- -Your story has many interesting points and ideas, such as the (alleged) leukemia of Dudley and Harry vs. the Half-Blood Prince.
-The language and action is very good, though I think the organization/pacing of some previous chapters can be improved.
-The grammar issue I'm noticing the most is the constant jump between past and present tense.
Do you still need a beta?
Author's Response: Yes, are you interested?
During the 19th century London, Harry Potter falls down the chimney of the apothecary of one Professor Severus Snape; bringing with him dire inconveniences.
But not every family is found in blood, and not every story follows the same path. For Harry, Snape and Draco, the truth has never been harsher.

- Oh, yes!
This is shaping up to look awesome.
I love the images evoked here. It's perfect - a good piece of historical fiction combined with beloved characters.
Looking forward!
Author's Response: Thank you so much! And really? I assumed the historical part would surely be inaccurate, but I'm glad that you like it! I hope the next chapters don't disappoint!
Harry and Dudley are attacked one evening, and Snape is called to fix it. A child sized Harry, who looks much more like Lily than James at this age, was not what he was expecting.

- Very well written story, with lots of action and angst. Sirius turning into a dog at his emotional limit is quite cute ;)
And poor Harry! No safe place for him anywhere...
Author's Response: Ahhhh!!! I'm so pleased you think so! I feel like Sirius would have a knee-jerk Padfoot reaction to the really large and difficult emotions! Poor small bean! He deserves some blankets and tea while someone makes a safe place for him!
Sequel to The Choices We Made.
With Voldemort dead and Harry's cancer settling life should be returning to normal for Harry and Snape but things aren't always as they seem. Instead they find themselves challenged in new ways. When dangerous events start after Harry's return to Hogwarts can Snape figure out what's going on before they're torn apart again? HPSS mentor Healing/Coping

| Title: Chapter 54: The Unspeakable | 23 Jul 2021 |
| Reviewer: Reticulated (Signed) |
- When you didn't update last week I was kind of afraid...
Nice scene with Christopher and his precision (and vagueness) about what he could say or not. I was picturing these silent wizards in black with great, hush-hush powers, but you made him seem so normal.
Looking forward!
Author's Response:
Glad to hear you're enjoying the story! I try to update weekly, but as the plot is getting more involved that may slow down a bit. I'm terrified I'm going to leave a key piece out on accident making the whole thing unsolvable, so I've been taking extra time to comb through the details/timeline with the plot.
Thanks for the feedback on Christopher! There was so little canon information to work from it was fun and a bit scary to get to make my own version of the Unspeakables.

- Thought I'd drop you a line - I'm really enjoying the sequel so far! So much action and angst. I read this chapter on my lunch break and I felt almost sacrilegious to go back and do something as mundane as work when Harry suffered a relapse...
I really appreciate all the specific medical details that you put in. It makes the story more real (and I like reading something that I don't yet about).
Just some thoughts:
What was the purpose of Hala Khatib's line about running? Also, if he would pushed off the chemo by a day, would it have put him in a worse situation medically?
Author's Response:
Thank you so much for the review and I'm happy to hear you're enjoying the story so far!
As for your questions about Hala, the running comment may or may not come back with an explanation. I don't want to give away any spoilers, but it sounds like you know my foreshadowing pretty well. Her comment about not moving his appointment had more to do with the ritual than the diagnosis of his relapse. To collect the clay under the full moon they only have 3 days (full moon is Tuesday) to make the arrangements, so it's already a tight schedule. Adding to the fact that Harry gets chemo at an outpatient clinic on a Saturday, moving it back "one day" would likely mean moving it 2 days (to Monday). What Hala saw was the fallout of him missing the first chance at the ritual and the cancer aggressively growing (aided by his magic) in the following month to the point where it couldn't be treated. It was a subtle mention in this chapter and gets a bit more prominently stated in the next.
Hope that helps clear up some things! Thank you again!

- Had to stop by once more and tell you how much I'm enjoying the sequel! I also love the medical aspect, keep that rolling...
I really feel bad for Snape, with all the troublesome things constantly falling on his head - didn't he break yet, the poor thing?

- Glad to see you're back! And... another round of challenges for the poor heroes.
What's the deal/significance with the creaking?
Author's Response: Thank you! The creaking has no real significance other than messing with Snape on trying to find the source of it, which we found out in this chapter.
Following the disasterous Third Task, Harry begins to notice two things about himself. First: his appearence has begun to change. Second: something is very very wrong. The Cruciatus shouldn't continue to be causing him pain this far out from having received it, should it?

- So the fun starts! Just a thought - will the super-toxic quantity of Fulgur will aid his Shervil's? (same treatment then to the Longbottoms) Must go back and review previous chapters...
Keep 'em coming!
