I actually went and reset my password in order to leave you a review :) You mentioned how reviews keep you going and I don't think this wonderful story is getting enough visibility, and I just wish (hope) for you to keep writing.
I've been searching for a good female Harry story, and I love your writing style, especially including both POVs, and how you intersperse Snape's & Ariel's subconscious forcing its way into their conscious deliberations (especially when they don't want to/can't admit to/are scared of the truth). Also, a believable, bitter, angry Snape who curses like a sailor, with an incredibly dark sense of humor and biting sarcasm, is exactly how I think he would be if we were ever allowed a peek into his mind. I'm glad he's not losing his edge immediately with Ariel, and while it's heartbreaking to see Ariel's hopes get raised and dashed repeatedly, her struggle for his affection and his resistance (and his emotional damage) is so believable and you express it so well, it tugs on my heartstrings.
I love this chapter. "The Darkness", as Ariel calls it, is an awesome device and I cannot wait to see where it leads. I'm guessing it is Voldemort's remaining soul piece floating around... though Dumbledore's conviction that he can't get into the school is making me doubt. The insidious nature of it, stalking, and talking, to an 11 year old.... creeptastic. Can't wait for the next chapter!

Another chapter! Yay! I couldn't be more excited. Thanks so much for continuing this amazing story. It's my favorite at the moment, and I've probably reread it 3-4 times already. I love your characterization and how well you mix Snape's and Ariel's perspectives. It's just so well written. Cannot wait for the next installment. Poor Ariel, poor thing is losing it, understandably. Is the "darkness" aka Voldie, somehow connecting with the horcrux to bring about this anger and lack of control? Eep.
