With a strange potion, new location and the odd Muggle Studies Professor along for the ride, Harry's in for an interesting summer, but why is Snape here? Dumbledore had better pray he gets all three back in one piece! Humor, Angst, No Mary Sues, No Romance, no real plot.

Takes Place: 6th summer - Snape flavour: Snape is Kind, Snape is Stern

Title: Chapter 1: The Situation 06 Mar 2015
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    Interesting first chapter. So Peter Pettigrew is dead and Remus took him down. That's certainly poetic justice. I like the idea of Harry going to America. The deaging should help conceal his identity, too.

    Author's Response: Yes, I thought so too. :) Thank you for your review!

Title: Chapter 2: Introducing the Muggle Studies Professor 06 Mar 2015

    Hoppity is an odd name but she sounds like a Hoppity. She has that Dumbledore eccentricity. I look forward to seeing how well she relates to Muggles.

    Author's Response: Thank you for giving her a chance!

    I wondered when Snape would turn up. He must have just been knocked out when he was captured and not badly hurt. Since he was raised in a Muggle household, I wouldn't think that being disguised as a Muggle would be too difficult of Severus. Don't know how he and Hoppity will get on though. They sound as different as night and day.

    Author's Response: Yes, Snape should be able to pretend to be a Muggle alright, but he has been a wizard for over a decade. He and Hoppity are certainly opposites! Thank you for your review!

Title: Chapter 4: The Deaging Potion 06 Mar 2015
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    I love the description of the taste of the potion - like sunshine, grass, swing sets and excitement. Things I loved as a child. I also liked that things looked bigger to Harry. It's always a shock to me when I see something that I remember as a child now when I am an adult and am stunned how much smaller it is than I remember years ago.

    Author's Response: Absolutely spot on! Thanks for noticing and commenting!

Title: Chapter 5: Introductions 06 Mar 2015
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    If Albus thinks that Harry's proximity to Voldemort affects his scar, I wonder if Snape's mark will be affected by being further away from Voldy? I also wonder what the tea set is for? Looking forward to finding out.

    Author's Response: I think Snape's Dark Mark will be better as well due to the distance. :) Thanks for the review.

Title: Chapter 6: Welcome to British Airlines 06 Mar 2015
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    I liked that the airport and plane ride were written from Harry's point of view. So he primarily thinks like a 6 year old and has to concentrate if he wants to access his teenage memories and abilities. It was fun reading his viewpoint of the experience.

    Author's Response: Yes, it is an interesting situation for Harry to be in. I plan to have the potion revert him to his 16 year old consciousness at some point. We shall see. :)

    The second plane trip was a surprise. At least they were able to get something to eat during the layover between flights. Snape won't be happy about a commuter flight. They can be bumpier than the bigger planes.

    Author's Response: Grumpy Snape was so amusing to write. Thanks for your comments!

    Author's Response: Hehe grumpy Snape is so fun to read and write about. To me, he has to be a bit grumpy to be in character. :)

Title: Chapter 8: Not Another Plane Ride 06 Mar 2015
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    That was a long day. They must be glad to finally have reached their destination. I was surprised that Snape was as patient as he was with all that went on. He isn't know for patience at the best of times.

    Author's Response: Yes, Snape sure isn't very patient. I hope that he will mellow out and become more patient as the story progresses.

Title: Chapter 9: Settling In 06 Mar 2015
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    I enjoyed everyone's perspectives of their new location. Hoppity's adventure in grocery shopping was especially funny. If she is going to be cooking and cleaning the Muggle way as well as working as a secretary, she is going to be really busy.

    Author's Response: Snape will help out, as he is the more competent one. :)
