About me:

Hi, I'm pretty new to fic writing so I'm sorry if my style is a bit scratchy sometimes. I'm aso terrible at updating to a schedule so I could post a new chapter every day for a week and then nothing for a couple of months.

I read almost exclusively P+S fics but I write whatever hits me so I'll probably be more prolific on ff.net

    This was a really great chapter, thanks. I'm looking forward to the next chapter :D

Uncle Vernon’s acting weird, and Snape has designs on making Harry the most obedient student Hogwarts has ever seen. Harry just wants a quiet summer to himself and to earn the money he needs for his school supplies, but he could only hope for something so simple. Entry into the Bingo Card Fic Fest.

    Hi- I just wanted to say that I adore this fic, I think I read it all through every time a chapter came out! I’ve missed it for the past few months, and it popped up again, so I’m going to behave and review it this time.
    Love the story! Particularly how uncomfortable HP is in this chapter with vernon being not quite himself

    I love snapes mental gymnastics at the start of this chapter. Its exactly what I do when I’m being indecisive

Title: Chapter 4: Camden Alley 28 Feb 2023
Reviewer: thegoldenfirebolt (Signed)
    Your diagrams are great for showing the flat and street layout. Snape having this kind of flat shows that he is a much more well adjusted adult than he is in the books

Title: Chapter 5: The Potions Apprentice 28 Feb 2023
Reviewer: thegoldenfirebolt (Signed)
    I like the haggling in this chapter, and I like each time you describe the mastery work with foraging or preparation of ingredients, its lovely world building

Title: Chapter 6: A Far Better Read 28 Feb 2023
Reviewer: thegoldenfirebolt (Signed)
    Poor Harry, what a week. I think its quite funny that snape thinks harry + family could go away on holiday, when nobody knows when he’s going to be picked up.
    The fixation on the rat spleens is funny too

Title: Chapter 7: Aconitum 28 Feb 2023
Reviewer: thegoldenfirebolt (Signed)
    I love throughout this book that snape keeps warning Harry about other apprentices, and Harry just trundles along making friends with everyone.
    Again, love the foraging and teaching

Title: Chapter 8: Preparations 28 Feb 2023
Reviewer: thegoldenfirebolt (Signed)
    Oh dear, Snapes half deliberate misinterpretations.
    I like the way you make it clear to the reader what snapes suspicions are, during harrys point of view based on what we know from snapes pov in other places. Its a clever technique

Title: Chapter 14: Illicit Activities 01 Mar 2023
Reviewer: thegoldenfirebolt (Signed)
    A good chapter, I love how Harry stays true to character through this. He knows there will be consequences from snape and umbridge, but still faces them in a very true to character way
