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)

- Such a beautiful and passionate chapter, and a fitting song. I love your writing and await your next!
Author's Response: Gawww... Thanks. Honestly, although it's been harder for me to sit for any length of time and write (thanks to the hubby's injury), I honestly feel like these characters write themselves. But thank you so much!! I promise the next chapter will be up soon!

- I'm glad Snape has a love interest, it helps explore the potential the character had for love and other emotions that were hidden in the canon.... Loved the chapter, and loving the story by the way
Author's Response: Thank you SO, SO much!!! I've gotten some backlash for making him non-canon, but I'm like you and like to explore what could have been. After all, the poor guy deserves it after everything he sacrificed!! Thank you for the review. :)

- BAMF Snape ! Great chapter, I suspect the Malfoys will soon get a change of heart}
Author's Response: I had to look up what 'BAMF' meant, and I had to admit, I laughed. You nailed it - Snape is totally a BAMF!! And yes, I have a feeling you may be right about the Malfoys... ;) Thank you for the review!

- I love the subtle humor you put when Lily tried the wands, it was hilarious, as was the apparating in front of the Weasleys.... I wonder what Hermione will think when Brad Pitt shows up with two red heads, and the kid from free willy
Author's Response: Lol, thank you!! Not gonna lie: I put the whole Brad Pitt and kid from "Free Willy" thing in there just to amuse myself. But I'm glad I did!! I think this opens up an entire new level of pranks for the twins, don't you? MUHAHAHA!! Should be fun! ;) Thank you so much for the review!!
