A slight twist to the usual deaging stories. What if the accident created a gas? What if it affected the entire class? How does Snape deal with fifteen toddlers?

    Are you going to finish this? Cause I love this story so much, and it's wonderful, and brilliant and fantastic. So are you going to finish?

After the final war, Harry has to make decisions about where he will go and who he will let into his life as he begins to reexamine his judgements about people. This story takes place at the end of the Seventh book, but before the Epilogue. SPOILERS for Deathly Hallows! Interaction with Snape is not in the first few chapters, but he will be a prominent firgure in this story.

    Okay. I'm really enjoying this story - I think it's a brilliant idea - but I do have one or two complaints.
    Firstly, given that she's suggesting her own sister should be Kissed, don't you think Andromeda Tonks is being a little heartless? I know we don't see much of her character in the books, but I can't help thinking that, given she's lost most of her family, she might be a little reluctant to have her sister killed/Kissed, even if they haven't spoken for years.
    Also, and this is just a nit-picking thing that comes from being British, we have streets. Not blocks. That's purely American.

When Severus adopted 6 year old Harry Potter, he vowed that Harry would never know the abuse he had suffered as a child. But what happens when Severus is attacked and falls into a coma and the Ministry decides to turn Harry over to his next of kin—Tobias Snape! Will Harry survive?

    Okay, this is completely random, but I liked that you spelled 'colour' the English way when it was for Harry's spelling.

    Author's Response: Thank you, I try to keep it as authentic as I can, but sometimes I'll make a mistake because I'm an American and don't know some details, but spelling I do know, since I'm a former English teacher. 

When Harry wakes one morning, he discovers a badly injured Snape in his living room, and tries to hide him. But Petunia discovers them and reveals a secret she has kept for thirteen years--one that will change the course of Harry's life forever, and Severus's as well. AU, pre-GOF.

    Okay, so I was all ready to whine and complain at you for using the term "report card" given that we don't have them in Britain. But you didn't use it in the actual chapter, so I'm happy again. ^-^

    I like Hedwig having babies! That's so cute! *Is happy*

    Author's Response: I loved making Hedwig have babies!  Out of curiosity what do you have instead? I'm a former teacher, and I've always wondered how school systems differ in other countries. Oh, and thanks as always for revewing!

Sometimes getting what you want is terrifying. Can Severus and Harry manage after the roller coaster that was first year?

Sequel to Reading the Signs.

    Oh this is lovely! Fantastic setup to what is already promising to be just as good as Reading The Signs.

    I liked Harry thinking the things in his room all belonged to Luka. That just says so much about his mental state. I also love this idea of him camping outside Severus's room. I can't wait to see where this is going!

    Author's Response: Thank you.  The first chapter is always so difficult to write, although made somewhat easier this time around because of all the background in RTS.  The camping outside Severus' room was the very first thought I had about this sequel, so I'm glad you liked it!

Snape punishes Harry for the debacle at the Shrieking Shack, and gets far more than he bargained for.

    Wow, your writing just gets visibly better and better with each chapter. It's brilliant.

    I'm really loving this story!! I don't really have anything constructive to say, I just thought I should really get around to reviewing after being lazy for the last eight chapters.

    Oh, it's 'berk' not 'birk'.

Locked in a cage for six years, Harry is found abused, neglected, and virtually wild by none other than Severus Snape. Will he ever become a normal child, or will six years of abuse prove to be too much for him.

    Wow. I'm really loving this. Words cannot describe, seriously. I loved the bit with Harry doing the same grimace as Snape after taking the potion. That was just too cute for words. Ah. *Is happy*

    However, I did notice several mistakes, typos mainly. Also, at points Snape's language got quite OOC. I think maybe you should get a beta reader, just to look it over for things like this. I'd be happy to offer my services (I literally have nothing else to do, so things would get back to you very speedily)

    Oh! Just remembered, I really liked the idea of Harry reacting to the word "bad", even when he was being praised. I thought that was very clever, not to mention extremely realistic. All in all, you've got the makings of one hell of a good story here, and I can't wait for the next chapter!

    Author's Response:

    You would beta for me? That'd be great. I have a beta for my other story but I feel bad signing any one beta up for two stories at once because my characters are very different in my stories and in general it's different... Plus I like to have different kinds of feedback, if you know what I mean. Different betas kind of have different beta-ing personalities. I think that helps me grow as a writer. I was thinking about doing this one w/out a beta just so I could get it in quick, but I have gotten a couple of hints about typos and the sort, and I like to have some feedback on the material before I submit it. Plus it's nice to have an actual conversation about where I'm going with it. If you're still interested shoot me an email at writersblock @ rocketmail . com (nix the spaces, of course).

     

    As for the rest of your review, I'm glad you liked the plot line, and yeah, I think Harry's a cutie, too. I liked the idea of him reacting to the word because it showed that he had at least a basic understanding of words having a meaning to them, which means that he's more developed than a lot of case studies in his situation (yes, I actually studied this first... I'm obviously  not going to follow the case studies to a T, but as my english teacher said "If you know the rules, then you have an intent when you break them") lol. plus I thought it was kind of cute. Thanks for the review!


As the clock strikes midnight on Harry Potter's fourteenth birthday, the reflection of a strange boy appears in Harry's window. What unusual news does he bring? And why does this stranger appear to be none other than Harry himself?

    Ooh, who's coming? Sirius and Remus? I don't know. But I am really enjoying this story. Although, it was kinda creepy, because the first chapter I read and went "Hey! This is MY story!" I wrote a oneshot that started a lot like this, called Reflection, it was a little weird. But it deviated so wildly that I've decided it was probably just a fluke, and not to accuse you of plagiarism. Unless, of course, you don't update soon, in which case I may have to rethink. Mwahaha!!

    Author's Response: Yep - poor Sev, that was very mean of me! After you mentioned your story, I had to go and look it up. It's really shocking how similar the beginnings are! I swear that I hadn't heard of your story beforehand (though it's really good and captivating!) My Shadow is definitely from the same universe as Harry... and I promise Dumbles will have explained it all by the end of the story. As for the next chapter, we shall have to see!

An inside-out and upside-down answer to the "First Impressions" challenge. A tale of many misconceptions, wishful thinking, best-laid plans and all that.

    I'm really enjoying this, but can you please use speech marks for when characters are talking? That's why they're called 'speech' marks. For use when speaking. It's really hard to read, and to know what's being said as part of the narrative or by a character.

    Author's Response: Thank you for your comment. The thing is, there are different types of speech marks (I know, some are far less appropriate),and the use of em-dash to indicate direct speech is so automatic with me when I type, that I just gave up and fought for consistency of using instead..Beauty is in the eye of the beer-holder, and all that. Were I to know it bothers anyone that much, I would not have choosen that course of action.

When Poppy has finally had enough, Hogwarts undergoes a drastic search and rescue procedure, and secrets are revealed. The aftermath finds Harry bare and exposed, and searching for something to hold.

    I really liked Ron in this. I thought he was sweet. He often gets a rough deal in fanfiction, but he was a good friend, and you really captured that. And this was a lovely little story, so thanks for writing it.
