    Wow!That was a truly brilliant story about House-traits, thank you for posting it!

After getting sixteen year old Harry out of jail over the summer, Severus Snape must deal with a number of things, including: trying to maintain a relationship with his future wife, building a relationship with his future step-son, and trying to figure out the ever-changing enigma that is Harry Potter.

    Lovely, thank you for this story.

The Potioneer’s Society - a name that conjures images of prestige, brilliance, and fame. But beneath its shining complexion lies something sinister. Evelyn, having fled from the witch hunters to London, has uncovered what very few within the Potioneer’s Society even know: Being brewed in secret within its hallowed halls is a potion that will spell disaster for the Wizarding race should it ever fall into the wrong hands. Unfortunately, the wrong hands are the ones brewing it. With nobody to turn to, she calls Severus Snape and Harry Potter back in time once more, to the year 1613. A daring plan arises immediately, but with only fourteen days to accomplish the break-in of the 17th century, they soon realize that the enemy has everything to gain, and they have everything to lose.

    I really liked the shy and closemouthed Severus there at the end. I am keeping my fingers crossed for the two of them getting together ...
    Thank you for a wonderful story!

    Author's Response: I am glad you liked the 'shy' Severus! I rewrote the end of this chapter a little late in the game, so it is nice to hear that you were pleased with it. And thank you for the wonderful feedback Eszther!

Petunia finally has an excuse to get rid of Harry, who finds himself in another abusive home. But then there is Severus living nearby, who - at first reluctantly - will try to help the boy. Will they find common ground?

    Thank you for a unique start and a IMO very fitting description of Petunia. I am looking forward to read more from you.

    Author's Response: Thank you, next chapter will be soon ;)

Being sent to stay in a psychiatric ward at St. Mungo’s isn’t exactly the most enjoyable way to spend a summer, so naturally, Harry’s pretty angry when he finds out that’s his destination, regardless of whether or not it might be good for him. Facing a full summer of being cut off from the Order’s plans, Harry’s even taken to envying Snape, because at least Snape knows what is going on. But when Harry arrives at St. Mungo’s and discovers that a fire has changed his destination from the teen ward to the adult ward, everything is turned upside down. Enter his roommate - suicidal, depressed, and none other than Severus Snape. They are both willing to bet that their summer will be a total disaster, and maybe it will be, but even the surest of gamblers are not always right.

    Thank you for a wonderful, perfectly paced story. It is very beliefable how they learn to trust each other slowly. (you made me want to strangle retriever puppies ... just joking, I know the animagus and the auror are at fault here)

    Author's Response: GAH - I MADE YOU WANT TO DO WHAT? Oh ... right, kidding. *wipes sweat off forehead* Haha, thanks for the review Eszther! I am glad you feel it's believable, and feel the story is well paced. It's been a very difficult one for me to write, as time has not been something I've had on my side and I have to wrack my brains as to where the story is going every time I get the chance to write another chapter! I've been worried it's going too slowly, so this comment means a lot. Cheers, Whitetail.

Harry Potter is located in London in the dead of night. How exactly did he end up there, and what has he been doing? Well, any kid with half a brain knows not to talk to strangers.

    Heartbreakingly beautiful story, thank you!

    Author's Response: Thank you so much!

Dark secrets and an even darker past threaten to destroy the boy on whom the entire wizarding world has pinned their hopes. Can Severus Snape find it within him to heal and accept the broken child of his nemesis, and in the process, ultimately heal and accept himself? (AU-ish, but follows canon. Severitus - mentor/adoption - WARNING: mentions sexual abuse, but no details)
