    What a wonderful story. It sounds like there is more to Crookshanks than we thought. I especially like the idea of Lily persuading Severus to try to live past the war and find someone else to love. Harry getting to see his Mum at the same time was great, too.

    Author's Response: Thank you for taking the time to review!  I can't see Lily abandoning James in the afterlife, but think she would want Severus to find his own happiness.  

Love you more by Hopeless Wanderer starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 13]
Five-year-old Harry has a delicious surprise for Severus, and Mr. Scarecrow is about to attend his first Halloween party ever.

Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    Wow. Poor Severus. That was a different kind of horror. Little Harry was as adorable as his Dad thinks and the interaction with the staff was really cute. Hopefully, the house elves will manage to keep Harry from future culinary experiments in the future though.

    Author's Response: Poor Severus indeed, he's the prime example of what parents sometimes give up for their children. You're right, hopefully, the house-elves will be enough damage control when Harry ends up sneaking around the kitchens again. Thanks for reading and have a nice day!

Past Featured Story A Feather of Hope by Anthezar starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 16]
Halloween must’ve had a hit list. ‘Who can we screw with today? Excellent idea, Fate, our old favorite: Harry Potter.’

Not even having a Godfather in Snape could stop the evil from conspiring against him.

    I like the idea of Snape as a protector of children. He must have had some concern for the students in his House though we never saw that part of him in canon.

Past Featured Story The Cursed Photograph by Lemon Curd starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 22]
One foggy Halloween day, the Dursley family visit a circus. Harry, left to his own devices, goes to a 'Spooky Tent' where, among other exhibits, he sees a cursed photograph. Is it fake? Or is the black-robed man in the photo really a living person, forever trapped in a photo?

    Nice first chapter. I wonder how Snape knew it was Harry?

Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    Interesting. So, is that really Albus? Petunia should remember the name.

    That was a fun story. I like that Snape and Harry have become friends. Had you considered a sequel?

Past Featured Story A Condition Of Duality by JAWorley starstarstarstarhalf-star [Reviews - 30]
Once upon a time a new headmaster dragged a young man in his charge back from the depths of darkness. Now, years later, another boy has turned up to school in poor shape and the Headmaster thinks it’s time for Severus Snape to pay forward what was once done for him, even if said Potions Master goes kicking and screaming all the way. Written for round two of the 2019 Tri-W tournament (even though it’s submitted late). If you like this story don't forget to go vote for it in Site News.

Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    I like the way you started with Severus' story and used it to mirror Harry's. Naturally, Minerva and Albus would think of Snape as the one to try to convince Harry to talk. It was probably a good idea since sympathy didn't work. I wonder if Snape will ever tell Harry how similar their childhoods were?

Title: Chapter 2: The Same But Different 09 Jan 2020
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    I like that Hermione and Ron defended the way Snape has been treating Harry. Hopefully, Snape will break through Harry's defenses soon. It sounds like it is getting to them both.

Title: Chapter 3: Two Stories Are One 10 Jan 2020
Reviewer: bridgeportfox (Signed)
    I liked the idea that Remus and James had actually been undercover friends with Snape. Too bad he didn't realize it until then. And, of course, I like the idea that Harry and Snape had a better relationship instead of hating each other.

Wonders Never Cease by Hopeless Wanderer starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 43]
“It’s like playing a game,” Harry said. “A judging game. You sit and listen and at the end of the day you’ll decide whether Severus Snape deserves to die or not.” His father had spent his whole life trying to protect Harry from the outside world, from himself, at the expense of his own life. Now it was Harry's turn to at least try.

    Good first chapter. I have never read one where Potter is still alive when Snape comes to the house. It's an interesting twist.

    Author's Response: Yeah, I don't think I have ever read one with James Potter and Snape interacting after the attack as well. Oh well, I'm glad it turned out like this. Thanks for reading! Chapter two will be up shortly.
