Snape's inner thoughts about the famous Dueling Club Match are revealed.

    Interesting take on the 'resorting' thing! I like!

    Author's Response: Thanks. I'm glad you like it.

The Golden Trio tries to prove that Snape really is a vampire one day. However, they learn a secret about Snape that sends Harry and Snape's dislike for each other into a talespin through a series of events.

    Interesting!! I have to admit that I have no idea what's really going on, but that's good - Harry's hallucinating, and doesn't know what's going on, and he's the character we're closest to, so we really shouldn't know, either. I like so far!!

    Author's Response: Thanks for the review. It's kind of pathetically sad, but as the writer I'm kind of confused at this point with Harry too. :) I might have Harry experience one more hallucination, but I'm not sure yet. Thanks again.

AU of HBP. Harry found out that he was Snape’s son two years ago, and he’s carefully concealed it. But now Snape is his Defense teacher, and Draco Malfoy is up to something, and Dumbledore is dying, and the final battle is coming up, and everything is getting very, very complicated.

    Hey!! Welcome to Potions and Snitches!! This is a great story!! (I am someonenotme on a different website, and so I've read and reviewed this already, but I thought I'd say hi.)

    Author's Response: Aw, thanks! I appreciate the welcome.

Severus gets promises out of Potter, then he gets them fulfilled! And somewhere in between, he gets a pet... It was supposed to be a oneshot, but it somehow ended as a multichaptered story (well, only three or four chapters, nothing big).

    I like it!! I live Jarvey, and how excited he got. I also really liked how Severus slows the gnomes down for him. :0)

    Author's Response: Thank you! Severus loves his familiar, does he not? Heehee. Mila
