Ravenclaw!
Left with partial paralysis after being tortured by Voldemort, Severus is sent to Bell Point, a secure location on the seaside owned by the Order of the Phoenix. However, he is not the only one who will be there, for Harry, refusing to express his emotions regarding Sirius’ death, has unknowingly invoked an ancient kind of magic that will force him to deal with them. Deaged to four years old, he has to contend with a bitter and broken Snape, who, like Harry, is being forced to live in a body that does not work the way it used to. These two vastly different people have beat the odds many times over, and somehow prevailed in a world that has tried time and time again to destroy them. But the challenges they now face are nothing like they’ve ever seen before. Will they rise to the occasion, or become prisoners within themselves?

- To quote a favourite character of mine: "Didn't know that tackling suspects is such good physio." Well, apparently that applies for tackling stairs as well. Can't say how much I loved that scene upstairs!! And the fact that Sev saw exactly that in Buttons what Harry was afraid to admit to him. It's brilliant how their thoughts invariable cross sometimes.
Oh, oh, oh, I have the feeling that Hermione's house got attacked. Uuh.
Damn. Anyway, that scene was written very well. Building the thrill and bad feeling ... and such contrast between the soft nature and that lingering suspicion that something will happen.
Lovely, all of the chap.
Your Melfis.
Author's Response: Thanks so much for the lengthy review! Haha, that is a great quote! It is great to hear that you have enjoyed the parallels between Harry's and Snape's thoughts; I've worked hard to create some similarities in their thinking, and keeping it fairly subtle. I am glad you liked the scene with Hermione, despite the tension. Cheers!

- *sigh happily* I know, not the most appropriate reaction after reading that poor Hermione's parent's died but I won't ever stop being amazed at how you manage to write all those cute scenes!
It's not only that, it's the fact that it's never too much, never out of character... well, what you write feels simply right. Err, sorry for rambling.
The whole comforting scene from Snape scolding Dumbledore onwards was simply amazing. I liked the part especially where Severus fetched Harry from outside because he managed to without actually taking him. Just by the sound of his voice and his words. The fire lighting was brilliant, too, a good idea at how to take the shock from them... Oh and then falling asleep together.
I realise I'm still rambling but there are so many impressions right now.
To make it short: I greatly enjoyed the chapter!! Have a nice week, your Melfis.
Author's Response: Haha, I love when reviewers ramble a little! Often in rambling I get to hear what people like and don't like. I am very glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for your review!

- Wheeew, after 3 month of learning for and actually doing end of uni exams I'm finally able to review again. Anyway, your story kept me happy and waiting all those weeks, so here's the review:
Harry playing in the mud was just plain adorable!! You described it in such a realistic detailed way that I could nearly feel it. And oh, Hermione and Severus were so cute in this chap. Poor Hermy didn't know what hit her. Severus is mellowing ever more and I like it, like it very much, because you preserve his general character no matter how much he changes.
Loved it!! Your Melfis.
Author's Response: Glad to hear you've finally finished up with all the craziness of exams! I feel your pain. Just got done mine a week or so ago. I am pleased to hear that you feel I have preserved Snape's character despite the changes! That was one of my biggest worries for this story, so thank you so much for commenting on that. Great to heard you liked Hermione too. Thanks for the review!
| Title: Chapter 18: Photographs | 09 May 2013 |
| Reviewer: SnapesYukuai (Signed) |
- A truly wonderful chapter. Although I'm a "as much as possible Harry Snape interaction" fan normally, I greatly enjoyed this. You simply have a way of spotting character's chemistry be it Harry and Snape or any of the others.
It was a nice way to bring Hermione and Severus nearer and tell tales of past times as well.
Brilliantly done! Longing for next week and a new chap, your Melfis.
Author's Response: Thank you for the kind words! I am glad you are enjoying the chemistry between the characters. It's not always easy, that's for sure. Thanks so much for reviewing!
Set at the end of third year. Severus overhears Harry by chance on his final patrol before the summer and begins to suspect that the Gryffindor's home life isn't as idyllic as he assumed. Twelve years ago, he made a promise to protect him, and he intends to keep it.

- Hi there, so far I enjoyed your story very much and I am overjoyed (and quite impressed) that you wrote so many chapters in such a short time! I really loved the conversation over chess!! You did such an amazing job with intertwining both topics that I was simply gobsmacked. Simply and utterly loved it just as I do love your story on a whole!!
Your Melfis.
After a tragedy, Harry's unwelcoming and abusive childhood at the Dursley's comes to light to the most unlikely person during an occlumency lesson.

- Wow, what a wonderful story!! I've read it on ff.net a long time ago and I've read it now and I can only say: What a brilliant story!! You have a unique style of writing that I like very much and I am impressed that you managed to make this such a thrilling, 'feelable' story although the style of narration was quite introspective. You really matched their feeling and characters to a T!! Well, you are not the only one who is glad that you finally have an account here, for if you hadn't I would not have had the chance to read your ff again. ^____^
The Dursley family move house, and Harry is horrified to find that they are now living opposite his most hated Potions Master. Between Snape and the Dursleys, will Harry make it to the Burrow in one piece?

- Oh, pleeeaase, update quickly!! I absolute loce stories where Harry and Snape are neighbours but there are so few. The setting is great and the facto that Harry is Welle like by the neighbourhood is brilliant. I can't wait to read your next update. Lovely way of making Harry and Snape meet. ^.^
Harry needs some fatherly advice. Or maybe a swift kick in the ass.

- What a brilliant, wonderful story!! I loved the lively way of their thoughts.... and Severus... Severus and Harry had the greatest scene of all. That they were just as or even a little more damaged than everyone else made them so realistic and lovely and gave their interaction a whole new depth. Simply loved it!!

When Severus overhears a wish Harry has, he starts to wonder why such a simple wish hasn’t already been granted. He also begins to wonder what Harry has been hiding and finds himself surprised at why Harry has lied to him. A one shot.

- I loved this start to finish and after all they have been through what you call a 'sappy' ending made me swallow around a biiig lump and it also made me smile and feel warm and happy inside. Thank you for this wonderful Story!!!
Harry would do anything to not go back to the Dursleys. Even if it meant giving Snape a chance. So, with a shred of hope inside his heart, he approaches Snape with a special letter.

- Oh my God, I loved this! It's been a while since I read a hp fanfic but, oh, this was so good! The build up of tension, the feelings and authenticity of it.
I liked how you made them make up to a degree, how you jade them change the slightest but without degorming their character and yet making a world of difference.
Oh, and the scene with that little girl was just precious, as much as Snape's tentative attempt at comfort after Harry has shown his back. Oh, and before I forget: Harry's plea, if he would save any child. Oh my, this nearly made me cry. So good!
Great work, thank you!!
