    Nice chapter. They are coming along. I'd love to know what Sev did to Harry's aunt and uncle......

Harry understands the meaning of loss. What he doesn't know, is that he also deserves to find.

    I love this and want more. Wish I was a writer. I want to see how Harry and Sev's relationship develops and how this change, one man's love for a child, his child, chnages Harry's outcome.....Is old moldy voldie suppose to be totally dead in this story?? I'd like to see a "happily ever after" for our boys.

In which Harry is half-vampire, Severus is inexplicably protective, and the author has no idea how to summarize the story.

    After coming home from an awful day at work with the start of a migraine, I wanted "comfort" stuff. Comfort drink, sweet iced tea, comfort food, grilled cheese sandwich, and a comfort read, your wonderful story. After my meds took effect I reread your story and remembered how much I love it and have missed it. Thank you for a wonderful read, made this day much better. Not that I'm pushing here, but please, please, please, update soon, what to know "the rest of the story." Have a great day.

Cauldron’s bubbled. Potions simmered. And Snape was yelling at Neville again. Just another ordinary day in Potions class, or so they all thought. When a potion reveals something out of the ordinary, Harry’s life is changed forever, and not in a positive way. Was it so unreasonable to ask that he be allowed to make it through sixth year like a normal teenager?
