About me:

Hi, I'm Gatewaygirl (Gg) of Livejournal, InsaneJournal, Dreamwidth, etc. My first post here was my old, epic Severitus challenge piece, Blood Magic. I don't write a lot of gen, but that one makes up for it in length. :-)

I recently posted a new (much shorter) story in that universe, Blood and Choice.

When Severus Snape finds a certain brat-who-lived out after curfew the year after Voldemort's return, it starts a chain of events that he wouldn't have imagined in his wildest dreams. Or nightmares.

    And what is Harry up to, I wonder?

    Incidentally, you have Harry was a Parseltongue. It should be Parselmouth, as I expect you know. (Parseltongue is the language, not the speaker.)

    ROFL!

    I don't know what else to say. I'm surprised no one came downstairs to ask why I was laughing madly.

    And it is now officially Too Late to be reading. Good job.

    It worries me that he hasn't read the note from Narcissa yet.

    Nicely done!

    (You, not Severus, though he wasn't bad.)

    I'm really happy to see another writer do something with that dead basilisk, BTW!

    Argh! And now I must wait with your earlier readers. *sigh* On the other hand, I might get to bed before 2, tonight.

    I am eagerly awaiting the next chapter! :-)

Severus Snape is a complicated man, but when it comes to protecting Harry Potter's life, there is nothing more simple than succeeding. When Severus finds himself caring for the boy after an attack, how will their relationship change? Snape-Harry mentor fic.

    Oh, I really like Ron here!

By third year, Harry was starting to think he knew his own identity. Then, the discovery of an old secret threatens to throw his world into turmoil, yet again. Nor is he the only one who finds his life affected...

Who is he, anyway?

    Mm. I like Harry's reaction. And the conversation between Remus and Severus is good.

Twenty years after the War, Harry is a solid family man who's taken in one more. In helping this damaged little boy, he finds himself thinking about his old professor, quite a bit.

    I very much enjoyed this! (Stayed up a few hours late to finish it last night, in fact, reading the whole thing in one go.) I like how Harry and some of the other characters of his generation have neuroses from the war, without being out of control. Harry is a normal, stable family man -- but you don't walk up behind him (or Ginny) without saying you're there.

    As it went on, I enjoyed the little side bits that never mean anything to Harry, like Dream-Snape's irritation that Harry had been given a choice about going back, or Kreacher's comment about souls.

Two stubborn wizards are stuck together trying to kill Voldemort for good. The Wizarding world thinks he's already dead, and Snape & Harry discover that Dumbledore didn't quite have all the answers. At least, not the right ones.

    Great job! I really enjoyed this story. It was a perfect blend of creativity and canon elements. Oh, and Snape's petty vengeance on Aunt Marge was perfect!
