Just before Christmas, Harry hears the basilisk again and believes he's going mad. Why else would he hear a voice that no one else can, talking about blood and death? Unable to take the stress, he flees the castle in the middle of a blizzard. Severus Snape follows him and they end up trapped in a cave, along with a very rare creature. Will they survive to see Christmas morning? Will they finally learn to set aside old grudges and impressions and learn the truth about each other? Christmas 2010 fic! Sick!Harry and sick!Severus, AU, mentor/apprentice, COS.

    Nice. Something of the Wise One seems to have rubbed off on Harry.

A family Christmas tradition brings about memories and a special evening for a father and his young son.

    That was lovely - and I enjoyed rereading your other story too.

    Beautiful. This is right up there with my very favourite post-battle stories, and a Christmas one as well! You set the scene perfectly, got the characters spot on for me and produced a wonderful mix of emotions.You posed an excellent question and integrated Snape very cleverly in the response. I couldn't ask for more.

    Author's Response: Thank you so much! It absolutely thrills me to hear that readers think I get things "right"! Especially characterization-- this is the first time I've tried writing Ron, Hermione, and Ginny, and I had my fingers crossed the whole time. ;-) Many thanks for taking the time to read and review!

Set in the seventies, "Christmas Past" is a glimpse at the unlikely friendship between a Gryffindor girl and a Slytherin boy, as seen by a Hogwarts House-Elf.

First of a three part series.

    Lovely. I can't believe how much story you packed into so few words.

    Author's Response: Thanks ^^ Little Hester is a really useful narrator lol; being at the hub of Hogwarts' house-elf life and a motherly figure to boot, she helped me zip through the introductory story ^^

'Discipline' means 'to teach' but Professor Severus Snape's detentions generally only teach his students not to push their luck. One December evening, however, Harry Potter learns something rather unexpected about his least-favourite teacher, something that will set in motion a chain of events which will heal rifts, change opinions and make this Yule a year to remember.

Set in Harry's third year, 'Christmas Present' is the second installment of a three-part series. All couples are canon and romance is only implied ;)

    I love this too. The diverse strands of the story mesh together well to make such a satisfying Christmas tale.(Potions Monster - thats definitely a title the students should have come up with!)

    Author's Response: Thanks ^^ I tend to write my stories organically; I start with one ides (in this instance the image of a suprised Harry walking into Severus' office to find his teacher asleep and surrounded by biscuits) and just let it develop naturally. 'Potions Monster', alas, isn't my own idea but I've seen it used in so many fics that I don't know who came up with it first lol!

In his first year at Hogwarts, Harry is the only Gryffindor who signs up to stay at school for Christmas. At Dumbledore’s suggestion, he is temporarily transferred to the Slytherin dorms so he won’t spend Christmas morning alone. In Severus Snape’s opinion, not one of the Headmaster’s better ideas…

    Very nice. A lovely peek inside Slytherin house and a glimpse of a protective Snape that left me wishing for more.

Snape and his family celebrate Christmas the only way they know how, very strangely. Includes a reindeer, Grinch, grumpy four-year-old, and lots of family love. *Set in Sword of Slytherin universe*

    Oh, Angel is so sweet. A lovely lighthearted, funny story, just right for Christmas.

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

An unexpected encounter in winter woods.

    Nice descriptive story. I like how the snow phoenix had mellowed Snape.

An accident the summer before 6th year puts Dumbledore's plans for Harry in motion sooner than planned. Will an unexpected truce with Snape better prepare Harry for what is to come? An introspective Snape mentors Harry fic with all the regular players, told from Harry's point of view. Slightly AU after OOTP.

    Another great chapter. You write the relationship between Harry and Snape so clearly that I can't imagine it not continuing.

    Characterisation seems good - I think I'm going to enjoy this.
