This is beautiful, sad, but beautiful. And you made both Harry and Snape very realistic. I love this story.
After the Dobby incident at the beginning of the second book, Harry runs away, and Snape kidnaps him. In an old-fashioned house with no comforts and a huge black dog, Harry finds himself at Snape's mercy as Snape plays mind games and makes Harry live through different scenarios. Though Snape seems crazy and psychotic, Harry begins to see reasons behind Snape's sporadic behavior. There is corporal punishment, but it is different from what I've written before. This is a Mean!Snape story for the most part. If you're looking for a cuddly story, go elsewhere please.

This is a perfect ending :) I love the way you managed to write a mean Snape, yet made it believable that Harry would love him. It was nice to watch the slowly changing of their relationship. You really handled it perfectly. I have read your other story before this and really liked it, but when you posted this it became even more favourite in my case. In fact, I like this kind of Snape (not as a person, but as a story-character) much more than some of the cuddling loving Snapes that in the end aren't Snapeish at all (I suppose part of it is Rowling's fault. I always expected that Snape loved Lily in some way, but when she just thrown the story on us like that, I felt strangely deceived, as it somehow made Snape look as a poor victim of bad destiny, which he is not, or at least not entirely. And now we have there the Snapes that would buy Harry a silver-green plushy snake only seconds after finding out that the Dursleys don't like him or that Voldemort had hurt him, never mind that he hated Harry for years before.) All right, I guess I got carried away a bit. Oh, by the way, the adoption was really beatuful - and very well handed, again. I don't know if I wish for a sequel, because this is so beautiful piece that I wouldn't want it spoiled with a bad sequel and for me, the story is quite closed. But if you have a good idea and feel for it, write one and I'm sure it will be good. Anyway, good luck in more writing! :)
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'

That was brilliant :) Well, I'm a bit suprised that Harry is making so many mischieves - with his background, I would have thought that he would be very careful not to anger somone, but perhaps his approach is different. Or perhaps now that he has friends for the first time, he just decided not to take it anymore - and misinterpreted Snape for one more abuser.
It's very funny to see the war between Harry and Snape, but it's also a bit sad. While I would certainly wish Harry to win the "war" in making his life most miserable, it seems that he is doing it at least partly to prove that Snape as another big adult is not to be trusted. So far, Snape has been coping with it quite well - it might seem a bit harsh to give Harry a punishment like this and especially on his only second week in the school, but unfortunately he has to set an example. I'm only worrying that this will escalate - Harry taking revenge on Snape because of the detentions, Snape assigning more, Harry taking more revenge etc. And while I really shouldn't approve of Harry's actions, I just understand him. Harry shouldn't have lied to his friends, though. I mean, it's understandable as he doesn't trust easily and the abuse is the thing he really wants to hide, but still, it's not particularly nice to lie somebody like this and making them stand up for you by lying. They would have probably helped him just as well if he had told them the truth, but it's very unpleasant to know that you had been defending someone and he just lied to you... it makes you feel stupid and angry. I believe that Blaise would have also tried to explain that Snape was probably meaning well. Well, Harry was acting slytherin and probably doesn't really realized the difference because he thinks of Snape as mean and dangerous, but I'm affraid it will eventually come back to him in a bad way. And I'm afraid that when Harry makes something really bad, Snape's patience will break and it will end badly (the canon Snpe would have already choped Harry into several smelling potions at least ten times now). And I know he is trying to gain Harry's trust and not act in anger, but everybody has some breaking point.
BTW, I'm not sure, but did Severus apollogize for the first hours when he though of Harry as a spoiled and arrogant brat and treated him as one? I know, Harry didn't behave perfect as well, but they have to start somwhere.
And it's nice to see that evenwit hallthe detentions, Harry is (very, very slowly) starting to think of Snape as not an ultimate threat. I'm looking forward to the next chapter.
Author's Response: Harry's pretty much decided that staying out of trouble is impossible, and he might as well do what he wants. What'll happen will depend entirely on what the characters decide to do. Hopefully Snape will figure out that assigning more detentions is not getting him anywhere, or Harry will decide that he's sick of detention. I, too wonder how long Snape's patience and understanding will last. We'll have to see. (Harry and Snape have remained mum on the topic, so far, even to me. :-) )And no, Snape has not yet apologized. It's not something he's good at, but I think he'll get there. Thanks so much for your long + detailed review!! I love hearing what people think about my story. :-) I also hope Harry's friends will be understanding. He's not entirely lying, after all, (he really is angry about the detentions); he's just not telling the whole truth.

But that's just awful! How could have Dumbledore done this? Yes, rationally I understand some of his reasoning, but still. Poor Harry and Severus. Good chapter, by the way. Your Fawkes character is really nice.
Author's Response: Dumbledore has made a grave mistake and now he will pay for it. harry will take a long time to forgive him this.
A rather light one-shot. I got infected with the Animagus fever that is raging around... Voldemort is gone, Harry is back at Hogwarts for his delayed 7th year, and Severus is alive (you didn’t expect otherwise from me, did you?) Beta-read by wonderful Jen aka Wellyuthink - thanks, Jen!

Well, that was really interesting and very unusual story! There aren't that many of "Harry being a squib" ones and this was very well handled. I liked your Voldemort, Snape, the trio... I liked almost everything there (the "almost" being there for some things I might think of in the future). I would say there could have been more interactions with the rest of people (teachers, other students etc.) but since the story has only ten chapters and this wasn't its focus, I can't really complain about it. Well done!

Oh sh*t!
Well, that was terrible... A good and very realistic story! I liked the way it is written; there are no long unnecessary introductions into the situation - you just showed the moment you wanted and nothing else; if the reader wants to know more, he has to create the backround story in his head himself.
I think the sequel is not needed, still, it's your choice.
Author's Response: Man, the first two sentences had me really scared! Glad you like it, I agree with you on the fact a sequel isn't needed, I also like the fact the whole background is left to the imagination and that's how it probably should stay. Thanks for a nice review:-)

Just a piece of random fun about what would happen if Snape had been the one to tell Harry that he was his father in Tug. Written in response to Taryn’s Star Wars challenge. This is just written by an insane author and is not cannon to my non-cannon fic. (Did that even make sense?) Thanks to J.K Rowling and George Lucas. (Gotta love those two!)

It IS a bit silly... but in a good way :) Funny.
Author's Response: Thanks. It actually cured some writers block, can you believe it?
What if Harry came across Slytherin’s monster before the diary incident… and asked it to help him deal with his least favorite teacher?

This is brilliant :) And the ending made me laugh very hard. Cute story :)
Author's Response: Thank you! When Hagrid finds out, he'll probably want one of the hatchlings for himself ;)... a baby basilisk might be even more fun than a baby dragon!
