    Hehe. Loved it! Especially the place where Harry lists all the girls he's been with - I was laughing like mad. And Snape's embarrassment was just as amusing.

    I was a little confused about the 'wife' at first, but then you explained it all nicely and I didn't mind at all Snape having a wife, chuckling and giving Harry the Talk. :)

    Author's Response: I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for the review. :)

Reviewer: Ramelia (Signed)
    Perhaps I've been traumatized by some truly awful Harry-is-Dumbledore's-son stories, and in consequence, I don't particularly like the idea. However, Snape and Harry as brothers is not something one comes across too often, so, basically, that's what really made me warm up to this story despite some plot points being terribly confusing and a slightly OOC Snape. I'm sure that the original story would fill in the blanks, but I'm content at the moment to take the characterisation and plot for granted, seeing that the narrative flowed nicely, and Snape's pov actually helped in terms of understanding what's going on.

    (Do we ramble, or what? Meh.)

    My point of all this is that it's very nice story, and the dynamics between the three men were particularly enjoyable. :) Well done!

His Boy by lastcrazyhorn starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 20]
Just a short drabble about Severus's newly adopted son, Harry Potter. It can either be read as part of my story , "A Means of Survival," (posted at FF.net), or it can be read on its own. I purposely made the style a bit ambiguous for that very reason. During HP & COS.

    *sugar overload alert*

    Hehe. I'm not big on reading about Snape who's made of mush and sap, but hey, we all love to see him a little (over)protective of Harry, no? (Yes.)

    Though the nightmare factor is so widely (over)used in fanon, and the "another evening" scene would have just as nicely fit at the beginning without disrupting the flow of the story, I really enjoyed this little fic. It's very sweet and heart-warming. :)

Reviewer: Ramelia (Signed)
    Oh, I like the idea of a hardworking Harry. Figures that he would try to prove himself to Snape exclusively - Snape definitely gives him the motivation to, doesn't he? :) I couldn't, however, imagine Harry quitting Quidditch because he wanted to study so much, though, because it's something that would've kept him sane in the middle of all that mental exertion, you know? But apart from that, it's a lovely start, and this part was my favourite: "Harry had three goals in life. Snog Cho Chang, become an Auror and kill Voldemort, not necessarily in that order." Hehe. :)

    Author's Response: According to my brother, that's how teenage boys think. MAybe quitting Quidditch wasn't the best idea, I just needed a way to show how seriously Harry was taking this.

    I'm really enjoying your characterisation of Harry who acts, well, maturely. And though I couldn't see Snape crying over a photo album, no matter how bitter the memories, it was a lovely scene. Surprisingly enough, though I'm not big on the H/Hr pairing, it does come about naturally in your story, so I'm not complaining. :) About time Harry found something that would take his mind off from all that studying, though I don't know if that's possible with Hermione around. :D

    Nitpick: "But by the time the potion, a simple burn slave, was finished.." I believe it's "salve" rather than "slave." :)

    Author's Response:

    I like mature!Harry and sad!Snape. I really like Hr/H and even through you don't really I'm glad you can still find it right in this stroy. :) You're right though, I tried studying with my former boyfriend a few times, it never ended up working. I did not mean "burn slave" I don't really even want to think about what that implies.

Reviewer: Ramelia (Signed)
    Lovely ending to the story. I'm not sure I understood what the last line implied, but I like the mystery. :)

    (Another nitpick: "His greaving was over with." Grieving, I suppose?)

    All in all, it was a wonderful story. Well done!

    Author's Response: Great, the mystery is suppose to be there. And yes, I did mean Grieving. That you very much for your reviews!

Crooked Line by Bil starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 40]
He knows it's not normal: Normal people don't live with these worries, normal people aren't afraid all the time. An attempt to keep Snape out of Azkaban after the war has unexpected consequences. 2010 Challenge Fest Entry. Response to the Student Snape Challenge by Foolish Wishmaker.

Title: Chapter 1: Crooked Line 02 Jul 2010
Reviewer: Ramelia (Signed)
    A little... eerie. What I most admire about this fic is that you've managed to give it that distinctly 'confined' feel: being trapped in one room, being trapped in your own head. This story put in mind of the Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, really. Severus' need for orderliness, for repetition does seem a bit autism-like.

    Anyway. I really enjoyed this story, particularly the dynamics between Harry and Severus. Well done!

Reviewer: Ramelia (Signed)
    When I started reading this... well, the moment Snape called Harry by the first name, I was a bit like: "Woah! Woah! What's happened? Where am I? What's that giant purple marshmallow doing behind the window?" Well, not really, but it certainly was a bit of a shock, to put it mildly. Guess the AU warning isn't there for nothing, is it?

    The one thing I didn't understand was why Harry was calling Snape 'dad', and how he had ended up with him in the first place. But hey, I'm willing to take that for granted - it's too sweet to fuss about it. :)

    Though I do not like - to put it mildly, again - a victimized Snape that's put up on a pedestal for everyone to admire while Sirius is trodden in the mud, I did sort of warm up to this universe, especially the friendship between James and Severus and a 'good' Aunt Petunia. I also enjoyed the flashbacks; though I understand they were there simply to explain the background of this universe, a story within a story always makes for a more interesting read. :)

Reviewer: Ramelia (Signed)
    The point-me spell as a way of finding people is very fanon. It's used to find which direction North is, actually. Just thought I'd point that out. Apart from that, I'm really enjoying the way things have turned out. You've done a great job of keeping Snape somewhere between his usual bastard persona and someone who actually cares. Even if it's Harry. :)

    Author's Response:

    Huh, I guess I learned something then. :)
    Hee hee, thanks! I was worrying that I made Snape too OOC.

    Aw, it's over. Shame. I liked Harry getting on Snape and Malfoy's nerves. :) Nice story.

    Author's Response: Yep, I was quite distraught when I finished writing this. Hehe, glad you liked it! I don't suppose you know any other stories where Harry annoys Snape and Draco? Other than that fic "Sue Me".
