the Black Cat
Slytherin!
Dumbledore has requested Snape retrieve something valuable for the Order and stop Voldemort from getting his hands on it. Unfortunately Snape is also required to take Harry as they need a Parselmouth. Along the way, both learn more about each other and Snape's ideas and assumptions are proven incorrect.

- I love this kind of fic!
I like when Harry is set up with Sirius and instead he should be with Severus ...
I read the story all at once (I was looking for new stories to read and so I decided to browse among the recently updated and I found it!) And I liked it a lot, even if I'm still not sure what happened with the stone ... does Dumbledore really have it? And if he does, how did the Aurors apparate inside Hogwarts?
[COMPLETE] After Harry blows up Aunt Marge and catches the Knight Bus to Diagonalley, he decides to take charge of his life when he learns he’s being sent back to Four Privet Drive. Harry spends the summer turning life in Diagonalley on its head, trying not to worry about the murderer Sirius Black, and attempting to avoid Severus Snape. In the midst of this he finds himself embroiled in an intense legal battle against Albus Dumbledore to decide his future. For the first time his fate rests solely in his own hands, and depend on the decisions he finds himself being forced to make. Harry wishes he could just be a thirteen year old boy, and begins to wonder if he’ll ever have the childhood he desires the most. Some of the warnings listed just as a precaution for things mentioned or alluded to.

- Usually I apparate on this site when you posting something, because I really love your fics, but I've loose this story until now and... IT'S WONDERFUL!
Your fics had ever original ideas, but this story is now at the top of my favorites toghether 'Among Gemini Trees'!
I also really like the fact that you leave the stories in suspense, sometimes even for a long time, but then you come back to update them when the readers lose hope ... but I like wait ... I waited years for Rowling's books and I can wait even for the chapters of your fics!

- During the whole trial I gnawed my nails for anxiety ... the result was obvious, I think, but it's right for adult people.
I like this Dumbledore who is not evil or manipulative while I am still a bit uncertain about Severus, but I hope he gets better in the next chapters.

- I don't think it's a problem that Dumbledore is much more present in Harry's life: actually I really like to see that, for once, Dumbledore isn't manipulative or evil.
This chapter gave me that sense of anxiety that I often felt in your other stories (and for me it means that development is taking shape) and among the secondary characters I have to say that I am very curious about Bellamy.
I look forward to the next chapter ... but I'm also waiting for Among the Gemini Trees ...
Harry, Ron and Hermione feel really bad about accusing Snape of trying to steal the stone this year. So they're determined to get better at potions next year to make it up to him. (And maybe find out that this potions thing isn't too bad after all...?)

- Now I'm curious! Will Harry become good at potions or is he a hopeless case?
Author's Response: Let's all pray for Harry and Ron's quest to not fail Snape's potions class harder than they already are...

- I don't know... maybe I hope Harry go to home, maybe not... I'm really unsettled...
Author's Response: Yes, hopefully he gets home safe and sound. Thanks for the review :)!
Severus Snape never wanted to be an Animagus and the only upside to his utterly useless animagus form is that he gets to tell Albus Dumbledore "I told you so."
However, when Harry Potter foolishly ingests a confectionary offered to him by Fred Weasley, Severus has to employ any and all means at his disposal to avert a disaster.

- OMG! I love 'Severus the black rooster'! It's so hilarious and so cute! (but not tell him!)
Author's Response: Thanks! Oh, he would be furious if he knew you called him cute. I'd better not tell him!

- So the antidote still left Harry in part chick? (I would have loved if he took that potion... see him follow Snape around like a chick...) Or is he just a little smarter than usual? I can not wait to read the following!
Author's Response: That remains to be seen...

- I understand that the story must go on but ... I can't wait to see more interactions between Snape and Harry!
I like how you integrated elements of various books, such as the turner or the animagus shapes in this plot.
Author's Response: Thank you! No worries, there'll be more Snape and Harry interactions in chapter nine. I just updated. :) I've always figured that if there are timeturners and Hermione can get one, then Dumbledore certainly has one. It would explain why he knows almost everything.
